Leonard became enraged when he saw how adamant Riley was. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

He became so infuriated with his daughter that he desperately wanted to walk up to her and give her a slap.

However, before he could act on his thoughts, Adrian finished reading the documents before him and raised his head. Looking at Jaden, he said, “You’re Jaden Rivers, correct? Answer me this. What kind of status do you think the Rivers hold in Southrive at the moment?”.

Adrian put down the documents and prepared himself for a major discussion with Jaden.

Not expecting Adrian to ask such a thing, Jaden laughed and said, “Is that even a valid question? The Rivers are the most powerful family in Southrive right now. My grandfather can not only bring about huge changes to the place, but he can even cause its economy to tremble with a single word.

“The Rivers are considered to be a large family, with my relatives spread across all of Southrive. All it would take is a single order and we can instantly become the face of Southrive’s business economy.

“So, to answer your question, the Rivers are invincible.”

There was an abundance of people in the River family. In fact, there were even rumors that they were able to control a man’s life and death.

Yet, Adrian seemed extremely surprised, not expecting there to actually be someone that confident in himself in this world.

‘I suppose self–confidence is a merit.”

At that thought, Adrian complimented Jaden by saying, “I’m sure you’ll be able to rule over all of Southrive with such extraordinary thinking despite your young age!”

Jaden’s lips curled.

“Are you mocking me, you little b*stard child?” Jaden asked with a smile.

“B*stard? Why would you call me that?” Adrian seemed rather surprised.

‘Since when have I been a b’stard?!

With a cold sneer, Jaden said, “Of course, I have my grounds for saying that. You’re Henry’s son, who died a long time ago. 1 refuse to believe your mother remained a widow for so long without ever trying to find you a stepfather.

“So, it’s only logical for me to call you b*stard, isn’t it? Haha!”

Jaden started laughing

“You’re the one who’s a f*cking b*stard, Jaden! Your entire family is filled with b*stards!” Riley was extremely furious when she heard Jaden insulting Adrian.

Jaden’s expression instantly changed into that of fury when he heard this.

Leonard saw the change in atmosphere and hurriedly said, “Shut up, Riley! One more word from you and I’m going to smack you!

Riley took a deep breath and her fists clenched in tight lists. She could not handle seeing Jaden’s arrogant and pompous attitude both in his expression and in his words. She was having such a hard time tolerating him that she wanted to beat him up.

It was exactly Jaden’s overbearing attitude that made him think he was invincible and above all others.

Adrian pulled Riley back toward him before he smiled and said, “It looks like Mr. Jaden’s got some deeply grounded analysis for calling me ab*stard. Bravo!”

“Hahaha Jaden laughed and said, “You f*cking b*stard. You seem rather pleased with this title. So tell me, what brings you here today?”

Adrian smiled, “I’m only here for one thing.”

“And what would that be?”

“Your life,”

“My life?” Jaden looked slightly startled as he pointed to himself.

Adrian nodded. “Yes, I’m here to kill you.”

“Pfft…” Jaden laughed. “You’re going to f*cking kill me? Now that’s a hoot.

“Do you have any idea who I am? Aren’t you worried that your words might be the very thing that kills you?

“Tell me something, What do you think will happen to you if you fail to kill me?” Jaden asked.

“What do you think?” Adrian aslord back Spin to Claim Your Surprise Reward!
