Adrian gave a slight shrug. “You’ve already investigated me thoroughly, haven’t you? So why bother asking questions you already know the answers to?”Harrison Archer let out a cold snort and slowly pulled open the drawer at his side. “Young man, I’m being courteous to you for now, so you’d better answer me properly. My patience is limited. Otherwise, I can’t guarantee what I might do.”As he spoke, a custom-made silver handgun appeared in his hand, its muzzle leveled squarely at Adrian.A chill entered Adrian’s voice, and his brow furrowed faintly. “I don’t enjoy repeating myself. And what I hate most is having a piece of scrap metal aimed at my head. You people really do love testing the limits of my patience.”Harrison Archer sneered. “Big words for a boy in chains. In this world, the victor writes the rules and the loser suffers them. You’re in my hands now. If you know what’s good for you, you’ll cooperate and spare yourself unnecessary pain. Surely you understand that the moment

“Adrian, today is a joyful occasion—say a few words to everyone!”As the crowd ushered Adrian forward, Hunter White no longer had the face to remain and turned to leave at once.Hailey Grant came to her senses and hurried after him.“Darling, wait for me!”Hunter White held himself together until they reached the street. Then, no longer able to endure it, he spun around and struck her across the face with a savage backhand.“You wretched bitch! If it weren’t for you, would I have lost everything? Get the hell away from me! I never want to see you again!”The slap split Hailey Grant’s lip, blood seeping from the corner of her mouth. One of her high heels twisted under her, and she limped after him, crying out as she went.“Darling, don’t abandon me!”The scene became a source of amusement for passersby.“Thank you all for coming today to show your support. As for the Love and Charity Foundation, I can promise you this: everything will be open and transparent. Every single contribution
Chapter 409
After being belittled over and over again by Hailey Grant, the three old men were already seething with rage and could no longer hold back.“Where did this lunatic come from? The three of us are respected figures, whatever else may be said. Even the great names of Skyline City would have to invite us with proper courtesy, and yet you call us hired extras?”“She even said just now that I was some ragpicker and beggar!”“This is beyond insulting!”Their angry outburst happened to be overheard by Tabitha Grant, who had just come downstairs.“Three esteemed doctors, what happened to provoke such indignation?”Still glaring furiously at Hailey Grant, the three of them briefly recounted what had just taken place.Tabitha Grant’s expression turned cold at once. “Who are you, to come to our charity foundation and spout such nonsense? Any one of these three gentlemen could crush you with ease by virtue of who they are, and yet you dare mock them so brazenly?”Hailey Grant still had no grasp of

“Adrian! It’s actually you!” The hatred in Hailey Grant’s voice erupted without restraint.All the resentment, humiliation, and unwillingness she had bottled up over this period had finally found an outlet.Adrian frowned slightly. He had not expected to run into the person he least wanted to see here.“What are you doing here? Hailey Grant, it seems you truly can’t live without a man. Though I have to say, your taste keeps getting worse.”Hailey Grant shot a glance at Hunter White beside her, panic flickering across her face.In front of Hunter White, she had always presented herself as a pure and innocent woman. Her past with Adrian absolutely could not be exposed through his mouth.She could not afford to let the sugar daddy she had only just secured slip away as well.“You know each other?”Hunter White’s tiny, beady eyes shifted suspiciously back and forth between the two of them.Hailey Grant put on an aggrieved expression, clung to Hunter White’s arm, and said in a tearful voic

“That brat Adrian from the Novaland Republic—who knows how capable he really is, if he managed to defeat even Bloody Rose. My lord, the boy is too dangerous. Should we perhaps…”The hall master of Light of the Dark Realm, Blood Dragon, let out a scornful laugh. With a casual flick of his wrist, he tossed aside the dossier in his hand. A strange force gathered at once, and the temperature in the room rose sharply.The papers burst into flame on their own, eerie beyond belief.By the time they drifted to the floor, nothing remained but ash.“No wonder Loisa didn’t attend my banquet. So she went to the Novaland Republic to seek out that boy instead. His danger rating may have risen too quickly, but this is not yet the time for us to act. Send people to the Novaland Republic to investigate.Even if we do nothing ourselves, others will not be able to resist trying to take that boy’s life. When the mantis stalks the cicada, the oriole waits behind. Only then can we reap the greatest advanta
Chapter 406
The lingering force of the shells carried a searing heat that made everyone uneasy.Daisy clutched Iris Lloyd’s arm tightly and asked in alarm, “Why are there still shells? Adrian will be all right, won’t he?”The words had barely left her lips when the shells struck Adrian’s position with deadly precision.The explosion thundered for miles. Every pane of glass throughout the villa district shattered at once. Fortunately, the foundations were solid—not the kind of shoddy construction that would collapse at the first tremor.Though the ground shook violently, the buildings remained standing.As the dust slowly cleared, Cyber Brain adjusted the glasses on the bridge of his nose. The corner of his mouth had only just begun to lift when he suddenly felt the entire mech lurch violently.After a dizzying upheaval that sent him spinning through the air, Cyber Brain looked down in horror.Adrian—who should have been blasted to pieces by the shells—was standing on the ground completely unharme
