The Return of the War Legate

Chapter 240

Riley was stunned.

She felt as if she was in the middle of the world’s biggest joke.

If Leonard and Wilfred had found out that Adrian was War Legate Draco from the start, they would most certainly have worshiped him like he was a god.

However, they were utterly unaware of this fact, and hence, missed the best person that could have been a part of their lives.

Was that not ridiculous?

Riley smiled bitterly, shook her head, and walked out of the meeting room.

The same morning, Swallowston’s Paraiso was shut down by the Battle Warrior Department.

Then, word spread across the whole of Swallowston.

Jaden from Southrive’s River family had joined forces with Luposians and endangered Southrive. The Battle Warrior Department had already dealt with them. Luposia’s War Legate Hydra was killed by War Legate Draco in Paraiso’s office building.

Soon after, Southrive’s Battle Warrior Department set out to detain the Rivers and they were subjected to legal treatment.

Leonard and Wilfred of Southrive’s Xander family were sent to prison.

When this information spread across Swallowston, the whole of Southrive was shocked.

Afterward, the Battle Warrior Department shut the Xander Group’s and Paraiso’s gates. The two companies announced the temporary suspension of all their businesses.

Samantha soon learned about what happened and was immensely shocked.

Swallowston’s citizens were having a hard time calming down after the events that took place in quick succession over the rest of the day.

Samantha could not concentrate on her work. She spent her day sitting in New Paraiso’s office and made a few calls to Adrian who failed to pick up.

Samantha had no idea what transpired today and no idea what the future held for Paraiso.

By nightfall, after the dust settled, Swallowston’s citizens realized that Paraiso, which had been founded by Henry, was brought to its demise by the Xanders.

Paraiso became the focus of many people.

Late at night, Swallowston was lit by dazzling lights

Sixteen full hours had passed since Leonard and Wilfred were sent to prison while the Xander Group and Paraiso were shut down by the Battle Warrior Department.

In Xander Mansion, Harold was sitting on the sofa.

Cecilia and Faye’s crying voices could be heard coming from the living room.

Cedric and Jacob were sitting in the living room but they were not speaking.

The family fell apart when Leonard and Wilfred were suddenly sent to prison.

Even Harold had been caught by surprise. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Meanwhile, Riley walked into the house. The sound of her high heels clicking on the floor made the Xanders look up.

“Riley, your father is in prison,” Fresh tears streamed down Cecilia’s face upon seeing her daughter.

“I know.” Riley was very calm.

Cecilia was stunned ever so slightly by Riley’s remark.

Riley said, “I told you from the start that Jaden isn’t a good person, yet none of you would listen to me. So, do you regret not listening to me now that the situation has taken a turn for the worse?

“However, it’s already too late to regret anything now.”

Cecilia and Faye were shaking upon hearing Riley’s remark.

Harold was at a loss for what to do going to the hotel?

Riley said, “Grandfather, let me ask you this. Are you aware that Father and Uncle Wilfred tricked Sam into going Tell me the truth!”
