“She does.”
“Good.”
Rue nodded heavily. She behaved as if she was a different person at this very moment.
Rue stood up and took hold of Adrian’s hand. “Also, don’t let anybody else find out about this. You have so many enemies out there. If others were to know, they would certainly figure out a way to assassinate you like the Luposians attempted to do.
“Also, always remember that you’re the legate and that you carry the heavy responsibility of protecting our country, my son. Always take good care of your health so that you can perform more meritorious services
to Navia!”
Adrian nodded in agreement.
Rue chuckled and teared up a little. “When you were a child, your father used to worry about what you’ll do when you’re older. If your father was still here and learned that you’re the legate, he would’ve been
over the moon.
“Henry, Henry, you see this? Our son has made something of himself.”
With trembling footsteps, Rue made her way to Henry’s photo and said with a face full of tears, “Henry, our son is War Legate Draco. He’s the man who rules over everybody else.
“Do you know what being a war legate means? It means he’s the hope and future of our country. Can you see this from Heaven, Henry?”
Rue was still trying to recover from the surprise of learning about this
Adrian sat down and shook his head in frustration.
“Mother, it’s time for lunch,” Adrian said to her. Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
Rue hastily wiped her tears of joy. “All right, I’ll go make lunch now.”
She then rushed to the kitchen to prepare the meal.
Adrian continued to sit on the sofa, and it was not long before Samantha returned home too.
She found Adrian just sitting at home as soon as she entered. She asked casually, “When did you get back, dear?
Adrian raised his head and smiled. “Not long ago. How did it go? Have you settled everything?”
Samatha answered with an “mm–hm” and a smile as she sat down next to him.
“Paraiso is now our second largest branch company and we’ve managed to rehire a majority of the old employees.
“Adrian, I know that you’d be at home so I came to ask for a favor,” she said truthfully.
“Go ahead.”
Samantha pulled out a photo that she passed to Adrian. It was of a man a little over thirty years old.
Adrian looked at it and said in puzzlement, “Who’s this?”
Samantha replied, “This was a member of Henry’s research team. He knows about the research from back then very well. His name is Kendall Leaf and he’s a graduate of Southrive Medical University.
“Could you please ask Mr. Daniel if he can help look for this person? New Paraiso wishes to recruit him.”
Samantha had restarted Henry’s project. Hence, she needed to quickly recruit personnel for the research
team.
Adrian studied the photo for a while before he said, “Kendall Leaf, right? Sure, I’ll send the photo to Daniel. He should be able to find this person soon enough.”
Samantha beamed in joy and threw her arms around him. “Thank you, dear!”
As she thanked him, she gave Adrian a kiss on the cheek and her face turned a bright scarlet.
“I’m going to get changed.” Samantha fled in embarrassment.
Adrian took a photo of the photo and sent it to Daniel. He shot off an accompanying message.
“Please help me to look for this person’s current address.”
Daniel simply replied with the okay hand emoji.
A little while later, Samantha and Adrian sat down to lunch.
Daniel’s message came right after they were done.
“This person is living in Pane County that’s within Swallowton’s jurisdiction. He’s currently working as a high school teacher. This is his address”
A location was attached to the message.
