The Return of the War Legate

Chapter 247

She then continued, “The research team won’t pan out if Kendall refuses to join us. There are just some things we can’t work out.”

Adrian asked, ‘What did Danton say?”

Samantha replied, “He suggested we visit him again after a few days. There’s a chance he might know about something unspeakable about what happened that year.”

‘Since Kendall was a very important person in the previous research team, it should only be logical that he knows very well what happened at the time.”

At that thought, Adrian decided he should make a trip down there himself.

Swallowston was once again shrouded in darkness, with bright lights filling the streets, making the city really beautiful.

Adrian drove Samantha’s car toward Swallowston High.

When he arrived at the teacher’s accommodations late that night, he saw a middle–aged man squatting at the rear campus field with a cigarette in his mouth. There were many cigarette butts on the floor.

This man was none other than Kendall Leaf.

It was obvious there were many scars on his arm, and they looked terrifying.

In fact, Kendall would have his arms fully covered when he was outside.

It was only today when two people asked to see him that he realized whatever happened that year was not truly over,

At that moment, Kendall heard a voice say in his direction, “The scars you have were caused by a virus, but I know someone from the medical world who might be able to help you.”

Kendall turned his head slightly and saw that a young man was leaning against a tree not far away from him.

“Who are you?”

“My name’s Adrian. I’m Henry Xander’s son.”

Adrian walked over to Kendall after saying this.

Kendal took another deep drag of his cigarette before saying, “So, you’re Adrian… I didn’t realize grown so much already. you had

“Your wife came to see me today, and I’m going to tell you the same thing I said to her–stay out of my life.”

Adrian smiled and sat down next to Kendall. He then took out a box of cigarettes before handing a stick to Kendall.

Adrian lit himself one and sald, “I do have some recollection of you. Father used to call you Ken, and I vaguely remember you carrying me in your arms a couple of times.”

Kendall said, “That’s all in the past now.”

Adrian shook his head. “It may be for you, but it’s still fresh in my memories to this day.” 212This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

“What are you trying to say?” Kendall asked.

“Richie’s been killed, and Mr. V Shaw has yet to reveal himself. You know about this, don’t you?” Adrian asked.

The execution of Dream City’s boss had sent ripples throughout Southrive, so it was only natural that Kendall had heard about it.

It was exactly because of this incident that he knew things were not over.

He took a long breath before saying, “I had nothing to do with your father’s death. Feel free to investigate me. I just hope you’ll stay away from me and let me live out the rest of my life in peace.”

“That’s not what I came here for. I heard you chose to remain a bachelor ever since the scientific research team was disbanded,

“Those scars you have came from nowhere, but I’m guessing there’s a story behind them, right?”
