The Return of the War Legate

Chapter 551

Joanna then shot a glare in Adrian’s way

Rue was extremely focused on wanting Juno to do well in school since she had always been a studious person. Hence, she haped June would not get distracted.

Hearing this, Adrian had no choice but to smile since he could not refute his mother.

On the other hand, Juno took his side and said, “I was the one who pestered Brother into teaching me, Mother.” Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Rue locked at Juno and replied, “Right now, you should be focusing on your studies, Juno. You’re going to be taking your university entrance exams soon, so you mustn’t do anything that might distract you from this. You need to work hard and do your best to get the best results possible.”

Juno nodded, and Rue turned toward Adrian once more. “No more teaching her how to fight from now on, understand?”

Adrian nodded, while Joanna and Samantha continued to observe the scene. After that, Rue headed downstairs to resume her cooking.

Joanna stuck her tongue out at Adrian and pulled a face, but was instantly shocked when Adrian raised his hands and hid behind Samantha.

Meanwhile, Samantha seemed to be deep in thought.

After the family was done having dinner, they each returned to their respective rooms. Adrian took a shower and came out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist.

Samantha was in a pair of pink pajamas. She sat on the bed and said, “Come here, dear. There’s something I need to ask you.”

Adrian sat down, looking at Samantha with a curious expression.

“Have you got something in mind that has to do with Juno? Earlier, you told Mya you already have a candidate for the next legate in mind. Is that person Juno?”

Adrian waved his hands helplessly. No doubt, Samantha could understand his thoughts without having to do much guesswork.

Just based on Juno’s brilliant deductive mind, she was an exceptional girl and a suitable choice.

“Did I guess it right?” Samantha asked.

Adrian leaned back into the bed and looked at Samantha through the corner of his eyes and said, “Looks lilor I can’t hide anything from you. But how did you figure it out?”

Hearing this, Samantha knew she had guessed right

“Juno’s a pretty smart girl and is able to demonstrate an exceptional amount of deductive reasoning despite her young age. Even I’m no match for her in this aspect.

‘She always comes

omes up with such mature:

very capable in the business world, but I know I stand zero

chance on the battlefield. After all, there’s no such thing as the perfect human.’

At that thought, Samantha probingly asked, “Hut she’s only just turned eighteen, plus she’s a girl. I doubt anyone would agree with your choice.”

“The best time in a person’s life is when they’re righteen to twenty-six years old. After that, our bodies start to degrade, and our physical capabilities, mobility, and thought processes start to slow down.

“Hence, this is the best time for Juno to grow. After all, is there anything that’s actually hupossible in this world?”

“You’re seriously considering it?” Samantha was extremely surprised, while Adrian merely smiled and remained silent.

“Mother will surely be against your plans. You have no idea how focused she is on Juno’s test results. She wants June to get into Southrive University really badly and would never agree to Juno becoming the legate.”
