Chapter 583

Adrian would not have dissolved Wyvern Peak if he could not stand losing

He would not have dismissed his own people if he had not considered that the country would be in chaos because of them. It was just that his actions were regarded as losing to Chase in the eyes of outsiders.

Mya wanted to say something but Adrian stopped her

He looked at Nadine and said, “Ms. Nadine, you may think that you’re right about everything but I’d like to remind you that there is also more than one side to a story. You’re in charge of Fowler, so I believe that you have better foresight than others.

“I don’t wish to discuss anything else with you today. I just want to find out who purchased the book Fowler Hause auctioned off in the past and what were the contents of that bonk”

Nadine shook her head. She exhaled a deep breath and sneered at Adrian. “Dream on, Legate. I won’t tell you that. You won’t be getting any answers out of me.”

In truth, Nadine was very curious about Adrian’s purpose in investigating this matter. However, she did not inquire further. She refused to help him in doing something that, in her opinion, went against Internal Affairs.

“You killed so many of my workers as soon as you got here. As the president of this place, do you think that I’d willingly agree to your request?” Nadine questioned.

“Nadine, do you know that the guards employed by Fowler House used to all our people on the battlefield in the outlands? It makes perfect sense for the legate to kill them,” Mya said to Nadine.

“So am I wrong for claiming that he can’t stand losing?” Nadine sneered. “We can’t change what happened on those battlefields because they were representing different factions. But now that they’ve retired from the battlefields, they’re only trying to get a job to support themselves. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“You carry your grudges beyond the battlefields, and that is why you can’t stand losing, Legate.”

“You will never understand this,” Mya retorted.

“I’m not planning on understanding either. This matter is completely unrelated to me. Don’t even think about trying to get an answer from me because I’m not fond of interacting with people who can’t stand losing.” Nadine vehemently refused.

Adrian kept quiet for a moment upon hearing Nadine’s conceited remark. After a while, he stood up and walked toward Nadine.

Nadine looked at Adrian with her crystal-clear eyes.

Adrian then raised his arm and slapped Nadine in the face. The impact of the slap sent her collapsing onto the sofa. She covered her face and had a forlorn expression on her face. This was the first time a man had ever hit her.

“Ms. Nadine!”

Fraser hastily rushed over upon seeing the situation. However, Adrian slapped him in the face and sent him flying before he could get close.

Nadine lay on the sofa holding her face and did not have the courage to sit up.

Adrian raised his leg and stepped on Nadine’s face while he said, “I’ve repeated myself three times today. This is going to be the last time. My patience is limited.

“Tell me about the book!”

Adrian spoke in a lone that was beyond all doubt that he would hurt her.

Lying on the sofa, Nadine trembled. She had never been humiliated like this by anyone. Countless men had been cumquered by her beauty in the past and numerous mure yearned to have her. Yet, there was actually one man in this world who would have the heart to step on her exquisite face.

Nadine was rather amused now that she thought about it. She found the muperous men who wanted her disgusting detested them.

On the contrary, she had mixed feelings as she was crushed under Adrian’s foot. She felt anger and hatred, but also happiness and anticipation. As a result, her temper was triggered and she was overwhelmed by a sense of defiance. “Go ahead and kill me.”
