Chapter 118


    Adrian picked up the call. “Yes?”


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    “Sir, we spotted some Luposians in Southrive today. I secretly looked into them and I specte that


    they’re assassins sent by Luposia,” said Daniel.


    “How many?” asked Adrian.


    Daniel said, “As of this moment, I’m not too sure. I’m still investigating. Lucas won’t be in Swallowston


    for the next two days so my advice is to keep a close watch over your wife, sir.”


    Luposia had always been hostile against Navia. They had lost quite many people in the incessant wars


    over the past two years. It was highly usible that they would send assassins to Southrive.


    As for their motive, Daniel was still trying to figure out if they were sent to assassinate Adrian or Lucas.


    Adrian said, “Noted. Continue your investigation and notify me immediately if there are any updates.”


    “Yes, sir.” Daniel hung up the call upon saying that.


    Meanwhile, Samantha walked out of the bathroom wearing a pale blue–colored nightgown and asked


    in puzzlement, “Who were you talking to on the phone? What do you mean ‘notify you immediately if


    there are any updates?”


    “What do you mean?”


    Adrian was startled by Samantha’s sudden questioning and hastily answered, “A friend of mine told me


    there will be a raffle event happening in a newly–opened mall near South Street. I told him to notify me


    immediately when the mall opens.”


    Samantha paid little attention to his exnation and said, “Okay, it’s gettingte. I’m going to bed. You


    should too.”


    Adrian nodded


    Samantha was kept busy over the next few days.


    She began searching for a location for the newpany and was joined by ra and the others. In the


    end, she chose to set up thepany near Swallowston’s South Business Street.


    This ce used to be an electronicpany but it had already gone out of business. The building was


    up


    for lease.


    Samantha discussed this with ra and the rest before they decided on this location.


    Soon after, Samantha, ra, and the others went their separate ways to begin the renovation process.


    Samantha was tasked with thepany’s business registration.


    Riley received a call from Samantha to check on thepany’s location and Riley gave some opinions


    on the renovation.


    Within a few short days, Samantha’spany was registered and thepany was officially named


    New Paralso.”


    Samantha was so upied thest few days that she did not even have the time to eat.


    –


    She was busy with thepany’s affairs and Adrian could not offer much help. Hence, he spent the


    next few days monitoring the construction workers on the renovation works.


    On the afternoon of the third day, Mandy sent over a set of perfect office tables, chairs, sofas, lighting,


    and other office necessities from Swallowston Bank. This saved Samantha a huge chunk in


    expenditures.


    She was extremely grateful for Mandy’s help.


    Meanwhile, on the same afternoon, Samantha was in a meeting with ra, Riley, and the others in


    New Paraiso when all of a sudden, a Porsche SUV drove into thepany’spound with a few


    trucks in tow. This drew Samantha’s attention.


    She quickly headed downstairs and arrived at the ground level of the building.


    The door of the Porsche opened and a few middle–aged men got out of the car..


    “Ms. Samantha,” greeted the leading middle–aged man as he smiled at her.


    “Sorry, but may I know who you gentlemen are?” Samantha asked in puzzlement.


    The middle–aged man said, “We’re from Nine Kings. Our employer, Mr. Liam, heard that you’re


    opening at newpany so he has sent over two thousandputers, Ms. Samantha


    “Please sign to acknowledge the receipt so we can inform him of the sessful delivery when we get


    back.”
