Chapter 233


    Jaden sneered and continued, “If you ask me, I’m afraid I’ll end up killing your entire family if you fail to


    kill me. I’ve been hoping to get my hands on both your wife and your little sister for a really long time.”


    Surprisingly, Adrian was not enraged when he heard this. Riley, on the other hand, was so infuriated


    that she desperately hoped to kill Jaden right where he was. Yet, Adrian stayed so calm that others


    seemed to have ignored his presence.


    How could he be so calm after hearing all that? Riley wondered.


    Riley chose not to say anything since Adrian did not seem the least bit angry. She wanted to see what


    Adrian was going to do next.


    “Didn’t you say you were going to kill me, b*stard? What’s stopping you?” Jaden asked once more


    when he saw Adrian remain silent.


    Once again, Adrian refused to answer his question. Instead, he turned to look at Riley. “What time is


    it?”


    Riley took a look at her watch and replied, “It’s almost eleven.”


    Hearing this, Adrian went back to being silent and ced a document over his face, looking like he was


    about to take a nap.


    Everyone became confused by his actions.


    Leonard and Wilfred exchanged looks, not understanding what Adrian had nned in his head.


    Jaden frowned as he was having a hard time getting a grasp on Adrian’s thought process. Unable to


    hold it in any longer, he yelled, “What the f*ck are you doing, b*stard? I haven’t got that much patience,


    so you’d bettere out and say whatever it is you have to say!”


    “I’m waiting for this top management person toe,” Adrian replied.


    ‘What? He’s been waiting for that guy this whole time?


    “He’s mad, isn’t he?” Wilfred said to Leonard.


    Leonard shook his head, unable to read the situation.


    Jaden was extremely surprised. “You’re waiting for my family’s top management to get here? Don’t you


    understand by now! how badly you’ll be tortured by him before he kills you?”


    Adrian remained silent and sat as he waited.


    Enraged, Jaden said, “Fine! Go ahead and wait. I’m going to call him and find out when he’s getting


    here.”


    With that, Jaden picked up his phone and dialed a number. “It’s Jaden. When will you be arriving?


    “What? You’re already outside? Excellent, excellent! Please escort War Legate Hydra up here.”


    After hanging up the phone, Jaden had a sinister look on his face as he said, “le’s here, h*stard. Let’s


    hope you don’t wet your pants when you see him.”


    Adrian merely smiled and said nothing


    At that moment, there were sounds of footsteps approaching, and the boardroom’s walkway was soon


    filled with them.


    After a while, the boardroom’s doors were opened, and a massively masculine middle–aged man in


    ck walked in with two of his subordinates. The bodyguards behind him entered and fanned out,


    taking their positions.


    Everyone within the boardroom stood up when the man entered, while Leonard and Wilfred failed to


    recognize who he was.

    On the other hand, Jaden was extremely excited. He hurried forward as he respectably said, “You’re


    here, sir.”


    If Barry were there, he would surely be able to identify the middle–aged man to be Hydra, the war


    legate who was at the Luxury Hotel that night.


    Most of them probably had no idea that Jaden, in targeting the Xanders, was trying to help Hydra. In


    fact, Paraiso was not going to be taken over by the Rivers, but by Hydra himself.
