    Chapter 284


    Samantha and Adrian walked out of the hotel, the former feeling rather dejected.


    She had not expected Violet would be so grossly exaggerated in her actions that Violet would


    refuse to acknowledge her as a Cowell


    Samantha felt miserable,


    And after witnessing how Violet had handled the situation, Samantha was enlightened once again.


    Barry drove while Adrian sald to Samantha, “Let’s not lower ourselves to the level of these idiots.


    Forget it. You still have me


    Samantha nced at Adrian. He could easily put this down yet she could not bring herself to forget the


    incident so easily. She simply nodded and said, “Okay.”


    Adrian didment any further on the subject


    Samantha instructed Barry, “Take us to New Paraiso, I still have a lot of work to do.”


    ΤΗ


    “Yes, madarn!” Barry answered.


    However, It was at this exact moment that a reflective light was cast across Adrian’s face through the


    car’s window. This minute event made Adrian realize that something; irreversible was about to happen


    the next moment.


    Adrian scanned the ce using his peripheral vision. Then, he quickly said, “Barry, turn the car around.


    Head for the outskirts”


    ΤΗ


    Barry was stunned and slightly confused but he heeded the order. He immediately turned the car


    around and drove to Swallowston’s outskirts.


    “What’s going on, Adrian? The outskirts are filled with unmarked graves. Why are we going there?”


    Samantha asloed in


    puzzlement.


    Adrian did not respond. Instead, he asked Barry who was driving, “Did you notice anything unusual,


    Barry?”


    Harry shook his head and answered, “Everything looks normal to me, sir. Swallowston’s streets look no


    different than any other day. Why?”


    “Look to the rooftops of the buildings right ahead and see if there’s anything unusual,” Adrian said.


    Barry looked over, and so did the puzzled Samantha.


    However, she did not notice anything unusual. She asked, “What’s going on, Adrian?”


    Barry said, “I don’t see anything unusual either, sir.”


    Adrian said in a teaching manner, “As a soldier, you should learn to determine a situation in your


    surroundings under any circumstances, Barry. This is because an enemy will always be hiding in


    ces that you can’t see.


    Now, take another look and see if there’s anything unusual on the rooftop,” Adrian urged.

    Samantha and Barry took another nce upon liearing Adrian’s words. She said, “There’s nothing


    there. What did you see, Adrian?*


    “Look again!” Adrian repeated.


    Both of them continued to look. Suddenly, they noticed that something moved ever so slightly on the


    rooftop. However, they could not make out what it was due to the distance.


    “Is there someone on the rooftop, sir?”


    Adrian replied, “It’s the assassins from ck Hawlt”


    “ck Hawk? Isn’t that the renowned assassin organization from foreignnds? How did you notice


    them, sir? They’re hiding so well that I can’t see them clearly,” Barry said.


    “What? There’s nothing on the rooftop. Is it because my eyes are failing or that both of you are having


    issues with your eyesight?” Samantha furrowed her eyebrows and continued to stare at the rooftop


    Adrian narrowed his eyes and said, “The ck Hawks have a non-fatal weakness. They like to observe


    their surroundings while they lie in wait.


    “I noticed a reflective light earlier, and it came from the lens of a pair of binocrs. I observed and


    discovered that there are at least more than a hundred assassins lurking around this area,” Adrian said.


    Barry frowned.
