Chapter 377


    Adrian led Reiss to the Battle Warrior Department.


    “Here we are. You can go inside and ask someone for assistance. I have to go now. Take care!” Adrian


    said.


    “Okay, see youter,” Reiss replied with a smile.


    Adrian returned the smile.


    Suddenly, Reiss extended her small, fair hand to Adrian Without hesitation, he shook her hand


    As Reiss walked into the tower, Adrian picked up his phone and made a call “Hey Daniel, a girl named


    Reiss just went to the department. She’s Seth’s sister and is here to retrieve his ashes, Can you


    arrange for someone to provide her with a pass so that she can enter the funeral parlor?”


    “Got it,” Daniel replied.


    The arrangements were made swiftly, and once they were settled, Adrian went back to One Jewel


    Road. When he got home, Samantha was already back and was cooking with Joanna.


    Upon seeing Adrian, Joanna eximed, “Adrian, where have you been?”


    Joanna spoke in a huff while Samantha chuckled.


    Adrian grinned and said, “My apologies. I ran into an old ssmate on the way here and stopped to


    chat for a bit.”


    “An old ssmate? A man or a woman?” Joanna asked.


    “A woman,” Adrian replied without hesitation

    Joanna wore a disapproving look, wanting to scold Adrian for his newfound coldness, but Samantha


    intervened, “Enough, Jojo. Stop grilling him. Your interrogation is making him ufortable. In this day


    and age, who doesn’t have female ssmates?”


    “Fine. Your wife spoke up for you, so I’ll let you off the leash,” Joanna said as she shrugged her


    shoulders.


    The two women went back into the kitchen to continue their efforts. Samantha and Joanna were in a


    good mood today and insisted on coolong, Rue had some free time and sat on the sofa, watching TV.


    Adrian sat next to Rue and took out his phone. And on it were two numbers that Reiss had saved: one


    was Chuck’s and the


    other her own.


    Adrian cared deeply for Chuck. They had been close friends in the past, despite a brief falling out over


    a misunderstanding Adrian could not help but smile as he remembered how Chuck had brought roast


    chicken the next day to patch things up.


    Chuck used to say, “Our bond is strong. When you be sessful, you won’t leave your brother


    behind, will you?”


    Back then, Adrian had smiled in response, saying, “No matter what the future holds, you’ll always be


    my good brother!”


    Adrian hesitated as he held his phone, wondering whether to make the call or not. After much


    deliberation, he decided to punch the call button


    However, instead of hearing Chuck’s voice, he received a message saying that the number was no


    longer in service. Adrian tried several times but to no avail. Reiss had mentioned that Chuck’s phone


    had been out of service for two years.


    “Adrian, what’s wrong?” Rue asked, noticing Adrian making repeated phone calls.


    Adrian put down his phone and asked, “Mother, do you remember Chuck Wilson?


    “Chuck Wilson?” Rue was puzzled at first but then remembered. “Oh, is he the one who used toe


    over to our house often for dinner? His father was an engineer, right?”


    Back in high school, Chuck often came to Adrian’s house for dinner after school because he lived far


    away. At that time, Henry
