Chapter 544


    Adrian was walking backward ahead of Samantha, his front facing her.


    He felt rather puzzled upon hearing her question. “What son? How do you know that it’s a son in your


    belly? What if it’s a daughter?”


    Samantha rubbed her belly. “He’s in my belly so how can I not know his gender? I’m very confident that


    it’s a son. Would you


    “What are we betting on?” Adrian asked.


    Samantha thought about it and said, “If it’s a son, you’ll wash my clothes for the rest of your life. If it’s a


    daughter, I’ll wash yours. What do you think?”


    Adrian had the awareness to know that it was just clothes.


    Adrian said smilingly, “Let’s not bet. I’ll handle the task of washing your clothes for the rest of your life.”


    Samantha red at Adrian. “That sounds good. However, if I’m right about the baby being a son,


    what’re you going to name him?


    Adrian said without the slightest hesitation, “His name will be Neo Xander. If it’s a girl, you can name


    her.”


    “Neo Xander?” Samantha chuckled. “Look at you. You’ve already thought of a name early on huh?


    Otherwise, how could youe up with a name so quickly? And you say you don’t want a son. I can


    see that you value male children over female ones.”


    “That’s not it. That was the name given by my father,” Adrian said as he beamed.


    Samantha was puzzled


    “I’ll tell you the truth. We were already engaged before my father passed, remember? He told me


    before his passing to name our child ‘Neo Xander’ if we had one. I suppose because it means “new


    beginnings,” Adrian exined.

    Samantha thought for a while. “That’s a pretty good name. If it’s a son, we’ll name him Neo then.”


    “Time for breakfast, Sam!” Joanna’s call was hearding from uphill


    Adrian hastily propped Samantha up, “All right, let’s head home.”


    Both of them returned home and found that Rue had already prepared breakfast. Juno then walked out


    of her room and passed a piece of paper to Adrian.


    “Here’s the letter, Big Brother. It’s all done.”


    “So soon?” Adrian epted the letter.


    Joanna and Samantha gathered around. They were puzzled. “Juno, what’s that?”


    Joanna stretched out her hand to sn atch it away but Adrian quickly pocketed the letter.


    Joanna said, “What is it, Adrian? It’s not a love letter for some girl, right? That’s really bold of you to


    make Juno write it for you!”


    Adrian rolled his eyes at Joanna.


    Juno chuckled and said to Adrian, “Why don’t you read it? What if what I wrote isn’t good enough?


    Adrian replied, “I trust you.


    “All right, let’s eat!


    After breakfast, Adrian sent the letter to Nowenton


    Even though it appeared that the country had not undergone any changes, the major leaders of Internal


    Affairs in Novemton


    Chama 54


    had already gathered in Novemtom Hall and a special meeting targeting Wyvern Peak was being


    carried out.


    The moderator of the meeting was the monarch.


    “Everyone, I’ve already received the vote for Wyvem Peak. It seems that you are threatened by its


    existence.”


    The monarch sat in the head seat and took a nonchnt nce at the people at the scene.


    Chase said, “The country is at peace now. If we don’t eliminate Wyvern Peak, it will most certainly be a


    drawback for Internal Affairs. Wyvern Peak’s poprity in the country is at an all-time high now. Even


    War Legate Draco’s reputation has surpassed


    yours, Your Majesty.


    “Thus, Wyvern Peak must be dissolved. Otherwise, we’ll be ying with fire.”


    “That’s right. If Wyvern Peak continues to stand, we’ll need to channel arge sum of monry every year


    to sustain it. We can spend that money on other matters. It will be better than giving it to Wyvern Peak


    for nothing.”


    “You’re right. Even though Wyvern Peak has performed meritorious service to the country, the


    organization has been taking our resources for centuries. We’ll consider what we’ve given them as a


    small remuneration. If we were to let the legate go unchecked, his presence will threaten yours, Your


    Majesty.”


    Every department pleaded on behalf of the people.


    The monarch kept quiet for a while. Soon afterward, he raised his head and said, “This is a difficult


    situation. Since there’s no objection, I shall dispatch the order to hold a press conference at once. I’d


    like to personally announce the dismissal of Wyvern Peak”


    “Yes, Your Majesty!” Everyone answered.


    However, it was at this exact moment when an Internal Affairs employee walked into the room and


    said, “The legate issued a secret orderst night. Wyvern Peak was already dismissed before


    daybreak. There’s no one else left in Wyvern Hall!”
