Chapter 644


    Shirley answered, “I’m at home and am taking a shower. Would you like to join me, Legate? I’ll keep


    the door unlocked for you.”


    “Where’s your mother?” Adrian asked, ignoring Shirley’s question.


    “Don’t worry. Mother isn’t home. I’m all by myself here,” said Shirley.


    Adrian was rendered speechless. “I’m asking you where she is, not checking to see if you’re home


    alone.”


    Adrian ruined Shirley’s wonderful fantasy.


    h” and said, “Mother’s at the construction site-the same one I brought you to previously. Why?”


    Shirley answered with an


    Upon hearing this, Adrian hastily said, “I’m rushing over to your house right now. I’ll be there in roughly


    two hours. I’m going to give you two tasks now and you must do as I say.”


    Noticing that Adrian sounded rather off, Shirley said anxiously, “What’s going on?”


    He instructed, “Lock all the doors and windows of your house right now, and don’t open the door to


    anyone whoes knocking. Also, reach out to the residents of your residential area via text and


    make sure they’re aware of you at all times.”


    Shirley could feel the tense ambiance and said nervously, “I’m a scaredy cat, sir. Don’t scare me.


    What’s going on?”


    “If I’m not mistaken, Internal Affairs is on its way to capture you. I’ll send someone to your residential


    area at once but they’ll need some time to get there. You have to protect yourself for a bit.”


    “Why would they want to capture ine when I haven’t done anything wrong? All I did was watch some


    lewd videosst night. Is that against thew?” Shirley asked anxiously..


    “Stop spouting nonsense and do as I say,” Adrian said.


    Shirley answered with an “ah.”


    Then, Adrian continued, “Call your mother and tell her to leave the construction site. Have her head to


    a crowded mall and share her location with you. She is to walt there for my people to arrive.”


    “Oh…okay,” answered Shirley. She burst into tears as she asked again, “What the hell is going on?!”


    Adrian replied, “Internal Affairs is going to capture you and your mother in an attempt to find Kayn. So


    make sure that you don’t get caught by them. It’ll be difficult for you to leave once they have you


    captive. Do you understand?”


    “I understand. I’ll do as you said,” answered Shirley through her tears.


    Adrian hung up the call and tried to get to Southeast as quickly as possible. He immediately reached


    out to Mya and got her to notify Wyvern Peak’s members living in Southeast. They were to be divided


    into two teams with one looking for Christina and the other for Shirley.


    He drove to Southeast as fast as his car would take him. If Shirley and Christina were captured by


    Chase, he would have ess to Kayn. If the clues provided by Kayn were destroyed, it would be


    difficult to get another opportunity to overthrow Chase,

    Adrian furrowed his eyebrows and floored the elerator.


    Meanwhile, Shirley quickly got out of the shower after receiving Adrian’s call and hurriedly called her


    mother.


    Christina was directing the construction project in a safety helmet at the site when her phone rang. She


    answered, “Shirley, how many times have I told you not to call me when I’m working if you don’t have


    anything important? I can’t afford to be distracted while working on the project, okay?”


    “Something bad has happened, Mother. War Legate Draco called me earlier and told me that Internal


    Affairs ising to capture us. You have to find a crowded mall now and blend in with the crowd so


    they can’t find you,” Shirley said anxiously.


    “What?”


    Christina was rather shocked. Then, she turned her head and saw more than ten vehicles from Internal


    Affairs driving into the construction site.


    Shirley said from the other end of the line, “They’reing for us because they’re trying to locate


    Father. The legate wants you to share your location with me. They’ve already sent someone for us but


    they need time. Mother, do you understand?”


    “I understand. They’re here. Shirley, take good care of yourself,” Christina said.


    “Okay.”


    Christina hung up the call. She swiftly got into her car and drove away from the construction site.
