Chapter 649


    Gabriel’s earlier arrogance hadpletely vanished, and in its ce was boundless fear.


    The situation had far surpassed his imagination. This was supposed to be an easy task but judging by


    the current situation, Shirley had no need to fear him anymore.


    He should be the one fearing her now.


    Shirley was disgusted by the sight of Gabriel. This was the man who imed to be a king earlier. But


    now, he was kneeling on


    There was a saying, “There is nothing permanent except change.”


    “Sigh!” Shirley shook her head and let out a long sigh, feeling emotional


    On the other hand, Gabriel was trembling like a leat. Large droplets of sweat streamed down his face


    and tears were continuously flowing from his eyes.


    Noticing that Adrian was quiet, he continued to beg for mercy. “Sir, I’ve truly realized that I was wrong. I


    was too rash in handling this matter today. Please spare me, sir!”


    Gabriel burst into tears. His subordinates had already backed out of the room in the meantime. No one


    had the courage to


    offend War Legate Draco.


    Meanwhile, Adrian said, “Mr. Gabriel, it’s useless for you to beg me. You scared the girl so much that


    she almost wet herself earlier. You should be begging her instead. If she’s willing to forgive you, you


    may live.”


    Adrian simply acted as Shirley’s backer.


    Shirley grunted and raised a beautiful eyebrow upon hearing Adrian’s remark.


    Gabriel hastily bowed to Shirley. “I was wrong, Ms. Shirley. I was wrong. Please, Ms. Shirley.”


    Shirley felt liberated. She chuckled and said, “Weren’t you full of yourself earlier? You addressed


    yourself as king. Why are you turning into a coward now?”


    Gabriel was embarrassed. The most terrifying thing that could happen to a person in this world was to


    be discredited, and it was clear that he was going through this right now.

    “I was wrong,” Gabriel said.


    “Call me ‘mommy.” Shirley beckoned him


    Gabriel’s expression changed drastically. He was more than forty years old and his children were


    almost Shirley’s age. Yet, be was being asked to address a woman the same age as his children as


    “mommy?”


    “Uh.” Gabriel was taken aback.


    Shirley said in puzzlement, “Huh? Are you reluctant to do it, Mr. Gabriel? Or am I not qualified to be


    your money?”


    Gabriel’s expression was unpleasant as he squeaked in embarrassment, “Mommy!”


    “Yikes, good boy. However, I don’t have any candy for you today. I’ll bring you one next time,” Shirley


    said while giggling with her mouth covered.


    Shirley turned her head and looked toward Adrian. “Sir, you may decide what to do to this man.”


    As soon as Shirley’s voice faded, Gabriel looked at Adrian with teary eyes. He had no idea what sort of


    fatey in wait for him.


    Adrian sat upright on the bed.


    Gabriel said, “Sir, I’m the nephew of Chase’s brother-inw, Chase is from Novemton’s Internal Affairs.


    Will you please let me out of respect for Chase? We’re all serving the country. Even though Internal


    Affairs and Wyvern Peak are divided, we’re


    still sort of colleagues, right?”


    “|— ”


    Gabriel wanted to add something else but Adrian interrupted him


    “Chase holds a high position in Internal Affairs and he reigns over countless people. He’s a powerful


    force of his own indeed. However, do you think that I have any respect for him?” Adrian asked.


    “Uh..” Gabriel was shocked
