Chapter 699
All the women red at Adrian with their big, bright eyes as if they despised him.
Adrian walked into the room and made a “calm down” hand gesture as he said, “Ladies, please take a
seat and listen to what I have to say.”
Upon hearing this, all the women spread out and sat everywhere including the bed, table, and
wardrobe. They filled up the space and stared at him, their long legs swinging in the air.
Ivy said, “You by the name of Draco, free us or kill us. What’s the point of imprisoning us here? Are we
supposed to be your pris?”
“Firstly, I’d like to emphasize that my name is not Draco. My name is Adrian. Adrian Xander,” he said as
he looked toward Ivy.
The women gasped in surprise.
Adrian smiled and said, “I empathize with what happened to you,dies. Hence, I’d like to befriend you,
but you haven’t given me the chance to do so. Let’s discuss that today, all right? I’d like to offer you my
support, and in exchange, you’ll work for me. What do you

think?!
“F*ck!” the wamen cussed collectively.
He was unbathered and continued smilingly, “You can set your mind at ease when you’re here because
I don’t bully women. So
“You don’t bully women huh? You beat up Ivy to that extent yesterday, and yet you im that you don’t
bully women?” admonished one of the women angrily.
“Special circumstances require special treatment,” Adrian said in a serious manner.
“you’re not a good man!” a few women taunted him.
The santle on Adrian’s face remained. He beckoned them to keep quiet then said, “We can resolve the
misunderstandings between us today. However, you should eat before we do that. Look at you. I’m
sure you’re all starving.”
As he spoke, he pped his hands together. de led a few other people into the room. They were
carrying trays of food. They ced the serving trays on the table.
de said, “Ladies, we took special care in preparing this meal for you. It’s very nourishing to one’s
body. Even the legate can’t bear to enjoy such a high–quality meal on usual days.
“God knows if the food is poisoned,” Eira sald.
“Why you…”
de was so furious that he wanted to hit someone while Eira red at him menacingly. He decidedly
pulled back his fist and
backed out of the roun.
Adrian pped and said smilingly, “All right,dies. Eat. And when you’re done, I have a surprise for
you, Eira Would you like that?”
Eira was stunned and asked, “What’s the surprise? Are you going to suck up to me by showering me
withvish gifts? I’ll have you know that we won’t be alive for much longer, Adrian. We’ll die if we leave
this ce, so if you don’t say the proper words today, we won’t let you go.”
Ivy, Eira, and the other women were captured after falling a mission so they were doomed once they
left Battle Warrior Tower. The few women were well aware of this.
Upon hearing Eira’s words, Adrian smiled and said, “Don’t worry. We’ll speak sommer orter.
However, the surprise that 1 have for you is something that you’d never imagine, Eira I’ll only tell you
what it is after you eat.
“All right, eat up. You’ve been starving for at least a day now, so it’s time eal,”
The women looked at the foodid on the table and gulped. After all, no one in this world could possibly
ignore the sight and
smell of food. However, they did not dare to move without Ivy’s order.
Adrian looked toward Ivy and said, “You’re their leader, Can you bear to see your sisters starve? Even
if you have to die, wouldn’t you rather die with a full belly? I heard that people who die starving look
ugly.”
Tvy pouted. She tumed her head and looked at her sisters who were visibly tempted by the food.
Hence, she said, “Eat, everyone. Let’s fill our bellies first and we discuss everything elseter. We need
strength, so we must eat.”
Upon hearing her remark, the women quickly filed toward the table. They picked up their cutlery and
ate their meals standing. The joy on their faces were evident, perhaps due to the prolonged starvation.
