The Return of the War Legate

Chapter 698

The Snows dashed out of the house with their luggage.

Megan took the lead, making her way to the car. Seeing Adrian and Mya who were stepping down from the car, she said, ” You’re here. We’re all packed. Can we go now?”

Adrian nodded. “Get in. We’ll depart right away.”

“Yes, yes. Let’s go, let’s go!” Megan said eagerly.

The family got into the car and Mya drove the

te group toward Southrive.

Megan and her family could barely sit still along the way. Megan questioned Adrian about Eira over and over but he did not

answer her.

Mya smiled and said, “Mrs. Megan, please stay calm. You’ll find out everything when we get to our destination. We should arrive at Southrive’s Swallowston by noon.”

Megan did not inquire further, but she appeared to be laden with anxiety and restlessness throughout the rest of the journey.

At two in the afternoon, the group arrived at Swallowston and headed straight to Battle Warrior Tower. Adrian ordered Mya to make arrangements for Snows while he headed upstairs.

Blade was standing in the lobby when he arrived upstairs. Upon spotting Adnan, he hastily said, “You’re back, sir. Those women are giving me such a headache. They refuse to eat or drink and scold me as soon as I set foot into their holding location. I just…”

Blade pulled his hair, feeling frustrated. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Adrian was amused. He knew the women from Bloody Rose were no kind souls. They were feisty ones so it was only normal that they were good at berating others.

Adrian said, “I’ll go check on them.”

Blade nodded.

Adrian made his way to where Ivy, Eira, and the other twenty women were kept. They were sitting in every corner including on the beds, the chairs, the tables, and even on the wardrobe. Their long legs could be seen glistening from every corner of

the rooth.

Just as Adrian opened the door and entered the room, a pillow was instantly flung, at him and it hit him in the face.

“Hey Wyvern Peak’s lapdog, here for another scolding?”

“Free us if you have the balls. We’ll fight you one–on–one.”

“You’re just shameless scoundrels. You think you’re so capable just because you imprisoned a bunch of women?”

A stream of insults was heard. Soon after, high heels, lipsticks, and all manner of other items were flung in succession.

Adrian dodged these flying items and stepped into the room. The women instantly jumped off the wardrobe, tables, and beds upon recognizing him. Ivy and Eira began chattering noisily and led the rest of the women to do so.

“Draco, let us out of here. Do you think you’re so capable because you’ve bullied a few women?”

“Draco, I curse you to be cheated on by your wife!”

“You scoundrel! You by stard! Free us this instant!”

The numerous complaints deafened Adrian. He covered lals ears and waited for them to finish shouting. Alter a moment, possibly out of exhaustion, the women stopped clamauring. Only then did the room qulet down momentarily.

Adrian brought down his hands that were covering his ears. He looked toward the women, chnelled, and sald, “Tived from all that scolding? Since you’re tired, it’s my turn to speak.”
