The Return of the War Legate by Celestial Clouds novel Chapter 11

A young man drove out of a mansion somewhere in Swllowston after answering Simon’s call.

That young man was George Livingston, son of one of the richest men in Swallowston, and had a close relationship with Donald Kushner, the richest man in the city.

After Simon got acquainted with George, the Cowells wanted to be associated with George, so they proposed a partnership between their companies. Clara added fuel to the fire and suggested that Samantha would sleep with him.

At that moment, George’s luxury car drove into the streets of Swallowston toward Adrian’s place. However, there were sudden bursts of engine noise from all directions.

The next moment, military SUVs popped out of nowhere and blocked his car from all sides.

“Wh-What’s this?”

George’s eyes opened wide when he saw the sudden fleet of cars. Before he could react, his car was surrounded by more than a dozen cars.

The cars stopped, and Daniel got out of one of them.

George shuddered and said, “General Summers, what brings you here? Wh-What’s happening?”

Daniel frowned. The only message he got from Adrian was instructions to capture George.

Daniel barked an order. “Take him away.”

The men rushed forward and held George down. He panicked and yelled, “General, what did I do?! Let go of me! My dad is William Livingston, the richest man in this city!”

“Even if your dad was Zeus himself, he still wouldn’t be able to save you.”

“Take him away!” Daniel thundered.

***

At Adrian’s home.

Clara and Simon were waiting for George, but after a long time, he still had not shown up. They were very curious.

Clara looked at Adrian, who was still reading, then whispered to Simon, “What’s going on? Why isn’t Mr. George here yet?”

“I’ll call him again. Maybe there’s a traffic jam.”

Simon picked up his phone and called George again. “Hello, Mr. George? What did you say? You got taken away by the army and are locked up? What happened? Why are they doing this?”

After he hung up, Simon took a sharp breath and said to Clara, “On his way here, Mr. George was taken away by the military. He’s locked up!”

“What? How did that happen?” Clara was stunned.

What was going on? Why was George taken away?

Simon looked at Adrian and yelled, “Adrian, it’s your lucky day! If it wasn’t because something happened to Mr. George, you wouldn’t get away with this!”

Clara added, “We’re going to come back for you. Simon. Let’s go!”

As they got ready to leave, Adrian stood up. “Did you forget what I said?”
