The Return of the War Legate

Chapter 60

“Where’s your car?” Adaline asked in confusion.

“I’ve already made a call, so let’s give it a minute.”

“What in the world is he doing now?‘ Adaline wondered.

Within less than ten minutes, an exquisite silver–colored Porsche Cayenne Turbo Coupé could suddenly be heard driving toward the siblings with its engines blaring.

A car that was worth one and a half million dollars stopped right in front of the siblings.

The car doors opened, revealing a stunning woman in a uniform dress. She got out and handed the keys to Adrian. “Here’s

sir.”

your car,

“Thank you. Good work,” Adrian said.

The woman smiled and flagged down a cab for herself.

With the keys, Adrian opened the storage compartment and looked at Ada. “Come on, put your luggage inside, and let’s head off.”

Adaline was too stunned to speak. She may not be familiar with cars, but even she could tell that the Porsche in front of her was worth more than a million dollars.

She had not been in a car this luxurious ever since Henry passed away. In fact, she had never even owned a normal car that was worth twenty thousand dollars.

“Adrian, what’s this?” Adaline had her hand over her mouth in shock. She could feel something being triggered deep inside of her.

‘Did Adrian just casually open the door of a million–dollar car????

Adaline recalled the events back at the restaurant–about how Lucas and Daniel had shown up there all of a sudden.

She was completely dumbfounded.

‘Is my brother actually a deadbeat?”

“Come on, get in.”

Adrian was already sitting in the car amidst Adaline’s daze with the windows rolled down.

Adaline composed herself and got into the passenger seat.

This was the first time she had come into contact with a car as luxurious as the Porsche ever since Henry passed away, and she was instantly reminded about how comfortable it was to sit in one.

“This car is absolutely pristine. It’s obvious that no one’s ever driven it before.”

“Be honest with me, Adrian. Where did you get this?” Adaline was rather stiff as she turned to look at her brother, who was already driving toward Swallowston University.

Adrian replied honestly, “It belongs to the Xanders.”

“The Xanders?” Adaline was startled. She could feel tears welling up in her eyes.

Adrian continued, “Listen to me. If you focus on your studies and graduate with the highest honors three years from now, I’ll give you a Lamborghini Veneno as a present.”

Adaline’s mind was instantly hit with what felt like an explosion and she trembled.

‘He’s going to give me a super luxurious car worth almost fifteen million dollars if I graduate with the highest honors? He doesn’t sound like he’s joking…‘

“Adrian, you…” Adaline was too shocked to form a coherent sentence.

Adrian shot her a glance and smiled. “Father’s dream was to expand his company overseas. This is something that only you can achieve.

“Also, don’t tell Mother or Sam about this. Sam won’t be able to handle it. We can tell her after the situation at her company has stabilized,” Adrian explained.

Adaline took a deep breath and sobbed as she asked, “Just how much money do you have? Are you really the legate?”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
