Chapter 719

Aman in a black trench coat walked down from the second floor with a sense of imposing aura.

Elder Maurice looked cold when he saw Terry.

When Auguste was in power, Elder Maurice‘s opinion was greatly valued. However, ever since Terry
became the leader, Elder Maurice‘s opinion was often ignored during the meeting

Even though he had offered many important proposals, Terry did not give any response.

Today, Elder Maurice offered his proposal regarding the economic construction, but Terry did not regard
his proposal highly or provide him with any feedback.

As such, Elder Maurice found that he had not been treated with respect.

Elder Maurice went up to Terry with his walking stick and snorted, “It‘s clear that the woman has an
ulterior motive. I‘m just helping you to get rid of the potential troublemaker. Am I wrong for doing this?”

Terry sneered , “Mr. Maurice , I wonder if it‘s you or her who has an ulterior motive against me. I hope
I‘ve made myself clear.”

Elder Maurice was put on the spot before the public. He was embarrassed. He flung his hand. “Auguste
and I fought for this land. I put in painstaking effort in every area. I can‘t bear to watch the woman
destroying everything. Terry, even if you want to blame me for the rest of your life or drive me out, I will
still get rid of this woman!”

“Arrest her!” Elder Maurice ordered.

Adina felt speechless.



She had been in this town for less than a week. She had been to the central area less than three times.
What did Hestia Border‘s life and death have anything to do with her?

Elder Maurice had made a big scene to fulfill his hidden selfish desire.

Adina frowned. She noticed the approaching bodyguards through her peripheral vision.

Before she took action, the man next to her took something out of his pocket and flung it out. Elder
Maurice‘s four bodyguards immediately fell to the ground. No one knew if they were alive or dead.
Elder Maurice looked even angrier.

He finally realized that Terry became the leader based on his ability instead of luck.

There was still a long way to go to kill Terry and replace him.

“Well done!”

Elder Maurice was so pissed off that he was lost for words. He swung his hand and left.

The several elders behind Elder Maurice were his followers, and they left with him.

The mansion fell quiet. Adina pursed her lips and said, “Thank you.” Terry replied to her flatly, “If it
hadn‘t been for me, Elder Maurice will not target you. Let‘s go into my study room.” He turned around
and placed his hands on his back, then walked upstairs.

Adina stood behind him. She looked up and saw his full body. She found his walking posture and the
amplitude when he swung his hand to be familiar…

The image of Duke appeared in Adina‘s mind once again.

The next moment, she snickered.



She must have missed him too much to the extent of finding everyone looking similar to him…

She suppressed her confused emotions and followed Terry upstairs.

His study room was very spacious. The large bookshelves were filled with various foreign language
books, all of which were books from a long time ago. “Regarding your proposal last time, I agreed to
work with you.”

Terry sat down on his office chair. His gaze looked calm.

“But before that, I have to judge your skills.” Adina remained calm and leisurely said, “How would you
like me to prove my skills to you?
