Chapter 220: Royal Mess Up (3)
"You joined the misty swords!?" George exclaimed. "Even after everything I told you about them?"
Adrian sighed, eating the fruit salad Sophia had prepared for him. "Look, I know what you’re thinking, but it’s nothing like that. I only joined them to take them down and rebuild the guild in my image."
"Rebuild, my ass," George replied, taking a watermelon out of Adrian’s bowl. "If there’s evil, it has to be them! Do you have any idea the kind of shit they had been involved in over the years?"
"Drug trafficking, prostitution, illegal gambling, it’s quite a big list, to be honest," Adrian smiled, handing George the list of names and the crimes they could be charged for.
As George went through the list, he couldn’t believe his eyes. There were names of people from his own firm involved in the crimes, and he had no idea about them.
In other words, the list Adrian gave George was a treasure trove for a lawyer to screw over an organisation like the Misty Swords royally.
"This is more than anyone has ever known about their operations," George said as he went through the folder. "How did you-"
"Does it matter?" Adrian shrugged. "Let’s say I borrowed some files from the vice guild master she doesn’t know about. I was dead serious when I said I’d take them down. We will get them, albeit slowly. Now, will you help me or not."
"Do I even have a choice?" George sighed, tossing the folder back to Adrian. "I made a promise to you all those years ago, and I don’t plan on breaking it."
