Seeing this, Harold immediately had the bouncers at the door block Adler''s way.


    But those bouncers were no match for Adler, who knocked them to the ground in just a few moves.


    Watching Adler''s retreating back, Harold stood frozen in ce, stunned.


    So... when exactly had he be so formidable?


    Adler quickly left the hospital. Harold''s men at the door tried to stop Adler, but they didn''t anticipate his unrelenting speed. With a casual punch, the maning face-to-face with him fell to the ground. Ten men at the door, and not one could stand up to Adler.


    In less than thirty seconds, Adler got into his car and sped off towards the valley.


    Driving, Adler''s mind was flooded with memories of his childhood.N?velDrama.Org owns this text.


    "Lift your leg! Clench your fist! Hit me!"


    Lennon''s stern voice kept piercing his ears.


    Faced with the punching bag, Jenna always gave it her all, striving to do her best.


    His gaze would always follow Jenna, while he himself half-heartedly lifted his leg, having no real desire to learn these so-called self-defense techniques.


    "Adler! You again,d?"


    Lennon raised his cane and struck his arm, angrily saying, "If you don''t want to learn properly, then get out of here!"


    Back then, he had no interest in learning, nor did he care for it. In fact, he had already mastered these skills.


    Though only eight, his exceptional physical abilities hadnded him in a special training ss for two months.


    In those two months, his outstanding talent made him unbeatable in the junior division.


    He had always thought fighting was a boring and time-wasting affair.


    Because no one could match him.


    He couldn''t understand why girls would like to fight.


    So, the moment he saw Jenna, he was drawn to her.


    Back then, he had purposely whined to Lennon, "Grandpa, this is too hard! I can''t learn it!"


    Finally, Jenna''s gaze fell on him, although just for a moment, his eyes sparkled.


    Jenna didn''t like getting close to people. Since her arrival at the


    Costello family, this was the fin


    time she had taken such an initiative to look at him.


    Before he could rejoice, Lennon''s sticknded on his backside again, "Are you going to learn or not! Stop ying the fool! Let''s see how I teach you!"


    "I''ll learn! I''ll learn! Grandpa, please don''t hit me!"


    The scene shifted, and he stood, covered in mud, in Lennon''s study.


    Lennon, sitting in front of his desk, looked at him seriously, "Don''t think a bit of cleverness canst forever, nor waste your great talent.


    Self-defense is for protecting


    yourselves, and for when yo


    up, to have the ability to protect those you want to protect You


    might not understand now, but you


    will in the future."


    ...


    Adler''s thoughts gradually returned to the present.


    The principles he hadn''t understood before, he now did.


    In the past, fighting and brawling seemed no different from children''s fights to him.


    It was because Jenna liked it, that he put more effort into learning.


    He knew Jenna was a strong woman, never bowing to men, so he simply yed the weakling by her side.


    He had nned to let Jenna be her strong self forever, while he would just happily take care of the home. But now...
