“Samantha, where did you get this money from? Violet was nervous
The Cowell Group was only worth about a million dollars in market value. She had never seen that much money since Samantha’s grandfather passed away.
Samantha replied, “You don’t need to know that, Grandmother. Count it. After that, we’re clear of debt.” “Hugo, count it,” Violet ordered.
Hugo quickly walked over and asked a few people to join him. They all looked as if they had lost their mind as they grabbed a bunch of notes and started counting. When done, the amount came to exactly seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
Everyone sucked in a breath through their teeth.
“Mother, it’s exactly seven hundred and fifty thousand. No more, no less,” Hugo reported.
“What?” Violet was nervous.
Adrian spoke up, “Someone said they were going to get on their knees, and now is the time. Otherwise, your grandmother will die.”
Francis‘ legs shook because he never imagined that Adrian would be able to get his hands on so much money.
But getting on his knees for Adrian? No way!
Francis regretted it. “I take back what I said.”
Adrian smirked. “Take back? Do you think we’re playing games here? It’s fine if you don’t kneel, but your grandmother’s life may be cut short.”
He then glared at Violet.
She was terrified because she suddenly got dragged into this. How could she remain calm?
That was when she said, “Francis, you have to keep your word.” novelbin
Francis broke down because he did not dare disobey her, so he got on his knees, and his face turned red.
Adrian chuckled. “I’m accepting this win. So, from now on, we don’t owe each other anything. Good riddance!”
He then took Samantha’s hand, turned around, and left.
Samantha took a last look at her family. Even though she did not want to, she could only leave.
“*sshole!” Violet yelled in anger after they left. “Adrian has no respect for elders! How dare he curse me!”
The Cowells cowered as Violet lost her temper. Francis, especially, because he felt utterly humiliated.
“Adrian Xander, I won’t let this go.” He clenched his fists.
After leaving, Samantha breathed a sigh of relief. She no longer owed the Cowells, so the Bailar was now all hers.
“What’s wrong? Are you angry that I made Francis get on his knees?” Adrian asked because he noticed her reaction.
Samantha shook her head. “No Francis has always been arrogant. It was time he was taught a lesson. I just thought it would be great if Grandfather were still alive.”
Samantha sighed. Even though she was a Cowell, she was ostracized just because she had married Adrian
Adrian smiled at her.
Samantha said, “All right, let’s head to the office. We need to get ready to be part of Swallow Central.”
