The rest of the Cowells were astonished.
Francis lay on the ground, trembling uncontrollably. He whimpered continuously because of the pain in his mouth.
Then, he started shedding, tears. He wanted to cry out loud, yet he discovered that he could not move his lips. He had not expected something like this to happen and he regretted his actions at this very moment
He wanted to speak, yet was utterly incapable of even moving his mouth.
“Francis, Francis? How do you feel? Hugo asked as he helped Francis into a sitting position.
Francis could not speak but his eyes were filled with fear as he looked at Adrian.
Samantha had not expected Adrian to punch Francis so strongly and her beautiful face turned pale with fear.
Violet was shaking at the sight of Francis‘ badly battered state.
“What did you do, Adrian?!” she roared at him.
Adrian clapped his hands together. He did not even glance at Violet as he said, “Haven’t you heard of the saying ‘the one who scolds people has a foul mouth? Francis scolded someone so it’s natural for me to beat his mouth into a foul pulp!
“As for the company shares that you want, I can give them to you.”
“What?” Violet was astonished.
Samantha was astonished as well. She said, “What nonsense are you saying, Adrian? I’m not giving her anything.”
Violet shouted at Samantha, “Shut up! You have no right to speak here!”
She looked toward Adrian and said, “Are you serious about the shares?”
Violet was rather excited. New Paraiso would be worth more than ten million dollars soon. If she could acquire some of its shares, they would be worth more than a few Cowell Groups combined.
The rest of the Cowells were excited too and had almost forgotten about Francis‘ badly mutilated mouth.
“Of course, I’m serious,” answered Adrian with a smile. “But”
He then added, “You can’t just take New Paraiso’s share so casually. If you want them, the condition is simple. I’ll give them to you if you bow to your two sons eighteen times.”
Violet shuddered upon hearing, Adrian’s condition and she instantly backed up two steps.
Adrian beamed widely. He could not be bothered by the shares but he could not stand Violet’s shamelessness.
“That’s asking too much!” shouted Violet.
“What nonsense are you talking about, Adrian?” Samantha too thought that Adrian was asking for too much.
Adrian said, “The Cowells are well–known for being shameless and useless. Violet, I asked you to bow to your two sons, yet now you think you’re too mighty to bow to them?
“I’ll give you seventy percent if you do it!”
Adrian cracked a wide smile.
Hugo and Nathan stood by the side in excitement.
If Adrian was telling the truth, they were one step away from achieving wealth.
Violet clenched her teeth tightly. What she cared about most was her reputation. She would be disgraced if news of her bowing to her sons for the sake of company shares were to spread in Swallowston.
“The biggest mistake I’ve ever made in my life is raising an ungrateful brat.

“Samantha, I advise you to give the shares some good thought. Otherwise, you will regret this
If I suffer, so will you,” Violet warned Samantha.
Samantha was at a loss for words.
Violet grunted and stormed out of the building.
Hugo said to Adrian as he dragged Francis, “I won’t let this matter pass either, Adrian. I will have you killed once I have everything figured out!”
Hugo clenched his teeth in rage.
Nathan reminded, “Samantha, it’d be best for you to hand over the shares. Your grandmother raised you for so many years so you should show her some respect.”
