Chapter 63
Adrian left Swallowston University after getting Adaline settled in.
Meanwhile, Adaline followed her senior from reception to the dormitories to begin her student life. However, what affected her was not her new university environment.
Instead, it was the sudden changes in her life.
She thought she and her mother were going to have to worry about their finances for the rest of their lives, but Adrian had clearly been making changes to their situation from behind the scenes.
Right from the moment the luxurious Porsche showed up, Adaline realized she had completely failed to estimate just how much money Adrian had.
But there was one thing she knew for certain–her elder brother had already surpassed their father in the seven years that he had been away.
Meanwhile, Adrian drove off in the Porsche and arrived at Bailar.
Samantha was having a meeting in the conference room at the moment, so Adrian sat around in her office since he had nothing much to do.
Soon, Samantha returned from her meeting and saw Adrian sitting on her sofa. “Is Ada all settled in? How did it go?”
Adrian nodded. “She got a pretty nice dorm and her dorm mates are treating her well. I stopped by to say hi to them before leaving.‘
Samantha heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this. “Great to hear. I’m heading out to discuss a contract right now.”
“I’ll go with you.” Adrian stood up.
Samantha did not comment on this. Adrian had been following her around to her business discussions. She knew that he had nothing else better to do, so she allowed him to tag along.
Thus, the pair left Bailar and headed to Nine Kings in Swallowston.
Nine Kings was one of the largest companies in Swallowston, and their director’s name was Liam Starr.
The company had recently secured itself a three–hundred–million–dollar project and was subbing out two fashion contracts to other companies, making it a competition.
At this moment, Samantha’s company had the equity to operate, and she wanted to try and bid for the contract.
On their way there, Samantha said, “There are two fashion contracts in the project. One of them has already been awarded to the Vine Group. It was an internal arrangement.
“I’m up against Nelson Kramer from the Kramer Group for the other contract. I hear that he has connections to the underworld. His little brother, Rick Kramer, is the underworld boxing champion.”
The underworld referred to the darker side of Swallowston. They would hold a boxing tournament every month, giving birth to many, many boxing champions there.
Samantha had heard rumors about Nelson, which was why she was rather terrified.
“You seem really nervous,” Adrian commented.
Samantha pursed her lips and nodded. “How could I not be? Nelson’s a complete jerk to those who go up against him. The men would get brutally beaten up, while the women would get roofied and…you know.
“He’s fearless because he comes from a wealthy family. Plus, his younger brother’s the underworld boxing champion. He uses his money to resolve and cover up his crimes.”
Samantha took a deep breath, clearly anxious at the mention of Nelson.

Adrian consoled her by saying, “You’ll be fine. I’m here with you, aren’t I? Don’t worry about him and concentrate on securing that contract.”
Even so, Samantha was unable to relax. However, she did not want to give up on an opportunity like this either.
