The Cowells shook with excitement as they made their way there.


“Hahaha! Bailar is ours, Grandmother. We got a contract with Nine Kings and we have a spot in Swallow Central. Our family’s status will rise from today forth!”


Francis was growing restless in his seat, his face beaming with excitement.


Clara was delighted as well. She inhaled a deep breath and said, “Our family will hold a different status from today onward. We will become an influential family of Swallowston when we open up at Swallow Central.”


Nathan nodded and said, “Clara’s right, Mother. Our family’s status is about to change. The collaboration with Nine Kings and the Swallow Central spot are contributions of our family.


“I’d like to see who in Swallowston will look down upon the Cowells from now on.”


The Cowells felt really good about themselves and were delighted beyond comparison.


Violet nodded and said, “Thank you for your hard work, everyone. Put all your efforts into managing the company properly once we move into Swallow Central. This is our family’s opportunity to rise to success.”


“Yes, Grandmother!”


“Yes, Mother!”


The Cowells answered in succession.


A series of drastic changes took place in Bailar on this night.


All the top–level personnel of the company received news that the company had been taken over by the Cowell Group. Moreover, the company was listed as a subsidiary of the Cowell Group.


Violet was named the president of Bailar, while Clara held the post of chairperson. Francis was made the Cowell Group’s general manager.


On top of that, Violet announced to the public that the Cowell Group had acquired Bailar as one of its subsidiary companies. She once again showed her shameless side to Adrian.


It was the Cowells who asked to take over Bailar, yet they turned the story into them having acquired Bailar.


It was simply shameless of them.


The next day after losing Bailar, Samantha did not get up. She refused to get up and chose to stay in bed all day.


Rue had prepared breakfast and had waited for Samantha for a long time. She called out to Samantha for breakfast yet the latter refused to leave her room.


“Adrian, go and comfort her. The Cowells went too far last night, and so did you. Why did you agree to let them take Bailar?” Rue asked Adrian in frustration.


Adrian did not comment further. This was just a trivial matter to him.


He made his way to Samantha’s room and knocked on the door. “It’s nine o’clock, Sam. It’s time to wake up.”


However, he did not receive any reply. Samantha did not utter a single word.


Meanwhile, Rue brought over the key to Samantha’s room. Adrian unlocked the door without the slightest hesitation.


He found Samantha lying on her side in the room with tears streaming down her cheeks. It looked like her mind was miles


away. 1


Adrian sighed upon seeing Samantha in her saddened state. He shut the door and made his way toward her. He got into the bed, laid down, and wrapped his arms around Samantha from behind.

“Don’t touch me!” Samantha shouted and turned over in an attempt to shove Adrian away.


However, Adrian held her so tightly that she was incapable of pushing him.


After struggling for a while, Samantha realized that she could not break free and stopped struggling. She lay motionless in Adrian’s tight embrace.


Adrian stretched out his hand to caress her long hair and said, “We still have to attend Cassey’s wedding today.


“I promise you, Sam. Losing Bailar is a good thing for you. You will get back on your feet. Trust me.”


Adrian’s words reverberated in Samantha’s ears.
