Nathan frantically waved his hands and said, “Mother, I just heard the news myself. Have you guys seen Nine Kings’ recent post?“Samantha’s Bailar is going to settle down in Swallow Central. Plus, she’s managed to bag a contract with Nine Kings worth four million and five hundred thousand dollars!” Nathan said excitedly.“What?!” Violet was dumbfounded when she heard this, while all of the Cowells were too stunned to speak.‘Bailar will be in Swallow Central?’‘That’s impossible!’‘Not even we are eligible to do such a thing, so how did Samantha manage such a feat?’Hugo, Violet’s second eldest son, said, “Is this true, Nathan?”“Without a doubt. Check Nine Kings’ latest post. They’re promoting this piece of news right now!”A few of them took out their phones to verify this, to which they were all left stunned.Nine Kings had announced that their contracts for the three hundred million dollar project had been completely distributed, with Bailar being awarded four hundred and

The Cowells grew increasingly excited when Violet said this.None of them were able to hold back their greed.“Hahaha! The Cowells will soon become a huge and powerful family!” Francis said excitedly, “Heaven is on our side. Bailar will be part of Swallow Central, and the Cowells will grow to become a hugely reputable family!”To them, pride and ego were worthless notions at that point. In fact, they already assumed that Bailar was theirs to claim ownership of.They had completely forgotten about the agreement they made with Samantha when they accepted her seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars.***That night, Samantha and Adrian returned home after she was done with her tasks at Bailar.Rue had already prepared dinner and was waiting for the pair to return.“You’re home, Sam. Go wash your hands and let’s eat,” Rue hurriedly said.Despite being poor, Rue had never mistreated Samantha. Not even once.She would always make sure Samantha’s meals were nutritious to replenish h

“Okay!“Here. You should eat more.” Rue was excited and piled more food onto Samantha’s plate.The family was in the midst of dinner when a frantic knocking came from outside the door. Rue went to answer it. She furrowed her eyebrows at the sight of the people standing outside. “What brings you here?”“What is it? Judging by your tone, am I not allowed to visit my granddaughter?” said Violet in a slightly angry tone.“That’s right, that’s right. You’re being quite disrespectful. Isn’t it perfectly justifiable for my grandmother to visit Samantha?” Francis said angrily.Rue was not fond of these Cowells, and she had not expected them to come knocking on her door again tonight. But she felt it inappropriate to reject them so she said, “Please, come in.”Violet and the other Cowells marched into the house. Samantha stood up in astonishment when she saw Violet and hastily said, “Why are you here, Grandmother? Have you eaten? Come and join us for dinner!”Violet looked solemn and her

“What?”The Cowells were shocked upon hearing Adrian’s remark. Not even Violet had expected Adrian to agree so easily.On the other hand, tears instantly started streaming down Samantha’s face when she heard what Adrian said. She roared, “What nonsense are you saying, Adrian?! Bailar is mine! Why would I give it to them?!”“I’m your grandmother, Samantha! Do you not have any respect for me?!” said Violet angrily upon hearing Samantha’s words.“I…” Samantha was shaken. Violet was going back on her word. Moreover, she did it so shamelessly and her actions left Samantha feeling hopeless.Adrian simply smiled at Samantha and comforted her by saying, “Don’t worry, Sam. The Cowells are jealous of you and came to take back the company after finding out about your collaboration with Nine Kings and that it got a spot in Swallow Central. Since they want it, let them have it.”“Adrian, what nonsense are you on about?” said Samantha as she sobbed.Adrian paid no attention to Samantha. He lo

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

Through painstaking efforts, Bailar got the chance to rise again, yet it was seized by the Cowells.To Samantha, losing the company was losing her only opportunity to succeed. But what else could she do now?She shut her eyes as she lay in Adrian’s arms. She did not want to think or do anything.“Come on, get up.” Adrian caressed her hair.Samantha’s red eyes brimmed with tears. She did not wish to move.Adrian said, “Sam, forget about what happened for now. Just trust me. I have my ways to handle the situation.”Samantha raised her head and said in a hoarse voice, “Ways? What ways do you have? If you had your ways, you wouldn’t have let the Cowells take Bailar.”“They’ll return it in the same way they took it. Don’t worry,” Adrian comforted her.It would be useless for him to explain further at this point.Samantha inhaled deeply. She made up her mind to deal with the situation. Then, she said, “Let go of me. I’m fine. I’m going to get ready to attend Cassey’s wedding.“Fran

On the contrary, it added a tinge of rusticness to her demeanor.After hanging up the call, Samantha said to Adrian, “Adrian, speak as little as you can when we’re at the wedding. I have many friends attending the wedding and they will target you if you talk.”Adrian nodded. He was aware of Cassey’s goal, of course, but he did not comment further.Samantha sped off to Swallowston Hotel where Cassey was getting married to Mario today.***As Samantha and Adrian headed to the hotel to attend Cassey’s wedding, the Cowells were at Bailar.Violet immediately called for an important meeting with Bailar’s staff members in the boardroom that morning. The managers of Bailar’s major departments and the Cowells were in attendance.During the meeting, Violet fired almost all the managers and assigned her family members to these posts. She fired Samantha’s assistant, Nina, too.There was a reshuffling in Bailar’s organization and the Cowells were promoted to top-level positions.At this ex

Nine Kings was a distinguished company in Swallowston that was considered one of the tops.The Cowells drove to Nine Kings in three separate cars and were beyond excited. After all, Liam was an influential person in Swallowston so it was a massive event for the Cowells to meet him.“Hahaha, Liam will treat us to the finest drinks for sure! Our family is truly impressive.” Francis could not refrain from chuckling in excitement as he sat in the car. He was convinced that Liam would feel more secure in the contract they signed with Bailar now that the Cowells had taken over.Clara said, “Francis is right. Liam will surely treat us with courtesy now that our status is different.”Next to her, Clara’s boyfriend, Simon smiled. “I heard talks about Liam. He’s fond of working with capable people.“On a side note, he nominated my family, the Blacks, as being capable in the past. He’ll certainly be very excited to host me today and to know that the Cowells and Blacks are working together.”
