The Return of the War Legate

Chapter 94

This was the first time Samantha had ever seen Adrian in a different light ever since he returned.

He would always think so far ahead that Samantha felt that the man before her was no different than Henry, the man who had

ruled over Swallowston in the past…

From the beginning, she had refused to believe that Henry’s son was a deadbrat.

When Adrian heard this compliment, he smiled and said, “Have you forgotten who I am? There’s no need for me to have to use my head to think about something so trivial, I could’ve done it with my eyes closed.”

“Pfft!” Samantha could not stop herself from laughing before she shot him a glare. “Look at your ego blow up after a single compliment.”

Even so, Samantha was still very surprised by Adrian’s insight. She then asked, “You said my grandmother might come looking for me very soon. What makes you say that?”

“Because she’s not a fool. She knows that you’re the only one whom Nine Kings want to work with, and you’re the only reason Bailar was able to get into Swallow Central.

“So, she’s going to come looking for you, hoping you’ll become Bailar’s general manager and win back that contract with Nine Kings

till unsure whether Violet

There’s no way

she’d be able to hide such a cheap tactic from me.” Samantha pursed her lips, still would actually come looking for her. “What should I do if she comes looking for me?”

“Nothing at all. People like her only take advantage of others. You should keep quiet if she asks to see you. I’ll take care of her.”

“But_” After a moment’s hesitation, Samantha continued, “Bailar’s my company at the end of the day. I don’t want to have

to watch it fall into ruin.”

Adrian shook his head and held his wife’s beautiful face. “My silly little sweetheart, you should learn to let things go. Even if Ballar does go under, you can always open up a new company.”

“I can?” Samantha was shocked for a moment, while Adrian merely smiled.

Right at that moment, someone came knocking on their door.

“Open the door, Samantha!” NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

“Hurry up!”

Samantha shuddered when she heard this and turned to look at Adrian. “You’re right once again. Grandmother really has

come.

Adrian silled, while Samantha nushed out of bed to open the door.

Lo and behold, Vinlet had brought the Cowells with her. This included Clara, whose face was filled with disdain, an arrogant- looking Francis, Nathan, Hugo, and a few others.

“Grandmother? What brings you here?” As much as Samantha hated vialet, she was still her grandmother at the end of the day, so decorum had to be observed.

“Hmph!” Violet let off a cold humph and plopped down on the sofa.

Seeing this, Sumantha hurried off to pour Violet a cup of tea.

“That won’t be necessary. I dislike having to grace my tastebuds with tea served by the household of a deadbeat. Let’s stop heating around the bush and get down to business.”

Samantha nodded her head. “Please, go ahead.”

“I want you to come back to Bailar and operate the company as the general manager. Then, you’re going to re–initiate that contract with Nine Kings and get Bailar that spot in Swallow Central.”

‘It’s just as Adrian said! Even though she was mentally prepared, Samantha was still slightly flabbergasted. ‘Why does Grandmother still seem so high and mighty even though she’s the one asking me for a favor?!

At that moment, Clara said, “Let’s get this straight, We’re not here to beg you. This is an order.”

There was no courtesy in Clara’s voice as she continued to sneer before saying, “You’ll resign as the general manager after you’ve got back the partnership with Nine Kings and the company settles down in Swallow Central.

I’ll say it again. We’re not here to beg you for those things.

“You don’t deserve to have us beg you for anything.”
