The Return of the War Legate by Celestial Clouds

Chapter 77
“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 looked toward Violet and said, “If you want Bailar so badly, you can have it, old hag. However, if you dare to come and harass Sam after acquiring the company, don’t blame me for being impolite to you and your family.

“Now, get out of here and take the company!”
Adrian did not wish to be in these people’s presence for one moment longer.
Violet was shameless so she did not comment further. The only thing she said was, “Those are your words. Get Samantha to transfer Bailar to us. I have a contract with me right now.
“I just need her signature and it will be done.” Violet beckoned.
Clara walked over with a smug expression and slammed a business transfer agreement on the dining table. She said, “You’ve been forcibly holding the company for such a long time. It’s time to return the company to us. Sign here, Samantha.”
“Sign it, Sam,” Adrian urged Samantha.
She looked at Adrian with tears streaming down her face. She could not figure out why Adrian would transfer the ownership of her painstaking efforts to them.
However, she had no other choice at this very moment.
Adrian repeated once again, saying, “Trust me, Sam. Giving up on the company will be good for you. The Cowells will regret their action in a few days.”
Samantha inhaled a deep breath. She did not have anything else better to say at this point. She walked over and signed the agreement.
After it was done, Adrian picked up the agreement and tossed it to Violet. “Take it and go take Bailar, you old hag. Stop being an eyesore here.”
Violet was immensely excited. She happily took the agreement and did not care about anything else at this moment. She said, ” Let’s go so we can take over Bailar. Quick.”
“Yes, Grandmother.”
The rest of the Cowells were excited too. They did not linger and immediately marched out of the house.
Adrian wanted to comfort Samantha after the Cowells’ departure but she did not give him the chance to do so by immediately locking herself in her room.
