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 hadpletely 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 Bar.


    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 notment 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 Bar and headed to Nine Kings in Swallowston.


    Nine Kings was one of thergestpanies in Swallowston, and their director’s name was Liam Starr.


    Thepany had recently secured itself a three–hundred–million–dor project and was subbing out


    two fashion contracts to otherpanies, making it apetition.


    At this moment, Samantha’spany 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,” Adrianmented.


    Samantha pursed her lips and nodded. “How could I not be? Nelson’s aplete 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 hees 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 rx. However, she did not want to give up on an opportunity like


    this either.
