Chapter 74


    Nathan frantically waved his hands and said, “Mother, I just heard the news myself. Have you guys


    seen Nine Kings‘ recent post?


    “Samantha’s Bar 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 dors!” Nathan said excitedly.


    “What?!” Violet was dumbfounded when she heard this, while all of the Cowells were too stunned to


    speak.


    ‘Bar 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‘test 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.


    Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    Nine Kings had announced that their contracts for the three hundred million dor project had been


    completely distributed, with Bar being awarded four hundred and five hundred thousand dors.


    Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air.


    ra then said, “H–How’s this possible? Samantha and Adrian are both deadbeats, so how did they


    get a spot in Swallow Central? Not even the cks are eligible to do so!”


    “She’s right. I smell something fishy going on here,” Simon nodded in agreement.


    The cks were considered to be a pretty influential family in Swallowston, yet they were not worthy


    enough of a spot in Swallow Central.


    ‘A measlypany like Bar being allowed to set up shop there? That’s just bullsh*t!‘ Simon thought.


    Nathan said, “Mother, Bar getting a spot has be a fact now, so there’s no point in thinking


    whether something’s fishy about it or not.


    “However, Bar belongs to the Cowells after all, so why should we allow Samantha to hog all the


    glory?”


    Violet pondered silently for a moment.


    ‘If Bar gets into Swallow Central, there’s a huge chance it will grow to be a hugepany in


    Swallowston. There might even be a chance for it to be listed. After all, Swallow Central will


    be the busiest ce in Swallowston.


    ‘If Bar is able to sessfully build up its fashion market, it wouldn’t be a dream for it to rake in tens of


    thousands of dors worth of sales per day. Yet, Samantha will be keeping all these profits to herself.“‘


    Violet then said, “But Samantha’s already given us seven hundred and fifty thousand dors and we


    promised we wouldn’t cause Bar any more trouble.”


    This was something Violet came to regret immensely. ‘I wouldn’t have taken her money if I had known


    this was going to happen.‘


    At that moment, raughed and said, “But Grandmother, Bar belongs to the family. Samantha


    may have paid us, but it’s barely enough to repay you for raising her this far. So, at the end of the day,


    Bar is still ours!”


    The Cowellsughed heartily when they heard this. There was no way they were going to sit back and


    watch as Bar moved into Swallow Central without gaining anything in return.


    Francis said excitedly, “ra is right, Grandmother. Bar does indeed belong to the family. You should


    consider that money Samantha gave you as repayment for raising her.


    “In other words, Bar entering Swallow Central means that our family is about to grow by leaps and


    bounds!”


    Everyone present was getting excited. Their greedy expressions gave away their desperate yearning to


    reim Bar. After all, Bar entering Swallow Central marked the beginning of its rise to glory.


    At that moment, Violet fell silent once more as she processed what ra had said.


    After a long while, she said, “The children are right. Bar belongs to the family. It belongs to the


    Cowells. I won’t make it easy for Samantha to hog all the profits.”
