    the Cowell Group’s general manager.


    On top of that, Violet announced to the public that the Cowell Group had acquired Bar as one of its


    subsidiarypanies. She once again showed her shameless side to Adrian.


    It was the Cowells who asked to take over Bar, yet they turned the story into them having acquired


    Bar.


    It was simply shameless of them.


    The next day after losing Bar, Samantha did not get up. She refused to get up and chose to stay in


    bed all day.


    Rue had prepared breakfast and had waited for Samantha for a long time. She called out to Samantha


    for breakfast yet thetter refused to leave her room.


    “Adrian, go andfort her. The Cowells went too farst night, and so did you. Why did you agree to


    let them take Bar?” Rue asked Adrian in frustration.


    Adrian did notment further. This was just a trivial matter to him.


    He made his way to Samantha’s room and knocked on the door. “It’s nine o’clock, Sam. It’s time to


    wake up.”


    However, he did not receive any reply. Samantha did not utter a single word.


    Meanwhile, Rue brought over the key to Samantha’s room. Adrian unlocked the door without the


    slightest hesitation.


    He found Samantha lying on her side in the room with tears streaming down her cheeks. It looked like


    her mind was miles


    away. 1

    toward her. He got into the bed,id down, and wrapped his arms around Samantha from behind.

    “Don’t touch me!” Samantha shouted and turned over in an attempt to shove Adrian away.


    However, Adrian held her so tightly that she was incapable of pushing him.


    After struggling for a while, Samantha realized that she could not break free and stopped struggling.


    Shey motionless in Adrian’s tight embrace.


    Adrian stretched out his hand to caress her long hair and said, “We still have to attend Cassey’s


    wedding today.


    “I promise you, Sam. Losing Bar is a good thing for you. You will get back on your feet. Trust me.”


    Adrian’s words reverberated in Samantha’s ears.
