Samantha slept fitfidly.

It was most probably due to Adrian’s company.

Samantha discovered that she was lying in Adrian’s arms when she woke up the next morning and her head was on Adrian’s

Her face blushed ever so slightly and she hastily sat up. She was afraid that Adrian would wake up and tease her

Samantha took a shower and put on a business suit. She went to wake Adrian after she was done.

“Wake up” She shook him gently

Adrian woke up and rubbed his eyes. His eyes lit up when he saw Samantha standing in front of him.

The sight of her was breathtaking to him. She had a button nose and cherry–red lips and exuded a mature presence. Anyone who laid eyes upon her would not be able to help but stare at her because of her beautiful face which looked great from all angles.

Adrian was no exception, of course.

“Are you a fairy?” Adrian asked in a surprised tone.

“What nonsense. Get up, quick Mother has prepared breakfast.” Samantha glared at him.

Adrian was becoming more and more of a sweet talker.

Samantha left the room after waking him.

Adrian got up and the family gathered for breakdast

During breakfast, Rue said, “Oh right, Sam. I heard from a neighbor this morning that Southrive’s River family has already invested in the Xander Group.

“The Rivers has already wired seven million three hundred thousand dollars worth of capital to the Xander Group. I also heard that Cedric and Jacob have bought a car worth more than one hundred forty thousand dollars each.”

The old neighbors were all big blabbermouths. They were fond of criticizing and discussing other families because they had ample free time on their hands.

Hence, the Xanders became the topic of their conversation that moming.

Upon hearing this, Samantha said in frustration, “I really can’t figure out why Harold and the others are behaving like children despite their age. They’re constantly assuming that their family will rise again and that they’re blessed with good fortune. They’re really something else.”

Adrian shook his head in frustration ton

“Adrian, it seems that your grandfather is past the point of no return this time,” said Rue.

Adrian fell silent. He had already done everything he could. He could not help Harold change his behavior. Besides, he had. already given up on Harold.

He said, “Just leave them be.”

Hur wanted to say something else, but she stopped herself. “He’s still your grandfather at the end of the day. Can you bear to see the Xanders being taken over by the other families?”

Adrian said, “Harold will only learn his lesson by experiencing loss.”

“Sigh…” Rue let out a sigh. “If your father was still alive, the Xanders wouldn’t be in its current state.”

Chapter 195

There was nothing much to say about that now because Henry was a piece of history.

After breakfast, Adrian and Samantha headed to New Paraiso

Their relationship had improved perhaps due to them sharing a bed yesterday where Samantha had spent most of the night sleeping in Adrian’s arms.

Samantha was less awkward than usual. She chatted and laughed with Adrian like a joyful child.

However, Elara approached her as soon as they arrived at the company.

“Samantha, Danton Black of Swallowton’s Black family and also the president of Herbalis is coming to the company to discuss

a collaboration,” said Elara.

Samantha was slightly stunned.
