The Return of the War Legate by Celestial Clouds novel Chapter 29

“Samantha, where did you get this money from?” Violet was nervous.

The Cowell Group was only worth about a million dollars in market value. She had never seen that much money since Samantha’s grandfather passed away.

Samantha replied, “You don’t need to know that, Grandmother. Count it. After that, we’re clear of debt.”

“Hugo, count it,” Violet ordered.

Hugo quickly walked over and asked a few people to join him. They all looked as if they had lost their mind as they grabbed a bunch of notes and started counting. When done, the amount came to exactly seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars.

Everyone sucked in a breath through their teeth.

“Mother, it’s exactly seven hundred and fifty thousand. No more, no less,” Hugo reported.

“What?” Violet was nervous.

Adrian spoke up, “Someone said they were going to get on their knees, and now is the time. Otherwise, your grandmother will die.”

Francis’ legs shook because he never imagined that Adrian would be able to get his hands on so much money.

But getting on his knees for Adrian? No way!

Francis regretted it. “I take back what I said.”

Adrian smirked. “Take back? Do you think we’re playing games here? It’s fine if you don’t kneel, but your grandmother’s life may be cut short.”

He then glared at Violet.

She was terrified because she suddenly got dragged into this. How could she remain calm?
