Samuel and Cedric were completely at a loss for words as they were faced with this unexpected turn of events.
They were distraught. They could only watch helplessly as Adrian and Samantha followed Mandy into Swallowston Bank.
They had mixed feelings about the situation.
“Samuel, umm…”
Once Mandy and Samantha left, Cedric looked at Samuel awkwardly and had trouble finding the words to say.
Samuel flew into a rage. He turned around to glare at Cedric and roared, “Cedric, you got me in some deep sh*t today!”
Pow!
Samuel punched Cedric in the face.
Cedric fell face-down to the ground and was panic-stricken. “Samuel, listen to me! Samuel! I didn’t know that this would happen either!”
Samuel could not be bothered to speak to Cedric as he proceeded to beat Cedric up.

Meanwhile, in the most luxurious VIP reception room on the highest floor of the twenty-four-story-tall Swallowston Bank, Mandy opened the door and said, “Ms. Samantha, Mr. Adrian, this way please.”
Samantha thanked Mandy and walked in. The room was spacious and decorated elegantly and lavishly.
She looked around the VIP reception room in astonishment. She had not expected the renowned tycoon of Swallowston, Mandy Cole, to treat her so politely.
“Please take a seat,” said Mandy with a smile.
Samantha took a seat on the sofa with her thighs squeezed together tightly under her short skirt.
On the other hand, Adrian simply lay down on the sofa. He even dangled his legs over the sofa’s armrest.
Upon witnessing this scene, Samantha immediately called out to him softly, “Adrian, have some manners.”
