Chapter 100

The truth was, Cedric had no idea where this large sum of money would come from.

He was a deadbeat and was clueless about rumming a company. Yet, Harold regarded him as one of his best grandsons. Harold thought very highly of him.

Riley was furious beyond comparison upon hearing Cedric’s remark

Receive a large sum of money?”

Riley said, “Cedric, you don’t even go out to secure business deals and spend all day flirting with women and drinking here. Everyone in the company knows that.

“Didn’t you sleep with a married employee once? The woman’s husband came seeking justice from the company.

“You’re going to inflict great damage sooner or later if you keep doing this.”

Riley appeared worried.

Cedric raised his head and burst out laughing. “You think too much, Riley. I’ve never yielded to anyone in Swallowston. No one in the city dares to claim that they’re more capable than me.

“I believe that I deserve to enjoy the process before 1 succeed in my career.”

Cedric leaned back into his chair.

Riley was at a loss for words to nag him with. She inhaled a deep breath and said, “Olay then, Cedric. If you say so, nothing much else that I can say either.

“I can’t save the company, so I’ll leave that to the both of you. I will hand in my resignation to Grandfather tonight.”

Riley placed all the folders in her hands on the table. She then turned around and walked out of the office.

Cedric called out after witnessing the situation, “What are you doing, Riley? You’re going to regret this.”

Riley was the only reasonable member of the Xander family. She attempted to reach out to Adaline over the years so she could get close to her cousin.

However, Adaline had always thought of her as an enemy because she was Leonard’s daughter. This fact made Adaline very

uneasy.

Yet, there was nothing Riley could do. She could only watch helplessly and do nothing as these events transpired because she too was a Xander.

Hiley left Paraiso in frustration

However, she saw a car driving into the company building as she was exiting the building.

The car stopped and a man and a woman got out.

Riley was instantly stunned when she saw the man.

“Adrian?” Riley called out.

She knew that Adrian was back but she had yet to cross paths with him.

Riley was Adrian’s cousin and they had been quite close when they were younger. Riley sympathized with Adrian for the

radical changes he faced in his life but Adrian’s family loathed her because of Leonard.

Riley’s eyes reddened with tears.

Meanwhile, Adrian and Mya got out of the car and gazed at the buikling.

Adrian said, “The company has undergone major changes and is completely different from how it was seven years ago, Mya, I’ll leave the company in your care after 1 acquire it.”

Mya, who was standing next to him, nodded.
