The Return of the War Legate

Chapter 53

“Samuel?” Cedric was instantly delighted at the sight of the young man.

It was Samuel–the general manager of Swallowston Bank.

Cedric quickly approached him and said, “Thank you for taking the trouble to do this, Samuel. These two are trying to get into the bank. I’ll leave the rest to you.”

Cedric turned to look at Adrian and Samantha in contempt as he spoke.

Samantha was panic–stricken and hastily stepped forward to explain, “Hello, Mr. Samuel. I have an appointment with Ms. Mandy.”

Samuel looked at Samantha and said, “Ms. Mandy?”

Then, he sniggered. “What nonsense are you talking about? There’s only one Ms. Mandy in Swallowston Bank and she’s the president. She’s one of the top twenty richest people in Swallowston. Why would the president have an appointment with you?”

Samuel stared at Samantha with a malicious expression. “You don’t even know how to boast. Who do you think you are to get an appointment with the president?”

Samantha was dumbfounded. The person who called her earlier was the president of Swallowston Bank?

She had no idea what was going on, and she was at a loss for what to do at this exact moment as Samuel confronted her.

Meanwhile, Samuel said, “Both of you, leave right now. Swallowston Bank will not be giving you a loan. It’s simply an insult to our bank to have people like you here!”

Samuel gave the order to the guards to send them off the premises.

Samantha was dejected and there was nothing else she could do. Feeling waves of disappointment in her heart, she turned around and said to Adrian, “Let’s go.” NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

She was not expecting Adrian to stop her from leaving.

“Where are we going? Mandy isn’t even here yet,” said Adrian.

Samantha stopped in her footsteps.

Samuel was furious upon hearing this name. “How dare you address the president in such a casual manner, you deadbeat?! The president is a rich, influential person in Swallowston. Watch it. I’ll break your legs if you shamelessly boast like that again.”

Cedric quickly chimed in from the side, “He’s right, he’s right. Who do you think you are, Adrian? How dare you call her just ‘ Mandy‘. It’s ‘Ms. Mandy‘ to you. You’re overconfident.”

“You’re the overconfident ones!”

All of a sudden, a woman’s voice was heard coming from Swallowston Bank as Cedric’s voice faded away.

Everyone was slightly stunned upon hearing the voice.

Cedric hastily turned around. As did Samuel.

Samantha looked over as well.

A young woman in formal attire and high heels walked out of Swallowston Bank in long strides, followed by more than ten security guards.

Samuel’s expression instantly fell upon seeing the woman. He hastily said, “Ms. Mandy, wh–what brings you here?”

The young woman was Mandy Cole, the president of Swallowston Bank. She was one of the top twenty richest people in

Swallowston and was only thirty years old this year.

She was the renowned woman on the list of richest people in Swallowston.

“Hello, Ms. Mandy. My name is Cedric Xander and I’m the young successor to the Paraiso Group belonging to the Xander family.” Cedric quickly introduced himself.

Mandy’s expression was calm and she swiftly arrived before them.

Samuel called out respectfully, “Ms. Mandy.”

Slap!

Mandy raised her hand and suddenly slapped Samuel in the face when his voice died away.

He was instantly stunned by the slap.
