Lance stared at Adriana in shock, then burst out laughing. \u201cThe Ainsworth Group isn\u2019t the Lincoln Group. Their CEO isn\u2019t some impulsive little brat like Denton!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana turned to Ronan. \u201cMr. Fowler, please end Ainsworth Group\u2019s cooperation with the Hamiltons.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ronan walked over, smiling as he nodded. \u201cOf course. If Ms. Barton says so, I\u2019ll make it happen.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lance looked at Adriana in terror. \u201cHow is that possible\u2026 Mr. Fowler\u2026 she\u2014she\u2019s just an orphan. Even if she\u2019s now the Barton Group heir, you don\u2019t have to be afraid of her\u2026 Curtis is dead!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
There was no one backing Adriana now.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Everyone understood Justin was still watching from the sidelines.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cApparently you don\u2019t read financial news. Ms. Barton donated all of Mr. Lincoln\u2019s assets to the Ainsworth Group and is now one of our shareholders. Whatever Ms. Barton says represents our boss.\u201d Ronan pointed upward with a smile.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Everyone present was stunned.\u00a0<\/p>\n
People had always tried to find out who really owned Ainsworth Group, but no one knew the true boss behind it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
With what Ronan just said, it meant Adriana was already connected with the big boss, and they were close.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Even Barton Group\u2019s senior managers were shocked. No one had expected a girl who just returned to the family as an orphan to have connections like this.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cLangford Group is cutting all ties with the Hamiltons as well.\u201d Matthew entered with a cold face.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cGill Group is cutting all ties with the Hamiltons, too.\u201d Marcus followed Matthew in, his tone just as serious.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Everyone at the scene turned to look at Adriana.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Danielle\u2019s show of force had completely backfired and cemented Adriana\u2019s authority in their circle.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lance was shaking as he spoke. \u201cAdriana\u2026 Adriana, I know I was wrong. I was just\u2026 just joking around with you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana let out a cold laugh. \u201cSorry, I\u2019m not joking with you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Danielle looked furious, stalking over with a glare full of venom. \u201cAdriana, you\u2019re just relying on these men. In that sense, Lance wasn\u2019t wrong. You climbed your way up using men. That\u2019s not exactly respectable.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThen let me ask you, Ms. Danielle. What did you rely on to get where you are? Before your dad shamelessly took the Barton name and wormed his way back into the family, you two were living in the slums without a roof over your heads. If my grandpa hadn\u2019t taken pity on you and brought you back, you wouldn\u2019t have been able to afford school. Where would you be now?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Adriana looked at Danielle coldly. She actually has the nerve to call me out for relying on men? \u201cI\u2019m the legitimate heir of the Bartons, my grandpa\u2019s only recognized granddaughter. Who do you think you are?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Danielle\u2019s face was black with rage. Her fingers clenched so tightly they shook. She took a deep breath and let out a cold snort. \u201cNo matter what, I\u2019m still Grandpa\u2019s blood granddaughter. That\u2019s something you can\u2019t change.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana sneered. \u201cReally? Do you want to remind everyone where your dad came from? Is there anyone here who doesn\u2019t know he\u2019s a product of the trash can?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
As soon as she said that, several people who knew Chandler\u2019s origins couldn\u2019t help but laugh.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Chandler was the child a Barton maid got after fishing a used condom out of the trash. He only existed because of some manipulative trickery and shameless persistence.\u00a0<\/p>\n
It was a label Chandler could never shake, and the reason he would always keep his head down.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Chandler was shaking with rage in his seat.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He shot Danielle a warning glare, and she obediently went back to her seat.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYour own plan backfired on you. How amusing.\u201d Kenneth gave Chandler and Danielle a look, then respectfully followed Adriana.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Kenneth had been personally trained by Curtis. His skills at reading the air and smoothing things over were second to none.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAdriana.\u201d Adriana started to head for her seat, but Matthew blocked her path. \u201cCome with me for a\u00a0<\/p>\n
minute.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adriana glanced at Matthew, then her gaze shifted to Natasha, who was standing by Danielle, watching the show. \u201cMr. Langford, Danielle claims I used men to get ahead. Why don\u2019t you explain what\u2019s really between us and what I ever got from you?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Matthew\u2019s face went pale. He knew that was a wound between him and Adriana that would never heal.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He opened his mouth, but it took a long time for him to speak. \u201cEveryone, Adriana and I used to date. She never took anything from me\u2013not even tuition money. She worked part\u2013time to pay for school and even used her scholarship to help students in need. She\u2019s an excellent, hardworking woman.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
In the rich heirs\u2018 circle, Matthew\u2019s status and influence were second only to Curtis. Now that Curtis was\u00a0<\/p>\n
gone,\u00a0<\/p>\n
the Lincoln Group wasn\u2019t so powerful anymore, so no one dared to contradict Matthew.\u00a0<\/p>\n
When the room went silent, Matthew spoke again. \u201cI hope I never hear anyone badmouth my relationship with Adriana again. We broke up peacefully, and I\u2019m actually trying to win her back.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
