From their behavior, she could now be certain of one thing, her true parentage was known only to Helen. No one else realized that Samantha was still the real daughter of the Rivers family.
Adrian stormed out of Sloane’s room in a fury, only to be intercepted at the end of the hallway by Samantha. Her slender fingers toyed with his tie, brushing lightly against his Adam’s apple. “Adrian, why so angry?” She tilted her face up, her eyes shimmering with watery allure. “That wretch refused you?”
Half his anger vanished on the spot; his tone softened without him noticing. “She’s too shrewd-she won’t fall for anything.”
“Don’t be impatient…” Samantha tugged him toward her room, her skirt swaying, releasing a faint perfume in its wake. She shut the door, turned the lock with a flick of her wrist, and when she faced him again, all traces of softness were gone; her eyes were sharp as blades.
“If she won’t play along…” Samantha pulled two crystal glasses from the wine cabinet, her crimson nails tapping lightly against the rim. “…then we’ll make sure she has no choice but to comply.” As she handed him a glass, her fingertip deliberately brushed against the back of his hand.
Adrian’s Adam’s apple bobbed; he downed a gulp of wine. “What’s your plan?”
Samantha gave a low laugh and suddenly straddled his lap, cupping his face in her hands. “First we follow dad’s plan. Once I’ve learned her medical techniques, I’ll use them to control her. She won’t dare defy us then.”
Adrian’s arm slid around her waist as he nodded. “You make sense.” A flicker of doubt crossed his face. “But Sammy… since when do you know medicine? And this ‘important figure’ you mentioned-can she really be trusted?”
A mysterious smile tugged at Samantha’s lips. Her fingertip traced lazy circles on his chest. “You don’t believe me?”
She leaned close to his ear, her breath warm against his skin. “That person saved me back then; otherwise I’d have died at Mason’s hands. She’s the one who taught me everything I know…”
“Of course, I believe you.” Adrian’s grip around her waist tightened unconsciously.
Samantha’s fingers slipped between his shirt buttons. “Once we secure the shares, Father will finally see your worth…” Suddenly, she pinched him hard. “But you’d better not abandon me when that time comes.”
Adrian’s breathing turned rough. “How could I ever…”
Satisfied, Samantha smiled; she was just about to speak again when Adrian shoved her down onto the sofa. She didn’t resist. Instead, the tip of her stiletto heel brushed teasingly along his calf. “So eager? I wasn’t finished yet…”
Upstairs, Sloane removed her listening device, her eyes glinting with ice. So the two of them are entangled after all.
No doubt their shameless boldness came from the fact that they weren’t blood-related. And yet…
Would Helen collapse if she found out? Would she regret the choice she made back then?
