Mr. Chairman’s Devious Wife by Brey Mitchylle

Chapter 14
“You just fired your driver?” Karina lifted her eyebrow the moment she walked
inside Sofia’s office. As always, she was wearing a pristine pencil skirt, this time
in pink.
“How did you know that?" Sofia asked.
“Everyone was talking about it outside.”
Sofia nodded.
“Many thought it was because of your upcoming birthday.” Karina lifted her
eyebrow. “What are you scheming?”
“Nothing,” Sofia smiled. Slowly, she is going to get rid of the people that
Lawrence planted around her. The driver was simply the first of the many. “Sit. Is
there anything I can help you with?” She leaned back in her seat and smiled at
her friend.
Karina snorted. Then she sat opposite Sofia. “I found something about that
Doctor..."
“Tell me more...” Sofia said.
“He has a pattern of taking rich clients in that... We might be looking at fraud
here.” Karina quickly pulled her tablet from her bag and handed it to her. “I
already sent a copy of these to your email, it's encrypted. You should know how
to open it.”
Sofia nodded without saying a word. She started reading the documents, her
face turning uglier and uglier by the minute. Not too long ago, she asked Karina
to help her. She was certain that no one would suspect anything as Karina and
she had been very close in the past. Right now, Sofia does not know who she
could trust so she has been very careful with her moves.

Of course, she already told Alexander about this matter and the latter assured
her that he would ask his people to check out Karina. While a little. part of Sofia
did not want this to happen, she also understood that it was still better to be safe
than be sorry later on.
After a few minutes of uncomfortable silence, Sofia lifted her gaze and stared at
her friend. “I think it is best that we should stop seeing each other in public. At
least... we limit it.”
Karina's face immediately turned serious. Without waiting for her to respond,
Sofia added. “I have a secured phone...” she took a small box from the drawer.
“Untraceable.” She pushed it towards her friend.
“You think it is getting too dangerous,” Karina stated. She is a smart woman. She
immediately understood why Sofia asked her to do this.
“You see... I do not even know how dangerous this could get.” And Sofia did not
want anything to happen to another important person in her life.
Karina pursed her lips. She stared at Sofia and sighed. “I understand.” She took
the box and carefully placed it in her bag.
“I think we should start seeing each other after working hours. Perhaps, over
some drinks.” Sofia said. They were not experts in espionage, but both of them
knew that Lawrence already held a large amount of connections—thanks to being
a Lockhart for a long time. The man must. have already planned everything,
planted all the necessary people, prepared all cover stories, and done all
preparation in secret. Sofia knew that Lawrence was a very smart man. It would
be strange if he did all these things without prior preparations or confidence that
he would win.
Again, this was going to be a long game of chess, and Sofia was prepared to
gamble everything that she had.
“As for the annual meeting...” Karina smiled. “I already prepared everything.”

“Including the patents?” Sofia asked. “That was fast.”
“Do not underestimate a strong independent woman who is hell-bent on making
the ones who betrayed her friend suffer.” Karina sneered.
“Thank you,” Sofia said. If this was a normal day, she would have started teasing
Karina. The woman had studied all her life and had long declared. herself single
for life. It was a silly notion, yet Karina had yet to find someone. She had been on
dates but refused to settle down with anyone! Because of this, Karina's single—
since-birth status had become the butt of jokes between them.
“If you really wanted to thank me, then send me that cake... strawberry.”
“I know... I know...” Sofia nodded. “I'll send you two.”
Hearing this, Karina gave a satisfied smirk. “The proof that you gave me was
quite helpful.”
“Was it?" Sofia turned her head away. The proof that Karina was talking about
was the trail of Lawrence’s scheme given by Alexander. It was not exactly a
surprise that Karina found everything was true, and if she would not do
something to prevent it then... her name would be ruined in the design industry.
“So you are not going to tell me who is helping you...."” Karina gave her a playful
smile.
Sofia pursed her lips. She knew that this was coming. After all, Karina was a very
smart woman. How could she not figure it all out? “What made you so sure that it
was not me?” Sofia asked, smiling.
“Because... you are soft.” Karina shrugged. “The moment you heard about the
betrayal, I am certain you would have drunk yourself to sleep and cried in your
bed. Then call me the very next day.”

“How did she know? Sofia blinked. Was she really that... predictable?

Yes,” Sofia smiled. In fact, she was
not supposed to join this meeting,
but as the Interim CEO, she had to.
She did not tell Karina that Alexander
already prepared everything for her
so she was not that worried about
this meeting. This was because she

Right now, her emotions had been in turmoil, her head was still a bit sluggish and
she did not want to think of the man who practically helped her escape her
supposed doom.
After a quick discussion, Karina decided to leave and the two agreed to limit their
interaction from now on. Sofia did not want to make Lawrence suspect anything.

Amores suddenly interrupted her
stupor. Without saying a word, Sofia
approached the red roses that were
placed in a beautiful fase. She
opened the card placed on top of it.
On it, was a dinner invitation for

Sofia almost snorted right then and there. However, she still maintained a smile
as she took a picture of the card and sent it to her dear sister. “Dinner?” she
asked before sending another message. Daniel.invited met and I thought it would
be nice if you joined us.”
[Alright...] The response came almost immediately.
Sofia smiled. She looked at the roses and said. “Keep it on your table.” Then she
turned around and went inside her office. Sofia and Daniel will suffer the
consequences of their actions very soon.
