“They already left?” Daniel's cars started humming with dirty thoughts when the
security of the restaurant informed him that everyone had already left- all
customers. What about Sofia Where the hell is she?
Earlier, only her secretary left, so he thought she would be going out with Jenny
Thomas.
He was wrong.
It turns out he had been waiting here for nothing!
He opened his phone and immediately dialed his brother's number. Sadly,
Alexander was not answering his call.
“Damn it!” Daniel hissed before going back to his car. It was already the dead of
the night. He had been waiting there for hours thinking Sofia woul
igree to talk to him given all his effort!
What more did she want?
Why was she blaming him for a mistake that he made because of her? Sofia had
been very busy with her work- both of them were. However, unlike Charlotte, who
made an effort to travel to him and see him, Sofia stayed rooted in this damn city,
working her ass off for something that she would eventually get!
Besides, once they got married, he was already planning on asking her to stop
working. Wouldn't it be good if he worked for LH Group instead?
He started his car and disappeared into the night.
Meanwhile, Alexander was staring at Sofia’s sleeping frame on the bed.
“You called me here in the dead of the night just to see if she’s alright?” Hugo
frowned. He was sitting opposite his friend. “Didn't I already tell you? She might
have a fever, and that's normal. Her body is fighting something.”
“Lower your voice. You are making too much noise.” Alexander said. “Besides...
did you want me to call another physician?”
Hugo immediately stopped talking. Obviously, he wouldn't want anyone to know
that there was something inside Sofia’s body.
“Let's go outside...” Alexander said, and the two went to his study “Did you notice
any improvements?” he was asking about Sofia’s mother, Eunice.
“Unfortunately not,” Hugo made himself comfortable on Alexander's plush sofa.
“However, this is already within my expectations. She had ingested the poison for
years. She might not be as worse as your mother but I do not see her waking up
very soon.”
Seeing how Alexander's face darkened at the mention of his mother, Hugo
added, “There is no need to worry. We are doing our best to reverse the effect of
the poison. We already stopped it from spreading but the damage has been
done.”
“And that damn Dr. Tan?” Alexander asked as he poured some wine into his own
cup.
“He is slowly giving away information about his connections in Asia, but we do
not have anything concrete. The fact that he is working with them is making it
harder.”
Alexander narrowed his eyes. After everything that the man did, he is actually
secretly working for the CIA now? However, this does not surprise him anymore.
“Did he reveal anything about the Triad?” he asked.
“Not for now. But I believe he would not have a choice but to reveal something
about them soon...”

Alexander nodded. He leaned against the table.
“You really do like her “Hugo noted as he got up and got his own drink.
“What made you think that I don’t
“What about Zoe?" Hugo asked
“What about her
“She has yet to leave the country. Your good mother had been trying to invite her
back, but she had been refusing everything
“What makes you think I am interested in knowing anything about her?”
Alexander asked. Hugo, Zoe, and Alexander were once really close when they
were younger. However, things have changed.
“Right. Of course. Lapologize
“There is nothing to talk about”
“Come on
as he took a sip of his wine. “Then let's talk about your wife...” Hugo smiled.
Why are you being so nosy?” Alexander glared at him.
“How am I being nosy
However, Alexander did not give him an answer. Instead, he finished his wine
and opened his laptop so he could start working once again. He canceled a few
meetings in the past few days so he could be with Sofia. So now, he is doing his
best to get all those money back.
Seeing him busy with work. Hugo snorted. “I am leaving. Don't call me again for
a cold or fever. The expected recovery will be a day or two. Let her body fight the
poison. No need to panic. This will not affect her uterus.” Hugo said before giving
Alexander a meaningful smile.
LOCKHART MANSION
“Good very good...” Lawrence snorted as he heard news about Charlotte who
agreed to settle down in Spain for the time being. While many of Charlotte's fans
actually believed that she was not a cheater, those images still affected her clean
and pure reputation in some way.
It would be better if she stayed away for some time and let the people forget..
However, this was not enough to make Lawrence calm down.
Sofia was now showing signs of disobeying him, and he was not happy about it.
He needed to teach her a few lessons.
“I need you to tell Mr. Oh about the previous plan...” Lawrence instructed Min as
he started tapping his fingers on the table in front of him. He knew that Eulanda
was not in this country. She’s busy enjoying the last years of her life. She had
been socializing and attending events abroad. “We need to have it implemented
as soon as possible.”
That woman was very scheming, so Lawrence chose not to lower his guard.
However, this does not mean that he is not going to make his move!
Eulanda’s tentacles in the company have weakened. She was no longer the boss
that she thought she was.
Min nodded and reminded him of his meeting. This time, Lawrence got up and
left the mansion with Min. Soon enough.
at Lawrence walked side and saw an old man sitting alone inside a cubicle
To think that you would actually meet me at this hour.” Lawrence started The
restaurant was already closed, and no one ele ande from the three of them was
there. “In this place.” Lawrence looked around
The restaurant was a Chinese joen you could tell by the red lanterns hanging
around and the little golden cat statue by the
vetranie, warning its pas The place had this cozy vibe with wooden tables and
chairs, and those paper placemats with Minese podiac signs on thems
High from the hanging lanes cast a warm glow, making the place feel mysterious.
The walls were decked with med pictures of Chinese landscapes and some
calligraphy
However, what surprised him as smally the fact that this was located in the
middle of the city. He thought William Clarence would meet him somewhere more
secretive. But he chose to meet him in the middle of the city.

“However, it seems that the heiress of LH Group is not as stupid as you think.”
The heires? Was he here to talk about Sofa He expected William to talk about
Eulanda instead!
“She is working with someone and that someone is not her grandmother

“See for yourself.”
Lawrence opened the tablet and almost immediately his expression changed.
“This is-
“She’s staying in the same building as Alexander Beaumont. He had been
secretly protecting her with bodyguards. They are also driving to work almost
everyday”
The Beaumont Family Lawrence's expression darkened. Was Sofia working with
Daniel's brother instead of Eulanda?

Lawrence said nothing as he stared
at the image of the man sitting next
to Sofia in the car. Everyone knew
how ruthless that family was. In the
past, the Beaumont Family only had a
few hotels in the US. However, they

takeovers. The content is on
