She was about to speak, but stopped herself.

If her mother's death was indeed a result of foul play, and if it was somehow connected to Hawthorne, then she could only rely on Liam to uncover the truth.

Seeing Sophia remain silent, Liam said to Jorah, "I'll leave this to you. I'll take her back." The car stopped, and Sophia realized that Liam had brought her back to his villa.

She knew what her silence meant tonight, and what Liam wanted from her.

Liam got out of the car, opened the door for Sophia, and seeing her sitting there without moving, he smirked and asked with a laugh, "Are you scared now?"

Hearing this, Sophia looked up and met his dark eyes. She smiled slightly and said, "No, I just haven't made up my mind yet."

She wasn't sure if she wanted to make a deal with this man in front of her.

"Well, then let's go inside and think about it." He said with a smile as he put his arm around her waist and led her towards his villa.

Once inside, Sophia saw Liam heading upstairs. She stop

    Just as one wave subsided, another rose up. Before the partnership with PRE had been resolved, a group of journalists suddenly gathered at the entrance of Jorah's company.The internet was flooded with reports about Liam's fiancee, who had allegedly fallen in love with someone else before they were even married, complete with pictures.Sophia was on her way to work when Anna called her and told her about it.When she opened the news webpage, she saw a picture of her and Finnian embracing on the front page, as the headline.Her first thought was what Liam would think if he saw this news. But she realized that there wasn't even a call from him on her phone.She tightly held her phone, with a self-deprecating smile on her lips. Suddenly, her phone vibrated, and she instinctively looked at it, only to find it was Jorah calling."Uh... Hi Sophia. Um, where are you now?" His tone of voice sounded extremely anxious. "On my way to work.""I'm giving you the day off today. Go back and lay lo

  • ONE NIGHT STAND WITH MY EX'S UNCLE    CHAPTER 14 Cancelled Partnership

    "I'm sorry, Finnian. I have a case to rush this afternoon, so I'm afraid I can't make it."Sophia didn't want to get too involved with Finnian. They only knew each other during college, and their relationship was not that close.Finnian heard the refusal in Sophia's words and was silent for a while before saying somewhat self-deprecatingly, "I just knew you were getting married and wanted to treat you to a meal. I remember when we were in college, I always seemed to be rejected whenever I had asked you out for a meal."In college, Finnian had many pursuers around him, and Sophia didn't remember when he had asked her out for a meal, but she seemed to recall that it did actually happen.However, since he had already said this much, it seemed a bit heartless to refuse him again, and they would still have to work together in the future, so Sophia thought it would be good to be amicable."Sophia, I don't mean anything else. I just want to wish you well." Finnian reasured her."Okay, send m

    Sophia was confused. What's going on? Why is everyone changing how they treet me?It wasn't until she sat down at her desk, opened her computer, and saw the news article that she suddenly realized that her engagement with Liam had been published by the media.She was surprised to see that Liam had acted so quickly and already made their engagement public. Now she didn't even have a chance to back out.As she sat there feeling dejected, her manager approached her and said, "Sophia, a business partner has arrived. Come with me to greet them."Sophia followed her manager into the meeting room.But when she saw Finnian sitting inside, she widened her eyes in surprise and asked, "Is that you Finnian? Why are you here?"Finnian stood up, smiled gently at Sophia, and reached out his hand towards her. "Sophia, long time no see."Seeing that Finnian knew Sophia, the manager felt that today's project was going well.After a brief exchange of pleasantries, they began discussing work.After the w

    Sophia couldn't be bothered with Ava today. Her gaze fell directly on Hawthorne, who hadn't said a word since she entered the room. "Dad, let's talk."Hawthorne remained calm and nonchalantly responded, "Go ahead. Tell me what you want from me?"Afraid that Ava would interfere, Sophia wanted to talk to Hawthorne alone. "I want to talk to you privately."Ava immediately sneered, "What? Is there something we can't hear? Dad, don't listen to her nonsense."Hawthorne clearly agreed with Ava. He frowned and impatiently said, "We can talk here. We're family, why hide anything?" Seeing that Hawthorne wouldn't budge, Sophia had no choice but to take a deep breath, gather her courage, and say, "When do you plan to give me the 10% share of the Wyane family that my mom left me?""Dad, I told you she had ulterior motives. She actually came to ask you for shares?" Ava exclaimed in disbelief, looking at Sophia.Hawthorne's face turned pale too. He stared at Sophia, as if he wanted to poke holes in

    Sophia looked up and saw Ava walking towards her with a red wine glass in her hand.In front of her, Ava's eyes were full of mockery: "Sophia my poor sister! Did Liam abandon you? And you planned to come here and find a new rich man to support you?""Ava, watch your words."Sophia warned her."Why should I watch my words? Fortunately, Axel recognized what you were early on and dumped you for me. Hey, think about it, it really is pitiful that you're here. You have nothing now so what can you do to compete with me?" Ava deliberately raised her eyebrows and said that with a sharp tone of voice as if she was trying to stab Sophia with her words.Although Sophia didn't like Axel that much, being dumped for her sister in front of so many people made her lose her standing. Even if Sophia was forgiving, she couldn't remain indifferent to this.Sophia looked directly at her and said sarcastically, "Ava, are you acting like this because there are too few people who have seen the video of you and
