“I don’t quite understand what you’re saying, Mrs. Goodwin,” Arthur said. He was someone who had to

get his answers.

“You should know well why my husband’s company went bankrupt, and what methods you used to

threaten the people around him to betray him and set him up! You made my husband owe the bank

one billion, but even if you repaid the debt for us, we won’t be grateful to you. Just leave! You’re still

young, so why are you so cruel?” After Emma finished speaking, she turned around and left.

Outside the door, Arthur’s face stiffened as he remembered what he did to acquire the company. It was

true that the theft of his family heirloom had pushed him into putting a knife on Drake’s partner and

threatening him to set up a trap for Drake to fall into, making him lose his company and even owe the

bank one billion.

Arthur was never one to regret his actions, but for this matter, he did regret a little. If Drake and Emma

knew about this, did their daughter know as well? If she did, was it the reason why she hadn’t

answered his calls?

In the hospital, Sophia had just taken her phone from the nurse. As soon as she turned on the screen,

twenty-eight missed calls appeared in her notifications.

She couldn’t help but feel surprised and quickly clicked in to see who had called, only to find out that it

was all from Arthur. Was this guy crazy? Why did he call her so many times? Just as she was thinking

that, her cell phone rang again with another call from him.

Sophia’s hand jolted, causing her to nearly drop her phone. Fortunately, she scooped it back into her

arms and asked huffily, “Why do you keep calling me?!”

The man on the other end coughed slightly before asking, “Where are you?”

“I’m at work.”

“You’re working?”

“Yes, I’m working now. If you don’t need anything in the future, don’t come looking for me,” Sophia said

righteously.

“I only gave you a short holiday. I didn’t allow you to completely leave my side,” Arthur grumbled

unhappily.

“I don’t think I’ve signed a contract to sell myself off to you! I didn’t put my fingerprint on anything either.

I have my own freedom, and you don’t have the right to interfere,” Sophia rebuked sharply, her back

straightening as she spoke.

Her guilt of losing his heirloom disappeared because of what he had done to her father. If she lost it,

then so be it. If he wanted her to pay for it, she had nothing of value to compensate him, only her own

life.

“Let’s meet!” Arthur suggested, not wanting to argue with her over the phone.

Unexpectedly, Sophia agreed readily. “Fine. I’ll be waiting for you at the cafe next to Presgrave

Corporation.”

She even decided on the venue.

“All right.” Arthur was clearly taken aback.

Sophia took a taxi back to Presgrave Corporation and walked to a high-end cafe next to it. She kept

cheering herself up and thought about many things. In particular, Martha’s words clung to her mind like

a magic spell, telling her to leave Arthur, and that even if she hurt him, she had to leave him.

She was just dazing away, immersed in her own thoughts, when she felt someone coming over. She

raised her head and saw the man who had just come in from outside appearing in her sight, his

handsome figure silhouetted by the light. She felt her heart beat faster uncontrollably, and all of the

women around them had their gazes and hearts stolen away by the man as well.

Arthur saw the girl sitting in a corner at the back instantly. He strode over elegantly, and as he sat down

on the couch, he crossed his long legs as if it was the most natural thing ever. When the waiter came

over, he casually asked for a cup of iced Americano.

Sophia glared at him, her eyes no longer as timid and obedient toward him as before.

“Let me ask you. Did you use any dirty methods to take my dad’s company away?” She immediately

interrogated him.

Arthur nodded. “Yes, I did pull some strings, but that was because…”

“You don’t have to explain; I don’t want to listen.” Sophia pretended to be irritated. “What’s done has

already been done.”

A flash of surprise passed through Arthur’s eyes. This girl is a little different today, he thought.

After his coffee was served, he picked up the cup and took a sip before saying in a low voice, “Then,

how do you want me to pay your family back? Tell me, and I’ll do it.”
