“How comical, Sofia sneered as she looked at the older woman before her. “I did not intend to ruin your son. All | wanted was to leave the relationship. | don’t want you forcing my hand. She could not help but smile. This woman thought that something like this would be enough to intimidate her.

Was she banking on the fact that Sofia liked Daniel in the past? What a wicked woman!

“Whether | am forcing your hand or not,” Teresa smiled as she got up. “Only time will tell.” She started walking towards the door. “Ah,” she stopped walking. “Did you know that your father died of apparent suicide as well?”

Sofia froze. No. Her father did not.

Seeing her reaction, Teress smirked. “I really hope you can come by sometime for the wedding planning. | am certain that Daniel would be erst

ar that you decided to actually marry him after everything.”

narrowed here e woman’s back. She never thought that Daniel’s mother would be completely different from spectations. On the outside, Teresa looked like she did not know anything about the business. She had overlooked the hat she was able to stay married to a Beaumont for years!

simply put it, this woman was not simple! However, she is not going to let that woman win!

“That woman might be a member of the Triad,” Alexander said the moment she told him about Teresa. After the woman. left, she focused on her job and chose to forget about her threats. Then she asked Alexander to come get her as they needed to undergo a few treatments with Hugo.

She was scheduled to have the treatment the other day but had to postpone it because of her current circumstances. / much as possible, she did not want to be seen with Alexander at that very crucial moment.

“The Hong Kong “Triad?” Sofia frowned. This was completely unexpected!

1 had suspicions that she is connected to Dr. Mulach and might be the one who poisoned my mother.” “Are you saying that she is-”

“She was my father’s mistress. He got her pregnant when my mother was on her deathbed.”

Sofia did not know how to react. She stared at his handsome side profile as the car moved in the streets of Illinois. He looked rather serious, but this was nothing new as he would sometimes have this face- especially when talking about business

“lam fine,” he looked at her, meeting her eyes before he suddenly reached out and held her hand. “If it would be that easy. | would not have asked for your cooperation.”

Sofia’s lips thinned. He was actually right. If this were easy, she would not have agreed to marry him. However, she did not know how complicated this was when she chose to marry him. At that time, all she could see was a dark abyss brought upon by her anger.

Now, she realized that making a decision while angry was a bad move.

So, does she regret it?

The simple answer is no. Alexander is definitely a very good ally. It would be hard if they were enemies. 18

“Hugo found something that could help you out. Let’s hope it will be good, he promptly changed the topic

“Right... of course,” she immediately nodded. Thank you.” The poison alone is something that she found very difficult to handle. Luckily, Alexander had many connections. “Although this makes me wonder.”

“Hm?” he raised an eyebrow. “Did you suspect that | too... have it?” she asked. “Yes,” he answered without batting an eyelid. “I suspected that you have been poisoned.”

She nodded in response. If only it would be that easy to prove who did it. If only she had a way to trace Dr. Mulach’s connections. She turned her head away as she thought about the connection between Dr. Mulach and Teresa. “Do you think the reason why Teresa had been so confident that she could do something to me is because of her connections?”

Now, everything seemed to click!

Connections with th

the Mafia could easily boost one’s confidence!

However, does this m... ....... inat.... her life is going to be in danger from now on?

“Det

u are staying with me. It would be hard for her to track us.”

ve someone follow us around?” she asked. She had been spending some time with him, but she had yet to ailing her!

been a few instances of people following behind us, but none of them succeeded.” he smirked “Beaumont as a team of people working for us in secret. Deleting our social media presence, dealing with scandals, taking care iness, and everything that you could think of. Just like LH Group, Beaumont Empire has developed a team d protect us all the time.”

Sofia nodded. She knew that her grandmother always had people following her around. She mentioned this the last time that they met. Speaking of her grandmother, Sofia sighed.

After Teresa visited her, she immediately called Eulanda only to be told that she was already out of the country! She was on a jet to the Maldives!

Sofia felt helpless about her grandmother, but a part of her wondered if Eulanda was actually telling her the truth. At time of the call, Sofia chose not to ask any more questions. If her grandmother wanted her to know, then she would probably immediately tell Sofia!

“It could be from anyone. From Lawrence or Daniel or even Charlotte. So. | have actually offended a lot of people lately she does not even know who was trying to hurt her anymore.

“Hmmm...”Alexander nodded. “Either way. Teresa is currently not making huge moves. She would not want to attract any attention now that her son is in the spotlight”

“Does your father know?” she asked.

“Perhaps he shrugged in response. “Sadly, | stopped caring a long time ago about his thoughts”

Sofia sighed inwardly. Right now, she realized something that she never thought of before.

They have no lack of money or properties or things that could attract anyone’s envy, but their family dynamics are extremely complicated.

“Ah... here we are... Alexander said as the car entered what looked like an ordinary parking lot of a building However, the moment they entered, darkness immediately surrounded the car before she saw some LED lights around them.
