A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 531

He is tired of waking up every night, feeling suffocated. He is also tired of the empty room.

Leigh closes his eyes and lies on his back, waiting for the plane to take off smoothly.

Passengers come in one after another, looking for their seats. Sofia is also walking in the aisle.

She happens to see Leigh when she tries to find her seat.

"Mr. Leigh." Sofia greets him and smiles. "Are you also going to Country Y for business?"

Leigh opens his eyes and glances at her coldly with contempt and disdain.

He then closes his eyes again and just ignores her.

"Sorry to disturb you." Sofia does not feel embarrassed and apologizes.

Her seat is on the right side of the aisle, which is on the same row as Leigh.

Sofia sits on her seat after she puts away her suitcase. She looks at Leigh from time to time. She looks more severe but less gentle as she is before.

People like Leigh would usually ask his assistant or to book first class in advance if he wants to travel abroad on business.

But why does Leigh fly economy class?

It would take a long time before the plane lands in Country Y. Moreover, it is unnecessary for him to wear suits now if he is on a business trip, not to mention that his suits are wrinkled. He should have left in a hurry, so he doesn't have time to change his clothes.

Sofia is very smart. She understands that Leigh rushes to Country Y because he knows where Jessie is from his look and destination.

Sofia thinks to herself, "Where will he find Jessie? The place John arranges or somewhere else?

After Jessie disappears, even her sugar daddy could not find her, let alone Leigh, who is in Yorkshire, which is far away from Jessie's place.

Sofia wonders if Leigh really finds Jessie.

As the plane takes off, the lights in the cabin are dimmed and it is quiet around. Sofia also closes her eyes and rests.

The plane arrives in Country Y more than ten hours later.

Sofia gets off the plane with the other people. She sees that Leigh is empty-handed and walking very fast. He disappears in the blink of an eye. Sofia is even more certain about why he comes here.

She quickly follows Leigh who gets a car at the side of the road. The car quickly drives away.

Sofia catches the plate number of the taxi. She then gets on another taxi and tells the driver the name of the hotel before she puts on a local SIM card and makes a phone call.

Sofia then tells someone over the phone the plate number she just gets and says, "This is the taxi Leigh gets on. Send someone to keep an eye on that taxi."

It is ten o'clock in the evening when Sofia arrives at the hotel.

She uses her domestic SIM card and calls David after getting checked in.

"Have you arrived in Country Y?"

"I arrived here an hour and a half ago." Sofia sounds tired, "But I was a little tired on the plane, so I didn't call you upon arrival. I am at the hotel now."

"It's okay. It's good to know that you have arrived in Country Y safely." David could tell that she is very tired. He is concerning about her and says, "You can go to bed early after washing up. You still have to see your partner tomorrow morning. I'll call you up so that you will not oversleep."

"Okay." Sofia kisses David over the phone. "You also need to go to bed early. Remember to miss me."

"Of course. I've been thinking about you every day."

Just as Sofia hangs up the phone, she hears someone ring the doorbell.

She knows that Mr. Seles has sent someone to pick her up. She quickly changes her clothes, put on her makeup and then opens the door.

The man who picks up Sofia immediately whispers, "Mr. Seles, I didn't tell her anything."

"Of course you tell me nothing." Sofia drinks a glass of brandy and pours her own wine again. She doesn't seem to be drunk at all. "I looked into the woman that contacted me before and found out her identity."

"Really?" Jonathan seems to be interested and waves his hand to ask other people around him to get out.

He raises his chin and asked Sofia to keep talking.

Sofia doesn't feel shy and says seriously, "I found out that the informant who sent me to Country Z to work as an undercover in the Smith Group is Satsuki, and then I also looked into where she works."

"After I find out the relationship between you and John, I understand why I work as a spy in the Smith Group. It will also be easy for me to know the boss behind the scenes."

She shrugs her shoulders and says in a relaxed voice, "The technology today allows us to find anything. Don't you think so, Mr. Seles?"

"You are really brilliant." Jonathan raises his hands and claps. He twitches his lips and says, "You first track down my informant and then use that clue to find me. Ms. Sofia, you're really amazing!"

Sofia lifts her glass to him and smiles, "Thank you for your appreciation."

Jonathan rubs his chin and teases, "Mr. Jones used to work in the Smith Group for a long period of time but he still couldn't take down Louis. I never expect a stupid man like him could have such a smart daughter."

"Mr. Seles, you're right. He was old and stupid." Sofia smiles slightly and says with an indifferent look, "I also wish he could be as smart as you. He wouldn't die if he accepted me and asked me to help him."

In the end, she sighed regretfully, "Unfortunately, his family property was confiscated."

Sofia is the illegitimate daughter of Mr. Jones, but he never thought about acknowledging Sofia when he was alive. He just gave Sofia's mother some money from time to time and never took care of Sofia.

Sofia always knows who her father is, but he doesn't leave a good impression on her.

She was indifferent when Meghan found her and told her about what happened to Mr. Jones back then. She even thought that it was good that this man went to prison as she might be able to get her portion of the family property.
