A Spoonful of Sugar: Don't Beg for Love novel Chapter 592

Sophia's cry of alarm brought Rickard out of his reverie. He let out a sigh and said, "The company is not very stable now. I'll have the driver take you home in a moment. Don't come out these days. Come back when the company's situation is resolved."

However, Sophia was trembling as she scrolled down to the bottom of the news and saw the machine's serial number.

This is far from a simple matter. If we fail to handle it, the Duval Group will not only face bankruptcy, but those involved could also be imprisoned."

Her eyes welled up with tears as she confessed, "I saw the machine's serial number marked on the contract given to Hesper before. I took a photo of the data and sent it to Mother. She said she could make Hesper suffer a big loss. I never thought things would be so serious..."
