Cosset You Forever novel Chapter 1324

"Mom! What's the matter? You are shaking." Dorothy followed and anxiously looked at her angry mother.

Marcella said nothing. She didn't even have the strength to speak right now. She was thinking who might have known about the fact that she was afraid of black cats. She rarely told that to someone.

"Mom, do you think it was the bitch Sophia Lo who sent you the black cat? My instinct tells me that she was behind this." Dorothy's words reminded her mother of something. It seemed that Sophia Lo knew her secret fear about cats.

"I'll investigate into this and if I find out that Sophia Lo did it, I will kill her!" Marcella gnashed her teeth in anger as she was blurting out these words.

Dorothy sensed right away that her mother was extremely exasperated. So she became angry too. "Mom, I'll go find her at once. I won't let her slip away!"

Marcella hurriedly grabbed her daughter by the hand and said, "Stop it! Today is my birthday! It is not the right time. I want this night to be happy and joyful."

"Mom, you don't have to be afraid of her now, for she and Colin have got divorced already. Thus, Colin won't help her anymore. She has nothing! At present, she can only get some support from Hugh. You know Hugh is the son of Uncle Pei and he has always had a good relationship with us." At that moment, the only thing Dorothy wanted to do was to give Sophia Lo a lesson. A really harsh and brutal lesson.

Damn it! How dare Sophia Lo come to her home and steal her thunder?

"listen to me! Don't cause any trouble right now. Do this for your mother. These things should be planned carefully. I don't want our image to be ruined." Marcella was older so she was more mature than her daughter, especially in handling pressure and issues.

But Dorothy still insisted. After letting go of her hand, she made a promise to her mother, "I got it. Mom, please quickly dress yourself up again. The dinner is about to begin."

Meanwhile, Sophia knew she has already succeeded in her mission. She asked Hugh, "Can we go before the party ends?"

Hugh took a look at the people in the hall and said, "Of course we can. Let's say goodbye to Mr. Lien. Do you want to go home already? Are you sure?"

"Yes, I'm sure."

Gregary was talking something about business matters with Colin and some other CEOs at that time. It was a good chance for him and he must grab it right away.

Hugh walked next to Gregary and said, "Excuse me, sir! I must go now because I need to handle some important affairs. I had a very good time and this party really relieved me of my stress this week!"

Gregary took a quick glance at Sophia, then finally fixed his eyes on Hugh. "Of course. Let me do the honor of walking you out the gate. I hope both of you had a good time."

"No, don't bother, Mr. Lien. Thank you! Please do enjoy the rest of the night."

With Colin standing beside him, Gregary didn't insist anymore. He just watched Hugh and Sophia Lo walk towards the gate of his villa.

When they were about to get out, Sophia was stopped on her tracks by a yell. "Sophia Lo!"

She turned back and found Dorothy rushing towards her in anger.

Sophia turned around and tried not to have her emotions affected by her. Then she calmly looked at Dorothy and thought, 'Well, they are pretty good! Smart girl! She has guessed that what happened earlier to her mother was my work!'

Dorothy originally planned to lash out her anger at Sophia right here and right now. But when she saw so many distinguished guests near them, she said in a low voice. "Follow me to the backyard! Now."

Sophia just smirked. "I am busy! Sorry for not keeping you company. I have to go right now. Enjoy the rest of the party." Then she held Hugh's arm and continued to make their way outside.

As they were about a step outside the gates, Dorothy screamed, "Sophia Lo, you bought that cat, didn't you?"
