Chapter 55

“How comical, Sofia sneered as she looked at the older woman before her. “I did not intend to ruin your son. All I wanted was to leave the relationship. I 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 I 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. I 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

“I am fine,” he looked at her, meeting her eyes before he suddenly reached out and held her hand. “If it would be that easy. I 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.

“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 I too… have it?” she asked.
