My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 24

My family lost tens of millions for no reason because of Sophia’s false accusations and we even became a laughing stalk among the wealthy elites. Even though Kayla knew that Sophia definitely wasn’t capable of going against her family alone and there was someone pulling the strings, she still wanted to tear the latter’s face off immediately after seeing her.

She instinctively walked toward her, but she did not expect to be halted by a pair of hands on her arms.

“Kayla, don’t…” Xyla stopped her in time. “We are in Audistin. We can’t cause any trouble here.”

The elites paid attention to their health and fitness, so the gym almost became an important social venue for them. All of Audistin’s customers came from the rich and powerful families of Bayside City.

However, this was a critical time for Kayla, seeing that the lawsuit had now been concluded and the Harper Family had also apologized to Sophia.

They even started to prepare for the promised charity during her birthday party, so if she troubled Sophia at that moment, someone might cause the situation to be worsened.

We all know that Audistin has a powerful backing. Whoever dares to create a fuss here is very likely to be kicked out instantly in an embarrassing way.

Audistin had a few legal shooting ranges and hunting grounds that were rare in Cethos, which illustrated the power they had.

There was once when a son of an officer had caused trouble in Audistin by violently whacking a personal trainer because of his wealthy background.

However, in the end, the man was beaten to a pulp by a few muscular trainers to a point where his face was swollen and he was even tossed out of the gym in an embarrassing fashion. From that moment on, his family was excluded from Audistin forever.

According to the rumors, the man refused to accept the fact and wanted to rely on his father’s power to take revenge on Audistin, but before he could make a move, his father was quickly taken out. Since then, no one even dared to lay their hands on Audistin.

Kayla knew that she couldn’t cause another commotion, but she just couldn’t suppress the anger inside her, so her whole body started to tremble.

Suddenly, she heard Xyla’s gloating cry. “Apparently Sophia works here!”

After hearing her words, Kayla instantly understood. Sophia works here! Our family just paid her 5 million in compensation, so she shouldn’t be desperate to look for a job here, but here she is! The only explanation for this is that she didn’t get any of the money.

By the looks of it, it has to do with the mastermind behind her because she is just a pawn used by someone to attack us. Now that the false accusation of her pregnancy has passed and my family has settled the matter, she became useless to that mastermind. It’s possible that she didn’t even get paid for what she did!

At that moment, she really felt happy in her heart as a sense of superiority of a wealthy elite suddenly grew. Then, she purposely walked straight to the front of Sophia in the fitness hall. Since she is a part-time student here, I have many ways to embarrass her.

Meanwhile, Sophia was still chatting with Juliette as they had a discussion about yesterday’s economic law class, exchanging ideas on ‘consumer’s rights’ to ‘the significance of taxation’. However, just when they had a stimulating conversation, Kayla and Xyla showed up in front of them.

“A peasant will always be a peasant. Even if you’ve enrolled in Bayside University, you still can’t avoid serving others!” Kayla scorned her immediately.

Sophia could probably guess that Kayla misunderstood something, so she shrugged her shoulders and refused to neither deny nor admit to it. “What’s wrong with earning some money by myself?”

Kayla sneered. “What is it? Have you used up that 5 million we gave you so quickly? Or is it that you didn’t get a penny out of it?”
