447.Chapter 447

When Sophia married Easton, his mother, Vivian, wasn’t present at the wedding, and the Foster family never mentioned her around Sophia.

But Sophia knew her. She had seen Vivian’s photo in the Foster family’s big family portrait, and even the wedding photo of Vivian and Easton’s father.

The woman in front of her, who was almost fifty, was breathtakingly beautiful. Her gaze was proud and distant, and her refined features hadn’t been touched by time at all.

Easton was right. He really did take after his mother. Not just in looks, but even that aura about him was just like hers. “Virginia, that’s too kind,” Sophia said in a cool tone.

Vivian smirked, tilting her chin. “Have a seat.”

Sophia strode over to the chair in front of the desk and sat down gracefully.

“Ms. Roth, you’re young and talented, and your work really stands out. When I was going through all the designers’ submissions, I picked yours right away. I had no idea it was you at the time,” Vivian said.

That much was true. When Vivian first decided to work with Rothea Designs, she really had no clue that Sophia was the design director behind it all.

But once she found out, her intentions shifted.

Sophia took Vivian’s words with a grain of salt, but she didn’t let it bother her. After all, this was just a business partnership, and she had no interest in getting tangled up with Vivian any more than necessary.

“Virginia, thank you so much for giving Rothea Designs this opportunity. You won’t be disappointed in our service or our capabilities,” Sophia said.

Vivian raised an eyebrow. She thought, ‘This young lady really was different. The moment she walked in and saw me, was surprised for a split second, but then she was back to being cool as ever.

‘Even while talking, she kept that graceful, unruffled vibe.

‘Compared to her, Allison is in a completely different league.

‘But even if Allison is not much, at least she knew how to follow orders like a loyal pup.’

Sophia didn’t linger in Virginia’s office. Once the small talk was out of the way, they got straight down to business. For their first meeting, the business side went off without a hitch.

After that, Sophia handed all the follow-up work to Jason. She had zero interest in having too much contact with Vivian. After Sophia left Suncrest Holdings with Jason, Vivian called Allison. “Proceed as planned. I’ve got things handled on my end.”

Just then, her assistant knocked and came in.

“Ms. Scott, I’ve booked our tickets back to Cambul. We’ll be leaving next Monday, and I’ve changed our first stop from Harlinton to Jenston,” the assistant said.

Vivian nodded slightly. “Alright, have someone quietly reach out to the matriarch of the Foster family in Jenston ahead of time. As the daughter-in-law, it’s tradition to pay my respects to her first.”

“Yeah,” her assistant replied.

Vivian pulled an old wedding photo out of her drawer, a mocking smile curling at her lips. “Sebastian, I’m coming back for everything that belongs to me. I’m not going to make things easy for the Foster family.”

‘Blood means nothing. In the end, it’s all about money and power, Vivian thought.

Back at the hotel, Sophia called May. “Attorney May, still lounging in bed?”

May answered, her voice lazy as she lay in bed. “Wow, you finished with Virginia that fast?”

“Yeah,” Sophia replied.

May stretched. “So, does that mean you’re off the successfully unlocke

“Work’s still on for the next few days, but nothing urgent. Jason’s got the follow-ups covered. Come downstairs, let’s go get some breakfast,” Sophia said.
