Chapter 160
Sophia: [I can get your inheritance rights back in three months.]
Yandel’s heart was beating fast when he saw the message, but he quickly calmed down.
Yandel: [How can you help me?]
Sophia: [That’ll cost extra. Will you pay me 300 thousand?]
Yandel hesitated, but his fingers moved by themselves, and he sent a yes back.
Yandel remembered how Sophia saw right through him the first time they met, and how she even helped him get in touch with someone he trusted most in the Dalton family. That made him trust her.
Yandel thought, ‘Even if it’s a scam, it’s just 300 thousand dollars. Think of it as paying for her help to get me back into the Dalton family. He sent her another 300 thousand dollars.
Sophia: [Yandel, you’re the best! Hope you get richer. Mason has a mistress named Octavia. What you’re looking for is with her.]
Yandel’s breath caught and his face turned pale. He started to find Octavia. Sophia closed the chat when a voice message from Dorian came through: “Sophia, were you just on the subway?”
Sophia quickly denied: “No.”
Dorian said, “But from every angle, the person in that video looks exactly like you–same clothes, same shoes, same hat. The video is everywhere now!”
Sophia stayed calm and said, “That wasn’t me. Stop making things up.”
Dorian still thought it was her, but since she wouldn’t admit it, he dropped it. “By the way, Sophia,” he said, “I found some old college photos from my brother–guess what? Miles is in them! I’ll send them to you.”
Dorian shared a link with her–she didn’t even need to open it to know what it was. Then he sent a photo. She tapped to see it, and her eyebrows furrowed. There were five people in the photo. Guardian wasn’t there.
Just as she was about to ask him about it, Dorian sent another voice,message: “That’s Miles on the far left.”
Sophia zoomed in on the photo, her frown getting deeper. She thought, ‘He doesn’t look anything like Guardian. Did he get plastic surgery?‘
Right then, Maelis called. When Sophia answered, she heard Maelis laughing loudly. “This is so funny! Sophia, since when did you start taking the subway? That poor old man was just really unlucky to run into you!”
Sophia, as calm as always, said, “I wasn’t on the subway.”
“Come on,
that was you on the subway! Your outfit was exactly the same–don’t lie to me, I know it was you.”
Sophia said flatly, “No, you’re wrong.”
She looked at her outfit, thinking about changing it/But then she thought, ‘If I just deny it, what can they really do? Why waste a good set of clothes?”
But Maelis just wouldn’t let it go. “Stop lying–that was definitely you. I could tell. Do you think I’m stupid?” she pressed.
Sophia shot back to shut her up, “If you weren’t stupid, would you spend over ten years chasing that jerk?”
On the line, Maelis was silent for a few seconds before saying, “That’s a low blow.”
“Just telling the truth,” Sophia said bluntly.

Chapter 160
Maelis went completely quiet, and Sophia felt relieved. “I’m not talking to you anymore, Meelis kaid before hanging up, lopte p sent and saw all the comments.
(This girl is next–level savage. Finally saw someone put a seat hogger in their place to satisfying!)
(Honestly, this girl is crazy—but in a good way!]
[This is so crazy and satisfying–best stress relief ever.]
[She is so brave. I’ve also had to give up my seat for an old person before. After a long tiring day at work, I wasn’t feeling well. When I was pressed to gre up my seat, I just felt like crying. To avoid trouble, I gave in.]
[Don’t hold back. As long as it makes you feel good, that’s what matters!]
There was also criticism from the online comments.
A guy wrote: [She didn’t respect the elder. She was scaring him like that—what if it made him sick? I really hope others don’t copy this.]
That guy was quickly roasted by others.
[Did you see how fast that old man ran away? He looked more energetic than most young people. Seriously, since when are entitled old folks on the subway rare?]
[We all paid to get in. After a long day, why should we give up our seats? Since when does being old mean you’re automatically right?!
[Maybe you should really think about what it takes to earn respect as an elder.]
Many netizens had seen entitled old passengers hogging seats on the subway–stories were everywhere, and sometimes it got physical. Every time these videos came out, people got so angry.
After waiting so long, someone finally put a seat hogger in his place. Everyone felt the girl in the video was venting their frustration. Sophia watched quietly and closed the page.
After leaving the hospital, Sophia bought coffee and a box of cream puffs. Then she saw two other girls also buying coffee, looking at their phones and
then at her, whispering to each other.
