Howard never expected that when he approached Sophia and turned off his own i mic, hers was still on

As a result, their conversation on the second floor was broadcast live to the viewers, sparking a frenzy in the chat

[Sophia, get Insil How dare you yell at Howard? Watch out, or I’ll throw acid on you.

Sophia is so ungrateful. How could she talk to Howard like that? Ladies, let’s pool some money and hire someone to teach her a lesson.

[Howard is such a good person, and she made him

him so angry. Howard, don’t be upset. Come to me, and comfort you

From now on, I’m officially an anti fan of Sophia. Ladies, let’s form a group to take her down. How dare she mess with Howard? fil make sure she regrets it.]

Howard’s fans are way too intense. It’s honestly terrifying.|

Most people assumed Howard’s fans were just venting and didn’t take their threats seriously, despite how alarming they sounded.

[Wait. Is this how the two siblings usually talk to each other, or is it just for the show?j

(I knew Saphia wasn’t treated well at home, but didn’t expect it to be this bad. Why do I feel oddly sympathetic?

[Howard said Sophia was targeting Yvette, Well, maybe she is, but can you blame her? Yvette is the adopted daughter of the Sampson family, benefiting from their misdeeds. And Howard’s trying to distance Yvette from the Sampson family with just one sentence? That’s shameless

(I love watching Sophia roast. Yvette. She’s so sharp and clear headed, a true expert at calling people out. Who cares about being liked? It’s overrated. Sophia really speaks for all of us working–class folks. You pay for the work, and that’s it. Nothing wrong with that]

[Guys, don’t get too emotionally invested. It’s probably just for the show.

Show effect or not, let’s wait and see

The day passed quickly, and Sophia found herself trending twice of social media with the hashtags: Howard went mad on the show], [Howard and Sophia’s real sibling dynamic), and Sophia’s mental state is amazing.

After returning to her room, Sophia stayed there for the rest of the day. She only came out in the aftemoon to sign a package.

Once she brought the package upstairs, she shut the door and opened it to reveal a collection of random metal parts. She spent the entire afternoon tinkering with them.

It was past nine in the evening when the day’s livestream finally ended. Jonathan knocked on the door. “Sophia, can we talkt

Sophia let him in. As Jonathan stepped inside, he saw her sitting at her desk, fiddling with some metal parts he couldn’t make sense of “Put that aside for now. Let’s have a proper conversation,” he said.

Without even turning her head, Sophia continued working. “Go ahead,” she replied.

Jonathan sighed, both helpless and frustrated. “I know your mom and I have neglected you over the years. I thought about what you said today, and you’re right. It was our fault. Fl make it up to you.”

Hearing this, Sophia finally set down the metal piece and turned to lace him, hereyes lighting up “So, how much are you planning to compensate me?”

she asked.

Jonathan froze, his chest tightening as he struggled to find the right words,

Sophia continued, “I mean, I already have most of what they have, but I wouldn’t mind having more, I’ll take whatever you give me ”

Jonathan pressed his aching temples. “Sophia, why is i hat all you care about these days is money?”

Sophia paused and then gave & peculiar smile. “No love from you or Mom, so why not make up for it with money? If you think money’s so meaningless, Jonathan, why not give me more? I’ll gladly take it.”

Jonathan felt his chest fighters further. “We’re family, Sophia. Can’t we talk about something other than money for once?”

“You just had to stir things up in front of Dante, demanding 3 million dollars like it was nothing. Now see what you’ve caused. The deal’s off. Do you even realize how much work I put into this deal! Now it’s all gone because of you.”

Sophia frowned, her expression serious. “Honestly, Jonathan, I don’t think it’s a big deal. If the dear’s off, it’s probably for the best”

“Jonathan, don’t forget that his son ended up in jail because of me. Do you really think he’d hand you such a sweet deal? He’s not stupid. This is clearly trap to screw you over.

“Look, Jonathan, I know making money isn’t easy for you, but Dante’s project is a disaster waiting to happen. I’m just trying to save you from falling into

Her tone was dead serious, her expression unwavering.

Jonathan’s face turned so red that it looked like it might explode. His chest heaved, but he couldn’t get a single word out.

Sophia continued with concern, “Hey, dodging a disaster like that isn’t so bad, right? Good projects will come your way eventually. Jonathan, your luck is just around the corner.”

As if her “kindness” wasn’t enough, Sophia added with a smirk, “Oh, and I got 3 million dollars in compensation from Dante as an apology. That’s real money, isn’t it? So, technically, we still came out ahead”

Three million dollars doesn’t even come close to the Anesville project!‘ Jonathan thought, his eyes rolling. He couldn’t take it anymore. if this conversation kept going, he feared this ungrateful daughter might actually be the death of him.

“Oh, no! Jonathan, why are your eyes rolling back?” Sophia exclaimed in mock concern.

“Don’t pass out here! If you drop dead in my room, they’ll all think I killed you for the inheritance. I won’t be able to explain myself Quil your room!” She spoke as she hurried to open the door.
