Sophie watched Gordon's retreating figure for a while. His frame was slender, and for such a frail man to have borne the weight of the Aldridge family for years was indeed daunting.
"Sir, we have brought her here." At that moment, a security guard dressed in black led a flamboyantly dressed woman over.
Sophie, thinking she was in for some entertainment, hid to the side pretending to sip her drink.
Upon seeing Gordon, the woman’s face turned shy, her eyes filled with seduction.
Sophie remembered that this woman had just tried to get close to Harold downstairs, only to be pushed away by him.
"Mr. Gordon, did you call me up here for any instructions?" The woman's voice lowered, so sultry that it could make one's body melt.
Unable to resist, Sophie stole a few glances. The woman was nearly clinging to Gordon, who remained stoic with a faint smile on his face.
However, his smile was tinged with coldness.
"Ah! What are you doing? Let go! Let go of me!"
Suddenly, the woman’s arms were pinned, and she was pushed to the floor, her face losing all its previous charm and turning into sheer terror.
"Tell the person behind you that if he thinks he can use a woman to extract information from the Aldridge family, he is sorely mistaken."
Gordon's voice was as if dipped in ice, devoid of any warmth. His faint smile was now distinctly sinister. He paused, then added with a smile, "Never mind, I'll let my people handle it."
The woman, still struggling initially, turned pale the moment she heard his words.
With a mere gesture from Gordon, the security guard grabbed the woman's hair and threw her down from the second floor.
A scream followed, and Sophie's heart trembled. This was the second floor; falling wouldn't kill someone, but it would likely cripple her for life.
