Revenge On My First Love novel Chapter 294

His words made Aria gape at him in disbelief, wondering if he was out of his mind to even salivate at Drake's girlfriend.

She stood directly in front of Sophia protectively to block his way. "Rodney, you do have guts."

Rodney grinned at her, "Haha... Aria, are you jealous?"

"My ass! Stop bothering us. Fuck off!"

"I know you are jealous as you still love me. All right. I can stop pursuing Sophia. Shall we have dinner together?"

When Aria was pregnant, she realized what a scumbag this man was. However, he impressed her again today.

"You wish! Let's go, my dear sister-in-law," Aria said to Sophia and took her away.

'Sister-in-law?'

Rodney heard how Aria addressed Sophia and realized Sophia was still Drake's girlfriend. However, Drake didn't work at this company. Rodney believed he had more opportunities to gain Sophia's heart as he was closer. Drake wouldn't be able to do anything in that case.

The thought brought a triumphant smile to her face.

...

Chloe bid the other two farewell. Sophia and Aria sat in the car.

"Sophia, you must be careful with Rodney. He always tries every possible means to take any girl he likes."

Sophia knew it well.

"I'll try my best to kick him out."

"Ehn."

However, to Sophia's surprise, Rodney signed several sales agreements as a newcomer.

Initially, Sophia thought there must be something behind it, and yet she didn't find anything fishy after checking several times.

But it made sense. If Rodney hadn't been competent, Spencer wouldn't have recruited him.

Drake hadn't returned home yet when Sophia and Aria returned home, so the three women chitchatted.

When Drake arrived home, it was past ten in the evening.

Sophia had returned to their bedroom. Emma and Aria were ready to go to bed.

As Drake entered the room, he pounced at Sophia and hugged her tightly.

"Did you miss me, Sophia?"

Sophia sniffed. "Did you drink?"

"Yup."

"It should be a special gathering as you don't usually drink."

Drake chuckled, "I'm happy today. You know?"

Sophia looked at him in surprise.

"Zain gave a Picasso's painting that Olivia bought from the auction to the head of senior officials. Guess what happened?"

Sophia could roughly figure out what had happened. After all, Mayor Owen told her the next mayor had been selected internally.

"It was rejected."

"Exactly! It was rejected. Although we had expected it to happen, I almost burst into laughter when I heard it."

"Olivia Grant spent all her savings on this painting to get Zain Berry promoted. However, she screwed it up."

Sophia also smiled. "Honestly speaking, I'm impressed by her. She does have the guts to bet on it. She's indeed stupid, though. That painting is costly. If it's exposed to the public, all of them will be in trouble."

"She must think it's worth betting. What if it worked?"

"That's right. However, the head of senior officials didn't want it."

"Right. You don't know how mad Olivia is. She spent more money than the painting was worth at the auction. If she wanted to sell it again, she could only get 600 million dollars back and lose 400 million dollars."

Sophia beamed at him. "Isn't that our initial plan?"
