Revenge On My First Love novel Chapter 586

Chapter 586 King of the Underworld

As a new mayor, Harris didn't know how difficult it was to be a mayor until he became one. Apart from temptation, there were so many traps around him. In particular, he was so young, and many people were dissatisfied with him. He often didn't know what to do.
With Emma's help, he kept this position step by step.
"By the way, Mr. Sutton, do you just want to thank me?"
"Of course not, there is a big shot coming tonight. I can introduce him to you."
"Big shot?" Sophia looked surprised.
Harris nodded with a smile on his face. "I won't tell you who he is for now. You'll see by then."
This made Sophia even more curious. It seemed that she also knew the person who was coming tonight.
Harris went to greet other people. Sophia met a lot of people too.
She got on easily and smoothly with men.
However, the way these men looked at Sophia was somewhat different when they saw her again.
After all, what happened to Sophia, the King of the Underworld, and Rashad a while ago caused a mighty uproar.
Thinking that Drake was no longer as powerful as before, many people thought they perhaps had a chance to date Sophia.
Yet no matter what, Sophia was one of the Lawsons, so it was not easy to date her. They had their thoughts on their faces but dare not really express them.
Sophia knew what they were thinking about, and she didn't like it. So, she made up an excuse and got out to get fresh air.
"Sophia, are they giving you a hard time?"
Rashad came over.
Sophia didn't want to see this man for a second.
"Rashad, after you used Jessica to fight against me, how dare you appear in front of me again?"
Not only did Rashad not feel guilty, but he went head-on.
"Sophia, I know you don't understand why I did that but I don't think I did anything wrong."
Sophia snorted with disdain.
"Jessica loves Drake and I want to help her. Am I wrong?"
Sophia was shocked by what he said.
"Rashad, she likes Drake, and Drake is my husband. How did you become like this? Or, is this your true colors all the time but I just don't know?"
"Sophia!" Rashad tried to move closer. "It didn't matter if you were with Drake before, but now he can't give you anything. You should choose someone better. I don't think this is wrong."
Sophia dodged subconsciously. "Stay there!"
Rashad stopped.
"Someone better? Who do you mean? You?"
Rashad had no choice but to admit it.
"Yes, Sophia, me. Do you know why I came back? I came back for you. I've been loving you since the first time I saw you, and I told myself that you are mine. I want to be with you.
"But at that time, I couldn't take care of you or give you a better future, so I work hard, and one day I thought I was finally good enough for you, but then I heard you were from the Lawson family."
"Do you know how many men who really love you will give up because of your identity? At that time, I felt like a loser because no matter how hard I tried, no matter how I studied, I'll never be good enough for you"
"Fortunately, I have another identity too. I am the eldest son of the Riley family. When I knew that you and Drake were going to get married, I told myself that I would lose you forever if I didn't go back. Sophia, I came back for you."
"Sophia, I did everything for you. Now that I am at the top of this city, I can protect you and give you the future you want. Sophia, be with me, okay?"
Rashad's voice was not too loud, but still attracted the attention of people around him.
Some people were discussing in low voices.
"Oh, did you see that? Sophia and Rashad really have an affair! "
"Look, how shameless they are! Why are they talking about such things here?"
"Isn't it a little too much? Are they doing this just because Drake didn't come today? That's too much."
Sophia heard some of the discussions, although not all of them.
Sophia couldn't bear it any longer. Rashad kept framing Drake, ruining his reputation. She was fed up with it.
"Rashad, are you done?"
Almost yelling, Sophia was furious.
But Rashad approached her and grabbed her hand. "Sophia, I love you sincerely. Since I met you, I have never thought about anyone else. I know you are worried about the King of the Underworld now. Don't worry. As long as I'm here, he won't do anything to you!"
"Sophia, divorce Drake and come to me, okay?"
"What makes you so confident?"
To everyone's surprise, Drake appeared...
Behind him were Paul and several people that everybody presented knew, although they didn't show up often at the banquet.
Why did subordinates of the King of the Underworld appear behind Drake?
Seeing Drake, Sophia ran over and hugged him.
"Drake, why are you here? You didn't tell me you would be here, or we could have come together."
Sophia always told Drake whenever she was going somewhere. But Drake didn't tell her that he was invited too.
Drake had a headache. If he told Sophia, his identity would be exposed.
"Sophia, did he hurt you?"
"Even if you didn't come, he couldn't hurt me."
As she spoke, Sophia gave Rashad a contemptuous look.
Rashad wouldn't mind it however Sophia treated him but he didn't like the way she looked at him just now.
And he was confused when he saw Drake. He couldn't figure out what Drake wanted.
Suddenly...
Rashad looked at Drake. "We were talking about King of the Underworld, what does that have to do with you?"
"King of the Underworld?" Drake repeated these four words, "What does that have to do with me? Rashad, haven't you always wondered about my relationship with the King of the Underworld? Today I'll tell you, and everyone. I ... am the King of the Underworld!"
Everyone held their breath.
Drake was King of the Underworld?
At this moment, Drake dominated the entire banquet with his aura of power.
