Chapter 21 A Smack in The Face

The crowd exchanged glances and began murmuring. What was happening? Where was this surveillance footage from?Elliot leaned back and looked leisurely at the screen.The footage showed Vincent dragging Sophia to the waiting room.Elliot frowned and straightened up.The footage continued, and it showed Sophia push Vincent away with a look of disdain as she wiped her hands.Well, that was infuriating!The two of them talked, and in the end, when Vincent tried to grab Sophia’s phone, she threw him over her shoulder and onto the ground. Her moves were ruthless and showed no mercy!The crowd became uncomfortable when they heard Sophia saying, “You’re too full of yourself. You think you’re a lion when you’re just a dog.”Elliot’s expression cleared slightly, and he whispered to Samuel behind him, “Don’t let the Baxter family turn off the screen.”This engagement party was getting interesting!Samuel nodded and walked away.The crowd was shocked by Vincent’s arrogant words in the f

Chapter 22 As Arrogant As Ever

Sophia sat on the sofa, calmly toying with her phone. She had a faint smile on her face.“I knew it,” she said with a knowing smile. “You’ll let me go the same way you locked me up, William!”William’s face turned purple with anger. He pointed at the bodyguards and barked, “Get her!”Sophia chuckled. “I must remind you that unlawfully detaining someone or depriving them of their personal freedom is punishable by years of imprisonment, detention, control, and deprivation of political rights. And if there are elements of violence or insult involved, the punishment will become even more severe. Are you sure you want that to happen?”He could barely contain his anger. “You set up the surveillance in the lobby, didn’t you?”She replied easily, “Yep, that’s right. What do you think? Was the footage clear enough for you? Did it capture all the nasty things your son and his woman were up to?”“You’re asking for death!” He fumed in frustration. “What are you waiting for? Grab her! Grab he

Chapter 23 Kicked Out of the Car

Sophia left the hotel and walked around aimlessly. She felt restless. She might have vented her anger, but she did not feel like she had won anything. She had lost miserably in the face of her own family and human nature.She had not been forced to get engaged to Vincent, but she had caused a scene at the party. There was no way she could go home after this, and she was worried about her grandmother.She had always been concerned about her grandmother’s well-being. She feared that she would be left without anyone to take care of her.Suddenly, she heard a car honk twice behind her.She turned to the parked car beside her. The window rolled down to reveal Elliot’s enigmatic smile. “Where are you going?”Sophia rolled her eyes. She could not stand him, but she always seemed to run into him.“Why do you care?” She retorted. She tried to walk away.He frowned, “What? Are you in a bad mood because you didn’t get engaged?”Sophia snorted, “So what? Mind your own business and stop

Chapter 24 I Don’t Want Them

Sophia had not in fact met a lecherous man in the scorching weather.She was sitting comfortably in an air-conditioned car, enjoying some watermelon.“Is it sweet enough for you, Sophia?” The driver, Benny Dale, asked.She made a face. “It’s alright.”Benny chuckled, “I bought it from a roadside vendor, so it might not taste good.”Sophia did not reply but continued eating.Benny said, “Everyone at the club misses you, Sophia. They’re setting up a game especially for you. Do you want to go?”She was still focused on her watermelon. “No, I want to go back to the hospital to see Dorothy.”“How is she?”“The same as usual.”“If she’s okay, how about we all meet up in the evening?”“Well see.” Sophia looked up. “Go faster.”She needed to reach the hospital to speak to her grandmother before Elliot did.Benny nodded and sped up the car.…In the hospital.Jeffrey had been looking for Sophia all morning. He asked Elliot to find her yesterday, but there was no sign of her. The

Chapter 25 Let's Be Their Matchmaker

The next day, the internet was flooded with news about the canceled engagement between the Baxters and Bucks, and it was reported that it had happened because of the misconduct of the Buck family’s daughter.Those in the know understood that it was referring to Sharon, but those who were unaware thought it was Sophia. After all, everyone knew that Sophia had been engaged to Vincent until the day before yesterday.The Baxter family had deliberately framed it that way.Sophia’s social media username was “SophiaB,” and she posted a tweet on her account which contained only one sentence: “If you don’t understand, let me explain it to you.”She had tagged Vincent, William, and the official account of the Baxter Group. Although she rarely posted on social media, she had tens of thousands of followers because it was an older account.Confused people immediately realized that her unexpected post was referring to the Baxter Group. After reading William’s post, they became even more p

Chapter 26 She’s a Sweet Child

Dorothy seemed interested in the idea. She said with a smile, “So, will we be marrying above ourselves?”Jeffrey replied, “What do you mean, marrying above yourselves? You moved away from Phoenix. If you had been here all this time, we might have become in-laws by now. I should tell you that the public doesn’t think highly of my grandson. But those are just empty rumors. Don’t believe any of it. The poor boy had a tragic past. His parents died in a car accident when he was eighteen, and he’s been in a wheelchair ever since.”He leaned in closer and whispered, “To tell the truth, his legs have been fine for a long time. I won’t say much, but if she marries him, nobody'll dare say anything about her.”Dorothy’s eyes lit up. She looked at him and said, “Okay, I’ll meet your grandson one of these days. But first, let me show you a picture of Sophia. She’s beautiful.”She reached into her pocket for a picture of Sophia. He was stunned. “This is your granddaughter?”Dorothy was surpri

Chapter 27 You Can Offer Yourself to Her

Sadie sneered, “Explain what to her? She nearly killed my daughter. I’d rather settle my score with her instead,” With that, she turned and left the room.Daniel shot a glare at Sadie but did not stop her from leaving. Elliot frowned, puzzled by her swift departure. What was the connection between that man and that brat?Who exactly was Sadie to the elderly woman?As he wondered about that, Daniel expressed his gratitude. “Elliot, thank you for saving Dorothy.”Elliot silently scoffed. ‘Why is he thanking me? It’s not like I did it for him.’ Nevertheless, he replied nonchalantly, “No problem.”As the conversation ended, Elliot saw that Jeffrey was calling him.Elliot had promised his grandfather that he would visit, so he answered the call. “Grandpa, I’m on my way. Adam? What happened? Alright, I’ll be there soon.”After hanging up, Elliot told Dorothy, “You take good care of yourself. I have to go.”She smiled and replied, “Thank you, young man.”Elliot said, “You don’t n

Chapter 28 Serves You Right or Congratulations

Sophia received a call from Daniel and hurried back from school.When she arrived at the hospital, Dorothy’s condition had improved significantly, but she was still very weak.Daniel had told Sophia that Sadie was the one who upset her grandmother.Interestingly, Elliot had assisted in restraining Sadie and called for a doctor.It seemed that the rumors about Elliot being cruel and ruthless were unreliable. She thought there might be something to him, since he had intervened in an unfair situation. She supposed she should at least thank him for today.She didn’t dare imagine what might have happened to Dorothy if he hadn’t been there.Dorothy looked at Sophia and said, “I’m fine. You don’t have to hold a grudge against them.”Sophia scoffed. “Sure.”She didn’t want her to hold a grudge? That would be letting them off too easily.Dorothy frowned and continued, “After all, she’s your stepmother. If you don’t like them, we can just avoid them, but there’s no need to make things

Chapter 29 Disdain Instead of Gratitude

Sadie was infuriated and tried to smack Sophia, but Sophia caught her wrist in midair.Her icy gaze locked on Sadie as she slowly stood up from her chair, saying, “I haven’t even settled the score with you yet. How dare you try to attack me? Let me tell you something, Sadie. If anything happens to my grandmother, I guarantee worse things will happen to your daughter!”After saying that, she pushed her. Sadie was no match for Sophia's strength, so she stumbled back several steps and fell to the ground. Aggrieved, she looked up at Lawrence and said, "Why did you bring her back from the countryside? Did you do it just to stir up trouble in our family?"Lawrence did think that Sophia was partly responsible for Sharon's broken engagement, but he harbored some guilt because he had misunderstood Sophia at the time. Now, her words were becoming increasingly malicious. How dare she try to encourage Sharon to attempt suicide again right now? He felt that it was time to step in. He helpe

Chapter 30 Marriage is Just Around The Corner

Adam accompanied Jeffrey to Dorothy’s ward again. Dorothy struggled to sit up in bed. “You’re here, Jeff.”Jeffrey was worried about her. “How are you? Adam mentioned that someone had come to make a scene. Are you feeling better now?”Dorothy smiled. "I'm fine. I’m much better now."Jeffrey sighed. “It’s not good for people our age to get anxious and angry. Who on earth dared come here to provoke you?"Dorothy was silent for a while before saying, "It was Sophia’s stepmother. Remember the canceled engagement? Her daughter attempted suicide by cutting her wrists. She thought Sophia was to blame, so she came to take her anger out on me."Jeffrey said angrily, "What does that have to do with Sophia? How dare she try to blame you for that?”Dorothy smiled when she saw Jeffrey protecting her so fiercely. She would be at ease if Sophia married into his family. At least someone would have her back. "I met your grandson," she said. "Huh?" Jeffrey was surprised. "You met him? Wher
