Chapter 391

Zach held my arm and walked out of the hospital without looking back.Mr. Pepper was waiting for us outside. Zach sat in the front, while I sat in the back.Sophie kept trying to figure out if Zach was upset. She got frustrated when she could not tell. “Zach’s so good at holding it in. If it were me, I would’ve punched Fame right on the spot,” she whispered.“Fame’s been like that ever since we were in school.” Zach had overheard her. “He’s just all talk. He can’t do much.”That was true, and Zach was not in a difficult situation as Fame had thought.Zach was just pretending to be out of the Gordon family, hence he was unaffected.I knew that Fame’s comment did not bother him. But how did he feel about Cecilia having Fame’s baby? That had to affect him a little. Yet, he hid it well.Even if Zach had moved on, seeing Cecilia have another man’s child must have hurt him slightly. Perhaps he might break down alone one night.“He deserves it,” Sophie whispered to me.Cecilia di

Chapter 392

Sophie immediately turned pale. She quickly hung up and threw her phone onto the bed. “I never should’ve called. I just embarrassed myself.”I sighed. “At least figure out whose bed Austin is actually in.” “What’s there to figure out? Lucy answered his phone, and he was in bed. They were obviously together, so does it even matter whose bed it is?”When she put it that way, I guessed it did not.The next day, we had a meeting. Since it was at Freeman Corporation, Timothy came instead of Zach.We waited forever, but Austin did not show up. This time, I called him myself since Sophie was still upset about last night.Lucy picked up again, and I kept my voice low. “Put Austin on.” “He’s still tired from last night.” Lucy giggled. “We went at it so many times.”Luckily, I was the one on the phone. Sophie would have lost it.I snapped and lectured her, “Lucy, you’re only eighteen. Don’t you have any shame?” “Austin likes it that I’m young.” I did not bother arguing with her. A

“But I don’t get it. Why Lucy?” Sophie stared at me. “I never knew Austin liked that type.”“Stop worrying about why it’s Lucy. As long as it’s not you, it doesn’t matter who it is.” I understood what Sophie was thinking. I used to wonder the same thing.Why Cecilia?I was younger, prettier, and smarter. My family was rich, and I was kind-hearted. I thought that I was better than Cecilia in every way, but it was pointless. Zach still had feelings for her.So, no matter how much Sophie wondered, it would not change a thing. She thought that Lucy was just a troublemaker. That girl was an eighteen-year-old dropout who only knew how to dress up. Yet, Austin had chosen her. What else could Sophie do?While we had lunch, she complained nonstop.“People say men prefer eighteen-year-old girls, but I didn’t believe it. Looks like it’s true. Lucy has nothing but youth.”“Well, at least she’s young.” I gave her a shrimp. “Come on, eat. We have a conference call with my dad and yours this a

Chapter 394

I knocked on the door of a garden villa, and the housekeeper answered. Immediately after, I introduced myself, “I’m Cassia Freeman, the acting chairman of Freeman Corporation. I’m here to see Mr. Hanson.”The housekeeper quickly invited us in. Sophie still looked confused as we took off our shoes. “Whose house is this?”“Take a guess.” I stood up straight, and a middle-aged woman came out. I had met her at a company event, and she was surprised to see me. She approached us and said, “Ms. Freeman? What brings you here?”“I was just passing by. I thought I’d drop by since it’s been a while. Is Mr. Hanson not home yet?”“Oh, he won’t be home for dinner tonight. He’s often out socializing, but I can call him for you.”“It’s okay.” I smiled and said, “Let him handle his business. We can chat on our own.”“Okay.” Ellie Gipson, Oscar’s wife, nervously wiped her hands on her clothes. She then stepped aside and said, “Please come in.”While Ellie asked the housekeeper to prepare tea, Sop

Chapter 395

His name was Kingston Hanson. I was not sure if Oscar named him that because he wanted him to be as successful as a king.I remembered him being a good-looking kid. Apart from having bright eyes, he was tall and fair. He grew up to be just as handsome, the kind of guy Sophie would whistle at.Kingston was surprised to see two women in the house. Ellie quickly introduced us, “Come on in. This is Ms. Sophie Freeman and Cassia. You remember them, right? You used to play together when you were kids.”He probably remembered and extended his hand. “Hello.”I noticed that his nails looked nice; they were short and clean.I shook his hand, and Sophie tilted her head to check him out. “I recall that you had a scar here when you were younger. Did you get surgery? I don’t see it now.”“You have a good memory.” Kingston smiled and brushed his hair aside. “It’s right here.”“Oh.” Sophie leaned in to get a closer look. “Yeah, I remember that scar.”She would always notice the strangest thing

Chapter 396

Actually, I had asked around for some information on Kingston.He had started his own tech company, and it started making money last year. He was one of the most independent and capable ones among his peers.He used to have a girlfriend. But when he first started his business, he was quite poor. He did not want to ask his family for money either, so she broke up with him.While he was an ordinary guy, he was one of the best. I felt that he would be a great match for Sophie.Someone like her should not be with a sharp person like Austin. She needed a kinder and more down-to-earth guy.I felt as if I was playing the role of her mom by interfering with her love life.However, I had to admit that I had ulterior motives.Kingston and Sophie were chatting and laughing during dinner. Meanwhile, Ellie and I rested our heads on our hands and watched them.“Kingston, put more food on Sophie’s plate.”“Sophie, don’t forget to share,” I added. “She’s good at taking care of others.”“Ki

Chapter 397

“Sorry, but no.” If she had a better sense when it came to men, she would not still be single at twenty-six.I got in the car and told Mr. Pepper, “Just drive around for a bit before heading home.”“Isn’t Ms. Sophie Freeman coming with us?”“No, don’t worry about her. We’re leaving first.”Mr. Pepper took me for a drive, and the car moved slowly through the busy city like a turtle.“It’s rush hour. There are lots of people and cars,” he said.The city had a morning rush hour, evening rush hour, and even a late-night rush hour. It was always crowded.I leaned against the window and looked outside. The weather was nice tonight, and the warm breeze felt good on my face.While we stopped at a red light, Mr. Pepper suddenly said, “There aren’t many female bike riders these days.”Hmm?I looked ahead and saw a motorcycle pass through the intersection. The rider was a woman, and she looked cool with her helmet on.She was fully geared up, so I could not see her face. However, I rec

“Don’t make it sound so bad. Don’t you think Kingston’s a good match? Not only is he handsome and dependable, but you two also get along.” I walked out of the bathroom, and she followed closely behind.“When did you get so into matchmaking?”“Just stop hanging out with Lance. Kingston’s a great guy.”“Why Kingston? Sure, he’s nice, but his dad is Mr. Hanson. Isn’t that kind of weird?”“What’s weird about it?” I sat down at my vanity to dry my hair. The blow dryer hummed as I spoke. “Isn’t it better this way? We already know each other.”While I dried my hair, Sophie stood behind me and watched. Suddenly, she rushed over and unplugged the blow dryer. Her face lit up with realization as she pointed at me. “Wait a second. You’re trying to…”“Hey, hey.” I took the cord from her hand. “My hair’s still wet.”“Cassia, don’t tell me you’re setting me up with Kingston to get on Mr. Hanson’s good side?!”Wow, she figured it out fast. She was smart.I snapped my fingers. “Bingo, my dear

Chapter 399

Oscar took the book from me. I assumed that Ellie had already told him about Sophie and Kingston. He stood there and contemplated as he watched the elevator numbers change. Just before we reached my floor, he spoke.“Ms. Freeman.”“Yes?” I looked up with a smile. “What is it, Mr. Hanson?”“I wasn’t home yesterday. Why don’t I treat you to a proper meal sometime?”“That sounds great. I haven’t had enough of Ellie’s cooking yet.”Soon, the elevator doors opened. While I was stepping out, Oscar added, “Looks like you’ve been busy lately. Are you planning to visit Mr. Harrison, Mr. Lewis, and Mr. Lawson too?”I smiled. “I told you I only stop by if I happen to be passing by. I’m not visiting everyone.”Oscar smiled in return and held up the book in his hand. “I’ll give this to Kingston. Thank Sophie for me.”I whistled as I walked into my office, and Benjamin came over. “Ms. Freeman, you seem pretty happy today.”Of course. I managed to get along with someone as difficult as Oscar

Chapter 400

“There hasn’t been much work to do recently, but I’m still getting paid the same,” she whispered with a grin. “Why not enjoy it?”“Good point.” I patted her on the shoulder. “Use this time to focus on planning your wedding.”“Well, we do have two big deals coming up. Mr. Gordon has brought in new clients.”“Oh?” I looked at her. “Are they from our potential client list?”“No, they’re brand new. We’ve never gotten in touch with them before.”Zach was impressive. Even with everyone going against him, he still managed to land big deals. Did he cut ties with the Gordon family to prove that he could make Yonder Trading successful without their help and mine?The company sign had previously been taken down. But earlier, I noticed that it was back up. Nothing had changed.When I walked into Zach’s office, he immediately supported me, as though I was fragile or something.I waved him off. “I can walk by myself.”The blueprints were spread across his huge desk. There was a digital vers
