Being Pursued By Ex-husband
Chapter 79
Harold stormed away. Meanwhile, Megan was stunned and could only hold onto Jessica. “Mom, could that vase really be a fake?”
However, Jessica did not believe it. “Don't scare yourself like that. Do you really think that your dad is that gullible? Do you know how many people he went around to ask before he bought this vase?”
“But Samuel...”
Jessica was furious at the mention of Samuel's name. “He isn't even an appraiser. Do you think that it's fake just because he said so?”
Megan heaved a sigh. “Then is Dad really going to find another appraiser to appraise the vase now?”
“It's just for him to feel at ease. Don't worry about the authenticity of the vase anymore. Just tell me. Is this bet real?”
As for the bet between Sophia and Megan, Jessica and her husband had differing views.
Jessica already disliked Sophia, to begin with. When such a matter happened when Stephen brought Sophia back a few days ago, she disliked Sophia even more. Besides, Sophia even got someone to bring thirty thousand dollars to humiliate them.
Hence, Jessica felt gratified by the bet between Sophia and Megan.
When Megan knew Jessica was on her side, she decided to tell her plans to the latter.
“When the appraisal results come out, I'll go with you to look for Sophia.”
There was no way that Jessica could swallow her anger from the thirty thousand that Sophia used to humiliate her.
“Okay!”
Megan started to get excited and firmly believed that the vase was authentic.
Just after Harold left, someone immediately brought the fragments from the vase to be appraised.
Less than half an hour later, the news reached Yvonne. She then conveyed the message about the Queen family sending the vase for appraisal to Sophia.
After Sophia finished listening to her, she raised her brow. “I still thought that I needed to wait for some time.”
“Maybe Mr. Queen is getting dubious of it.”
However, Sophia did not care about all of those minor details. All she wanted to know was when the results would be available. “How long does it usually take for an appraisal result to come out?”
Yvonne had done her research on this previously. Hence, she replied, “The vase is already broken, so they can use the fragments for an appraisal. If this were quick, it would take maybe an hour. Otherwise, it would be done in about three to five hours.”
Although she knew that the vase was fake, she still needed evidence to prove it.
“All right, Ms. Yarrow.”
Sophia then glanced at Yvonne. “Keep an eye on Magic Sense over the next few months.”
“I understand, Ms. Yarrow.”
“Let's go. It's time for the meeting.”
With a nod, Yvonne hurried after Sophia.
The meeting was eighty minutes long, and it was exactly eleven in the morning when it ended. After the meeting, Sophia stayed behind with the executives and continued an executive meeting for another half an hour.
It was only at half-past eleven that she finally walked out of the conference room.
By then, it was already lunchtime. Sophia looked toward Yvonne beside her and asked, “Do you want to have lunch together?”
“Sure.”
Just then, Yvonne's phone rang. She looked at Sophia and said, “Excuse me while I make a call, Ms. Yarrow.”
“Go ahead.”
Just then, Sophia received a text notification on her phone. Initially, she thought it was a spam message and wanted to delete it. However, when she saw Samuel's name on top, her hand froze before she opened it with her index finger. It read: Samuel Schild here. Are you free this afternoon? Let's have a meal together.
Sophia scoffed and swiftly replied: I'm not free.
Samuel instantly responded: Then what about tonight?
Sophia gave him the same response, but this time, she added: You can stop asking. I'll never have time for you.
Samuel, who was just about to try his luck again, was rendered speechless.
How heartless!
He gritted his teeth and pondered for a while before sending another text: Please don't misunderstand. I genuinely wanted to treat you to a meal as an apology for how I previously offended you.
However, even after a long wait, he still did not receive a text from Sophia.
On the other end, after Sophia replied to Samuel, she blocked all calls and texts from him.
“Ms. Yarrow, the appraisal results are out.”
Yvonne's voice sounded beside Sophia as soon as the latter put away her phone.
Sophia raised her brows. “Yes?”
“The vase was indeed a fake. The appraisal results should reach Harold by this afternoon.”
Upon hearing this, Sophia could not help but smile. “Oh. I hope he doesn't have high blood pressure.”
Otherwise, he might get a heart attack from the anger!
Her words sounded like an insult, but Yvonne could not help but laugh along with her. “Ms. Queen should know about this soon.”
Sophia tilted her head to the side and wore a smile. “Ms. Leighton, I realize that you're quite cheeky sometimes.”
Yvonne's heart palpitated under Sophia's gaze. However, after being her secretary for so many years, she managed to calm herself down. “Just sometimes.”
Sophia's lips curled into a smile. “That's good enough.”
As Yvonne looked at Sophia, who was smiling at her, she felt as if her heart was going to jump out of her chest.
Mom, I think I'm in love!
No one could withstand such a beautiful person smiling at them.
Yvonne felt that she would fall for Sophia's charms sooner or later. Never had she ever seen a woman who seemed alluring and innocent at the same time when she smiled.
