“I’ve built ten Schools of Hope under Xyla’s name so that more schooling opportunities are provided to the children living in the mountains. They don’t have to pay a single cent for rent or food. I hope Xyla will like this present from me!”

Thunderous applause exploded right there and even Sophia had joined in. Even though the Harper Family’s main reason for doing charity was to increase their popularity, they still had done it anyway.

However, Xyla did not like it at all. What she wanted was Eternal Love, not some poor Schools of Hope!

Nevertheless, her impeccable acting skills had completely masked her true feelings. She was so moved that she sobbed while saying something that was entirely untrue. “Richard, I love this present so much!”

They couldn’t help themselves but tightly hug each other.

Another thunderous applause boomed. Sophia had also fervently clapped her hands, but the stunning red glimmer shining from the Eternal Love on her finger almost reddened Xyla’s eyes as well.

With that, the charity banquet organized by the Harper Family came to an end and they did not try to bully Sophia anymore. Perhaps it was because she had ‘deliberately’ brought some powerful figures with her, which brought enough pride to the Harpers, so they were surprisingly satisfied with Sophia’s performance.

When the banquet began, Richard, who had just given a moving speech, went to take a short rest.

In the rest area, Mrs. Harper patted his shoulder and said in satisfaction, “I can’t believe that woman has this capability! I definitely have underestimated her! Son, it’s normal for a man to be in love with several women at once. Many of them have a woman at home who’s dutiful and a few capable ones outside. Did you think I didn’t know about the few witches in your dad’s company? Since they can help him with his business and never threaten our positions, I’m too lazy to deal with them. Sophia, on the other hand, is quite capable and might be able to assist you in your career in the future. Don’t worry, I’ll talk some sense into Xyla for you, so go ahead and be with her! Just don’t make a big deal out of it. However, I only have one condition for that—Xyla must be the one who gives birth to your heir. If Sophia really wants to be with you, you have to ask her to perform a tubectomy. This is my only request!”

Upon hearing that, he was beyond delighted. “Thanks, mom!”

 

Standing outside the door, Xyla had heard everything. Her face, which became even more beautiful with makeup, became extremely distorted because of her anger within.

Hah, do you think you can enter the Harper Family because of this, Sophia? It’s impossible!
