However, she could not show her anger because she needed to pretend that she was an understanding wife, who understood the larger scheme of things so that Richard would not find her annoying. I have to find a way to push Sophia away from Richard. However, at the current moment, she has made such a huge contribution to the Harper Family. Therefore, I can’t be obvious with my motives.

“Richard, this is Audistin, which means that Joel’s acquaintances or subordinates might be here. If you casually approach Sophia, what will happen if he finds out?”

Richard stopped dead in his tracks. Upon recalling the fact that his woman slept with another man for his sake, he couldn’t help but blame himself while being riddled with guilt.

However, whenever he reminded himself that she did this for their future, it instantly eased up his guilt.

Xyla was extremely resentful when she noticed how eager he was to chat with Sophia. Nevertheless, she pretended to be understanding and gracious. “Richard, why don’t I help to look out for the two of you?”

His eyes sparkled when he heard that and shot her a grateful look. “Xyla, you are the best!”

They both casually walked toward Sophia.

As Sophia was just done with her footbath and back massage with essential oil, she was about to take Nathan to meet Michael. They should be done with their game of mahjong, I hope.

However, she had barely taken a few steps when she suddenly heard a voice from behind her. “Sophia!”

She frowned deeply. What is wrong with Richard? Why is he throwing himself at me? Why is he doing that while claiming that I’m the one trying to get closer to the Harper Family?

 

In order to avoid any unnecessary misunderstanding, she feigned that she did not hear him and never bothered to acknowledge him. Instead, she led Nathan into a room and closed the door, effectively closing the door in Richard’s face.

Richard knocked on the door a few times. He noticed that the door was locked and a thought struck him. Sophia now belongs to Joel exclusively, so no one else can have her. That’s the reason why she can’t be in contact with me.

He left with regrets.
