All of a sudden, Faye’s body trembled and her gaze as she stared at Sophia was filled with terror. Why does Sophia know about me and Richard? It was as if her whole body stiffened and she didn’t dare to say another word.

When Sophia loosened her grip on her, Faye was in a daze and she guiltily glanced over at Xyla and Richard. Then, her expression instantly changed and with a smile, she said, “Now that it has come to this, if we ruin the banquet right now, the money that we spent would be wasted. If there is anything else to discuss, let’s talk about it after the banquet.”

I can’t let Xyla find out about me and Richard now! Xyla is the only child of the Huff Family. After Richard married her, he has part ownership of everything that the Huff Family owns and is slowly taking over the Huff Family’s businesses right now. I can’t let a swindler like Sophia ruin our plan at such an important stage!

Meanwhile, when Sophia held Faye in her arms and whispered to her ear, Faye’s deep and charming gaze passed over the crowd and focused on Richard, who stood in the corner of the room. He had not said a single word since the beginning.

Richard didn’t understand lip reading, but he could understand the words that Faye mouthed. Does Sophia know about my plan with Faye? Is she going to expose us both if I don’t speak on her behalf?

All of a sudden, Richard felt his phone vibrate. He silently pulled it out of his pocket and saw that Sophia had sent him two screenshots of a video on Messenger. They were screenshots of what he and Faye did in Ido’s toilet the other day. I was right…

Instantly, the veins on Richard’s face bulged. If Sophia exposes us now, she’ll ruin my relationship with Xyla and I’m sure the Huff Family won’t let me go easily. I haven’t completely gained ownership over all of the Huff Family’s fortune yet and I can’t let all my previous effort go to waste! With that, Richard gave Faye a signal and the two immediately knew what they had to do.

Just then, they heard a knock at the door. A man entered and lowered his voice as he said, “The Fletcher Family has arrived and gave gifts to congratulate Sophia. Mr. Edwards and Miss Edwards, please hurry out and greet them!”

“The Fletcher Family?” Joe asked in surprise. “Which Fletcher Family?”

The man hurriedly replied, “The commanding general, Joel Fletcher, has personally come to hand you some gifts!”

 

Upon hearing this, everyone was dumbfounded. They never thought Joel would personally attend the banquet! When Sophia heard this, she fluffed her hair with her fingers and tidied her clothes as she stood up and said, “Dad, why did you ask such a strange question?
