My Dreamy Old Husband

Quinton found out about Carmen’s participation in this production crew as a cameo a while ago, and he wanted to kidnap the little girl so that he would be able to force Sophia to return to him! He had done such illegal acts a countless number of times, and he thought that he would be able to complete it without feeling the weight of guilt on his shoulders. However, after he saw Carmen’s sweet and innocent face, all he could think about was how Sophia had cried at the top of her lungs at him back then. “My little Carmen was only 4 pounds when she came out. She nearly died! And it was all your fault!!” He couldn’t forget how Carmen had been nothing more than a small ball of flesh when she was first born. The little child even stopped breathing for a while.

That was the most impactful and horrifying memory etched in Quinton’s mind. Now that Carmen was all grown up—now that she was healthy, cute, and able to run and fool around like a regular child—how could he have the heart to bring any harm upon her? After some hesitation, Quinton finally gave up as he simply couldn’t bear to harm Carmen. After texting his men to inform them of the aborted mission, Quinton sat himself on the ground dejectedly. All I want is for Sophia to stay with me. Why is that so hard? Why… I was the one that showed up in her life first; how could Michael just barge in and take my spot? How could he? How?! If it weren’t for him, I would have been the one receiving all the love and care. Sophia should’ve been in love with me, and Carmen should’ve been my daughter! It feels like Michael just invaded my entire life and snatched all of it away from me.

Right then, one of Quinton’s men rushed over to speak to him. “Boss, how are we supposed to inform those at Bayside City in Cethos about this if we’re aborting the mission?”

Quinton’s face darkened. “I refuse to lay hands on a child. Tell that person I’m not doing the job, and that I will not allow anyone else to take the job. Anyone who dares to lay a finger on that child would be going against my orders!”

Meanwhile, Sophia spent another whole night in her office at Bayside City. She only managed to get a short nap after the sun was up. At noon time, she scrambled out of her office to grab herself a meal. She then got Shae to make her a cup of coffee before she continued with her work. As it was the first time Dragon Eye was publicly selling their products in Cethos, there was no foundation set for the process. As long as they managed to put up a stable framework on their first launch, their job would be much easier in the future.

However, Sophia’s assistant entered her office and surprised her with the news that very afternoon—Stanley had called for a meeting. Something huge must have happened! Sophia finished the rest of her coffee before rushing over to the meeting room with her assistant. She listened to her assistant’s summary as they walked there. Apparently, Nicholas, the spokesperson of Dragon Eye in Cethos, posted a tweet that day itself. He wrote about how he smashed his two-month-old Dragon Eye handphone by accident, and there was a photo of the broken screen included in the tweet. His caption was a simple one. ‘It seems like all the statements of it being bulletproof is just an advertising strategy. I even got hacked by someone a few days ago, and I lost a lot of important data. Sigh.’

He had just denied the two greatest selling points of Dragon Eye phones: good quality and an impenetrable system. This was the first time a spokesperson had ever publicly questioned the quality of the products that he endorsed. Furthermore, since Nicholas was such a famous figure, there were soon a lot of netizens who expressed their suspicion about the low-end Dragon Eye phones. Most of the people had never used a high-end Dragon Eye phone or even seen one, so they were excited to see the low-end version. But now, the phone’s quality was being questioned by its own spokesperson. This was the first in history!

They really gave it their all—they had successfully forced Sophia’s team into a corner. In the end, Sophia’s team came up with two sets of emergency measures. Plan A, they would skip the legal procedures and instead, privately contact Nicholas to convince him to restore the reputation of Dragon Eye. Otherwise, they would use their Plan B, which was a lot
