The man looked like he was slightly older than Cooper. His face was filled with the wisdom and shrewdness of the elderly, and his hooked nose seemed to have lost its sharpness over time.

Sophia held her wine glass as she walked over to Cooper. Then, Cooper happily introduced her to the middle-aged man. “Jordan, this is my daughter, Sophia Edwards. She takes after her mother, doesn’t she?”

As I suspected… “Nice to meet you, Mr. Edwards. My name is Sophia.” She greeted Jordan. He seemed like just another run-of-the-mill ordinary middle-aged man—there was nothing special about him. He was completely different from the man Cooper had described; he was also different from the person she saw in the documents.

“Haha, my niece has certainly inherited your temperament, Cooper! You two sure look alike!” The two men acted like friends who had not met each other for many years, drinking with each other as they chatted. However, when Cooper turned around after finishing his greetings, the smile on his face vanished immediately. Sure enough; it was a façade. Although he had not seen Jordan for more than 20 years, he was certain the moment he laid eyes on this man—he was not Jordan Edwards.

On the other side, Sandra bugged Linus for a bit and finally succeeded in adding him as a contact on Messenger. He also promised to take responsibility for the matter regarding Abbie and the fake Lucile. Thus, she walked away contentedly. Compensation was not her main target; her main target was adding him as a contact on Messenger.

After that, she immediately started uploading some flirty selfies and photos of herself that were very sexy and revealing on her IG Stories. It was set so that only he could view them. However, she did not realize that he had blocked her on Messenger as soon as he turned around. She felt like she was reaching the pinnacle of her life upon adding him as a contact on Messenger. Therefore, she happily played with her phone, dreaming about countless romantic encounters with him. Contrary to her expectations, she immediately caught sight of Sophia, who was talking to Lucy, the moment she looked up from her phone.

The last time she made a blunder, Sophia had exposed a series of information on various shady contracts, tax evasion, and tax fraud incidents. As a result, she lost her position as the primary distributor of the Serpent mobile phones. She initially thought she was going to die, but Lucy unexpectedly stepped up rapidly to settle the entire incident for her and allowed her to walk away safely.

“Miss Edwards, it looks like you and Miss Mitchell are close friends.” Sophia secretly made fun of Lucy. She did not understand why Lucy had taken such a huge risk to save an idiot like Sandra.

After adding Linus on Messenger, it wasn’t too much to say that it was equivalent to her sleeping with him.
