Callum was sent here by Anna today to talk to Sophia about buying their house, but he did not expect that Sophia would present him with a one-sided contract termination as soon as he arrived.

“This is the termination agreement. Take a look. If you’re not satisfied with the terms, we can talk about it now. You can ask for as much money as you want, as I have plenty.”

She threw down a pen, and it was placed on the table together with the agreement. “Just fill in the amount that you want.”

Upon seeing this, Callum frowned.

Aren’t we just buying your house? Why do I sense some kind of deep hatred? Is it really necessary?

Baffled, Callum opened his mouth to speak. “This—”

“Sophia!”

Callum did not know why Anne was here, and he was even more puzzled when Anne suddenly slammed the table and shouted at Sophia. “Don’t be shameless! Ronney Group only cooperated with you because we think highly of you. Who do you think you are? You’re a b*stard, so you don’t even have the right to cooperate with the Yard family in the first place! And yet you have the nerve to terminate the contract? A b*stard is a b*stard; you’ll never amount to anything!”

In Anne’s opinion, the Yard family was the most powerful existence in the world. It was one’s blessings to be able to work with Ronney Group; in fact, it was the chance of a lifetime.

Not only did Sophia not kneel down to thank the Lord, but she even dared to terminate the contract!

 

Callum’s face paled.

Why is Anne here? This fool!

 

Sophia was so mad that a bitter laugh escaped her. Looking at Callum, she tried to be as kind as she possibly could. “Mr. Callum, I’m sorry. I’m a b*stard child, so working together has indeed been an insult to you and the Yard family’s reputation. Sign this and stamp here while you’re at it. Shae, bring the ink pad.”

Sophia, who had sat back down, seemed as if she could not be bothered to answer. She had already put on her sunglasses, just wanting to get the termination over with.
