It turned out that her name was Lara Brooks, and that was her original appearance. However, she later underwent plastic surgery to make herself look like Annabel Johnson. Then, she returned to Cethos to drive a wedge between Cooper and Michael. After her plastic surgery, she looked very similar to how the real Annabel had looked when she was younger—just with some extra wrinkles on her face.

On the other hand, the real Annabel Johnson was completely different in both appearance and temperament nowadays.

Lara was probably both Callum and Cade’s surrogate mother. Unfortunately, the children she missed so much didn’t even know who she was. She suffered through ten months of pregnancy to give birth to them. Even if she knew that they were not blood-related to her, they were still her flesh and blood! How could she not care for them? Their biological mother didn’t care for them, but this surrogate mother of theirs loved them from the bottom of her heart! I wonder what kind of feeling that is… Sigh… Sophia sighed before walking away.

Alas, Cooper took the contract, which was written by Sam himself back then, to coerce Sam into giving 1% of the shares to Sophia. Although Sam was miserable, he didn’t dare to object. After all, he wrote the contract himself. I can’t believe Cooper still remembers that contract after so many years!

After the meal at Crimson House, everybody went their separate ways. Meanwhile, Sophia headed to Pourl. Both Sophia and Sarah had been busy settling Pourl’s affairs recently. Sophia had torn up the contract with the Yard Family, so the Ronney Group was withdrawing their investment, as well as the rights to use their trademarks. As a result, lawyers came and went every single day with various documents for her to sign—so much so that her hand hurt.

After breaking off with the Yard Family, Sophia’s path toward moving out of the niche business of producing pet luxury goods to producing luxury goods for the general public had been cut off again. In the first place, the market for pet luxury goods was very small. Therefore, producing luxury goods for the use of people rather than pets was definitely more profitable. Damn it! Since the Ronney Group has withdrawn, I might as well do it on my own!

Before the Ronney Group, a company specializing in crocodile skin luxury goods, could fully penetrate the Cethosian market, she had to recruit her personnel and establish her business. Fortunately for her, she was not lacking in her design team. Her chief designer, Ivan, mainly designed luxury goods for human use. Designing pet luxury goods was just his side business and hobby. Over the years, he had built up his own design team, as well as a strong marketing team, and created a reputation for himself in the international market. The time was right for her to start her business!

Sophia was extremely busy during this period. She worked until late at night every day before returning home. By the time she reached home, Carmen was already asleep, and when

It was easy to see that she was overjoyed. After all, she was about to ride on the coattails of the Yard Family;

Because he knew that the two of us held grudges against each other? But, investing in a project costs hundreds of millions! Did he really do it on a whim? That can’t be it… The Yard Family
