Sandra quickly came up with another reason. “A woman’s job is to stay at home and take care of the kids—you have no right to meddle with a man’s business!” Sophia gave her the side-eye in response to her words. “Aren’t you a woman as well?” Sophia asked coldly.

To Sophia’s surprise, Sandra still had a comeback for that. “I’m the Young Lady of the Mitchell Family. Not only that, I’m also a world champion—of course I can’t be compared to you!”

Everyone burst into laughter upon hearing this. They clearly recalled how Sandra was last year’s ambassador for the Women and Children Association! She was also the ambassador of Cethos’ Women Empowerment Association, which claimed that ‘women held up half of the sky’. However, she drew a clear distinction between males and females in the Mitchell Family and their company! In other words, she was claiming that all women were useless and helpless apart from her!

Alex began to come up with more reasons. “Go away! What do you know about anything, you housewife? Even if you’re Cooper’s daughter, you’re no longer part of the Mitchell Family since you’ve gotten married. You can get a man from your household to speak up; your words have no power here!” he uttered.

Sophia then glanced toward Alex. As expected, what she saw was an old, hideous man; he was an elderly who did not have a woman by his side. Furthermore, there were barely any females in his company; the percentage of female employees in Mitchell Group dropped steadily ever since Alex took over. Under his orders, many of the talented and capable females had been forced out of the company, and he even drew up rules to restrict females from visiting the family grave to pay their respects later on.

Ever since Alex brought up a ‘useless brat’ like Natasha, his assumptions were further confirmed that all women were trash and only ruined things around them. In the past few years, Mitchell Group fired a great number of females, especially those who held higher positions in the company. They’re the joke of the century! Sophia threw Sandra—the woman who had brought up the topic and got the old man started on his lecture—another long glare. She simply felt sorry for Sandra. “That’s right. Women shouldn’t put themselves out there; they don’t deserve to be the heir of a family. Everyone should bring their daughters up the way you brought Sandra up; she gets fancy clothes, gourmet meals and lives a luxurious life, but she’ll never dream of getting any company shares or the chance to be an heir! A daughter should just work hard to suck up all your resources before she’s sent off to marry another man! How atrocious it is for my father to give me money, shares and the right to be the successor of his business!” Sophia’s words were filled with sarcasm—she sounded as though she was belittling herself, but Sandra could tell that Sophia was mocking her.

She wanted to restore justice, and she wanted to make a grand entrance back into the Mitchell Family as the family head on Cooper’s behalf; she wanted to prove her father’s innocence and reclaim her mother’s status. Lastly, she wanted both Michael and herself to visit the graves of her ancestors

this goal, and Michael—her loving husband—had always been supportive of her pursuits. Unfortunately, Michael wasn’t present at the monumental event that day; he had to attend a script-reading session and seemed extremely busy. However, to Sophia’s surprise, a series of cars pulled up outside right then. Michael’s car was the first to arrive, and he got out of his car with his men behind him. He looked especially well-dressed and elegant as he strode in. His lengthy figure was wrapped in a black suit, its sharp tones contrasting with the white shirt he wore inside. With his cool, mysterious aura and his picture-perfect facial features, all of the Mitchell Family’s men quickly stepped
