Upon hearing what Cooper had to say, Sophia asked herself, If I use Lucy’s secret against her and force her to step down, will it really make me happy?

The successful outcome was extremely important to Sophia, but was it important enough for her to go against her morals? No… Even if I lose, I would want to do so without feeling any guilt. If I lose, I can always try again!

Cooper then saw Sophia, who was clearly in distress, smile suddenly. She didn’t need to use those tactics to win against Lucy. In fact, she would do it fair and square. If she lost, then she would accept it wholeheartedly!

“I got it. Thanks, Dad!” At once, Sophia jumped up and wrapped her arms around Cooper’s neck, affectionately rubbing her cheek against his. He smiled happily as he thought there was nothing more fulfilling than the joy of his sweetheart.

Then, Sophia ate a little more before starting work again. I’m not afraid of Lucy Edwards! In fact, Sophia thought she was pretty powerful. Her parents, her brother, and her husband were powerful, so she was determined to not be the one to drag them down.

She was set on organizing this year’s Bayside Fashion Week. If she failed, then she would still get the opportunity in the future—it wasn’t going to be the end of the world. Now, however, she must seize this opportunity!

At the Yard Residence, Carmen came to visit with the roses from ‘Cooper’ and some homemade snacks. After she left, the Yard Family began to decorate their home in preparation for the New Year. Callum was setting up colorful lights and he even had some balloons.

Meanwhile, Anna transferred the roses from Cooper to a petri dish for it to grow some roots before transplanting them to a larger pot to bring it back to Ronney City.

These days, Cooper would occasionally grab any opportunity to visit whenever he came to pick Carmen up. However, he would only have a brief conversation with Anna before leaving shortly. Truth was, Anna noticed the way he looked at her and she felt the same way. Yet, Cooper had met Jordan and he knew about their relationship. She felt her heart sink at that thought.
