Chapter 537

“That’s great.” Everyone will be happy if you leave now. “Both of you, send Old Mr. Sable back

personally. If you betray me, you know the consequences.”

“Yes, Mr. Nicholas!”

Javier glanced at Nicholas.

Even though they were in front of such a huge crowd, Nicholas did not show any respect to his father.

Nevertheless, he could not possibly let Sophie ruin his son.

Meanwhile, Sophie felt much better after seeing the photographs at the scene.

This should be a good lesson!

Nicholas will never understand even if you tell him nicely. Only simple and brute methods like this work.

After finding out what Sophie had done, Arius could not help but give her a thumbs-up.

“Sophie, we’ve received the same years of education, but why are you so amazing?” How could such a

talented woman exist in this world?

“I’ve got no idea what you’re saying.”

“That’s enough. You don’t have to pretend in front of me. Do you dare to say that you didn’t instruct

someone to blow up Nicholas’ mansion?”

“Did I do anything wrong?”

“No one said that you did anything wrong. I think you were amazing. Nicholas, that b*stard, deserves it.

You should blow him up to smithereens the next time.”

All Sophie did was oppose Nicholas. Considering his special identity, she would cause a lot of trouble if

she actually killed him. She could only teach him a slight lesson each time.

“It’ll be troublesome if I kill him.”

“I was just kidding. There’s no way I’d actually make you kill him.” Arius knew Nicholas’ identity well.

Now that the chip inserted in his arm could no longer be seen, he felt more relieved.

“I’m serious, Sophie. If Nicholas manages to get his hands on me, don’t care about me. I’ll think of a

way myself.”

“Quit spouting nonsense!” It’s pointless saying things like that. “All right, you should go back first.

Nicholas probably isn’t in the mood to capture you for the time being.”

“Okay. Where are you going? I’ll send you back.”

“Why? Do you want me to escort you?” Sophie asked mercilessly.

Arius touched his nose.

“Sophie, I know you’re more skilled in fighting than I am, but you’re still a girl, aren’t you?”

“Don’t you feel ashamed to ask a girl to protect you? After this busy period is over, I’ll make you receive

some special training.”

To her, Arius was a very important person. She would not let anything bad happen to him.

Arius had the urge to cry at the thought of those grueling training.

“It’s fine. I think I’m doing quite well now. See, Nicholas didn’t even manage to capture me.”

“If I hadn’t appeared today, do you think he wouldn’t have been able to capture you?” Also, Nicholas

hasn’t personally made a move yet. Even though all he did was send some lackeys out, you were

already struggling. “This is final.”

Arius was on the verge of tears.

Her special training was so terrifying that an average person couldn’t carry it off.

“You know it’s useless to resist in my world. Just be obedient.”

When Butterfly finished changing her clothes and came out, she saw that Sophie was about to leave.

“Are you leaving again, Sophie? Can’t you stay behind and have a meal with me?”

It had been ages since they had shared a meal together.

“Next time! I have something else to do today.”

That left Butterfly in a very gloomy mood.

“You’re always so busy. You only care about others but not me.” Butterfly was genuinely sad.

Sophie walked over and patted her cheek.

“I’m telling the truth. I’ll treat you to a meal next time. How’s that?”

Butterfly pouted, not believing Sophie’s words at all.

“You said that the previous time too.” If she trusted what Sophie said, she would still be the one getting

hurt.

“But I’m actually busy today.” Victor had been the one taking charge of Tanner Group’s projects all

along. It was time for her to have a look at it, given her high expectations for Tanner Group.

“Fine. Go ahead with your work! I’m the least important person in your life anyway,” said Butterfly

sorrowfully.

“Why do you sound so pitiful? Why don’t you finish your work here first? I’ll pick you up after I’m done

with everything.”

Only then did Butterfly crack a smile.

“That’s more like it.”

Although Butterfly was sometimes a stubborn person who could not be convinced no matter what, she

could be easily coaxed by people she cared about.

Sophie had known that a long time ago.

“All right, then. I’ll be waiting for you!” Butterfly missed Sophie so much after not seeing her for so long.

“I’ll wait for you here too. Let’s have dinner together after you’re done.” There was no way Arius would

be excluded from it.

“Okay. You guys wait for me here.”

Arius had the urge to cry at the thought of those grueling training.

Sophie hailed a taxi to Tanner Group.

The same thing happened each time—every time she was there, something major would happen.

“Hello, Ms. Sophie!” the staff greeted her along the way.

Sophie nodded back slightly as a greeting before heading straight to Victor’s office.

When Victor received a call from his assistant and found out that she had arrived, he immediately

stopped his work and went over.

Indeed, he saw her sitting on the couch and playing with her phone when he arrived at the office. From

his angle, he could spot her gorgeous neck and was slightly stunned.

Although he had always known how breathtakingly beautiful Sophie was, he did not expect to be

dumbfounded by her beauty sometimes.

Upon returning to his senses, he walked toward her and sat down opposite her.

“Ms. Sophie, looks like you’re free enough to visit today!” He knew she was studying at the University

of Medicine, which would make her unimaginably busy.

Everyone knew she had a lot of work on her hands.

In addition to studying at the University of Medicine, she was also researching at the physics

department of Jipsdale University. Since she was studying two impressive majors, it was obvious how

busy she would be.

“I’m here to look at how the projects are doing.” She had handed Victor the business plan the previous

time, so she was here today to check on his progress.

She was definitely not joking when she declared her goal to make Tanner Group on par with Lombard

Group.

“Everything’s going smoothly. Don’t worry, Ms. Sophie! Since I’ve got Tanner Group in my charge and

you as my advisor, nothing bad will happen!”

“Okay! I want Tanner Group to surpass Whitley Group in three months!”

She only gave him three months.

“Whitley Group?” Victor was stunned. However, when he remembered the rumor that had been making

its way around town, he knew that Sophie was referring to Jennifer’s family. “I’ll try my best.”

“Trying your best isn’t enough. You must succeed. Jennifer will definitely not let Tanner Group off the

hook so easily.”

Jennifer from the Whitley family might seem like a strong and independent woman, but she was

completely smitten with Tristan to the point she would do anything for him.

Since she wanted to destroy Tanner Group, razing Whitley Group to the ground would make Sophie

feel much better.
