The Richest Heir CHAPTER 126
"I'll pay for the fine," she said firmly, meeting Mr. Holland's gaze. Given that most of the funds in her account originated from King, it seemed like the least she could do.Despite her increasing doubts about William's intentions, there was a small twinge of gratitude towards him lingering within her.As Mr. Holland's eyes moved from Emily to William, a hint of contempt danced across his face. He found William's composed demeanor, allowing his companion to foot the bill, utterly distasteful.Without a word, Mr. Holland turned on his heel and made his way to the receptionist desk, where he swiped the card, processing the hefty $45,000 fine.Returning to the table, he handed the card back to Emily, who accepted it with a somber expression. William let out a sigh of relief, seizing Emily's hand and guiding her hastily towards the exit, eager to put the humiliating ordeal behind them.As they walked, Emily glanced at William, her hesitation palpable before she finally mustered the cour
The Richest Heir CHAPTER 127
You're supposed to be a part of this family, but all you do is disappoint me. Couldn't you bargain with them? Use that tongue of yours for something useful."Sophia felt a pang of hurt at his words but kept her composure. "I did try, okay! But if you think you can do better, then why don't you go and bargain with them, and see if they'll give you a 2.75 million-dollar villa, which by the way was the cheapest villa they had, for one million," she said, her voice steady as she met his gaze head-on."I'd watch my tone if u were you young lady" Arther hissed at Sophia, his voice laced with warning.Her mother, eager to appease her husband, interjected, "I've already given her a piece of my mind, but she's just too stubborn. I think we shouldn't entrust such important matters to her anymore. It's clear that she's had everything handed to her on a silver platter ever since she moved in with us. Despite all that you've done for her, instead of showing appreciation, she's become extremely
The Richest Heir CHAPTER 128
Why would anyone willingly pay the extra 1.75 million just because I liked it? Do you think I'm a fool and will believe this nonsense? I won't be fooled by a fraud like you. Managing director, my foot!" With that, she angrily disconnected the call.Sophia looked up, feeling the weight of everyone's gaze upon her. However, their stares were not filled with confusion but with anger, evident from the way they frowned at her for abruptly ending the call without listening to the man on the other end.As Sophia glanced down at her phone, Amanda leaned in with curiosity. "Who was it? What were they saying about the villa?" she asked eagerly.Sophia sighed, her frustration evident. "It was someone claiming to be from the showroom sales department," she explained, her tone tinged with annoyance. "He said he was the general manager, and the villa I was interested in is suddenly available for one million, with the rest of the 1.75 million being paid by someone else. Can you believe the nerve

What's going on here? What's with all the whispering?"Just as Sophia was about to confront Amanda about her hurtful words, about Caleb,her cell phone rang out again, interrupting the tense moment.RINGRINGRINGSophia warily picked up the phone without bothering to check the caller ID."Hello?" she answered cautiously."Please, Miss Walters, before you disconnect the call, just hear me out," Mr. Jackson pleaded, his tone urgent.Sophia's frustration boiled over as she interrupted him, her tone sharp and angry. "Listen, Mr. Jackson, I'm not falling for your lame tricks. Do you actually expect me to believe that someone bought a house just because I liked it? Stop calling me, or I'll report this harassment to the police!""Miss Walters, please calm down. There's no need to call the police," Mr. Jackson responded calmly. "I assure you, I'm not lying. Someone did pay the excess amount on the villa. All you need to do is provide the one million dollars, and the house is yours."Sophia's

"Mr. Jackson has called me to the showroom, specifically to the sales department, where he's waiting to meet me. If he was a fraud, he wouldn't be allowed on the premises, let alone have the audacity to invite me there. So rest assured, mother, I'll read the contract and see from there, since you're oh so worried about the villa."Her words were tinged with sarcasm, a subtle jab at her mother's apparent prioritization of the contract over her safety.As Sophia was putting on her coat, Amanda approached her, her presence slicing through the tense air like a knife."Do you really believe that man is the general manager? And why would anybody want to pay the bulk amount for a villa, especially for you?" she taunted, eyeing Sophia up and down. "It can't be because he's fascinated by you. Besides, he's probably someone Caleb paid to call you and impress you. Maybe he's playing some sick game..." she mused.Sophia let out a heavy sigh, her patience wearing thin. "I won't know until I go,
The Richest Heir CHAPTER 131
"I understand the reputation of your company, Mr. Jackson, but I still have some reservations," she admitted, her voice tinged with uncertainty. "I'm particularly troubled by the mysterious benefactor who covered the cost of the villa," Sophia expressed, her brow furrowed in concern. "It's quite remarkable, isn't it? The idea that someone would offer such a substantial sum without any apparent ulterior motives is rather perplexing. I can't help but wonder what their intentions might be, or if there's some hidden agenda behind such generosity."Feeling a bit overwhelmed by Sophia's persistent questioning about the identity of the person who paid for the villa, Mr. Jackson unbuttoned the top button of his shirt, trying to alleviate the slight feeling of suffocation. He knew he couldn't reveal Caleb's name, so instead, he redirected the conversation. "It's getting late," he said, mustering a friendly smile. "Why don't you follow me to the meeting room, and we can take a look at the c

Mr Jackson stood there shocked.Unsigned contract in hand.He couldn't fathom how she could just give up an opportunity worth almost 3 million dollars over a single name. He knew that if she didn't sign the contract, Mr. King would be displeased. After all, he had specifically instructed Mr. Jackson to ensure that Miss Walters acquired the villa, no matter what it took.Mr. Jackson stood there, unsure of his next move, his thoughts a jumble of frustration and concern.Amanda stormed out of the showroom, calling out Sophia's name angrily as she hurried to catch up with her in her heels."Sophia, wait!" Amanda shouted, her voice laced with frustration. "You can't just walk away from this opportunity!"Amanda rushed over and grabbed Sophia's hand tightly, her voice escalating with each word. "You're so high and mighty, Sophia! Your stubbornness could cost us the villa! What am I supposed to tell my friends, huh? And worse, Daddy will be furious, and so will your mother!"Sophia remain

Mr Jackson just stood there, looking lost for words, staring at Sophia as she enters the car.Turning back to Mr. Jackson, Amanda assures him, "Hold onto the contract. I'll find a way to bring Sophia back, one way or another."Mr. Jackson's face twisted with a blend of frustration and desperation as he dashed towards the car, determined to make one final plea to the stubborn woman, ignoring Amanda completely.Sophia sighed as Mr. Jackson approached the passenger side and knocked on the window. Rolling it down, she listened to his plea, "Miss Walters, please," he urged, his voice strained with urgency. "Think about what this villa could mean for you and your family. It's a rare opportunity, one that could shape your future. Trust me when I say the benefactor is a good person. There's no hidden agenda here, just a generous gesture. Don't let a single name stand in the way of your dreams. Please, reconsider. I just...." but Sophia interrupted him before he could finish speaking."I
