Camilla was unhappy. "Sophia, you are the cousin to John. You should be able to come up with this good idea! Why didn't you say it? Do you not respect our family?"Ethan no longer hid the truth and spoke frankly. "Sophia, let's be honest. John wants to marry Praise, but he needs a matchmaker. We thought of you.""Me?" Sophia pointed to herself, somewhat incredulous."Yes!" They all nodded together.Daniel already knew what was going on. John's family specifically wanted Sophia to be the matchmaker, perhaps with some hidden purpose!Daniel didn't say anything because whether or not to be a matchmaker was Sophia’s choice.“I won't be a matchmaker!" Sophia said firmly. "You can find someone else for this." Camilla looked displeased. "Sophia, I heard that you helped Hillary’s family a lot recently, which prevented them from losing too much money. Now, our family is asking you to do a small favor, but you keep refusing. Are you looking down on our family?""I don't mean that!" Sophia s
"Dad, Mom, let's go!" John didn't want to stay here at all, mainly because he wasn't sure if Daniel would listen to him."Why leave? Tonight, we're going to talk with Sophia here!" Ethan sat down on the sofa, looking angry."Yes, since we're here, Sophia should entertain us. How can we not have dinner just because of a son-in-law who came to our door and got angry?" John had no choice but to sit down on another sofa. The scene became quiet again, as both sides were angry."If you all dislike Daniel, let's order takeout."Sophia lost her interest in cooking. "Okay, ordering takeout is fine, as long as we don't lack the courtesy of entertaining you, Uncle Ethan, and Aunt Camilla!" Ethan, as an elder, naturally said so.Sophia also didn't dare to entertain them without courtesy, so she called the customer service department of a five-star hotel and ordered a table of takeout. Because the Hughes family's diet was very particular, she also ordered over ten thousand pesos worth of food and
They arrived at the gate and the security guard asked, "What's going on? Why do you have so many things with you?""These are gifts for Miss Praise. Please let us through. If even one item is missing when it reaches Miss Praise, can you take responsibility for it?" John’s tone was threatening."Oh, I see. These are gifts for Miss Praise, please come in!" The group was allowed to pass and they finally arrived at the home. Her home was similar to Hughes and the one Sophia, built within her own company.However, it was a chemical factory and the air was not very good. When John arrived at Praise's door, he knocked and a somewhat loud voice came from inside, "Who is it?"It was Praise.John shouted, "Miss Praise, it's me, John!""Wait a minute." The voice inside sounded a bit impatient.Not long after, Praise opened the door and his eyes lit up, "Everyone, why did you bring so many gifts? What's the occasion?"John’s face suddenly turned pale and green. Praise suddenly understood what was
"What's the meaning of this? You promised to give me these items, and now you want to take them back?" Praise's face showed anger and frustration. John had never been humiliated by a girl before, and he retorted, "Miss Praise if you don't want them, we have to take them back!Praise was already on edge, and she considered these items to be her own. She refused to let them go and sent a message on her phone.Soon after, a group of people led by a bald, scar-faced man surrounded Praise house. Praise sneered, "You willingly gave me these items, and now you want to take them back. What's the meaning of this?"Sophia thought Praise was being unreasonable, "Miss Praise, we're here to act as matchmakers. If you agree to marry John, you can keep the items. If not, you should return them. Isn't that fair?"Praise laughed, "I don't need to explain anything to you. Once these items are in my house, they belong to me!"Camilla signaled to Daniel, indicating that only he could retrieve the items
"Mr. Kang’s illness has started to recover, and President Jasper's father will also be discharged from the hospital in a month.""Well, that's good news!"Today is Saturday, and the two of them are resting in the room, still somewhat idle.At this time, there was a notification in Sophia’s WhatsApp group, and she quickly opened it. It turned out that Brock Carver, the group Admin of her middle school classmates' WhatsApp group, had sent her an invitation: Sophia, there is a class reunion today, please don't be late. Sophia hadn't seen these classmates in years, so she sent a message: What time? Let me know and I'II arrive on time. Brock replied: 4:30 pm, third-floor private room at the Majestic Hotel.Many old classmates became active in the WhatsApp group. Everyone talked about some past events in the group, and the group suddenly became lively. Around four o'clock, Sophia told Daniel, "Daniel, you have to come with me to the Majestic Hotel today."Sophia had some attachment in her h
Unexpectedly, Crosby didn't forget to pass a message to Brock as he turned around, “See you later!" Although he said it lightly, his wife heard it.In an instant, his wife became angry, walked over, grabbed Brock's long hair, and fiercely slammed her to the ground. The people present wanted to help, but they didn't dare to step forward. Daniel walked over and grabbed the woman's hand with one hand, immediately rendering her unable to move. Brock was able to escape and hide among her classmates.The woman looked at Daniel and asked, "Who are you and why are you against me?Do you know who I am?""I don't know who the madam is, but I'm curious to find out," Daniel replied."I'm the CEO of Freeman Coal Industry, and my father is the boss!" the woman said."Freeman Coal Industry? I don't think I've heard of it before," Daniel repeated, nodding his head."Haven't heard of it?" the woman was surprised. Daniel smiled and nodded. "Have you heard of Harri's name? My name is Jarvis, and Harris
"Daniel, is it true that Joseph borrowed money and bought stocks this time?""Okay." Daniel began to give instructions to Carolina. Joseph looked at Daniel with some disdain, "Cousin, Daniel is useless, how can he find out the truth about my borrowing money?"Sophia did not respond, she just secretly felt that Joseph was like a big rough man, how could he guess Daniel’s true side?After a while, Daniel spoke, "This time he did borrow five million from Samuel, and he sent people to find him and ask him to repay the money."Sophia did not speak again, and thought for a while, "Daniel, do you think Samuel has any purpose?"Daniel shook his head, "Not yet found out." Joseph glanced at Daniel with some disdain, when did Sophia become so protective of Daniel?He always liked his cousin Sophia, but Daniel's presence between him and Sophia made it difficult for him to win her heart. He resented this all the time!At this moment, a wave of hatred surged into his chest again. “Joseph, I'll giv
When Sophia had nothing to do, she received a call from Joseph."Hey, Joseph, where are you now?" Sophia asked, feeling concerned.'I'm in Ascot Ridge," Joseph replied."Is everything okay?" Sophia asked."No, it's not. I lost another 50,000 pesos in gambling," Joseph said."Where did you lose it?" Sophia asked."At the underground boxing arena in Ascot Ridge. At first, I won, but then the staff there told me that it was easy to win the Lamborghini if I kept playing. So I got greedy and bet a lot, but ended up losing. Now, I'm having problems with my daily life..." Joseph explained. Sophia’s face turned red with anger.She scolded him sternly, "Joseph, what you did was wrong!""Cousin, can you lend me another 50,000 pesos? I promise to listen to you and not gamble again," Joseph pleaded. Sophia was about to reply when Daniel took the phone from him and said, "Joseph, you're always asking your cousin for money. That's called freeloading. I suggest that your cousin should not give you a
