Xandra’s behavior would consume all the kindness. Moreover, the Roscentes weren’t fools.
Even Sherry could see Xandra’s ambition, Naturally, the Roscentes could see it too.
Therefore, no matter what kind of upheaval Xandra tried to stir, the Roscentes would be the first to suppress her.
As for Xandra’s feelings for Tristan. If Tristan truly cared, he wouldn’t have come directly to break off the engagement between the two families in front of Xandra years ago.
Sherry stared at Sophia’s face, which had no mood swings, clicked her tongue, and said, “Look at you, a woman in love. It’s only because that person is Tristan, otherwise, you’d never bother with such troublesome romantic entanglements,”
It seemed that her friend had struck a chord with her. Sophia felt something bubbling up inside her. It seemed what she said was indeed true
In the past, she hated getting involved in any kind of trouble the most.
Although Xandra posed no threat, she was indeed a nuisance. Yet Sophia had never used Xandra as an excuse to refuse Tristan. Sophia realized she had changed a lot.
“Well, never mind, honey, as long as you’re happy. Sherry quite liked the change in Sophia.
The current Sophia seemed like a living person, not a puppet held in Margaret’s hand.
Sherry’s lips curved in a smile, giving Sophia a knowing wink, “Sweetie, I finally slipped away from the blind date my dad arranged. How about coming out to cheer me up.”
Sophia glanced at the countless files on her laptop screen and numerous unread messages.
She thought for a moment, “Averie has been sending me messages. How about tomorrow? Contact Zach and the others, and let’s meet at the Raffle Hotel tomorrow. My treat.”
The gift from her father naturally had to be put to good use to create greater benefits and have enough money to purchase. those precious medicinal materials.
It was a good chance for her to meet up with friends over there and also check on the development of the Raffle Hotel.
Every time Averie contacts you, you will be busy. You created the brand Luminous years ago. Is there still no other design talent besides you? What’s the deal with constantly relying on the boss?” Sherry snorted, clearly doubting if Sophia could
meet them tomorrow.
Sophia touched her chin, “You’re right. I do need to nurture some talents. I can’t make money relying solely on myself.”
“Are you so
o short of money?” Sherry rolled her eyes, “Only now do you realize that you need to cultivate other talents to help you?”
She snorted again, “You’ve been kept by the Stewart Family for three years, and chased after that fool for another three years. You must be poor now. Can you really afford to treat us at the Raille Hotel? It would cost a lot.”
Sophia said, “No worries, we don’t have to pay there. It belonged to me now.”
Sherry looked confused, Sophia explained, “My dad gave it to me as a gift.”
Unbelievable! Is this the unpretentious life of a wealthy person? It’s one of the top restaurants in Virelia!” Sherry bellowed Inwardly

Sherry was so jealous that her teeth ached Grinding her teeth, she muttered. “This rich people Tomorrow, I’m putt
“Damn pate

After hanging up the call, Sophia’s attention returned to the screen.
She glanced over the series of documents about the Raffle Hotel, and then clicked on the icon to open Whisp
half
Averie sent her many messages You’re finally online! You haven’t handed over the design drawings to our company for h a year! Do you have a new design this time?)
Averie: Where’s the drawing? I’ve been waiting for it for half an hour!!
Averie: Boss… You didn’t draw a design, did you? Do you know that if you don’t give us the design, we will declare bankruptcy? Do you understand what bankruptcy in? Do you understand?
Averie [Hurry up! We need your designs.)
Averie: [Boss, if you continue to play dead and don’t give me the drawing. We’ll hang ourselves at the door of the company with all the staff. I’m going to make it public that you’re the founder of Luminous. I’m going to make you bear the consequences of killing dozens of people!)
Sophia was speechless. Looking at the countless messages from Averie, Sophia could imagine how distorted and ferocious the expression on her mature and intellectual face.
When Sophia was fifteen years old, she took part in a fashion competition on a whim and stood out from it. Then, the established her own fashion brand.
Because she was a minor, she hired Averie to become her legal representative. Averie was at a low point and had experienced a dramatic life at that time. Her fiancé betrayed her and even ruined the company they founded together.
Sophia tapped her fingers on the keyboard and replied: [I’ll give it to you tonight.]
Averie was obviously waiting for Sophia’s response. As soon as Sophia replied, Averie was instantly excited.
Averie replied: I finally got your message!]
Averie: (Okay! I’ll wait for you till the end of time.]
Averie: [As promised, if you don’t give me the design draft tonight, I’ll hang myself in the company with others right away]
Sophia sent back an OK emoji. So, in the following time, Sophia was completely immersed in her bedroom, burying herself in her drawings.
She only went downstairs during meal times. After eating, she accompanied her grandfather for a while, and then returned back to her bedroom.
Her actions made Edward frown involuntarily. So he asked Butler, “What is she busy with again? Has her father secretly given her some company matters to handle?”
Butler shook his head and said, “Miss Roscente is gifted, but I think Mr. Allen Roscente is reluctant to let her tire herself out.” That was true.
So, what could his beloved granddaughter be busy with at such a young age? She didn’t even have time to spend with him.
Butler thought for a moment and said, “It’s actually a good thing that Miss Roscente has her matters to be busy with”
Edward frowned, suddenly thinking of something, and his expression slightly darkened.
Yesterday, something Xandra said stayed in his mind. Xandra mentioned that Sophia grew up in the countryside and

Sophia should be attending university at this age.
