Sophia eyed him up and down, "I was thinking, will those women keep coming on to you if I put
makeup on your face and make it look like you are disfigured?"
Drake said after a shiver, "Of course, they will. You know, for some of them, they still will as long as I'm
rich. They don't care if I look like an alien."
Sophia nodded as she thought he had a point.
"Never mind. I don't have that time. Besides, I don't wanna look at you if you really look ugly."
Then she left.
Drake was rendered speechless.
Nice move!
He was just being unwanted by his wife!
William came to apologize to Sophia when he heard about what Cathy did at the Riley manor.
"Sophia, I'm sorry. I spoiled her. Just let her get away with it this time. And you can tell me if you are
still unhappy about what she did. I'll make it up to you."
"You don't have to. Just tell her to stay away from my husband."
"Sure, I will."
William just got seventy billion. But everyone wanted more money. So if he did or said something to
offend Sophia, then there was no more money for him ever again.
Seventy billion was a lot, but he would spend it all eventually. William still wanted to ask Sophia for Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!
money by that day.
Seeing that Sophia was okay with it, William left with relief.
The next day.
A scandal was released on the news that the actor playing the leading role in a TV show that Cathy
had invested in had sexual relationships with multiple women at the same time and it went rogue.
There were plenty of photos of him and those women on that video which totally wrecked his career.
And that actor was the one Cathy had chosen.
People on the internet were all against that show now.
They commented below that news that they wouldn't watch that show unless they fill in another actor
for that role.
This happened during a tough time when show business was serious about this kind of issue. So the
money Cathy put into this show was gone.
There was more of that. The project with Mr. Knight Cathy invested was also blown off, so the money
was gone, too.
A conservative estimate of what she lost was at least 300 million.
Cathy only put tens of millions of money into that show, but that was over 200 million she invested in
that project with Mr. Knight.
Three hundred million was gone just like that with the money she spent on the villa she had just bought
and other stuff, which totaled almost 500 million.
Cathy was trying to kill herself at home as she couldn't take this shock. William could do nothing about
it, so he had no choice but to call Sophia.
Drake didn't want to see Cathy, so he didn't come. Only Sophia, Abbott, and Laura did.
Cathy shouted, "What are you doing here? Don't try to talk me out of it. Now I'm a mess, and you all
look at me like a joke. What's the point?"
Sophia sneered, "You can die if you want, and nobody would care. But you have to leave a note saying
that you are doing this for something you did, not us."
Cathy couldn't believe what she had just said, "Sophia, how could you say this? Am I that meaningless
to you?"
"Aren't you? You've always said that you could do better w ithout me. Well, that's fine. I gave you
money to help you start your business. But look what happened then?"
Cathy thought for a while and then burst out crying.
William said anxiously, "Sophia, I do prefer a son, but she is my daughter. I can't watch her die! You are
not helping here!"
"Don't worry. She wouldn't do that!" Sophia replied.
Abbott shook his head, and Laura also was speechless about this.
Cathy grabbed the rope she had prepared to hang herself, "Who says I wouldn't? I'm hanging myself
right now!"
William wasn't composed like Sophia, and he yelled, "Cathy, I'll give you everything you want as long
as you come down here!"
Cathy hesitated for a moment, "Are you serious?"
"Of course! I would never lie to you!" William agreed to everything to stop her.
"Okay then. I want that seventy billion you got."
William was in shock.
Abbott and Laura seemed to have figured this out already.
Sophia couldn't help laughing.
After a long while, William said, "Cathy, what did you just say? Come again?"
"I thought you said you would give me everything I want. I now feel terrible that I lost all my money. And
the best way to help me get over it is to give me more money."
William was furious, "Cathy, you can just go die! I don't wanna see you anymore!"
"Dad, you..." Cathy was also irritated.
"It never occurred to me that you've been planning for my money all along. Cathy, do you even think of
me as your father?"
Cathy said with disdain, "If you do think of me as your daughter, you would have split that money with
me the second you got it!"
"What? So you came to be nice to me for my money?" William froze.
"What else? We are family. How come I just get 500 million, and you get 70 billion? That's not fair!"
Sophia had heard enough of this crap. She turned around and said, "Mom, Dad, we should leave now."
"Okay."
Abbott nodded as he didn't want to watch this drama anymore.
Cathy yelled when Laura was also about to leave, "You stay! I'll kill myself if this doesn't get settled!"
William's patience ran out, "Okay! Just go die!"
Sophia refused to stay and watch this, so she dragged Abbott and Laura away regardless of Cathy's
threat.
Laura heaved a sigh when she got out.
"When they lived abroad, they just asked for money at the most. But now it's like a drama show every
single day since they came here."
Abbott shook his head, "It's just, my mom has to go through this alone. William wouldn't be like this if
our dad was still here."
Sophia said with frustration, "There's nothing we can do about it. Just let them deal with it themselves."
Abbott didn't know how to handle this, so he did as Sophia said.
Sophia saw Bonnie learning to take care of pets with those hot vets when she got home after work.
She walked over, "Bonnie, what have you learned today?"
Then those hot vets walked away from Sophia the next second.
Sophia looked at them with confusion, and asked, "What is happening?"
