"Sophie Allen, are you robbing me?"
Ryan Richard’s eyes widened as he hastily retrieved his phone, fuming, "This is all the money I have. Do you expect me to give it all to you?"
He couldn’t believe that the Sophie Allen, who so willingly returned a few hundred yuan, had now become .
"So, you were pretending all along! I knew it! There could not be such a frugal woman like you, you were only pretending in front of me!" Ryan Richard pointed accusingly at her.
With a pale countenance, Sophie Allen laughed lightly, "It’s up to you, Mr. Richard - transfer the money or..."
Ryan Richard gritted his teeth in anger.
Although he was a man, even if this video got out, he wouldn’t feel anything. However, he was worried about the image of Richard Corporation.
Richard Corporation was about to launch a new perfume in the market, and he had to succeed in this project, to impress the elders, and secure his place as the CEO of Richard Corporation.
At this critical juncture, the video absolutely could not be leaked as it would have a significant impact on Richard Corporation’s reputation.
"Fine! Here, all yours!"
Although it pained Ryan Richard, he gritted his teeth and reluctantly transferred the money to Sophie Allen.
After all, his family was still wealthy, and this was just the balance in one of his accounts.
Sophie Allen naturally understood this, but she found it bothersome to argue with Ryan Richard, and was happily looking at the transaction of 470,000.
"Open your album. I want to see you delete it with my own eyes!" Ryan Richard demanded, staring at her intently.
Sophie Allen curved her lips. With a cold look in her eyes, she deleted the video in front of Ryan Richard.
"Did you save it anywhere else? Or send it to someone else?" Ryan Richard asked, still not at ease.
"No." Sophie Allen looked at him and stated coolly, "Now that the money is in my hands, if I were to release your private video, it would be a crime punishable by up to ten years in prison."
Ryan Richard visibly relaxed and feigned concern, "Charlotte, wouldn’t it have been good if you could be a little understanding earlier, then we wouldn’t end up in this situation..."
He was referring to the issue with Aunt Watson.
Sophie Allen’s eyes paused for a moment, emanating a cold light as she glared at Ryan Richard.
"Fine, fine, I spoke too much. I’m heading to the venue first, you should come soon." Ryan Richard raised both hands in surrender, then turned around and left the lounge.
Sophie Allen looked at her mobile screen and gave a soft chuckle.
She pushed open the banquet hall’s back door.
Drifting in her gown, Sophie Allen walked into the venue, with her delicate chin up and her chest out.
In that moment, everyone’s gaze was drawn to her.
The green dress made Sophie Allen appear even whiter, just like an ethereal sprite dancing elegantly in nature.
"True, clothes make the man; Miss Allen is absolutely stunning in this attire!"
"Miss Allen is looking wonderfully fresh. She’s totally different from when she first entered!"
"Sophie Allen’s demeanor is exceptionally good, only she can carry off this dress; otherwise, it would look vulgar on another person!" Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by novel-fire.ɴet
"A complete transformation, she looks so beautiful."
The crowd was all praise for Sophie Allen’s beauty.
Hearing these, Emily Allen’s face turned green with envy. She glared at Mia Stewart beside her and gritted her teeth, "Mom, why did you give such an expensive dress to Sophie Allen to wear? Look at her, she’s stealing my spotlight!"
Mia Stewart’s expression was similar, she had no idea that this dress would have a completely different effect on Sophie Allen.
Originally, she wanted Sophie Allen to be overshadowed by her daughter Emily Allen, but now...
