Adam was on his way to meet an old friend. His expression immediately soured when he saw his good-for-nothing son-inw.


    Seeing Adam was ignoring her, Sophia repeated, "Hey, Dad. Zachary and I were just going to take Benjamin out for a stroll. Do you want to join us?"


    Adam scoffed. "You all don''t look like you really want me to go."


    "Nonsense! Of course we''d love for you to join."


    Adam waved his hand. "Forget it. I''m not the type of person to tag along where I''m not weed."


    After that, he put his hands behind his back and walked to the elevator with his entourage behind him.


    Sophia frowned and sighed helplessly. Her rtionship with Adam had been tense the past few days. She wondered when he would transfer all of his assets to her.Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    Sophia did not want to have another quarrel with her father, so she deliberately slowed down her pace while wheeling Jeremy so that they would have to take the next elevator ride.


    On the way, Jeremy asked, "Did you and your father argue?"


    Sophia snapped out of her thoughts and pretended to exin nonchntly, "Of course not. Don''t overthink things, Zachary."


    Jeremy narrowed his eyes. "I remember your father always spoils you rotten, but he''s changedtely. What happened?"


    Even Jeremy could tell Adam''s attitude toward Sophia had experienced a 180-degree turn. This just made her even more worried about her inheritance. She guessed Melinda and Lilin must have spoken ill about her to Adam, and that was why there was such a big change in his attitude!


    ''D*mn Melinda! D*mn Lilin! They should just go to h*ll!'' thought Sophia.


    "Zachary, it''s nothing, really! Dad is just in a bad mood because Melinda and Lilin had run away from home. That''s all," said Sophia.


    The corner of Zachary''s mouth went down. "Is that so? I thought it was because of me that your rtionship with your father has worsened."


    "Nonsense! You should know Dad approves of us. Really!"


    The elevator door opened, and Sophia wheeled Jeremy in with Benjamin obediently following behind. There was a dead silence in the air after the door closed.


    "If your father doesn''t approve of us, and he asked you to choose between me and your inheritance, which would you choose?" asked Jeremy suddenly.


    Sophia was a little taken aback by his question. She chuckled awkwardly and answered, "Zachary, what are you talking about? Dad will never do that to me! You know he dotes on me a lot." "I''m just saying "if"."


    Sophia did not even want to think about that. "There''s never going to be an ''if''. I''m never going to let that happen."


    Jeremy chuckled nonchntly. "So I take it that it''ll be very hard for you to choose between me and money?"


    Sophia detected the hint of sarcasm in his tone. "Zachary, where''s all thising from? It''s not an either or situation. I''d choose you, but I won''t give up my inheritance rights either. I deserve to get every penny that my dad has! Plus, how am I supposed to give you and Benjamin a good life if we don''t have money?"
