Chapter 4 Unforeseen Threat (Part One)

Sophia looked at her father in disbelief, feeling incredibly disappointed in him. 'He really loves his
company, doesn't he?' she thought to herself bitterly. Even at this point, Sophia could believe that her
own father would try to sell her out to an old pervert like Wade. Just the thought of it made her stomach
turn!

"I don't care if you lose the JH Group," Sophia said coldly. Hearing this, Caspar slowly walked over to
her, his eyes glowing with hate.

"I don't even want to stay in this family anymore!" she continued. "So what if the YS Group buys you
out? That has nothing to do with me!"

Slap!

Caspar's hand struck Sophia's face loud and hard! The blow made Sophia stumble onto the ground.
Her handbag fell with her, and its contents were scattered all over the floor.

Sophia lifted up her hand to her cheek. It was burning with pain. She could also taste a bit of blood as
she licked her lips.

What a vicious man!

The way Caspar acted freaked Stellar out. Taking a step back, Stellar suddenly noticed a small card
that came out of Sophia's bag...

"Is that a business card of Victor from the YS Group?" Stellar pointed at the business card on the floor,
blinking in surprise.

All of a sudden, Caspar's eyes lit up. He hurriedly turned around and bent down to pick it up. With a
shaky hand, he read the name written on it. "Y-yes! It's him!" Perhaps it was because of the excitement



or maybe it was something else... but whatever the reason, Caspar's voice was trembling. "Sophia...
you... Why do you have this? Do you know him? When were you able to meet him?"

It was not easy to get through to Victor personally. Generally, normal people would have to get in touch
first with Victor's assistant, and even then there was no certainty that they would be able to speak with
Victor himself. There were only a handful of people who could contact Victor directly and apparently
Sophia was one of them.

At this moment, Caspar's thoughts started to race. 'If someone from the JH Group had the chance to
have a relationship with Victor, this could be our saving grace! We would even prosper greater than we
ever did before! This is far more efficient than having to please Wade.'

Sophia slowly picked up her things scattered on the ground and put them back to her bag. Then, she
slowly stood up. Just seconds ago, the couple had hard and angry looks on their faces. Now, they were
beaming at her expectantly. "I just happened to pick this up. I don't really know him," Sophia said as
she straightened her dress out.

Suddenly, a woman's keen and disdainful voice came from the door. "Oh, please! How could she know
Victor? She's not even that good-looking!"

It was nobody else but Jenny, who successfully stole Peter from Sophia.

Hearing Jenny's voice, Sophia could not help but let out a tired sigh. A cold smile made its way to the
corners of Sophia's lips. 'So this bitch who just screwed around with my boyfriend is now suddenly back
home to make my life even more miserable... That's just perfect!'

"Jenny, where have you been? Why didn't you come back home until now?" Stellar asked, obviously
worried about her biological daughter.



"Mom, relax. There's no need to get mad. I just spent a night at my friend's house. I'm now at home
and safe, aren't I?" Jenny said in a sweet voice, as she walked up to her mother and held her arm.

Hearing this, Stellar's face immediately softened. From the day Jenny was born, Stellar doted on
Jenny, and even spoiled her so much that she deeply believed in whatever Jenny said.

Meanwhile, Caspar was still deeply absorbed in the card Sophia had. There was one time that he saw
Victor's card in a prominent businessman's hand, and it looked exactly like the one that came out of
Sophia's bag. There wasn't an ounce of doubt in his heart, for he knew that there wouldn't be a single
soul who would dare to make counterfeits of Victor's name card.

"You said that Sophia doesn't know Victor. But how could you be so sure about that?" Caspar turned to
look at Jenny and asked seriously.

Jenny swallowed hard. She did not expect Caspar to question her like that, and she felt a bit guilty.
Furrowing her brows, Jenny pointed an accusing finger at Sophia. "Does she even know what kind of
person Victor is? How could she possibly get a business card from a man like that? Don't be ridiculous!
If she knows Victor, I will... I will..."

Jenny stammered, failing to continue her sentence. Stellar quickly tugged at Jenny's clothes, signaling
her to just stop.

Caspar's face darkened. "Well? What will you do? Don't think I'm just going to let you slip by, Jenny.
You didn't come back last night. I haven't settled accounts with you!"

Hearing this, Jenny glanced at Sophia resentfully. Sophia lift her eyebrows. There was a sly glimmer in
her eyes as her mouth twitched upwards. "Please don't be so hard on Jenny," Sophia said with her
head raised. "She's not a little girl anymore. Since she has a boyfriend, it's normal for her not to come
back home sometimes."



'If Caspar and Stellar knew that their daughter had an affair with Peter, they would be pissed off!'
Sophia thought to herself wryly.

As expected, Caspar and Stellar looked at Jenny with shock and anger. Their eyes widened in
disbelief. "Wha... What?!"

"Jenny, when did you get a boyfriend?!" Stellar fumed.

"I... I don't have a boyfriend. Mom, don't listen to anything Sophia says. She just wants you to start
hating me!" Jenny defended, trying to get their attention back to Sophia.

However, Sophia wasn't so keen on giving up just yet. With a smirk, she raised a delicate eyebrow at
Jenny. "Are you absolutely sure you don't have a boyfriend?" Sophia asked slowly.

Jenny gritted her teeth and stared at Sophia. Jenny couldn't help but curse in her heart. 'What the hell
is this bitch trying to do?!' If her parents knew that she was with a man, they would skin her
alive!
