“On second thought, let me make things clear. | have a candidate for Arthur's wife, and you are just a temporary passerby who appeared by his side. You have your life to live, and he has his life to spend. | want you to leave his side completely. Can you do it?” Sophia narrowed her beautiful eyes slightly and murmured to the old lady opposite her, “Can’t we part as friends?” “My grandson has already become interested in you. | know his personality best. If he decides on something, he will only get rid of it once he’s tired or disgusted with it. You don’t have to hold back, and you can hurt him however you want, but | just want to cut off his interest in you. Do you understand what | mean?” Martha asked calmly.
Sophia’s mind floundered. She had to leave him in a way that hurt him? Did it have to be like this? The first time she met Arthur flashed quickly in her mind. The more she thought about it, the more she couldn't bring herself to do it.

“I hope that you really are self-aware and know when to stop.” Martha didn’t give her room to hesitate.
Although Sophia didn’t figure out her feelings, she could only listen to Martha. She nodded. “Okay, | will. Ill cut off everything with Young Master Weiss.” “If you can make my grandson completely lose interest in you within three days, I'll give you a gift as compensation,” Martha offered Sophia hurriedly waved her hand and refused, “No, no, | don't need any compensation, Old Madam Weiss. Please rest assured, I'll do as you say and not cause you any trouble.” Saying that, she stood up and bowed to Martha before picking up her bag and running out quickly. After leaving the coffee shop, she did not ask anyone to send her back and walked in the direction of the main street. Even the noisy flow of people around her couldn't disrupt her thoughts at the moment. She didn’t know that she was going to have to use this method to cut off ties with Arthur.
After walking for a while, Sophia raised her head and saw that her house was nearby. When she entered her house, she heard her father’s angry voice coming from the living room. “Get out. You're not welcome here.” “Drake, I'm sorry. | came here to apologize to you. | really didn’t mean to betray you.” “You didn’t mean to? The day before, you knew that | was paying my debts, yet you reported me for taking bribes. | thought of you as my friend, but you set me up!” “I'm sorry, Drake! If | had another choice, | would never be so ruthless and unrighteous. You were the one who gave me everything | have now!” “What's this? Are you gonna tell me someone threatened you with a knife and forced you to do this?” Drake's voice got even louder.
“Yes, that’s exactly what happened. It was a young man. That night, his bodyguard kidnapped me into a car and used a knife to force me to set you up.” “What? Who?” Drake demanded loudly.

“He’s the current owner of your company. | only heard someone refer to him as Young Master Weiss. He's a terrifying man, almost like a demon.” Sophia stood at the entrance of the living room, listening to their conversation in disbelief. It was true that her father’s company was acquired by Arthur, but did he also do such a despicable thing behind the scenes and make someone frame her father? “I'm sorry, Drake, | really am. He chased me out of the company now, and | regret it so badly. | shouldn't have betrayed you.” Sophia walked into the living room and looked at the regretful man next to her father’s chair, asking calmly, “Mr.
Grayson, did someone really put a knife to your neck and make you betray my father?” “Yeah! He nearly sliced my neck. If | didn’t do this, | would've died a long time ago,” Aaron Grayson said huffily.
“What else did he say?” “He said that as long as | help him complete the acquisition plan, he'll reward me well. He clearly wants to send your father to his grave.” Drake looked at Sophia and sighed. “Forget it! If the company is gone, so be it! You should leave too!”
