Chapter 99 - 099 This is Settled
"Mom, this Lucy Wells is Sophie’s good friend at the branch office," Grace Wilson said with a smile.
"What kind of person? Her good friend? Is it because she wants to cozy up to her that they’re hanging out together?" Lily Warren disdainfully lectured Sophie Wilson, "I’m not saying this to you because of anything, but you are the boss’s daughter, so you need to be more cautious."
"Some people around you might have ulterior motives and will do anything for money. Look at yourself, you don’t even have time to join your family for a meal because of this so-called good friend. Are you out of your mind?"
Even when Sophie Wilson was not wrong, Lily Warren could find fault with her. And now, given the situation, Lily Warren had even more to say.
"Mom, Sophie wouldn’t do that," Sophie hadn’t even spoken yet when Grace Wilson first explained for her. "Sophie definitely wouldn’t be deceived. Anyway, the manager of the company using low-quality waterproof paint was Lucy Wells’ uncle."
"But Sophie didn’t show him the slightest favor. Mom, you can be assured."
Grace Wilson’s so-called persuasion was, in fact, secretly inciting.
Initially, Sophie Wilson managed to secure a larger project than Grace Wilson’s, which caused a lingering resentment within Lily Warren, prompting her to enlist Eva to make trouble for Sophie Wilson, but it ultimately failed.
Time and again, Lily Warren’s anger continued to simmer and pile up, and upon hearing this, she got riled up.
"Sophie, what exactly did you do wrong?" Lily Warren reprimanded with a stern face, "The company took on such a big project originally to build a reputation."
"You, on the other hand, went and used connections to hand this over to Lucy Wells’ uncle. Look, almost caused a mishap!"
Yesterday’s incident made it to the newspapers, and the TV station even broadcasted live.
