Chapter 1282: Thank You So Much
"Of course," Henry Chapman said in a deep voice.
"If you have that ability, why didn’t you act? Instead, you chose to stand in the crowd and watch. If I wasn’t mistaken earlier, you were the closest to the thief."
"Didn’t you say during the promotion that you didn’t use a stunt double in the movie? With such skills, why didn’t you act?"
"Did you lie back then or do you simply lack civic responsibility?" Henry Chapman cut off all of Sophie’s options.
No matter how she responds, it won’t end well.
He just hates Sophie Wilson, what is her problem?
She even wants to start a company to compete against the Chapman Family!
Does she think that anyone is worthy of being their rival?
Someone of Sophie’s character? She’s not worthy!
Sophie Wilson laughed as she looked at Henry Chapman and asked, "So you mean, I should fight the thief with my child in my arms? If my child gets hurt, will you take responsibility?"
The mothers in the crowd heard Sophie finally retort and they immediately spoke up, "Exactly, a mother naturally wants to protect her child first!"
"She’s holding a child, how can she rush forward?"
"With so many young men around, and security, why make a woman holding a child charge forward, what are you thinking?"
Their words weren’t just directed at Henry Chapman but also shamed those who had been led astray by him.
They had overlooked this issue earlier...
Henry had always been respected by everyone, usually people sought him out, praised him.
When he appeared publicly, he was always admired, never had he been criticized like this.
"Couldn’t you just put the child down?" Henry Chapman changed his expression several times before finally squeezing out a rebuttal.
As soon as he uttered that, the crowd hissed.
Why insist that a woman with a child be the one to grab the thief when there are so many others here?
Just moments ago, they admired this man, but now... they’re a bit disappointed.
"Well, this gentleman must be full of a sense of justice," Sophie Wilson said with a smile, showing no anger, "But why are you targeting me?"
When Sophie pointed this out, the crowd started to realize.
Indeed, it seemed that this person had been targeting Sophie Wilson from the beginning.
While people naturally admired those who helped, Sophie was holding a child—not convenient, and potentially dangerous for the child. Why insist that she make a move?
"I just can’t stand someone who clearly has the ability but does nothing," Henry Chapman defended, his face darkening.
"Alright, this gentleman full of justice, you make a valid point. However, I think your social experience is quite lacking," Sophie Wilson said calmly, "Do you think the thief acted alone? He has accomplices."
"If I put my child aside, I could catch him, but his accomplices would then hurt my child. If they cause irreversible harm to my child, can you take responsibility?" As Sophie said this, her voice suddenly became serious.
As a mother, this instinct to protect her child drew nods of agreement from the people nearby.
Of course, Henry Chapman wouldn’t acknowledge Sophie’s claim, "You say there are accomplices, but they..."
"That lady really caught the thief, and there are two accomplices!" A security guard rushed over, full of joy, thanking Sophie Wilson, "They’ve all been handed over to the police, thank you so much!"
