Mr. Chairman’s Devious Wife by Brey Mitchylle

Chapter 33

Daniel sighed. “I apologize for being so busy. I know you need me. However, the things that I am doing

now are for our

future.”

Sofia wanted to tell him that he was only doing things that could benefit his future, not hers. But she

chose to keep her mouth shut as she nodded. Seeing this, he suddenly walked around the table,

decreasing the distance between them even further. Then he patted her head. “I bought this for you.”

he said as he placed a small velvet black box in front of her.

Sotta immediately tensed. She looked at him.

“Open it,” he smiled and gestured for her to open the box. For a while, she hesitated. Then she slowly

opened it and was relieved to see a small necklace instead.

“It’s a rare pink diamond. I bought it in Brunei. I thought it would suit you very well.”

Sofia stared at the pendant. It was a heart-shaped white gold. In the middle of it was the small pink

diamond. “It’s beautiful.”

“Let me put it on you.”

“No.” Sofia suddenly slapped his hand when he was about to touch the necklace. I mean-I-1 don’t want

to wear it right now. I don’t think it suits my clothes. Sotia gave an awkward laugh. It’s your gift, and I

don’t want to tarnish it by wearing something cheap.

Daniel arched his eyebrow but did not ask any more questions. Instead, he lowered his head and

kissed her forehead. Goosebumps skittered through her skin as memories of what he did with Charlotte

filled her head.

“Mother wanted to finally meet you,” Daniel said. “I know I have been delaying this for so long, but I told

her I wanted to marry someone. She asked me to meet you

“Your Your mother?” Daniel’s mother? Sofia thought about the past when she wanted to meet Daniel’s

mother. She asked him multiple times to set up this meeting, but he never did. This was because he

wanted to prove to his mother that he could stand on his own before having a serious relationship with

any woman.

In the past, Sofia never doubted that reasoning. In fact, she admired Daniel’s determination. However,

as time passed by, Sofia wanted to spend some holidays with the Beaumont Family and thought it

would be a nice gesture if she met his mother. Moreover, both of them already graduated college and

were at the right age to start a serious relationship

Still, Daniel refused.

She was almost certain that this was another ploy. With her upcoming birthday, Daniel would want her

to slowly integrate herself into the Beaumont Family.

“How about this weekend?” Daniel asked. “The annual meeting will happen today. Don’t you need to at

least res mall break?

Sofia said nothing. Instead, she thought of Mrs. Teresa Pitt Beaumont-Daniel’s mother. Mrs. Teresa

Beaumont is a wel known socialite in New York.

She was famous for hosting grand parties and charity events in the city. Teresa was known to be

elegant and graceful, always seen in the most fashionable outfits. Her reputation as a socialite was not

just about attending events; she actively participated in various charitable causes, making her a

respected figure in high society.

Despite her New York roots. Teresa chose to settle in Chicago when she married into the Beaumont

Family. The decision was rooted in love, as she wanted to be with the man she cared for deeply. Living

in Chicago, she brought a touch of New York glamour to the Beaumont household.

scertain that Damel would propose this weekend. Meanwhile, the other half was

ndering if he invited Lawrence and Charlote for his proposal. It would be nice if he did.

Alright. I still have things to prepare for the meeting

You are still going” Daniel asked surprise flashing in his eyes.

“After the scandal Daniel made a deliberate pause. Twas thinking that it would be nice if you simply

give the CEO position of LH DESIGN to another candidate for you to take a break. After all-

I have no plans of leaving the company Sona smiled. Daniel must be talking about the fact that the

company was currently getting canceled because of Charlotte’s fans and that bullying and plagiarism

issue

Again he stared at her. From the perspective of business, leaving the company and disappearing in

silence might be great choice but this is not something that Sofa was willing to do.

As if on cue, her phone started ringing. Then there was a knock on the door.

“The Director is on the other line “Miss Amores said.

Sofia smiled and looked at Daniel “I am going to take this call was his turn to leave and stop irritating

her.

Of course.” he tried to lean closer, perhaps for a kiss, but Sofia already turned to the other side to

answer the phone.

“Father?” Sofia said. Relief flashed inside her when she saw Daniel leave her office. She wondered

why that man was able to come inside her office, even though she told the guards not to allow Daniel

or Charlotte inside.

You filed a case without informing our legal team Lawrence’s voice was cold. “Sofia, what are you

doing?”

her voice. Just as she expected. there was a briel silence on the other line “Am I right, father?” she

asked.

“Of Of course Lust Lawrence let out a sharp sigh. “I just thought you were too young. If you keep this

strong act, the shareholders will devour you like a lamp Sotta, I promised your mother.” he made

another pause. I promised her that I will protect you

“Yet, you were not able to protect her from that Dr. Mulach “Sogia said.

“That was never my intention.

while rolling her eyes. Then her voice softened 1-1 just thought that she let out a dramatic sigh.
