Chapter 310
Sonia was going through some reports when she heard her phone vibrating. She picked it up and read
Tim‘s message before she sent him a voice note. “Are you okay now?”
Tim reached a hand out to hail a cab. He got into the cab before he typed out a message for Sonia. I‘m
fine. I didn‘t admit to anything, but the police seemed to think that I was an accomplice. They don‘t have
the right to arrest me since neither they nor Tina had any evidence. The only way I‘d get arrested is if
they find those six men.‘
Sonia heaved a sigh of relief after reading the text. “Where are those six men now? Is it likely for them to
be found by the police?” she asked through a voice note.
‘No. I‘ve changed their names and sent them out of the country. They will never return to this place, Tim
replied through text. In other words, the police would never find the six men. As long as the six men
weren‘t around to serve as witnesses, Tina would have to bear the weight of all the crimes.
She nodded once she understood the situation. “That‘s great,” she uttered through a voice note. They
texted for a while more before they ended the conversation. Right then, Daphne knocked and stepped
into Sonia‘s office. “Mrs. Gray and Miss Rina Gray from Triforce Enterprise are here to see you,
President Reed.”
Rina Gray? Her appearance sure caused a great deal of discussion in Seafield recently, Sonia thought.
The public only found out that the Grays had more than one daughter after she showed up a few days
ago. The Grays announced that they had an elder daughter who had been kidnapped when she was
young. Well, Rina might have been in the spotlight for a few days, but the Grays‘ youngest daughter is the hot topic once more.
“Mrs. Gray?” Sonia narrowed her eyes. “What are they doing here?”

Daphne shook her head. “I‘m not sure about that, but I assume that it has something to do with Tina.”
“Is that so? Just ignore them, then” Sonia uttered with the wave of a hand.
“Are you saying that you don‘t want to see them?” Daphne asked.
“Yeah.” Sonia nodded.
“Okay. I‘ll get someone to show them out of the building now.” Daphne adjusted her glasses before she
replied. She turned around to leave the office, but she barely got the chance to open the door before
someone flung the door open from the other side.
Julia stormed in with Rina beside her. The receptionist followed behind them timidly and gave Daphne an
apologetic smile. “I didn‘t let them in on purpose, Miss Daphne. They insisted on coming up, and they
threatened to kill themselves right here if I called security to bring them out, so...”
Daphne felt a headache coming to her as she stared at the two unwelcome guests. She massaged her
temples as she turned to Sonia. “President Reed, look...”
Sonia heard everything the receptionist said, and she shot Julia a cold glare as she pressed her red lips
together. “I‘ll handle this. Both of you can go back to work.”
“Alright” Daphne replied. The receptionist heaved a sigh of relief when she realized that Sonia hadn‘t
faulted her for letting the two intruders in. Once they left, Sonia, Julia, and Rina were the only people in
the office. Sonia leaned against her chair as she looked up at the mother and daughter duo who were
walking toward her.
Although Sonia was young, she held a high position in the field and therefore had a more domineering
aura than them. Julia felt pressured the moment Sonia‘s gaze landed on her. After all, Julia was used to
her life as a rich man‘s wife–all she ever did was enjoy her life while spending her husband‘s money. Her
aura was nothing in comparison to Sonia‘s. Furthermore, she seemed even meeker ever since all the
incidents with Triforce Enterprise and Tina‘s arrest.
Julia could clearly feel herself being overpowered by Sonia even though Sonia was much younger than
her. As much as she felt displeased by that, Julia had no choice but to contain her dissatisfaction as she
had visited Sonia with other intentions in mind. After rubbing her slightly red eyes, Julia took a deep
breath to calm herself down before she forced a smile. “Miss Reed,”
“Sit!” Sonia pointed at the chairs in front of her desk. Julia glanced in the direction of her finger before
she pulled a chair out to sit down. Sonia wasn‘t looking at Julia at all. Instead, her red lips were curled
into a smirk as she gazed at Rina. “She‘s the eldest daughter you guys have just reunited with, riaht.
Mrs. Grav?” Sonia feianed curiosity.
“Yes. This is my eldest daughter, Rina.” Julia reached out and held onto Rina‘s hand before patting the
back of her hand gently. Compassion and love spread across the older woman‘s face–it was clear that
she was truly fond of Rina.
The more Julia was fond of Rina, the better Sonia and Zane‘s plan would eventually work out for them.
Yet, for some reason, Sonia felt a faint uneasiness in her chest whenever she saw Julia‘s tender and
loving gaze toward Rina. Sonia even felt rather annoyed by it. I must be losing my mind! she thought.
She shook her head a little and suppressed her confusing emotions before she put on a small smile.
“Hello, Miss Rina.”
“It‘s nice to meet you, Miss Reed.” Rina pretended as if she didn‘t know Sonia, and she addressed Sonia
in a bashful voice before hiding behind Julia and acting as if she were a timid young girl. Sonia
understood what Rina was doing, and she could find no fault with the way Rina acted then. Sonia simply
nodded before shifting her gaze back to Julia. “Is there any reason you‘re here to see me, Mrs. Gray?”
Julia responded with an embarrassed laugh. “Well, I‘m here for Tina‘s sake.”
Sonia‘s gaze flickered when she heard her words. So, my guess was right! She looked at Julia, who had
completely changed her attitude and demeanor toward Sonia. “Oh? Are you here for the sake of your
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmyounger daughter?” Sonia said with a smile that didn‘t reach her eyes. That‘s right. Ever since the Grays announced the existence of their eldest daughter, Tina is just the younger child at home.
“Yeah.” Julia let out a sigh as tears began to well up in her eyes. Sonia had long realized how Tina would
often tear up whenever she was trying to act innocent. Now, I finally know where Tina got that habit from. Like mother, like daughter, huh?
“Miss Reed.” Julia clasped her hands together as she started at Sonia. “I know that Tina shouldn‘t have
framed you, but... she made a rash decision without thinking. Could you possibly,”
“Are you asking if I can set her free?” Sonia wore the same faint smirk as she interrupted Julia.
Julia felt uneasy when she saw the mocking look on Sonia‘s face, but she had no choice but to tolerate it
for the sake of Tina. “Yes, Miss Reed. That‘s why! came here. If you‘re willing to set Tina free, I‘I... I‘ll
give you five million!” she cried while nodding. “What do you think, Miss Reed?” Julia held her hand out
toward sonia as she spoke.
The smile remained on Sonia‘s face as she kept quiet without answering On the other hand, Rina, who st
she couldn‘t believe that Julia was willing to pay five million just to save
Tina. It was evident that Julia wasn‘t about to give up on Tina, it looks like I‘ll have to work harder
to weaken Mom‘s love for Tina so that I can successfully chase Tina out of the picture.
Julia started to get annoyed when Sonia didn‘t respond to her offer after some time had passed. Julia
thought that five million was too little for Sonia. With her teeth gritted Julia held five fingers up i ll’ add
another five million to that. How does ten million sound for you?”
“You sure are generous, Mrs. Gray. But can you afford to give me ten million?” Sonia held her head up
as she sniggered at Julia “i heard that Toby canceled all of his existing partnerships with Triforce
Enterprise when he called the marriage off. Once the public found out about this, many companies have
pulled out from their partnerships with Triforce, and Triforce has fallen 20 places down from its spot in the
Top 10 businesses in Seafield ranking. i heard that you are struggling with a reduction in capital and im
sure the company will be further impacted by the backlash following tina s arrest last night. what exacitly
are you trying to tell me ? julias expression faltered as she felt increasingly troubled by the situation.
