A Vengeful Girl

Chapter 470 A Talk with Charles's Legal Wife

Charles tried to lower down his voice because he didn't want to disturb Linda's rest. But the tone of his

voice was as cold as ice.

Sophia Liu got goosebumps all over her body as she heard Charles's words. She was so frightened

that she dared not move, not even a little bit, and stayed standing on the floor. She had never heard

Charles speak in such a threatening manner.

"Mr. Mu, I'm sorry. Sophia didn't do it on purpose. Please give her one more chance. Please?" Sophia

was still in shock, so she didn't utter anything. Leo Liu, instead, opened his mouth to help Sophia beg

for mercy.

"You have the nerve to apologize for her? You are her manager, yet you've failed to manage your

artist's behaviour. You also have to pay for this. You didn't do your duty as her manager. Why did you

let her sneak into my room?" Charles scolded Leo furiously.

"It's my fault. All my fault, " Leo bowed down and went on apologizing to Charles.

However, Charles's anger didn't subside. His eyes fumed with fury, and his face completely darkened.

He was radiating a cold aura that pierced through Leo's bones. Then, he slightly moved his lips to

speak, "Since it was all your fault, then I don't think you are capable enough to be her manager any

more. You can quit now."

Leo's heart sank as he heard Charles's words.

He understood that Charles had meant that he was fired.

But as long as Sophia would be able to continue her career, he would accept the punishment. He

would be fine even if he couldn't stay by Sophia's side. He would do anything he could to help Sophia.

Leo took a glance at Sophia and then slowly closed his eyes. He had stayed by her side for so many

years. And she had come this far in her career. It might be the right time for him to leave her. Leo was

already getting tired of being with a woman who he deeply in love with but would never love him back.

"It had nothing to do with Leo. It was me who wanted to do it, " Sophia finally opened her mouth.

Not knowing why, when Sophia heard that Charles wanted to deprive Leo of his position as her

manager, she felt distressed. Deep in her heart, she didn't want that to happen; she didn't want Leo to

leave her.

In the past few years, Sophia thought she had always been so annoyed with Leo. He was such a

busybody who usually intervened in her business.

If Leo wasn't her classmate and ex-boyfriend from university and if he hadn't worked hard for her,

Sophia would've wanted another manager. But now that he was about to be replaced, Sophia suddenly

felt that she really didn't want him to leave.

"Sophia, you..." Leo stammered.

Linda looked at the farce with keen interest. She kept observing Leo's facial expressions. She sensed

that Leo loved Sophia a lot. Judging from the look in his eyes as he gazed at Sophia, Linda was sure

that Leo had feelings for Sophia.

Every time Sophia spoke, Linda noticed that Leo would attentively fix his eyes on Sophia, without

moving them away from her. That was what a person would do to his or her lover.

Sophia clenched her teeth and completely shut up.

"Excuse me. I'm kind of curious. Miss Liu, how did you enter this room?" Linda suddenly inquired © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Sophia.

It seemed that Charles didn't know that Sophia would be in his room, so Sophia had deliberately let

herself in it. If she couldn't enter the room from the door, Linda wondered how she got in.

Sophia glanced at Linda, who was casually sitting on the sofa. A dash of jealousy flashed through

Sophia's eyes. She remained silent because she didn't want to talk with Linda.

Linda was Charles's legal wife. Aware of it, Sophia somehow felt quite inferior in front of her.

She intuitively disliked Linda. Linda was the stumbling block that stopped her from getting together with

Charles.

Sophia looked at Linda's belly. Charles must be the father of the baby in her womb. Her belly was

already so big. Sophia really envied her. How she hoped that she could have Charles's baby...

But her chances were slim, so Sophia felt so depressed about it. This woman was the Xia clan's eldest

daughter. It was impossible for her to make this couple divorce. Hence, Sophia was determined that

she would try her efforts to become Charles's mistress. She couldn't be his wife, but at least, she could

be his mistress.

Charles was such an outstanding man. Sophia didn't believe that he would be willing to have only one

woman in his life. He had to have a lot of mistresses, discreet lovers. Although Sophia hadn't heard

about any of Charles's scandals with women, she still was confident of her own charm, because ever

since she was young, Sophia had always received a lot of love letters from men.

"My wife is asking you. Answer her. Now!" Charles urged Sophia.

He furrowed his eyebrows when he saw that Sophia paid no attention to Linda's question.

"Honey, go out with Paul first. I want to have a talk with Miss Liu in private. She seems to like you very

much, " said Linda.

"Honey..."

"Don't worry. I just want to stay alone with her for a short while. I have a few words for her. You men

don't need to hear them, " Linda said as she smiled at Charles.

Linda realised that Sophia, another one of Charles's admirers, wasn't easy to deal with.

Since Linda insisted to, Charles and Paul had no choice but to go out of the room.

"Leo, right? Please go out as well."

Linda saw that Leo had bandages all over his body, and he still had bloodstains on his face, so she

waved at him, asking him to rest in his own room.

"No, I won't leave. What are you going to do to Sophia?" Leo looked at Linda with vigilance.

Linda instantly burst into laughter. She was pregnant with twins and about to be in labor soon. What

could she do to hurt Sophia? She just wanted to have a talk with Sophia to bring some sense into her.

Charles was already a married man with wife and coming babies. It was pointless for Sophia to pursue

him. It was a waste of her time.

If Charles had the slightest trace of desire toward Sophia, things might be different. But the fact was

that he didn't love her at all. There was no point in badgering Charles. Moreover, Sophia was currently

a popular star of Charles's company. If any scandal or negative news about her and Charles was

leaked out to the public, it would have a bad impact on both her career and Charles's company.

"I just want to have some girl talk with Sophia. What do you think I could do to her? Please go out. I

won't hurt her, " Linda said patiently.

After hearing Linda's words, Sophia grinned with contempt.

'Is the legal wife going to negotiate with me? I bet she wants to frighten me away, ' thought Sophia.

Leo hesitated and looked at Linda with suspicion. But he still left the room in the end. He knew that

Linda would want to talk Sophia into giving up her intentions on Charles. Leo also didn't want Sophia to

get herself involved with Charles and to become a home-wrecker. He also believed that Linda wouldn't

hurt Sophia.

The door was finally closed. Outside the room, Charles asked Paul to get another room in the hotel. He

absolutely wouldn't step into this room again as Sophia had laid down naked on the bed. Since Linda

was here, they wouldn't go back home tonight.

It wasn't good for a pregnant woman to travel a long way in a car late at night. Plus, Charles didn't want

to risk Linda's life again and take a helicopter. They would just have to spend one more night here.

After the men had left, there were only three women left in the room now: Linda, Sophia, and Anna.

"Talk. What do you want from me? I can answer all of your questions. For example, how is everything

going between Mr. Mu and I? Have I slept with Mr. Mu yet? Are these the questions you want to ask me

about?" Sophia said aggressively.
