Chapter 2601
Sophia nodded. “Whichever way, get it done as soon as possible”
She put her tablet aside and let out a sigh. A wave of self-blame washed over her. She had acted too impulsively this time, almost jeopardizing her son’s happiness.
She went downstairs to keep her mother company. Cecelia asked, “Did you find anything?”
*The person gave me their account number, and I’ve sent Leia to verify it.”
“This person is clearly up to no good,” Cecelia said angrily, then turned to her daughter. “Sophia, when you married Artie, our family wasn’t well-off. But you’ve come a long way, and you know better than anyone that true happiness can only be found when two people love each other.”
Sophia nodded. “Mom, I was wrong.” After a pause, she confessed, “I also made a mistake. I met Harmony privately.”
Cecelia was surprised, “What? You met her privately?! What did you say to her?”
“I… I thought she was a promiscuous girl because of the photos, so I… I hoped she would leave Ezekiel on her own.”
“You’re too impulsive, Sophia. I understand that you’re worried about who Ezekiel’s future wife will be, but you can’t act so rashly!” Cecelia looked at her daughter.
“I will apologize to Miss Mayo, Sophia said. She glanced at the time; it was past 9 p.m. It seemed her son had gone to Harmony.
“You’re just too concerned about Ezekiel.”
“Yes, when I met Miss Mayo today, I could tell that she’s not a bad person. Her eyes are pure, her demeanor is good, and she doesn’t seem like someone who would do anything for money.”
“I’ve asked around for you. I have a friend in the industry; her daughter-in-law is in the entertainment business. She said that Harmony is a hardworking and ambitious girl, but she never picked up any bad habits from the industry. She’s a genuine person.”
Sophia was surprised that her mother had also looked into it. “Mom, you’re really invested in this!” Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
“Of course, I have my eyes set on her to be my granddaughter-in-law.”
Sophia sighed. “I can’t believe I was manipulated. It’s truly frustrating.”
Meanwhile, Yunna stared at her phone, waiting for the transfer of 150 thousand. However, she waited for a while and didn’t receive any transfer information. She became alert. Is Mrs. Weiss intentionally testing me? Could she have seen through my plan?
At that moment, she quickly packed her bags and prepared to leave. She had to get as far away as possible.
Harmony had returned to the hotel to rest after the gala. On the way, Sera informed her that her encounter with Jensen that night had already sparked a heated discussion on the internet.
“Look, someone even found photos of the two of you on campus! I don’t know who took them,” Sera said, then sighed. “Jensen is a decent guy. It would be good if you can develop a relationship with him.”
Harmony couldn’t help but feel bitter. “Sera, is what I’m doing really right? What will Ezekiel do when he sees this? Will it provoke him?”
“When he comes to confront you, you can only use this as an excuse. Otherwise, how will he give up on you? And how will you explain it to his mother?” Sera said.
Just then, the doorbell of Harmony’s hotel room rang. “It must be the food delivery,” said Sera. “I’ll get the door.”
When Sera opened the door, she was taken aback and stepped back in disbelief. The man outside the door appeared somewhat disheveled and was panting, clearly having run all the way here.
It was Ezekiel!
Sera was startled. She knew Ezekiel would come to find Harmony, but she didn’t expect him to arrive so quickly.
“Harmony… Harmony…” Sera quickly called out to the girl on the couch.
Harmony was already feeling tired. Without looking up, she murmured, “Sera, I don’t have much of an appetite. You go ahead and eat. I just need some rest for a little while.”
