Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around! novel Chapter 391

Sophia stared at the flash drive on the table and gritted her teeth. “You hired the netizen, didn’t you?”

“That’s right,” Sylvia replied as she took a sip of her tea, “That mother of yours weeps at every small problem, she’s an embarrassment to us women. She’s better off dead, don’t you think so?”

Sylvia’s tone was so casual as if she was talking about killing off a rat rather than a woman.

Sophia stood up, her eyes were thoroughly red. She reached out for the teapot on the table and held it high above her head.

No child could possibly endure someone else insulting their own mother!

Sylvia’s eyes turned cold. “If you have the slightest bit of a brain, you should know what to do now.”

Bang!

Just as Sophia was close to hurling the teapot at Sylvia, she turned aside and threw it on the floor just a few inches away from Sylvia.

The teapot broke into pieces at once and steam rose into the air.

Sophia pursed her lips and glared at Sylvia for a long moment, and finally forced herself to sit back on the sofa.

The woman who had indirectly caused her mother’s death, the woman who had jerked them around in circles, was just sitting right across her, yet there was nothing she could do!

“Can someone come and clean up the mess on the floor? I don’t want our guest to accidentally step on something and hurt herself,” Sylvia called out to her maids.

Someone came forward right away and cleaned up the broken shards.

Jax held Sylvia’s hands in his as he gently rubbed them. “Actually, you should be grateful to Sylvia. Your mother is a cowardly woman who doesn’t have her own opinion, whereas your father is so selfish he’s willing to betray his own blood. Frankly, Sylvia did you a favor by getting rid of the two of them.”

Sophia clenched her fists as she controlled the urge to throw everything on the table at the couple sitting across her.

They were the reason her mother was dead and her father was lying in the hospital in a vegetative state, yet they still had the audacity to ask her to be thankful?

How shameless of them!

“Young people nowadays do not know how to be grateful, especially those in their early twenties. You don’t have to say too much anymore, I’m sure she’ll learn to thank me in time,” Sylvia said earnestly as if treating Sophia as a childish little girl who was no wiser.

Sophia suppressed the rage surging through her chest and said coldly, “You don’t have to put on such an act in front of me, nobody is here to give you any awards. Just tell me what’s on the flash drive.”

She was worried that she might try to fight them if she stayed there a second longer!

Sylvia shook her head with a disapproving frown. “Sigh, young people nowadays are so impatient! You have barely been here for half an hour yet you keep talking about leaving already!”

Jax chimed in, “Charles and that Jones little brat are young people too but I don’t think their temper is this bad. Anyway, why don’t you just tell her since she’s so desperate to know?”

Sophia had thought that Leah was already a good enough actress who could invert wrong to right, but these two were on a whole other level!

If she was not the person concerned right then, she might actually believe these two that the youth nowadays were completely hopeless!

“The two projects are related to electrical appliances, I’m sure it’ll do White Industries some good. Bring it back to your brother and have him work on them.”

“As for the ‘evidence’ that points to Charles causing your mother’s death, that will be the excuse for you to leave Charles. I don’t have to explain to you in detail how to use it, do I?” Sylvia said with a smile.

Sophia was slightly taken aback before she finally came around.

Sylvia had already written the script for her. Charles ‘killed’ her mother, so she took revenge by stealing two of Harris Corporation’s projects for White Industries.

Sylvia was forcing her to frame a case against Charles, and while doing so, compelling her to frame herself as well. If she agreed to take this step, whatever chances she had left with Charles was truly gone!

On top of that, White Industries would suffer along with her!

“I can’t do this!” Sophia pushed the flash drive back to Sylvia. “If news breaks out that White Industries ‘snatched away’ Harris Corporation’s projects, what would happen to White Industries? I can’t take this risk!”
