Upon learning that Sophia was just a worthless illegitimate daughter, the group of elders chipped in and started to verbally attack Sophia’s status, acting as though she was some kind of unseemly existence.
“She’s just Cooper’s illegitimate daughter! How arrogant!”
“It looks like Cooper is really at his wits’ end by sending his illegitimate daughter out to cause trouble! Throw this woman out! What a disgrace to our ancestors!”
“His illegitimate daughter, haha… How dare the traitor’s illegitimate daughter act so cocky!”
Everyone watched the scene in silence as the entire graveyard was filled with their nasty remarks.
In the end, even Alex’s lineage ran out of words to curse Sophia, and they could only repeat the same words over and over again.
Sophia had come all the way here via helicopter; even though it was very cool to drop down from the sky, it almost froze her into a popsicle. She sat down calmly on a portable chair that Sean had brought over while she listened to Alex and the others’ insults. She drank some hot coffee to warm herself up, building enough strength to deliver her big comeback.
Their ugly, obscene words even enraged Sean so much that he was about to command his men to tear their mouths, but Sophia quickly stopped him. “It’s fine, just let them continue. Film this properly; I’ll soon invest and build a Mitchell Family museum, and today’s historic occasion must be recorded as part of the family’s history. We will place it in the museum for future descendants to watch.”
Alex and his men were too busy cursing Sophia, not noticing that someone had been recording them the entire time. At that moment, they finally realized their ugly nature had been exposed as Sandra quickly yelled, “Stop filming right now! No filming!”
Unfortunately, she couldn’t even get close to Sophia, let alone stop the people around her from filming.
All family meetings had to be filmed for their archives, so today’s occasion was not an exception.
Sophia stood high above as she elegantly held a cup of hot coffee and sipped on it slowly. Dressed exquisitely, Sophia had perfectly inherited her strong and stern features from Cooper; it even seemed like a second Cooper had appeared.
An illegitimate daughter? She is actually Cooper’s beloved illegitimate daughter!
Nevertheless, there was no law stating that an illegitimate daughter was inferior to a legitimate daughter. Moreover, Sophia was already on the newly revised Mitchell Family genealogy which clearly stated that she was Cooper’s daughter and Woody’s grandchild.
A real leader would not be affected by a few vicious words.
Alex and Sandra could only helplessly grasp the fact that she was an illegitimate daughter and repeatedly insulted her with their foul obscenities; there was a clear difference in power between both sides.
Sophia had almost lost her senses when she saw them digging Woody’s grave earlier, but her thoughts began to calm down as the warmth from the hot coffee spread throughout her body.
Meanwhile, Sandra was determined to dig up Woody’s grave that day; she had to prove her authority to the Mitchell Family!
Sandra proclaimed righteously and said, “Sophia, today’s matter concerns only the Mitchell Family members. Right now, you’re stepping on a mountain hosting the Mitchell Family’s ancestral graves. Whether the ancestral graves are to be dug or not is entirely up to the members of the Mitchell Family! Although you claim to be the rightful members of the Mitchell Family, our family is still the only one recognized by the aristocrats of Bayside City. This is still the Mitchell Family’s ancestral graves mountain, so we have the right to handle things as we see fit!”
