The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1475

It was just as Corinne expected—Sophia had been bidding against Lucas to artificially inflate the price!

The piece of land in Serenity Bay belonged to Sophia's father, so she pretended to be a patron to raise the price and bring in more profit for her family.

What she did was a big no-no in the world of auction.

"You can leave after putting the snacks there," ordered Sophia. She continued to sip her coffee without looking up as she thought it was a waitress who had come in.

It was not until she did not receive a response that she thought something was not right. Her eyes became as wide as saucers the moment she looked up.

"Corinne?! What are you doing here?"

Sophia's first reaction was shock and disgust, but those emotions were quickly replaced by guilt.

Fearing Corinne would bump into Benjamin and Jeremy, Sophia quickly looked behind Corinne to check if they were coming back.

"Miss Sophia, don't you think what you did was extremely despicable?" asked Corinne with a mocking smile.

Sophia frowned at being called despicable. "What did I do? Corinne, even if you're tired of being a spinster, it still doesn't give you the right to come barging in here to insult me."

Corinne stepped into the booth and closed the door softly.

"Your family owns that piece of land in Serenity Bay, no?" she asked.

Sophia's eyes darkened. "Why are you asking that? What does that have to do with you?"

"It has everything to do with me because I was the one who bid one billion dollars for it just now!"
