Chapter 48

" No, no, no. The Windsor family is dragging you down. What does it have to do with me? When you sold the company, did you ask for my opinion?" Sophia yawned.

This attitude of not denying made Jones completely believe that she was the one who was obstructing everything.

His voice turned cold, "Do you think that I can do nothing if you ruin the Windsor family's acquisition?"

Sophia opened her eyes , her eyelashes were as thick as a small fan, and they were sharp enough to push away the mist.

She waited for his next words. Jones really came to disgust him. "If the Windsor family doesn't pay, someone else will! It's just that the price is lower and there are more assets to sell."

Sophia clenched her phone and gritted her teeth, "Do you still have a conscience? Those are all from my Montgomery family assets!"

"Reflect on yourself. This is all your fault! I have never treated you unfairly, but you always target your sister..."

Sophia was too lazy to talk to him, so she hung up the phone and threw it on the bed with a bang.

Jones is always partial when it comes to Chloe .

When she was little, she was said to be spoiled, but Chloe had an unhappy childhood, so she should give in to her. When she grew up, she was said to be not as sensible as Chloe , so she should put Chloe first.

The family took it for granted and never reflected that everything belonged to the Montgomery family and Jones was just a robber.

A big hand reached out from her side, held her waist, and gently pulled her into his arms.

The man's voice beside my ear was hoarse and lazy, "What's wrong?"

Sophia was not a voice control, but she was also confused by the seductive voice and turned her head to look at the handsome face. The morning light shone through the curtains and sprinkled on the man's angular face. There was a faint stubble on his chin, which was not sloppy, but sexy.

"Did it wake you up?"

Her whole body was stiff, and her low voice was restrained and soft.

The man rested his chin on the top of her head, hummed softly, and said nothing more.

Sophia didn't dare move.

Although they shared the same bed these days, they were just ordinary bedmates who didn't get into bed frequently. Even their waking times were staggered , so they rarely bumped into each other. When they bumped into each other occasionally, it was just after they woke up, and she hurried into the bathroom to wash up to hide her embarrassment.

Her cell phone vibrated , and she quietly reached out, took it and took a look.

It's Ava 's. [Thanks to the intervention of the Windsor family, I helped you get the lowest price! There is still some money left in the original budget. Jones has several properties for sale. Do you want them?]

Sophia didn't even think about it, "Yes! How much money do you need? I'll transfer it to you later!"

Those were all Jones's private properties, and she was worried about how to start.

The Montgomery family had almost been defeated in his hands, and with the interference of the Windsor family, they suffered a huge loss.

He just wanted to annoy Sophia, and he couldn't really continue to sell at a low price. The best way was to sell the real estate.

Ava sent an OK expression, [No hurry, I have money, you take care of your side first. ]

After putting down her phone, Sophia's mood suddenly brightened.

She turned quietly and looked at the elegant and noble face beside her, with a pair of beautiful eyes sparkling. This damn handsome man was actually damn smart.

This time, thanks to his help, not only did we achieve our goal, but we also got an unexpected surprise.

As she watched, she suddenly stretched her neck and gently kissed the corner of his lips. Unlike the previous perfunctory and comforting kiss, this time she couldn't help herself and there was a bit of inexplicable admiration.

As soon as the kiss fell, she quickly withdrew . Because of nervousness, her toes were curled up , her little hands climbed onto his shoulders, her cheeks flushed, and even her ears turned red.

She then got up quietly and prepared to slip away, but the big hand on her waist exerted a little force and easily pulled her back.

The next second, a tall figure loomed over him, and the man's deep voice was suppressed to the extreme, "You ran away after the kiss?"

Sophia's eyes widened, her beautiful pupils full of surprise, "You're not asleep?"

"I'm a normal man. How can I sleep when my wife is kissing and hugging me?"

"..."

Sophia pursed her lips and tried to retort.

Then the next second, she felt the man leaning over and pressing down, his hot chest against her, making it impossible for her to think normally.

Michael's thin lips attacked hers, kissing her gently and lightly.

He originally wanted to proceed step by step, but when he met those watery eyes so close to him, which were shining with innocence and purity, he couldn't help but abuse them, so he kissed her heavily.

Sophia's whole body went limp, her heart was beating like a drum, and she was led by him to wrap her little hands around her neck.

After a long time, the man got up and went into the bathroom.

Sophia sat on the bed, her eyes were bright and clear, her lips were red, her pajamas were hanging crookedly on her shoulders, and her little face was flushed.

The sound of water running in the bathroom made Sophia feel embarrassed and confused. Aren't they a couple?

Why can't I continue?

...

Sophia thought about it for a whole day but couldn't figure it out, so she was distracted frequently at work.

"Miss?"

A doubtful voice pulled her back to her thoughts, "What's wrong?"

Sophia looked up at Lucas and said, "I think she is qualified for the third female role, but what you said makes sense. We have to convince everyone, so let's give it a try."

"I'll take her to the audition this afternoon?" Sophia takes this drama very seriously, so Lucas is also very concerned about it.

Sophia shook her head, "No, you have things to do, I'll take her."

Lucas was helpless, "Miss, I'm just a worker."

During this period, Sophia has been a hands-off manager.

Montgomery Entertainment is in a state of chaos right now. Especially at times like this, it needs a backbone. She really doesn't treat him as an outsider . 

"I'll give you a raise." Sophia said calmly.

Lucas explained, "It's not about salary. You don't care about anything. Aren't you afraid that I might have some bad ideas?"

Sophia raised her eyebrows slightly, "Would you?"

Lucas , "..."

Without a doubt, no.

Lucas is considered an elder in the Montgomery family and the grandson of his grandfather's assistant.

As soon as she returned home, Grandpa Yun contacted her and said that he would send someone to help . In her heart, this old man was as close to her as her grandfather. He watched her grow up and gave her a lot of warmth during her childhood when she was excluded by Chloe .

" Your grandfather is the person grandpa trusts the most. You are like my own younger brother. I trust you." She stood up and patted his shoulder.

Lucas corrected, "I'm older than you, so I should be your older brother."

Sophia smiled calmly, "It's all the same, don't worry about the details."

Lucas , "..."
