Sophia was amused by his remark. "Do you think we are still like before?"
"We can get along like before, as long as I let Bonnie stay in my mom's house."
Although weak, Sophia hit Drake's forehead. "Stop dreaming! We both need to work during the
daytime, so Bonnie can stay at Mom's house. But she must return at night. We're her parents and must
keep her company."
"OK. OK."
Drake didn't mind making love secretly to Sophia since it was rather exciting.
However, he still wanted to have another child.
According to Mia's latest update, Molly had been rejected by several companies run by the Riley, the
Price, and the Duncan families, but she also received contracts from other companies of similar levels
in Sealand.
Sophia curled her lips into a smile. "She's quite impressive."
"However, according to my investigation, those companies didn't have connections with the Stein
family. They couldn't have cooperated with the Stein family for someone's sake."
"You mean there's something fishy behind it, right?"
"Exactly, but I'm not sure what it is now."
"It's alright, Mia. Even though Molly has signed many contracts, I don't think she can manage a
company well."
Sophia's words made sense.
"However, you must continue to keep an eye on her."
"Yes, Ms. Lawson. I will."
Others in Sealand were also surprised to hear Molly had suddenly gained so many contracts. They had
thought Molly would end up becoming the company president who had run the company for the
shortest time in history. Much to their surprise, Molly managed to get so many contracts in a few days.
Arlo secretly called Sophia, "Ms. Lawson, I investigated her. Someone is helping her, but I haven't
found who it is."
"If the person purposely wants to help her, he or she won't be exposed easily," Sophia remarked.
"That person is doing things in the dark, while what we've done is exposed to him or her. None of us
knows his or her purpose yet. I'm afraid..."
With a smile, Sophia answered, "Mr. Stein, you've been doing business for many years. I'm sure you've
seen many types of people. Are you fearful just because the other party is in the dark and we know
nothing about him or her?"
After learning his niece had obtained so many contracts, Arlo felt slightly disappointed. He had thought
Molly's career would end, but surprisingly, she turned the tables.
But it made sense. Molly was trained by the Old Stein, so she should have some tricks up her sleeves.
"I agree with you, Ms. Lawson. If I receive any news, I'll keep you updated."
"OK."
Sophia had worked in business world for a few years, but since childhood, she had learned many
things of the business world from her family. Moreover, she started her companies in the past few
years, so she wouldn't be afraid no matter what the challenge she faced.
She believed there were two paths in business -- success or failure.
She didn't think she would fail.
Half a month later, Jessica showed up in front of Drake again. Earlier, she had been in a mess, so she
couldn't approach Drake. Finally, she thought she had a chance.
However, as soon as Drake saw her, he frowned. "Who let you enter here? Get out!"
With a confident smile, Jessica said, "Mr. Riley, please be patient. I'm not here to bother you. I
represent Cannon Group to negotiate project cooperation with you."
Cannon Group was a long-term partner of the Riley Group. Drake knew the representative well.
Therefore, he doubted Jessica.
Jessica passed a file to him. "You can check this out to see if I'm lying."
Drake took it over and browsed it quickly. There was a unique mark on the contract between the Riley
Group and Cannon Group to avoid their competitors impersonating them.
After all, a lot of people used whatever methods to get what they needed.
"I'm working for Cannon Group now. Mr. Riley, if you don't believe it, you can call them to confirm."
Drake pulled out his phone and called the president of Cannon Group, who he knew well.
"This is Drake. Is there an employee named Jessica Greenspan in your company? Well. OK. I got it."
Standing there, Jessica looked self-confident.
Drake didn't expect her to join Cannon Group and managed to become the representative of the
project.
"There are only project issues between us," Drake warned her.
He accepted it for Cannon Group's sake.
Jessica giggled, "Mr. Riley, what else do you wish to happen between us?"
Drake gave off the aura of power immediately, which intimidated Jessica.
Jessica could tell she had annoyed him, so she immediately said, "I was just kidding, Mr. Riley. I know I
don't deserve you. Since the incident last time, I've understood my identity and status. From now on, I
won't bother you, Mr. Riley."
Drake didn't believe her, realizing she had retreated in order to advance.
"I'll sign this contract. Ask your boss to send another representative to me next time."
Jessica calmly stared at him. "Mr. Riley, are you so unconfident in yourself? As I said, I won't bother
you again. Why do you still do so? Are you afraid of falling in love with me?"
Drake quickly signed the contract and smashed it to her. "Get out!"
Jessica's expression changed slightly. She picked up the contract, checked his signature, and
chuckled, "I didn't expect you to be so rude, Mr. Riley. I can tell your emotions have fluctuated because
of me..."
Before she finished her statement, Drake pressed the button on his telephone and called the security
department. "Send a few guards to my office. Throw the woman out."
The security guards arrived shortly, dragging Jessica out. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Jessica looked annoyed, almost letting out shrieks of indignation. However, she didn't.
'Shit! Drake! How dare you treat me this way! I'll tame you sooner or later!' she thought angrily.
Later, Drake called the president of Cannon Group. "Listen, if you send this woman to my company
again, our cooperation will end."
Before he hung up the phone, the president of Cannon Group explained, "Please calm down, Drake.
Sorry, but I couldn't do anything. I used to owe someone a favor, and that person knows Jessica and
asked me to help her. I was..."
"I don't care whose favor you owe. Anyway, I don't want to see that woman again." Drake wanted to get
involved with any women besides Sophia.
"All right. All right. I got it."
The president of Cannon Group knew Drake well. Besides, no one could afford to offend a man like
Drake.
After ending the call, Drake frowned as he sensed something wrong. Jessica joined Cannon Group,
and Molly managed to gain many contracts. He wondered whether those were just coincidences or
manipulated by someone.
