Get you in my arms
Chapter 68 A Chance To Be Alone

That night, Sam didn't sleep all night and went to MH early the next morning.

In the reception room, when Sophia saw him, she said coldly, "Mr. Sam, you must have brought the plan book here. I'll read it later."

"I am not coming for CBD." Sam stared at her without a blink. Her eyebrows, eyes and mouth looked like him and Mandy. She was indeed his daughter.

"Then what do you want, Mr. Sam?" Leaning against the chair, she picked up the black tea on the table and took a sip. She looked a little impatient because she didn't want to see him. "What How is your mother?" He rubbed his hands.

It was only a simple question, but she soon understood that he had probably asked Maggie? Now he came here to tell her the truth? It was not that easy. He had abandoned her for twenty-one years. She would never forgive him.

"It has nothing to do with you." She replied coldly.

Sam sipped and stirred the coffee in the cup with his hand, as if he were struggling in his mind. After a long time, he opened his mouth slowly, "I'm sorry, Sophia. I didn't take care of you these years and you suffered a lot..."

"Miss Sam, I don't understand what you mean. If you are not here for business, please go back. I have a lot of things to do." She interrupted him, as if she were wearing a mask and expressionless. "Sophia, I'm your father!" After struggling for a while, he finally made up his mind.

"Mr. Sam, as I told you before, my father was killed by lightning. I have nothing to do with you. Don't mistake relatives for the acting in CBD." Sophia laughed scornfully.

His voice trembled all of a sudden, and he continued, "Sophia, can you give me a chance? Let me make it up to you, okay?"

"Make it up? What can you make up for me? Money? The last thing I don't need now is money!" "I don't want to have anything to do with you. You'd better be like before. You have only one daughter, and I still say that I don't have a father. My father was killed by the lightning! If you don't have anything else, please go ahead. " Then she got up and went out directly.

Sitting in the office, Sophia looked out of the window at the sea surface, on which waves kept fluctuating. She was just about to calm down when her phone rang. It was from Maggie.

As soon as Sandra came back, Maggie told Sandra the news. When Sandra heard the news, both of them sensed danger and came here to make a demonstration.

At the Starbucks across MH building, Sophia ordered a cup of cappuccino and calmly looked at the two fierce faces.

"Well, what's the matter?"

"Let me tell you, I will never allow you to step into our house again." Warned Sandra fiercely.

"Do you think that such a shabby place deserves my attention? If I really want to come in, Sam will probably invite me warmly! " Sophia sneered. "Who do you think you are?" Maggie cursed.

"If it weren't for me, would you still be alive to talk to me here?" As soon as Maggie thought of the resort, she couldn't help but shiver.

"Don't be so complacent just because you have Lucas on your back. You are not even married to a wealthy family." Sandra spat on the ground.

"No matter how bad my life is, it's better than risking my life to pick up second-hand beggars!" Sophia replied in a mocking tone.

Anger was written all over Sandra's face. She used to think that she was capable and able to snatch things from others. However, she never expected that she would be described as "ugly" by Mandy and her daughter, which was a heavy blow to her!

"Don't blame me. It's all your mother's fault. She's not a capable woman and she's not charming enough to keep her eyes on her boyfriend."

"As the old saying goes, you two are similar in character." Taking a sip of coffee, Sophia said: "the past is an unchangeable fact. Some people don't just daydream all the time."

Hearing that, Maggie's face turned as red as a pig's blood. She said, "don't be complacent. Let's see who will laugh in the end." She gnashed her teeth in anger. She would never give up. Even if she married to Lucas, she could snatch him back like her mother did.

Knowing that Sophia inherited her mother's sharp tongue, she was not able to retort to her. So she waved her hand and said, "Well, I'm not here to talk nonsense with you today. I just want to tell you that Maggie is the only daughter of the Lin family. Don't meddle in others' affairs. Go to hell!"

"It's not up to you to say that. You a true bastard!" As soon as she finished speaking, Sophia raised her voice on purpose. Hearing that, many people nearby turned their heads and looked at her with disdain. Seeing that, Sandra really wanted to run away as quickly as possible. 'I'd better keep my nose clean. I have stinked once. No matter how clean you are, you will never change your past!

Maggie stood up and hurried away with her mother, arm in arm. Sophia was like her nemesis. Every time she was with her, she would get nothing. She didn't want to admit defeat. She had to win at all costs. In order to help her daughter defeat Sophia, Sandra decided to use all her experience and power.

Maggie continued to incite John to pester Sophia, so that she could have a chance to be alone with Lucas.

Friday night, in the HC Hotel, there was a charity auction in the century. Knowing that Lucas would be there, Sandra hurriedly informed her daughter to get ready. Maggie had spent a whole day dressing up. As John asked Sophia to buy a new pair of sunglasses with him, Lucas had to go alone.

When Maggie saw Lucas, she immediately went up to him and said, "Lucas, I didn't expect you to be here too."

"Maggie" Lucas replied faintly.

"I've heard that Lucas is keen on charity and public service. What a coincidence! I also like charity. Last month, I even sponsored a primary school with my family."

"I didn't expect you to be so loving." The corners of Lucas' mouth lifted into a smirk.

"Last year, I donated my father's diamond necklace to the auction. I hope it could help those who are sick," she said. "What is it?"

"I came on behalf of Sophia. She donated the ink stone of our family to the auction, saying that she would donate money to the children of the single parent families who were unfortunate because their families were disfigured." Lucas looked at her deeply. There was some irony in his words. She was embarrassed for a moment, but soon calmed down. "I don't think so. She is also a kind-hearted woman." She said jealously.

"You and Sophia are completely different. I can't imagine you are sisters." His tone was ambiguous. ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
