Chapter 139: The Owner of the Car

On that floor of the office, a middle–aged man who appeared gentle and elegant asked with a smile.

Derick looked at the newcomer, smiling as he introduced them to Sophia:

“Sophia, this was your aunt’s husband, Laurent.”

Sophia raised her eyebrows, not expecting the first person she would meet to be Laurent.

She extended her hand gently and delicately: “Hello, uncle.”

Laurent gently grasped her hand and then let go, looking at Sophia as if she were a woman of privilege and comfort.

“Where was Sophia from and who else was in her family?”

Derick’s eyes darkened.

Sophia, tilting her head with a grin, spoke:

“I lived in Fineland with my parents since I was little, where they ran a small business. Didn’t Derick tell you?”

Derick laughed as he loosely wrapped his arm around her waist:

“I didn’t value these things, why would I introduce them everywhere? Besides, my aunt already knew, as for my uncle–in–law…”

After all, he was just my uncle by marriage.

Laurent gave an awkward laugh, then turned and walked away.

Chapter 139 The Owner of the Car

Derick, with his arm around Sophia, pushed the door and entered the office.

Sophia glanced around, it was a very formal American style, simple and practical, the area was large, and the lighting was excellent.

Derick walked over to the coffee machine and began making coffee, his voice warm and clear:

“Add milk, right?”

“Correct.”

Sophia responded.

Very quickly.

Derick had prepared it and brought it to her.

“You sit by yourself for a while, when the time comes, I will take you.”

Sophia nodded, “I know, you do your thing.”

Derick gave an apologetic smile, then his assistant Hayden came in.

He nodded at Sophia, then turned to look at Derick:

“Mr. Woodward, these are the developments in the Zennland project. Since the news of your incident came out, many groups have attempted to sabotage the project, with the Clement Group’s offensive being the most obvious.”

Sophia couldn’t help but look over.

Derick was solemnly flipping through the documents in his hand.

It seemed not surprising.
