Being Pursued By Ex-husband

Chapter 455 No Wonder

Sophia uttered those words in a calm and unruffled manner. However, the mention of the word "police" was sufficient to render the three women shuddering in fear.

The trio only made those comments out of jealousy that Sophia could take over Odyssey. Nonetheless, their remarks were baseless. If Sophia was determined to pursue that matter further and held them accountable, they would be guilty of spreading rumors and defamation.

That was not all. If they truly offended her, triggering Samuel and Charles to take action against them, their family businesses would likely be in jeopardy.

The market was already tough in the past two years, and even the allowances the three women received from their families had been reduced. If their families' companies were to face further troubles, the consequences would be dire and devastating.

"Ms. Yarrow, please have mercy and forgive us for spouting nonsense."

"We were just chatting casually. Please don't take our words to heart. We're very sorry, Ms. Yarrow!"

Gazing at Sophia, even the woman who had dared to argue with Megan earlier became afraid. "Ms. Yarrow, I'm a halfwit who has a habit of speaking without thinking. I didn't mean anything by it. Please don't hold it against me. I'm terribly sorry, Ms. Yarrow."

The three of them were genuinely frightened, as Sophia was now the most untouchable figure in the city.

Not only was she backed by her own considerable resources, but she was also supported by the Schild, Johnson, and Quail families. Not to mention, Sophia was also protected by the distant Dawson family. Under such circumstances, no one would dare to provoke her.

The trio was indeed accustomed to speaking without restraint. Unexpectedly, they encountered Sophia in person that day, prompting them to yield and apologize at once.

Sophia glanced at them nonchalantly, not wanting to bother pressing that matter further, so she merely uttered with a half-smile, "Gossiping isn't a good habit. Perhaps you ladies should think carefully before you speak in the future."

"You're absolutely right, Ms. Yarrow. We'll definitely correct our bad habit!"

Sophia smiled and disregarded them afterward. She turned to Megan. "Thank you."

Noticing Sophia wasn't paying them any attention anymore, the three women hurriedly scurried away.

Megan glanced at their leaving figures from behind, then looked at Sophia. "I didn't do much."

Sophia curled her lips into a faint smile. "I have some matters to attend to and need to return to the company. Let's have a meal together sometime."
