Sophia sighed in disbelief. Her head movements quickened. “Please don’t fire me, Dad. I myself built my company to this. It’s not fair if you hand it over to someone else.”

Victor shook his head. “What people count on is current performance, not the past. Nobody cares about how much you struggled to build it. All they see is how you brought your own company down.”

Sophia’s tears began to well up. Her face was filled with despair. ” Please give me a chance, Dad. I can restore my good name and that of my company. I guarantee you, within one month, I can fix everything.”

She tried to break through, but the officer restrained her. “Sorry, Miss Moore. Your father won’t let you out!”

“Dad?”

Victor was completely unfazed. Even though Sophia’s tears shed, his expression remained frozen. “Be kind, Sophia. Don’t embarrass your family.”

A second later, he glanced at the officer. “Perform your duties.”

“Yes, Sir.” With a light push, the uniformed man pushed Sophia
