Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

Chapter 528

“Could you tell I was delibemtely provoking him?”

“Absolutely.”

Tricia knew exactly what kind of person Sophie was. She would never intentionally say things to provoke someone without reason. The words Sophie had just spoken seemed designed to force Ricardo to lose his temper, leaving him outwardly composed but likely seething on the inside.
