Chapter 528

"Could you tell I was deliberately 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.

"So, you noticed I was trying to rile him up, yet he, being in the thick of it, couldn't see it." A slight smile played on Sophie's lips as she continued, "Ricardo wants to take Julian down a peg. Since he can't make a deal with me, he'll have to look elsewhere. We need to give him a strong push to make him desperate."

Tricia frowned, "Are you planning a trap?"

"Let's have our people knock on his door tomorrow. For someone as proud as Ricardo, he won't be able to bear such an insult. He'll quickly look to align with those who share his goals against us."

"Isn't he worried about the consequences?"

"I've already outlined the consequences to him. If Ricardo truly cared about them, he wouldn't ignore Bloomsbury. Right now, his entire focus is on expanding the Devonport territory and taking Julian down. He can't afford to care about much else."

Perhaps the Cloude family's wealth made Ricardo overly confident. He believed that even a loss-making deal wouldn't significantly harm the Cloude estate.
