Chapter 150 Buying Time

Sophia was chilling in her bed, enjoying some downtime, when her phone started blowing up.

Annoyed, she finally answered, "Seriously, can't you give it a rest? What do you want?"

"Miss Brown, you can't just boss us around and then act like this!" The voice on the other end was all too familiar, and Sophia rolled her eyes. "You said we could handle the situation, and if we got caught, you'd take the blame. Is that still the deal?"

Sophia could tell they wanted her to cover for them. She was curious about their plan for Veda. Were they worried about making a scene?

"Actually, it's nothing... This lady is pretty hot, so we were thinking..." they started.

"No way!" Sophia cut them off. "You can scare her, but you can't hurt her!"

Now the other end was pissed. Earlier, she had said she wanted to kill the girl. Why the sudden change of heart? The guys had been pumped all day, and now what?

Sophia snapped, "You bunch of horny idiots! Do you even know who Veda is? If you hurt her, you'll have to kill her. But whether you kill her or not, you'll leave evidence. Once her family reports it, have you thought about the consequences? They'll catch you, and you'll end up in jail, then you'll think about ratting me out!"

Sophia's mood darkened. She had only wanted to scare Veda, to show her that the world wasn't just about the Smith family's power. If she threw some money around, even the Smith heiress could be brought down a peg.
