The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 426 Mother-Daughter Ruse

Sophia swallowed her anger and put on a flirty act for Dean again.

"Well, you pushed me too hard."

Taking advantage of the moment, Sophia got up and shamelessly moved closer to Dean. She knew the Brown family was unreliable now. Dean was her last hope, her stepping stone. She had to cling to him to strike back at the Smith family and Emily, to get revenge for herself and Evelyn.

"If you were this forceful in bed, imagine how many women would be all over you..." Sophia's voice dripped with seduction.

Dean wasn't having it. He was used to a carefree life, but he wasn't interested in casual flings, especially with someone like Sophia, who was clearly trying to manipulate him. "Get lost."

He shoved her away again, not as hard this time, but his words were still cutting. As he turned to head back to the private room, he pointed a finger at her nose and spoke firmly.

"Don't think I don't see through your little games. We can do business, but that's it. Nothing more is ever gonna happen!"

Sophia's face twisted into an awkward smile. "What do you mean by that? I'm not just anyone, you know!"

Dean scoffed at her act and didn't bother to respond. He knew the Brown sisters weren't simple. If Sophia was this scheming, her half-sister had to be even more cunning.
