Chapter 1753

Struggling to regain her balance, Sophia managed to steady herself against the hallway’s shoe rack. She let out a sigh of relief and looked down to see the broken pieces of a cell phone under her feet.

Scattered around her were remnants of what used to be her father’s phone.

What happened here?

Why did her father smash his phone? Sophia felt a surge of unease well up in her. Furrowing her brow, she glanced at the living room, where she caught sight of Thaddeus sitting on the couch with a brooding expression on his face as he puffed on a cigar.

Sophia approached him. “Dad, what’s wrong? Why did you smash your phone?”

Thaddeus cast a cold glance at his daughter. “Why are you calling me ‘Dad’ now? Didn’t you say you didn’t need me anymore? Then don’t bother about me!”

Sophia knew that her father was just venting his anger. She sighed and sat down next to him. “Dad, there’s no bad blood between us. I just didn’t want you interfering in my relationship with Marcus. It doesn’t mean I want to sever our father-daughter bond.”

Thaddeus took a long drag of his cigar and blew out a thick cloud of smoke with a grunt.
