“Of course!” Sonia nodded with a smile before looking at Tina. “Thank you, Miss Gray. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have so many benefits.”

Silently, Tina chewed on her bottom lip.

Slinging an arm around Tina’s waist, Toby said, “Let’s go.”

“Safe travels, President Fuller and Miss Gray! I’ll see you in Seafield!” Sonia waved them off with a grin.

Gloomily, they left.

After shutting the door behind them, Charles came back quickly. “That was amazing, baby. You cheated him out of Ocean’s Heart, and now you’ve cheated him out of a whole port and a plot of land. They looked so upset when they left. I was tickled to death!”

Picking up a glass of water by her bed, Sonia took a sip using a straw before answering, “Well, it’d be a waste if I didn’t take the chance when they were offering it to me.”

“That’s true.” After a chuckle, he looked at her seriously. “But are we really dropping this matter?”

“Yes.” She nodded. “We could send Tina to prison but there’s no need for that, and Toby’s right—actually doing that would exacerbate the situation between the Gray Family and Paradigm Co. Out of desperation, the Gray Family would try to crush Paradigm Co.”

Currently, Paradigm Co. was still too small to be the Gray Family’s opponent.

Thus, she absolutely could not go head-to-head with them.

Seeing the logic in that, he fiddled with his phone absent-mindedly before saying, “What a pity! But it’s a good thing that we at least got a lot out of it. Especially that plot of land. Titus would no doubt hit the ceiling if he found out about it.”

At his description, she couldn’t help laughing. “I heard from the grapevine a long time ago that he intends to build villas in Seafield because he wants to create the first villa district there. Now that we’ve taken his villa district away, he will no doubt feel the loss.”

Gleefully, Charles gloated with his arms spread wide open, “Serves him right for having a daughter who harms her own father and her own fiancé!”

Harms her own father and her own fiancé?

If Sonia thought about it, it was indeed true. Previously, Tina’s attempt to slander her ended up costing Titus his carefully prepared banquet to celebrate her recovery and Toby his carefully selected Ocean’s Heart necklace.

Now, Tina caused Sonia to fall and it cost Toby a trade port and Titus a plot of land. With all the losses they were suffering, how could Tina’s actions be described other than actively harming her father and her fiancé?

At the thought, Sonia tutted, suddenly feeling pity for Titus and Toby.

“By the way, baby—” Charles leaned in close as he murmured, “—what do you intend to do with that plot of land?”
