Chapter 309

Lottie and Richard went straight to the study.

Stephanie helped Sofia get dressed, while Sofia grumbled, “That shameless Richard, why does he have so much time on his hands? He actually recorded it? Who would think to record in that situation?”

Stephanie said, “But Richard did record it.”

Sofia seethed, “That jerk.”

Stephanie said, “You said it yourself, he’s shameless. Who knows what he wants with that recording?”

Sofia’s face darkened again. She questioned Richard’s goal.

Stephanie asked, “Trying to scam Sebastian again?”

As soon as Sofia heard this, she clapped her hands and said, “Exactly, he was talking with Sebastian then, so he must want to record Sebastian.” She thought of it immediately. When she went over, it was just Richard and Sebastian in the study. Sebastian was Richard’s target.

Hearing her say that, Stephanie paused. Then she picked up the phone. “I have to call Sebastian.” Recording a conversation with Sebastian was something no ordinary person would do.

The call went through. Sebastian’s voice quickly answered on the other end, “Are the wedding dresses here?”

Stephanie replied, “No. They haven’t arrived yet.”

Sebastian chuckled. “Oh, missing me already? I just left half an hour ago.”

His voice was gentle and affectionate. Stephanie’s cheeks turned red, and she instinctively glanced at Sofia next to her.

Sofia, feeling like a third wheel, looked at her with dissatisfaction.

Stephanie quickly turned around, covering the phone. “No, it’s not like that.”

Sebastian asked, “Oh? Then what do you want to say?”

“It’s just that Richard came by to ask Sofia to get married and even played a recording.” Stephanie quickly got to the point. If they continued flirting, Sofia might just start crying.

Though Sofia always acted like she didn’t care about Dan, Stephanie remembered how Sofia looked when she returned: her hair was messed up, and her clothes were wet. Obviously, Sofia had been outside for quite a while.

Every strong person had a soft spot. Sofia did care about Dan since she had feelings for him for a long time.

Sebastian frowned, “What recording?”

“It was when Richard said Sofia wouldn’t agree to marry him, and then suddenly Sofia’s voice popped up, saying she would.

“We’re now wondering what exactly was recorded when Richard talked to you. Only you know what it was, and he’s probably trying to blackmail you.” Stephanie summed up all the main points.

When Sebastian heard that Richard recorded him, his eyes, behind those gold–rimmed glasses, flashed with a cold gleam in a blink. “Hmm, don’t worry, he wouldn’t dare.”

If Richard dared to blackmail him, that meant Richard was feeling uneasy in Fiorenza. When he was in Paginara, he always wanted to go back to Fiorenza.
