NovelEnglishDid Young Master Weiss turn into someone else? the bodyguards wondered.
Meanwhile, when Sophia returned to the Goodwin Residence, she immediately hugged her mother. In just two days, Emma's hair had turned gray from worry. When she saw her daughter again, she sobbed and told her about everything that had happened during the past two days.
“Mom, don’t worry. Dad will be hsoon.” “How could that be? Your dad was accused of commercial fraud this time, so it wouldn't be that simple.” “Mom, believe me. | can really help Dad chome,” Sophia promised.
As expected, ten or so minutes later, there was a sound of the door opening, and Drake walked in unscathed.

You don’t need to marry him anymore. The company is gone anyway, so there’s no need for that.” However, he couldn't figure out who had so much power to do this to him on such a huge and cruel scale.
“Sigh. Until now, | still don’t know who's been targeting me. | don’t remember offending anyone either!” He was feeling depressed.
Just then, Sophia spoke up softly from beside him. “Dad, | know who it is.” “What? You do? Who is it?” He hurriedly looked at his daughter.
Emma was shocked as well and turned her gaze toward Sophia.
Sophia had to explain everything from start to finish. At the end of her explanation, she reiterated, “I really didn’t steal it. That man’s necklace got caught in my hair, and it’s the necklace’s fault for being so fragile that it broke so easily.” She looked at her parents guiltily, thinking that her parents didn’t understand what she was talking about.
However, Emma suddenly said to Drake, “I told you that man isn’t an easy opponent, but you didn't believe me.. Look what he’s done now; he made us bankrupt overnight.” “I haven't heard of anyone called Weiss who is this powerful before!” Drake couldn't believe that this young man had done all of this and even managed to destroy his company overnight either.
“Dad, I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I'll definitely take responsibility for this.” Sophia would never get her parents involved.
“Silly girl, now that the necklace is gone, where are you going to find it? How are you going to take responsibility? It's obvious that the necklace is important to him, and now he’s going to be even angrier.” “Dad, Mom, don't say it’s gone yet. | can still look for it.” Sophia had already called her friend and asked her to look for it in the hotel.
Sophia then hoisted her suitcase upstairs, intending to look through it. She had just carried the suitcase to the stairs when her cat suddenly pounced over, frightening her so much that her hands jolted, and the suitcase rolled down from the second floor.
With a few thumps, the zipper flew open, causing all of her clothes and belongings to scatter across the ground, one of which rolled into the corner of the storage box under the stairs where even the dim light couldn't hide its extraordinary shine. It just so happened to be the necklace.

After returning upstairs, she tidied her belongings and looked for the necklace. Sure enough, it wasn't there. She was extremely worried. If she didn’t find it soon, she would be doomed.
Just then, her phone rang. She took a glance at the unknown number and answered the call. “Hello? Who is this?” “Your dad is out. Ten minutes later, I'll cover to retrieve my things. A cold male voice spoke to her from the other end.
“Um, you shouldnt cover. The necklace isn’t with me. | left it overseas.” Sophia could only lie to him in order to hold him back..
“Say what?! As expected, his voice turned angry.
“I promise you that I'll definitely bring it back. Can you givestime?” She attempted to bargain.
“Sophia Goodwin, do you have a death wish?” The man on the other end of the phone finally lost his patience and burst out in fury.
