Hearing Sofia’s words, there was already a storm in Richard's eyes. Even though Sofia wasn't afraid of him, the
danger in his eyes still took her by surprise, and she instinctively swallowed hard. “I'm just stating the facts,” she
added.
The file had been lost for several days. Sofia figured anything that could be leaked probably already was, so
there was little point in worrying about getting it back.
Richard laughed dryly, “That's how it is, but...” He paused as he spoke.
Richard recalled overhearing a conversation on the cruise with Dan talking to someone else. He thought,
‘Planning to steal from me, huh? | should give him a lesson.
Richard lifted his eyelids and gave Sofia a mischievous smile. “Want to marry me? Okay, bring your Driver's
License to the courthouse tomorrow and wait for me.”
Sofia was shocked and thought, “The sudden change caughtoff guard. He was arrogant so intensely, but
now... Sofia glanced at Richard.
Sofia thought, ‘His complexion looks perfectly normal and doesn’t seem to be feverish or out of it. “What do you

Richard’s smile beceven more mischievous. “Weren't you trying to trapwith marriage? Go ahead.”
Richard emphasized the words “trap me” heavily.
Sofia, who had been so aggressive a moment ago, had a shiver. She thought, ‘Had he gone crazy or something?
After all, he was hysterical just a moment ago, and now he’s so calm?‘ Sofia’s gut feeling told her something was
strange.
Richard stepped forward and grabbed Sofia’s chin. “What? Regretting it now?”
“No, it's just that this transformation...” It wasn’t about regretting anything. It was just that Richard's sudden
change left Sofia a bit bewildered.
Hearing her response, Richard shoved her away. “Good, it's the best thing.” He then patted Sofia’s cheek.
“Remember, be there by ten tomorrow morning or else...” He paused, a trace of coldness creeping into his
wicked smile.
Even without him finishing his sentence, Sofia could guess what Richard meant. It was obvious he was
determined to cause a big scene.
Richard left. Now alone, Sofia couldn't stop replaying his sudden change in attitude in her mind. She thought,
‘How could Richard change so drastically?’
Stephanie was headed to find Sebastian, but Richard caught up with her quickly.
Stephanie was walking with Jesse. When they saw Richard, Jesse instinctively shielded Stephanie behind him.
“Mr. Casalini,” Jesse greeted respectfully.
Richard chuckled, “This is the Giovanni residence. What could | possibly do to her that you all have to be so
protective?”
Stephanie was free at the Giovanni residence. No one dared do anything to her here. Even if Richard was upset
with her because of Sebastian, he wouldn't dare make a move here.
Jesse respectfully bowed his head slightly and said nothing more.

Richard looked at Stephanie. “Stephanie, | really underestimated you before.” He thought, ‘No wonder for all
those years whenever anyone suggested marriage, she didn’t agree. It seems her heart was already set on
Sebastian.”

The way things were heading carlier, Stephanie thought a fight would break out. That was why she was in such a
hurry to find Sebastian. Her phone had died carlier, and Jesse's phone was left in the medical room.
So Stephanie had to find Sebastian for help quickly. Before she could find him, Richard caught up with her. She
thought, “That intense, almost life-or-death tension just evaporated, which is surprising.
Footsteps cfrom behind. Stephanie turned to see Sofia looking upset. Stephanie asked, “Sofia, did Richard
bother again?”
Sofia waved her hand. “Don’t worry, he didn’t hitthis time.”

Stephanie thought, “The way Sofia said this, especially with that tone, sounded odd. It might make someone
think Richard was being abusive to Sofia.
