Jeffrey added, “Think about it. You’re married to Javier Beckett, you must be filthy rich. 200 million

“According to my information, you’ve accumulated at least 500 million dollars in your offshore account
in
Randerland, a stash from years of corruption in Beckett Group’s projects.”
Sophia was reminded of the wealth she had painstakingly amassed over the years through abuse of
power and bribery.
Her secret fortune could lead to a world of trouble if Jasper and Alyssa were to discover it. She might
even have to serve a sentence unless Javier helped her. However, she didn’t trust Javier anymore,
“Madam, you’re not even 50 years old yet. You’re sitting on a fortune. Don’t you want to see your two
daughters get married someday? Have you ever dreamed of meeting your grandchildren?
“You’re a pampered woman. I doubt you would last a day in a harsh environment in prison.”
Jeffrey was clearly threatening her. Sophia gritted her teeth and came to a difficult decision

“I need to see the money by tomorrow evening. Madam, we’re partners. Let’s not end up in a lose lose
situation.”
Rosie walked past Sophia’s bedroom with Jasper’s new tailored suit in her hand. She heard the sounds
of
things crashing behind the closed door.
Frowning, she silently cursed, “What’s that crazy bitch up to again? Even if she marries the richest man
in
the world, she would still act the same!”
At that moment, Rosie’s phone started ringing with a call from Jasper. Hiding in a corner, she
answered,
Hello? Mr. Beckett, will you be home today?”
“Mrs. Rosie, are Sophia and Betty at Seaview Manor?” Jasper asked patiently.
“Yes, they are. I overheard them fighting as I passed their room. I’m sure they’ve wrecked everything in

Then, she added with concern, “Did something happen? You have been gone for days.”
After some thinking, Jasper decided not to tell Mrs. Rosie about Nina’s death for now, fearing that Mrs.
Rosie would fall into shock. He requested, “Mrs. Rosie, I need your assistance. Stay in the manor for a
few days, closely monitor Sophia’s movements, and let me know if she leaves. Don’t take any other
action.
“Got it, Mr. Beckett.”
“Remember, only observe. She’s evil and might harm you if provoked,” he cautioned in a hushed tone.

Just as he was about to hang up, Sophia emerged from the room. Dressed in black, which was unlike
her
usual gaudy fashion, she sneaked out of the manor in the dead of the night. She resembled someone
attending a funeral.
Mrs. Rosie jogged along, careful not to be spotted, and watched Sophia from a window. Sophia got into
