Although Justine did not understand the technicalities behind drones, the Flying Real Group had an expert leading them in the
field. All she had to do was come up with the money, while the other person heused on researching drones
Over the past few years, the Flying Seal Coup had managed to climb on the ranks and had become a formidable company within
Clementon.
However
You and both know that he refuses to see me after I decided to marry Larcas. He has a say in the company, and there’s a
chance that he won’t agree to me joining in.”
Sebastian Hill’s father, ta aham Hill, had also written a recommendation letter for her back then.
The father and son this had high hopes for her and cared deeply about her. They were both confident that she would make a
name for herself and even bring honor to their country.
Justine andled as she watched her head. “You and I both know that Sebastian’s just stubborn. I’ll set up a meeting for the two of
you to talk things out. Actually, he misses you too.”
Evelyn smiled barterly.
Derek had been greedy to climb the ranks. If he had not schemed against her, tricking her into sleeping with Lucas and
threatening her to give up on her dreams, perhaps she would have been able to live a brilliant and glorious life.
Suckily, her phone tang
Seeing that it was Sophia calling, Evelyn frowned and declined the call. She was about to divorce Lucas, so there was no need
for her to indulge in Sophia’s spoiled behaviour.
However, Sophia was relentless as she continued to call repeatedly. Her actions were the epitome of being spoiled and entitled.
After the fifth call, Evelyn put sed her lips in annoyance and answered the call.
Scyphia immediately shrieked, “You’re so annoying! Can’t you see that I’ve been calling you?”
“What is R?” Evelyn asked
“I have a parent teacher meeting at 10:00 am. I need you to attend on Lucas‘ behalf. If anyone asks you about your identity, just
say that you’re one of my family’s housekeepers, got it?”
Lucas and Tittany had just gone public with their relationship, and she did not want anyone misunderstanding Tiffany’s position.
Pursing het lips, Evelyn calmly answered, “I’m not your mother, nor am I your sister–in–law either. You can ask your legal
guardian to attend it instead. Also, you’re not a child anymore. It’s about time you learn what manners mean.”
With that, Evelyn ended the call, feeling exhausted.
Sophia had never liked her. She had seen how her patents and elders had treated her and learnt from them. She also believed
that Evelyn had forced Lucas into marrying her.
Hence, whenever Sophia was on vacation and came over, she would purposely torment Evelyn, making her wash the clothes
and cook. She even brainstormed ways to torment her.
When Lucas and Tittany started getting close with each other, Sophia would deliberately come over and occupy Evelyn’s time to
prevent Evelyn from interrupting their dates.
Sophia was already 12, so it was about time she learned some manners. Evelyn was no longer obligated to indulge her with her
spoiled and entitled attitude.
Seeing how Evelyn had stood up for herself, Justine finally believed that Evelyn was determined to get a divorce. Hence, she
hurriedly went back to the Flying Seal Group to persuade Sebastian into meeting Evelyn
At around 5:00 pm, Evelyn bad received a call from Sharron Lowe, Lucas‘ mother after finishing her IV drip.
She hesitated momentarily before answering Sharron’s call.
Sophia had also taken the day off from school, and we can’t find her
Sharron spoke in an extremely overbearing tone as she questioned Evelyn in annoyance.
Not expecting such a turn of events, Evelyn frowned.
Sharron had never liked her, and one could even say that Sharron despised her. If it weren’t for Evelyn forcing Lucas to marry
her, he would have married someone suitable from high society pistead
“I don’t know where she is ”
“You’re the one who did not show up for the patent–teacher meeting. Are you trying to shirk from your responsibility now? You
weren’t even able to have a child after three years. Now, you qu’t even have the most basic sense of responsibility toward a
child”
“Calin down now. You know that’s not what Evie is like,” Maria cajoled on the other side. She coughed lightly and continued,
“Sophia is no longer a child, and she isn’t Evie’s responsibility.”
Maria Walker was Lucas‘ grandmother, and she was the only person in the Grant family who treated Evelyn well. She had
supported Evelyn throughout her three years of marriage.
In fact, Lucas had only agreed to marry her because Maria was in poor health and could not handle any stress.
Besides, Lawas grandfather, Arthur Grant, and Evelyn’s grandfather had been comrades in wat. Additionally, Maria was also
fond of Evelyn, so she had helped smooth things over for the marriage to happen
Seeing how Marta was now hvolved in the situation, Evelyn gave the situation some thought before she said, “I’ll try and contact
Sophia then.”
Perhaps she had spoiled Sophia too much in the past and embarrassed ber today. Sophia was at a rebellious age, and it was
dangerous for her to run off on her own.
She was also particularly at fault for speaking so harshly to Sophia too

Evelyn removed her IV drip, stumbling a little due to her dizziness. She then called Sophia multiple times, but Sophia refused to
answer and declined her calls instantly.
It was almost as if Sophia was playing a game with her.
After working in the PR department for three years, Evelyn had a keen eye and was able to honed her attention to details. She
quickly scrolled through Sophia’s Instagram, Spotify, and Twitter to look for some clues.
Once she was sure that Sophia was at a club, she rushed over there.
However, when she entered the private lounge, she immediately saw many familiar faces inside the room.
In the middle of the crowd sat Lucas and Tiffany.
At that moment, Sophia was clinging onto Tiffany, asking her about her alma mater, Aurelian University.
Spotting Evelyn through the corner of her eyes, she immediately grabbed Tiffany’s hands, claiming, “Since Lucas likes you so
much, I might as well start treating you as if you’re my sister- in–law. Is that alright with you?”
