Chapter 1242

"Are you worried I'd do something crazy to keep me here?" Sophie's voice was sharp, her frustration spilling over. "It's not that, Soof. It's a mess at home right now. I just don't want you to add more chaos to all of this." "Add more chaos?" Her eyes narrowed, anger simmering beneath her words. "You got my husband arrested, and you still expect me to stay quiet?" "Please calm down, Soof." Claude's expression shifted, his usual gentle demeanor hardening. He stepped closer, clearly ready for a serious talk. "I know you love Jacob," he began, his voice low but firm, "but think about this: is Jacob more important to you than Yancey Group?" "He's the father of my child," Sophie answered, her voice shaking with emotion. "All I care about is protecting my family. I don't give a damn about the company." "Without the company, do you really think Jacob would still treat you the same, Soof?" Sophie's jaw tightened, but she said nothing. Her resentment toward Claude was clear in her gaze.
