Chapter 15
The whole audience was in an uproar!
Sophia’s smile froze on her face, her voice trembling as she said, “Wh- what great–uncle? Sebastian, what are you talking about?”
An old man with a cane and white hair was helped out by the butler, smiling as he looked at Sophia: “Is this my future daughter–in–law? Not bad, not bad.”
“This is my grandfather’s cousin, Sebastian introduced casually, “He has been widowed for many years and has been wanting to remarry.

Sophia staggered back, “Impossible! Sebastian, this joke is not funny at all!”
“Sebastian, are you kidding me? He could be my grandfather!”
“Who allowed you to address Mr. Malfoy by his name? The bodyguard slapped Sophia across the face, causing half of her face to swell instantly.”
David then realized and hurriedly approached, “Mr. Malfoy, is there some misunderstanding here? You clearly were kind to Sophia…”
“Mr. Rowland, Sebastian interrupted him, his voice as cold as ice, “great–uncle really likes your daughter. As long as you agree to this marriage, the Malfoy Group is willing to establish a long–term partnership with the Rowland Group.”
David’s expression changed instantly.

Long–term cooperation… that was the Malfoy family! It was an opportunity for the Rowland Group to enter the ranks of the top families!
“Dad! Sophia grabbed her father’s arm in fear, “You won’t agree, right? I’m only in my early twenties!“”
David hesitated for a moment, then suddenly let go of his daughter’s
hand. “Being able to marry into the Malfoy family is your good.
fortune!”
David pushed her away and looked at Sebastian with a flattering smile, “Mr. Malfoy, rest assured, we will go get the license today! We will consummate the marriage tonight!”
Sophia looked at David in disbelief, her mind blank.
No!
It wasn’t like that!
It shouldn’t have been like this!
She cried and threw herself at Sebastian: “Sebastian! Are you joking with me? Don’t you love me the most? You would even give up your life for me!”
Sebastian took a step back, avoiding her touch with disgust.
“Do you like it? he sneered. “The girl I liked was the kind one at the charity gala three years ago, not you.
Sophia was struck dumbfounded: “What do you mean?”
“The meaning is, I mistook someone for you, thinking that I liked you, but actually, that person should be your sister, Elodie!”

Sebastian no longer looked at her, turning to the bodyguard. “What are you waiting for? Drag her away quickly. Great–uncle is waiting to settle the score!”
“No! No! I don’t want to!”
Sophia was struck as if by lightning, and she screamed hysterically.
Sebastian couldn’t even be bothered to spare a glance, signaling for the bodyguard to simply drag the person away.
The banquet continued, with glasses clinking and David trying to strike up a conversation with Sebastian several times, only to be coldly rebuffed.
Until the end of the show, David finally caught the opportunity to stop Sebastian, who was about to leave. “Mr. Malfoy, about the
collaboration…”
“Sure, Sebastian said, pointing to the parking lot. “Mr. Rowland stood ten meters away from the black Maybach and waited for me.“”
David didn’t hesitate and ran over to stand obediently.
The engine roared through the parking lot.
Sebastian stepped on the gas pedal, and the Maybach shot towards. David like an arrow released from a bow.
“Bang!”
David was hit and thrown several meters, landing heavily on the concrete ground, with blood instantly staining the ground red.
“Tell the doctor, Sebastian lowered the car window and said lightly to the approaching bodyguard, “to treat him to death.“”

The black sports car raced on the mountain road, reaching a speed of 200 miles per hour.
Sebastian’s hand gripping the steering wheel was bulging with blue veins, only slowly calming down after driving for an hour.
“Lodie, he murmured softly, “I have finally avenged you.
He dialed his assistant’s phone number and said, “Arrange a private jet to New York immediately.”
The assistant stammered, “Mr. Malfoy, I’m afraid it’s too late…”
“What does it mean?”
“Today… was the wedding day of Ms. Elodie and Mr. Watson.”
Sebastian slammed on the brakes suddenly. “A big wedding? How can there be a big wedding? Isn’t Emerson a vegetable?”
“This is what I have to report to you… the assistant’s voice trembled, “Mr. Watson woke up suddenly on Ms. Rowland’s first day in New York!“”
