Revenge On My First Love novel Chapter 310

To give the public an explanation, Zain demoted the masters of those families.

Due to the demotion, they were irritated, so they blamed their daughters.

"Look what you've done! Do you know how difficult for me to get promoted again?"

"Dad, I did it for your own good."

"For my good? How ridiculous! Bullshit!"

"Dad, think about it. Why do I want to please Leah? I wished I could help you."

"This time, my friends and I did it for our fathers, so we took the chance to impress her. But she didn't help us but ratted us out. I'm also pissed!"

Those girls' fathers thought about Leah, who looked young but was indeed scheming.

They were enlightened.

"OK. I got it."

They were all annoyed by the Berry family.

Zain punished his subordinates to distance himself from them so the public understood why. In the beginning, Chloe was puzzled. However, after thinking it over, she smiled.

"Sophia, I didn't expect such a simple matter to have a huge ripple effect."

Sophia chuckled, "You still have a long way to go."

Chloe was surprised. "You don't look shocked at all. Did you call Bailey to ask him to do so?"

"I did." Sophia didn't hide it from her. "If I hadn't called him on time, he would have been to those women's houses. It wouldn't have had such a good effect."

"TSK. TSK. I'm upset now. We're both from affluent families. Why I can't be compared to you?"

"Chloe, I like your pure mind and innocence. It's not bad."

"I'm afraid I will be your drag."

"No, you won't."

Sophia liked Chloe's straightforwardness and honesty. Sophia just wished she could remain to be like this all her life.

When Harris met Bailey, he said thankfully, "Mr. Duncan, I didn't expect you to help me. I do appreciate this favor."

Bailey needed his appreciation. After Harris became the mayor, the Duncan family would be benefited.

However, he reminded Harris, "Mr. Sutton, we've known each other for several months and worked together a few times. Honestly, I didn't come out with this plan."

Harris was surprised. "Really? Who did, then?"

Bailey smiled. "It's great to owe you a favor, but it was Sophia's plan. I don't want to take the credit."

He wasn't greedy, and he didn't think it was necessary to hide the truth.

"Ms. Lawson?"

Harris was surprised.

"Right."

Recalling what he said to Sophia at the auction and what had happened recently, Harris realized he had misunderstood her. He had thought she would be angry with him, but she helped him instead.

Bailey warned him, "Mr. Sutton, Ms. Lawson is indeed outstanding, but you cannot have a crush on her."

Harris understood what he implied. "Don't worry, Mr. Duncan. I know what to do."

"All right."

Somehow, Zain learned who was behind this incident.

He always thought highly of Sophia. She was from Pinkerton but ran companies well in Sealand. Besides, she also became the president of Asco Group, such a big enterprise. Zain believed Sophia was indeed excellent and wished her to take his side.

After all, once Zain became the city mayor, he could help Sophia greatly. In the future, Sophia's companies could also be compared to Drake's.

However, how Sophia dealt with this matter showed the side she had taken.

Zain was reluctant and wanted to fight for her.

Therefore, he went to Sophia's company.

Sophia received him. The two met in a meeting room.

Chloe served them tea and snacks before leaving.

While sipping the herbal tea, Sophia waited for Zain to start speaking.

Zain took a sip of his tea and said, "Ms. Lawson, your company is unique. When I visit other companies, they always serve me coffee. You are the only one serving me tea."

"I'm not into coffee. It's harmful to my health. I prefer all kinds of tea. It's fragrant."

Zain put down his teacup and went straight to the point, "Ms. Lawson, you spread rumors online. Does it mean you'll help Harris Sutton?"

Sophia sipped her tea before putting her teacup down. With a professional smile, she replied, "Mr. Berry, I guess you might not know the cause of this matter."

"Oh? Can you tell me more details, please?"

"The lady who has just left the meeting room is Chloe. Mr. Berry, you should know her."

"Yes, I do."

"All right. Bluntly speaking, your younger sister has a crush on Bailey. You also know it, right?"

"Yep."

"Good. Your sister likes Mr. Duncan, but Mr. Duncan isn't interested in her. She vented her anger on Chloe. Chloe is my best friend, and I won't allow anyone to hurt her."

"I did so to teach your sister a lesson."

Zain beamed at her. "You could have done it privately, right? Why did you have to make it so public? Ms. Lawson, I believe there are some other reasons behind it."

Sophia picked up her teacup again and sipped. "There are many ways to teach a person a lesson, and I usually use the lethal one."

Zain squinted at her.

The atmosphere became tense.

However, Sophia still sipped her tea calmly as if she hadn't felt Zain was trying to put pressure on her.

After a while, Zain continued, "Mr. Lawson, you won't give me any chance, will you?"

Sophia knew what he implied. She slowly put down the teacup and raised her head, her eyes glittering.

"Mr. Berry, please go home. We always have different opinions and take different sides. Please don't waste your time. It's worthless."

Zain stood up. "I'm leaving, then, Ms. Lawson."

"Chloe, please walk Mr. Berry out."

Chloe had been waiting outside already. She entered and reached out her hand, "This way, please, Mr. Berry."

Zain stopped speaking. After all, he had known Sophia's decision from her response.

It didn't take him a long time to leave the meeting room. Zain didn't speak to Chloe or apologize to her.

They entered the elevator, and there was no one else.

Chloe didn't feel awkward at all. After all, Zain's younger sister had taken the initiative to provoke her.
