Chapter 562 What Do You Want?
"Are you afraid of him?"
Drake had read her mind, and wondered how to explain it. Her words, however, stiffened him.
'Afraid of him? The King of the Underworld?'
Drake was amused and almost burst into laughter.
"Do you think I fear anyone?"
Sophia shook her head. However, his reaction was too weird.
"Sophia, did he harass you? You are my wife. I'm gonna kill him."
Seeing that he was about to leave, Sophia hurriedly hugged him from behind to stop him.
"No. He didn't."
"Let go of me. I've been kicked out of the Riley family, so you think I'm afraid of him, huh?"
"Of course not."
Although Sophia denied it, she was worried.
The King of the Underworld was a legendary man. She was afraid Drake would be in danger after
meeting him.
"Sophia, you thought so. I read your mind."Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
As soon as Drake spoke, he regretted it. He had blamed himself for enraging her just now as the King
of the Underworld. And now his words would only add fuel to the fire.
Sophia looked into his eyes. "Don't say that again, Drake. It's been almost a month since you stepped
down. Have I belittled you in the past month?"
"You can stop loving me. But you should trust me."
Drake hurriedly hugged her. "Don't listen to my nonsense, Sophia. I've never thought so."
Sophia softened her tone of voice. "Don't worry, Drake. The King of the Underworld wants to date me,
but you are the only man I love all my life."
Drake hugged her tightly and decided to stop making fun of her. Or he might lose his beloved wife.
When it was late at night, Paul messaged him. "Mr. Riley, has Mrs. Riley known your identity?"
Drake replied, feeling an intense headache, "I screwed up today's appointment."
Paul was impressed. "Well done!" he replied half jokingly.
Drake wished to beat him up as Paul had the guts to tease him.
"Tell me how to let her know the truth?"
Paul couldn't figure out any method so far. After all, Drake had made Sophia have a terrible impression
of the King of the Underworld. It was indeed impressive.
"Let me think about it. I'll tell you later, Mr. Riley."
The following morning, Sophia went to Rashad's office.
Due to others' wild guesses about their relationship, her appearance raised a mighty uproar
immediately.
When Rashad saw her, he was surprised. Sophia had been hiding from him for days. He didn't expect
her to appear suddenly.
"Sophia..."
"Stopping calling my first name. You don't deserve it."
Sophia had always talked to him unkindly before, but she had never been so rude as today. Rashad
could tell he must have done something to irritate her.
He walked to her. "What have I done to offend you, Sophia?"
Sophia subconsciously flinched. "Mr. Witt, please call me Ms. Lawson or Sophia Lawson."
Her resistance upset Rashad.
"Sophia, I..."
Rashad was at a loss for words.
Sophia gazed at him. "Don't you understand English, Mr. Witt?"
They had known each other for over a decade, but this was the first time she had treated him in such a
hostile way. It really frustrated Rashad.
After a long while, he still kept silent.
Sophia continued, "Rashad Witt, I'm here to tell you I know what you've done behind my back. Now
you can't blame me for not caring about our friendship."
Rashad wore a confused look and asked, "What have I done, Sophia? What do you mean?"
Sophia replied in disdain, "I've never known you are such an excellent actor. For many years, you
pretended to be a gentleman. You really impress me."
Rashad suddenly realized if she had known something he'd done.
He denied it, as he had always been careful and cautious enough.
"I cannot prove Molly has worked with you, but I can prove you are working with Jessica now."
Rashad didn't expect her to know it for real.
"What do you mean, Sophia?" Rashad would rather die than admit it.
"Well, Mr. Witt, your brilliant plan always succeeds, so you never expect I would know you helped
Jessica to look for a lawyer, do you?"
Rashad's eyes widened.
He eagerly wished Sophia could ask him for help, so he had helped Jessica.
He realized he had made a stupid move.
"I can explain, Sophia..."
He reached out while explaining, but Sophia ducked him.
"No need for it. I didn't know what you'd done until today."
Before Rashad retorted, she added, "Earlier, Mr. Stark told me he hired Jessica to repay someone's
kindness. I didn't know who he referred to. Now, I realize it should be you, Mr. Witt."
"Sophia, I..."
"Stop calling my first name. You disgusted me."
Sophia subconsciously winced to distance herself from him again.
Rashad gaped at her and couldn't believe his ears, as she said he disgusted her.
"Jessica has always been against me in the Cannon Group. It's her idea and also your plan, right? I
didn't expect you to be so ambitious. You've gained control over the Riley Group, and now you even
want to get Lawson Group, huh?"
"Rashad Witt, what on earth do you aim for? Tell me."
Rashad shook his head vigorously. "I've never thought of getting the Lawson Group. You've
misunderstood me, Sophia."
Sophia reached out to stop him.
"I don't believe a single word you said. I guess you've also helped Jessica to replace Mr. Stark."
Rashad clenched his fists tightly.
"Tell me where the heck Mr. Stark is."
"Sophia, listen to me."
Whenever Rashad approached Sophia, she dodged.
He had never seen her resist him so much.
Her dodge upset him, sending a sharp pang into his chest.
"Cut the crap. Where on earth is Mr. Stark?"
Before Rashad spoke, Sophia added, "I understand. Since you did it, you've chosen to be my foe. How
am I supposed to know his whereabouts from you? Silly me!"
"Sophia, I..."
Sophia stopped him again. "Enough. You don't need to say anything. It's alright if you don't want to tell
me where Mr. Stark is. I'll find him. Rashad Witt, we'll never be friends again."
