Chapter 1641


    Simon appeared disgruntled, yet he still showed respect to the guests. He nodded in acknowledgment.


    “I’m sorry, Simon.” Graham spoke up. “Sophia was living abroad and is not very proficient in the


    language. She might have used the wrong words unintentionally.”


    Simon expressed his concern, “Si, I’ve watched you grow. You’ve never disappointed your parents.


    How did you—”


    Graham interrupted, “Alright, Simon. I’ll handle it. You should take a rest.”


    Simon could only exit the room.


    Just as Sophia was about to voice herint, Graham looked at her sternly. “Simon is the longest-


    serving butler in this house, the one my dad trusts the most. You shouldn’t have spoken to him like

    Sophia retorted, “Are you ming me now?” She looked pitiful and burst into tears. “I knew you’d


    eventually side with your parents and exclude me and our son! We’re not wee in this house. I’m

    He paused and appeared troubled.


    “Did you talk to your father? Can the headquarters provide financial support?” she asked.


    “My dad doesn’t think it’s a good idea,” he replied as he had been advised. “But my mom believes that


    the overseas market isn’t our strong suit. It’s best to take this opportunity to withdrawpletely…”


    Sophia widened her eyes. “What? How can we do that?!”

    “Graham, if the headquarters can’t support us, we’ll have to find our own solution!”


    He was taken aback. “What do you mean?”


    She smiled and leaned in to whisper, “Do you know Fat Lawler? I’ve been talking to him recently. He’s


    in Cumulus City and is auctioning off two mining sites.”


    “Mining sites?”


    “Yes! Minerals are currently selling at a low price. Can’t we profit substantially if we buy low and sell


    high? I’ve heard that some Centrolispanies are interested too.


    “Don’t worry. I’ll continue negotiating with Fat Lawler to secure the best possible deal. We won’t miss


    this opportunity!”
