Chapter 17
Sophia had done a lot of research on these four great families and Hale had also previously made it
clear to her to stay away from people with these four family names to avoid any unnecessary troubles.
The Four Great Families were incredible as they had their own strengths—the Edwards had the riches of
the world, the Winstons had immense power, the Fletchers were the number one military family, and the
Mitchells were well-connected with people around the world. All of them were the top elites of Bayside
City.
Sophia’s stingy father, Joe, was also a member of the Edwards Family, which was one of the Four Great
Families. However, he was a b*stard and that resulted in him being distant from the Edwards Family of
Bayside City. He had long been excluded from the main forces of the Edwards Family with no chance for
him to have any connections with them.
He might have been an outcast b*stard, but he was still a member of that prestigious family in Bayside
City. Having Edwards as his family name made everything different for him.
Sophia graduated from South Bayside High School and was now continuing her studies at Bayside
University. However, she did not have the chance to meet anyone from the Four Great Families
because they were of an even higher society—even though all of her ssmates were from wealthy
families.
The Four Great Families were already out of reach for the normal rich people of the city, which meant
that one needed an insane amount of luck to meet someone from that society.
Michael has an insane amount of wealth and power. Could he really be someone from the Fletcher
Family? She couldn’t wrap her mind around the world of the rich.
During breakfast, she pretended to be shy as she lowered her head to eat silently. She disguised herself
as ady by chewing slowly and softly drank her congee. However, the man sitting on the other side was
able to finish his meal in just five minutes.
As soon as he was finished with his meal, he immediately stood up and ordered her. “Chica, I’m giving
you five minutes to quickly finish your meal. I’ll wait for you in the car.”
With that, he turned and left.
Sophia waited until he was out of the door before she returned to her animalistic side and shoved two
buns into her mouth before gobbling up everything.
She even scolded him while eating. Pervert!
After eating two buns and having two mouthfuls of porridge, she hurriedly grabbed her bag and walked
out the door in her 8cm high heels.
The sudden change from canvas shoes to high heels caused her to feel awkward when she wore them.
She wore a white skirt that covered her knees, making her look like a lonely white lotus in this chaotic
world while the shiny diamond ne weighed on her neck. Even though she didn’t like any of these
essories, Michael liked it.
When she wobbled her way to the car, he was already waiting for her on the passenger seat. As soon as
he saw her, he furrowed his brows and nced at his wristwatch before reaching out for her snowy white
thigh with his five fingers.
“It has been 8 minutes, so you are 3 minuteste, but considering that you are new here, I won’t punish
you. There won’t be a next time.”
Sophia was furious with him. I can’t even wear my lipstick within 5 minutes. However, Michael was the
one calling the shots, so she could only follow his instructions. Immediately, she forced herself to be timid
and answered in a sweet voice.
“Hubby, I fell down earlier. I promise there won’t be a next time.” Then, she lowered her head and
showed an aggrieved expression. “I’m also having my period and my stomach is killing me. You don’t
care for me at all, hubby.” I need to pretend to be fragile so that I can protect myself. Men are usually
quite protective toward weaker girls. He will definitely feel sorry for torturing me after seeing me this way.
After listening to her words, he also had a gloomy face as she looked at him innocently with her attractive
eyes.
A minute of weird silenceter, he pped his palm on her thigh. “Why are you talking like this? You’re
so disgusting! Speak properly!”
Sophia pretended to be furious at Michael’s ignorance, so she pursed her lips and remained silent.
Finally, he withdrew his hand before releasing the clutch to start the car and drive in the direction of
Bayside University. As he drove, he thought, I need to teach this chica a lesson; otherwise, she is going
to go over my head. Even though she is acting like a gentle person on the outside, no one knows what
she is thinking in her mind.
He continued to think to himself, I took time out of my busy schedule to send her to school personally, so
the little rtionship between us must have improved somehow. ording to this progress, our
consummation is not far away.
Just as he was feeling good about himself, he would never know the number of times Sophia called him
a pervert in her heart along the way.
Soon after, the car was approaching Bayside University, so she quickly said, “Hubby, let’s stop the car
here. You can just drop me here!”
The people in school loved to gossip because rich people were usually sensitive toward other people’s
materialistic possessions. If someone changed the car that they drove to school, news about it would
immediately spread through the whole school like wildfire.
Then, the other students would specte the person’s wealth ording to the price and quality of the
car, so that they could determine whether there was value in making friends with the said person.
Even the shade of your best friend’s lipstick would be enough to judge herpany’s recent financial
status in an instant.
Sophia thought, Michael’s car, if I’m not mistaken, is thetest Bugatti Veyron Convertible and there’s
only 10 of it in the world. The only people in Bayside City who can afford to drive such an expensive car
are either from the Four Great Families or a president of apany.
If I alight from a car like this, my identity will be exposed and I might even expose Michael’s identity too.
Then, I’ll be on the front page of the news for everybody to criticize.
Michael listened to her and stopped the car, but he didn’t realize that his car would draw a lot of
attention. If I actually drive into Bayside University in this car, I’m afraid that I’ll bring lots of unnecessary
trouble to this chica.
Just as she was about to alight from the car, he grabbed her arms with a lustful face. “Aren’t you going to
kiss me goodbye?”
She pretended to be timid and pped away his hand. “Hubby, you’re so bad!”
Just like that, she quickly ran off in her 8cm high heels the moment she got down from the car, as if she
was being chased after by some demons…
Michael’s lips twitched as he mumbled, “Am I that scary?”
After she was gone, he made a few phone calls.

“What? A press conference for a new movie? Isn’t that movie no longer being released in cinemas?
What new movie is this?”
There was a moment of silence.
“Oh, I’ve been in many movies, so I’ve forgotten about it. Postpone it for an hour. Since they want to say
that I’m being a diva, I’ll show them what a diva looks like.”
“Hale, remember to pick up Chica from Bayside University at 6PM.”
“Gemma, keep an eye on her.”
After running away from Michael’s line of vision. Sophia breathed a huge sigh of relief. His aura is so
terrifying!
Therefore, she hid in a corner near the university gate and chewed on a piece of gum to calm herself
down.
Bayside University was one of the scenic areas in Bayside City because the rich children of the city
came here for their studies. Most of these people weren’t married, so lots of people hoped to fall in love
with one of them at the university gate.
Therefore, many people would gather at the gates of Bayside University because they wanted to marry
into a wealthy family. However, Sophia thought these people were only fantasizing because she had
never seen a wealthy student exiting the gates and all of them traveled in luxurious cars without entering
the campus by foot.
Besides, the school had a strict ess control, so outsiders werepletely forbidden from entering the
university. Even so, the gates of Bayside University were still as lively as ever.
Sophia spat out her gum and hid in a public toilet. When she reappeared, her appearance had
completely changed.
Her white long skirt became an extremely short summer pants that showed off her fair thighs and her pair
of high heels were swapped with a pair of ck sneakers. She tied herdy-like curly hair into a bun and
hid it under a baseball cap. Then, she chewed some gum and listened to music while strolling into
school.
However, what she didn’t know was that the process of her chewing the gum and changing her clothes
became a high definition live broadcast that was connected directly to Michael’s phone.
When he saw her fair, long legs, he let out a vague sigh. “Tsk!”
