Chapter 174
“I’ve built ten Schools of Hope under X’s name so that more schooling opportunities are provided to
the children living in the mountains. They don’t have to pay a single cent for rent or food. I hope X will
like this present from me!”
Thunderous apuse exploded right there and even Sophia had joined in. Even though the Harper
Family’s main reason for doing charity was to increase their poprity, they still had done it anyway.
However, X did not like it at all. What she wanted was Eternal Love, not some poor Schools of Hope!
Nevertheless, her impable acting skills hadpletely masked her true feelings. She was so moved
that she sobbed while saying something that was entirely untrue. “Richard, I love this present so much!”
They couldn’t help themselves but tightly hug each other.
Another thunderous apuse boomed. Sophia had also fervently pped her hands, but the stunning
red glimmer shining from the Eternal Love on her finger almost reddened X’s eyes as well.
With that, the charity banquet organized by the Harper Family came to an end and they did not try to
bully Sophia anymore. Perhaps it was because she had ‘deliberately’ brought some powerful figures with
her, which brought enough pride to the Harpers, so they were surprisingly satisfied with Sophia’s
performance.
When the banquet began, Richard, who had just given a moving speech, went to take a short rest.
In the rest area, Mrs. Harper patted his shoulder and said in satisfaction, “I can’t believe that woman has
this capability! I definitely have underestimated her! Son, it’s normal for a man to be in love with several
women at once. Many of them have a woman at home who’s dutiful and a few capable ones outside. Did
you think I didn’t know about the few witches in your dad’spany? Since they can help him with his
business and never threaten our positions, I’m toozy to deal with them. Sophia, on the other hand, is
quite capable and might be able to assist you in your career in the future. Don’t worry, I’ll talk some
sense into X for you, so go ahead and be with her! Just don’t make a big deal out of it. However, I only
have one condition for that—X must be the one who gives birth to your heir. If Sophia really wants to
be with you, you have to ask her to perform a tubectomy. This is my only request!”
Upon hearing that, he was beyond delighted. “Thanks, mom!”
Standing outside the door, X had heard everything. Her face, which became even more beautiful with
makeup, became extremely distorted because of her anger within.
Have a woman at home who’s dutiful and a few capable ones outside?
Hah, do you think you can enter the Harper Family because of this, Sophia? It’s impossible!
Halfway through the banquet, Ka went to the lounge to take a rest, but she saw X crying alone in
the room until her makeup was soiled. Hence, Ka quickly asked for the reason.
In between her tears, X told her about the conversation that Richard and Mrs. Harper had today,
which she overheard. After hearing that, Ka became so angry that her entire body trembled.
“That b*tch has some good tactics indeed! Don’t worry, I will never let her marry into the Harper Family! I
will ruin her reputation tonight!”
Upon seeing Ka’s facial features distorting due to hatred, X was relieved. If Sophia wants to marry
into the Harper Family, she will have to bypass me and Ka first!
Halfway through the banquet, Sophia seemed to have drank too much alcohol, so she went to the
bathroom. Her face was flushed red and she felt dizzy when she exited with the cocktail that she drank
now taking its effect on her. As she touched up on her makeup earlier, a sudden fragrance wafted into
her nose, weakening her limbs as she slowly fainted while holding the sink.
Oh no!
She realized that something was wrong. However, her consciousness slowly sank as the world spun
around her. She could not muster an ounce of strength within her.
Suddenly, she felt a stabbing pain in her neck. A cool liquid was then immediately injected into her and it
seemed to flow through her entire body, prating every blood vessel instantly. In no time, she felt that
her body was boiling.

She did not lose her consciousness. On the contrary, she was even more alert, but she felt as if she was
floating in the air and even hallucinated that she was already in heaven.
Three bulky men who looked like waiters quickly carried Sophia into the guest room on the second floor
and closed the door. The room number was 402.
The three of them harshly threw her on the bed. At that moment, her eyes were wide open, butcked
focus. While she was in a state of daze, they surrounded her and started to remove her clothes
disrespectfully.
Unbeknownst to them, someone had opened the door and walked into the room, standing behind the
three men in silence. As the lights were dim, his face could not be clearly seen, but his eyes were zing
with fury…
Ten minutester, Ka led a group of youngdies from rich families to the fourth floor that was full of
guest rooms—a few of them were upied by guests who were resting.
“Ka, where is the present that your uncle gave you? Quickly show to us!”
While walking to room 402, she said, “I left it in the guest room. I’ll show it to you immediately! It’s an
extremely rare gift!”
She winked mysteriously.
X seemed to know what Ka’s intentions were and matched her rhetoric as she said excitedly, “I
promise you guys won’t be disappointed by it! As we are organizing a charity banquet tonight, it’s quite
inconvenient to bring out stuff that’s too ostentatious. So you only get a chance of looking at this.
Remember to take out your phones to take some nice pictures!”
Ka unted her present like it was some extraordinary, unique item and dragged everyone to look at
it. Even though the rest wanted to stay in the hall to admire their idols, they followed her out of courtesy.
At that moment, all of them took out their phones to prepare to take pictures.
After Ka and X exchanged a vindictive look, the former took out a room card and swiped it at the
door of room 402.
It beeped.
The electronic door lock was opened, but they could not open the door—someone had locked it from the
inside.
Hmph?
Ka was confused by it and looked at the number of the door again—it was the right room and she had
even arranged a huge scene inside. ording to her ns, the door should not have been locked.
Immediately after she swiped the room card, the door should have opened and everyone would see the
drama unfolding within.
She even ordered the people involved that they were not allowed to lock the door from the inside.
After a few unsessful attempts, the few youngdies whom she had dragged were not quite happy.
“Did you get the wrong room?”
“It’s fine if you can’t open it. Let’s head back to look at the idols!”
Upon seeing that everyone was about to leave, Ka definitely would not let them leave. After all, she
had already prepared the spectacle, which would be nothing without an audience. “Come on, don’t be so
impatient. Just give me some time. I promise you guys won’t regret it after seeing the gift!”
Hence, everyone patiently waited while she continued to knock on the door. Soon, it was opened by a
man in a suit who looked at them impatiently. “What?”
Ka looked in the room and specifically looked at the bed, but it was empty. Why is this happening?
Without waiting for her reaction, the man fiercely shut the door. “You’re crazy!”
Bang!
Just like that, Ka and the group of girls were locked outside. Upon seeing that, she quicklyforted
the group, who were bing impatient. “I must have gotten the wrong ce. It’s my fault.”
Suddenly, a shrill scream came next door. “Aaaah!”
