Chapter 273


    Joe didn’t expect that Daniel would side Sophia, so he continued defending himself. “What do you mean


    by selling my daughter? She’s not somemodity to be sold! I remember that I asked you to introduce


    a suitable partner for my daughter to marry! You told me that you would find a good family for her; I didn’t


    expect that you sold her off!”


    Wow!


    He is trying to nder me now!


    Even so, Daniel was not angry at him. “Mr. Edwards, stop denying the fact that you sold your daughter


    off. Your son-inw is actually here. Tsk-tsk, by the way, his wealth is on par with a nation.”


    Joe’s brows shot up when he heard that.


    My son-inw is as rich as a country!


    He did not have other rtives; he only had a son. On top of that, he doted on Sophia very much. In


    Joe’s eyes, the fact that his son-inw’s wealth was on par with a nation was like a bottomless treasure


    pit for him.


    Daniel deliberately pretended to be looking up to him, and he gave some goodments about Michael.


    “Although he’s old and ugly, your son-inw is really rich. Joe, you’d better suck up to your daughter.


    Now, anything that she simply brings out from the house is enough for your lifetime expenditure. You’d


    better not ruin your rtionship with her!”


    Joe became greedier upon hearing that and changed his attitude entirely. He quickly asked Daniel


    obsequiously, “Who on earth is my son-inw? Master Levine, please enlighten me.”

    Daniel deliberately looked at the first floor of the venue, especially at the top-grade social circle.


    Joe was delighted beyond belief upon seeing that.


    My son-inw is someone with an impressive background! I bet he’s either the CEO of argepany


    or the founder of the real estate business!


    Unfortunately, Daniel refused to let him know. “I’m sorry. When you sold your daughter, we signed a


    contract. One of the terms was to cut off tiespletely. Your daughter’s personal wealth and life has


    nothing to do with you, and based on the contract, your question goes against the terms and conditions.”


    In the face of massive wealth, Joe did not care about the contract anymore. He merely wanted to know


    who his son-inw was.


    He put on a fake appearance as he said, “Oh, Master Levine, there’s something you don’t know—this


    daughter of mine had always been moving around on her own. Two years ago, after I married her off, I


    regretted it very much. I regret the fact that I’d not done a good job of being a father. Now that both of us


    have finally reunited, I will definitely be a good father to make up to her for all the sins I’ve done in the


    past. Right now, I just want to know who my son-inw is. I want to ask him if he has been treating my


    daughter well all this while.”


    “Ha!”


    Right after he finished his sentence, Sophia snorted mockingly and said loudly, “Father, if you want to


    know if I’m doing well or not, you can directly ask me.”


    Joe looked stern,pletely treating Sophia as if she was a lost belonging that he had just found.


    “Don’t interrupt when adults are talking.”


    He did not care at all if Sophia was doing well or not; all he cared about was how much his son-inw


    was worth, when he would die, and how much he, the father-inw, would get after that.


    It’s fine if Sophia refuses to tell me, as long as Daniel spills the beans.


    Seeing that Daniel still refused to tell the truth, Joe yed the pity card. “Master Levine, I only have two


    daughters in my entire life. My eldest daughter, Faye, is always by my side. My youngest daughter,


    Sophia, is also very important to me. I just want to know if my son-inw has been treating her well;


    that’s all.”


    Daniel still refused to tell him the truth. If he really did so, the entire Edwards Family would definitely cling


    onto Michael. Hence, he replied arduously, “Mr. Edwards, I am someone who goes by the rules strictly. I


    will never break any contract I’ve made.”


    Joe replied earnestly, “Come on! Is the contract more important than family? Isn’t it just a contract? How


    much does the penalty cost? I’ll pay it! Compared to my daughter’s happiness, any amount of money is


    nothing! I’m just worried that she’d be bullied by her inws. The reason for meeting him today is just to


    tell him that I’m still alive, in case he mistreats my daughter in the future, thinking that she’s all alone by


    herself.”


    However, Daniel still refused to tell him and walked away. Joe could not stop him and continued asking


    Sophia, who would not reveal anything to him.


    They definitely don’t let things go easily.


    An idea suddenly urred to X, who spoke gently to Nathan, “Nate, is your dad here today? Grandpa


    wants to see him! Ask him toe here now!”


    Nathan revealed his eyes from behind Sophia’s dress as he looked at the group of adults fearfully. Joe


    quickly inched his chubby cheeks close to him.


    “My good grandson, where is your daddy? Can you show me to him?”


    Even though the adults refuse to tell me, this might not be the case with little kids.


    After taking a look at Joe, Nathan suddenly jumped out from behind Sophia and ran to the crowd quickly.


    He must be going to his daddy!


    Joe, Faye, and X followed behind him happily while Sophia looked at them indifferently.


    The change in events had reached a point where Stanley could no longerprehend.


    He grabbed Sophia’s shoulders and shook her vigorously. “Sophia! Tell me the truth! What the hell is


    going on? Who’s your husband? Did your dad really sell you off for 80,000? Why didn’t you tell me


    earlier? Where’s that old guy? I’ll buy you back from him! If he doesn’t agree to that, I’ll kill him!”


    Sophia did not reply to Stanley. Instead, her gaze merely followed Nathan, who ran to the core circle of


    the group. Joe was so happy that he could barely cover his mouth.


    “My dear son-inw, where are you? I’m Sophia’s dad! Come out! Let’s have a chat!”


    Richard followed suit in delight.


    If Sophia’s husband is really a bigshot, he might be of use to my career. Perhaps I can use this


    opportunity to squeeze into the upper-ss society and have connections with them.


    After all, I’m Sophia’s ex, whom she can’t forget!


    Nathan rushed into the crowd. His eyes were darting around as he looked for his father while Joe looked


    at his demeanour expectantly.


    What would be the background of my son-inw?


    Is he a foreign prince? Or the boss of a financepany?


    No matter what, his background must be astonishing.


    Michael thought that Nathan was going to him, so he was mentally prepared to hug him. However,


    Nathan did not even look at him. He merely circled Michael before running away.


    After a while, Nathan finally found his ‘father’ and rushed over to hug his leg.


    Joe was actively nudging people away as he followed Nathan with a wide smile on his fat face. “My good


    son-inw, here Ie!”


    The three people behind him were also looking forward to this. However, when they saw the face of the


    man, their excited footsteps stopped immediately.


    The man whom Nathan hugged was actually Joel!


    Nathan Fletcher… Joel Fletcher… Is it possible that…


    Richard’s face nched immediately, while Faye also looked incredulous.


    Did Sophia marry Joel? And Nathan’s father is actually Joel? In that case, what the hell is going on


    between Joel and Irene?


    Uh…


    Even though Joe did not know Joel, he could recognize Joel’s title in the army based on his attire—Major


    General.


    He’s a Major General, and a member of the Fletcher Family!


    Joe was dumbfounded to find that his son-inw was the third generation of the army family.


    Delirious, he walked forward with his thick-skinned face as he rubbed his hands together. “My dear son-


    inw, I’m—”
