Chapter 509
X spoke softly and politely in public, but even her humble words couldn’t hide the fiery hatred in her
eyes. Sophia, it’s still too soon for you to feel triumphant.
Meanwhile, with an anticipated look on his face, Richard nced around and deliberately said, “Who
here is my brother-inw? Shouldn’t he be with you at a time like this?”
When Joe and Faye heard this, both of their faces filled with anticipation. However, Sophia only replied,
“You’ll meet him sooner orter.”
Upon hearing that, Richard stopped asking questions. After all, they were hosting a grand banquet. If the
main guest of the party didn’t appear, Sophia would have to do double acting alone. Tsk! A rich and
powerful old man? What lies! In the end, she’s just Taylor Murray’s assistant who’s in charge of cleaning
the toilets!
The banquet that day was indeed grand and lively. Not only many rtives of the Edwards Family had
come, several of Sophia’s Bayside University ssmates were there too. X was really excited to see
Sophia embarrass herself for not being able to introduce her old husband! The acknowledgement
session was about to begin but Sophia’s old husband that she had promised would attend the banquet
hadn’t appeared yet. At that moment, Joe finally realized that something was wrong so he hurriedly
grabbed Sophia and pulled her into a room. As soon as he was about to close the door, the rest of the
family rushed into the room.
“Sophia, is your husbanding or not?”
Sophia was fiercely thrown onto the sofa by Joe and her small body immediately sank into the sofa.
Towering over the sofa, Joe red at her angrily. However, in the face of Joe’s anger, Sophia chuckled
and said, “How would I know whether he wille or not? I’m not him. How can I know what he’s
thinking?”
At that moment, she maintained her calm and spoke in a nonchnt manner. Sophia even slowly took a
sip of her cocktail. Meanwhile, Gemma and Hale followed her like shadows.

“You—” Joe finally realized that he had fallen for Sophia’s tricks.
Standing at the side, X coldly said, “Turns out that the rumors are true. Sophia didn’t marry a wealthy
old man at all. Instead, she’s just Taylor Murray’s assistant! All her outfits were borrowed from Taylor’s
wife!”
Hearing this, Joe looked even more upset. However, Faye quickly rebuked, “That’s impossible. We saw
her buy a ten million wedding dress from Ido’s gship bridal shop with our own eyes! The wedding ring
on her finger is the real thing too!”
X turned to nce at Sophia, who was still sipping her cocktail, and ruthlessly exposed her disguise.
“I’ve already asked Natasha. She works for Eddie Fletcher, Taylor’s wife. The wedding dress and
diamond ring all belong to Eddie. Sophia is now Eddie’s right hand and is highly regarded!”
After hearing this, Joe looked at a calm and collected Sophia in disbelief. She’s just Taylor’s assistant
and managed to lend her owner’s items to show off because she’s highly regarded by her owner? Those
words about marrying a wealthy and powerful old man were all lies! She tricked me! Not only did she
gain the reputation of being a daughter of the Edwards family for nothing, she earned 5% of Edwards
Group’s shares! I did all that to gain a wealthy son-inw but I didn’t expect that I let a liar join the family!
“You… b*tch! B*tch!” After finding out the truth, Joe was so furious that he stood up and raised his palm
to p Sophia as he yelled, “I’ll beat you to death!”
Smash! All of a sudden, Sophia threw the ss in her hand to the ground and it shattered into a million
pieces. Seeing this, Joe staggered back in fear. Then, Sophia crossed her legs confidently and said, “So
what if I’m a liar? The paternity test has already been notarized and you, Joe Edwards, personally signed
the share transfer form. I’m now the second daughter of the Edwards family and I have 5% of the
Edwards Group’s shares!”
Joe and Faye werepletely dumbfounded. They never thought that they would be tricked by Sophia.
Everything that happened was all part of her n! Joe’s hand that was raised a moment ago was
trembling and he couldn’t put it down. His plump body trembled as he yelled, “Y-You’re a swindler! An
imposter!”
Hearing this, Sophia lifted her chin arrogantly and countered, “Even if I’m a swindler, what can you do?
Do you want to make a scene at this reunion banquet? Do you want to humiliate yourself in front of the
elders of the Edwards Family? Or do you want every single guest that came today to know that your
second daughter is a swindler?”
At that moment, Joe’s body continued to tremble and it was even harder for him toy hands on
Sophia. Should I let the Edwards family’s elders see me embarrass myself? The banquet has already
started. How can I run out there and tell everyone that I’ve epted a swindler into the family?
Seeing Sophia argue with reason even after her lies were exposed on the spot, X couldn’t help but
speak up, “Sophia, this is your fault. How is Mr. Edwards supposed to clean up your mess? Everyone
came to the banquet to see your husband. If they find out that the daughter of the Edwards Family used
to be an assistant, the Edwards Family will bepletely humiliated and our reputation will be ruined!”
Sophia turned to X and suddenly smiled. “I wonder what’s the purpose of today’s banquet.”
Hearing this, X didn’t know how to answer her. Everyone suddenly realized the purpose of the
banquet was to celebrate their reunion. Guests that attended the banquet were there to see Sophia
reunite with the Edwards family. As for who she was married to, the guests might pay little attention to it;
the main focus of the banquet was to see Sophia return to the Edwards family. Whether Sophia used to
be a prostitute or an assistant who scrubbed toilets, if they chose to expose this to the public, the
Edwards Family would be humiliated. After all, it was shameful that the daughter of the Edwards Family
was deserted and forced to be an assistant. It would ruin the Edwards Family’s reputation!
Once the people thought it through and understood everything, everyone regretted their past actions,
especially Joe. Back when he triumphantly sent invitations to the elders of the Edwards family, he
boasted about Sophia and told them how good she was. He even told them that she was the top student
in Bayside University! After all, having a daughter with a promising future would raise his status in the
Edwards Family. If Joe went out and ruined the reunion banquet, he would just be humiliating himself.
The moment Joe realized that hepletely fell for Sophia’s n, he was so angry that he almost
fainted. Looking at the upset looks on the faces of the people around the room, Sophia drawled, “Since
we’ve already hosted the banquet, let’s end it on a perfect note! That way no one would be humiliated.”
“You… You…” Faye red at Sophia and she was so furious that she couldn’t say a word.
The reunion banquet was fully organized by the Edwards Family and it had cost them millions.
Meanwhile, Sophia arrived empty-handed and didn’t pay a penny at all. I never thought that she’s a
swindler! And now this swindler has the same reputation of being the daughter of the Edwards family.
She even has the same amount of shares as me!
“You liar! You tricked me! Give me back my shares!”
Faye shouted as she rushed toward Sophia, ready to beat her up. However, Sophia quickly twisted
Faye’s arm and pulled her into her arms. Faye struggled like a mad dog when she suddenly heard a soft
whisper, “Does your parents know that you’ve slept with Richard…”
