Chapter 767


    Sophia initially attempted to address Carmen’s father, but Cooper interrupted,”Darling, didn’t you say that


    you wanted to watch themotion? We are going to the hospital after that.”


    She then turned to the other direction and headed to Vi No. 6 to watch the buzz.


    Upon looking at her back view, Michael noticed the scars on her hand that were hidden under her sleeve.


    His mind went nk as he immersed himself in great joy and sorrow. The leashes in his hands were


    released again, allowing the tworge dogs to dly run toward her. Even the dogs know that their


    mother has returned. Why didn’t I realize it? What exactly has happened in the past three years?


    “Uncle, uncle…” It was only when Stanley came over to give Michael a shake did thetter snap out of


    his reverie. He then realized that Sophia had gone to watch the show.


    As a former actor, he was able to hide his emotions under the surface. Now that he had returned to his


    senses, he immediately uttered, “I’m fine.”


    As he looked at the figure standing among the crowd while watching themotion, his world had


    turned upside down—deep within his heart.


    “Stan, take Carmen home first.”


    Upon hearing Michael’s words, Stanley took Carmen home with Sean before returning to watch the


    show.


    Sophia, who was standing among the crowd and focusing on the buzz of the group of people, suddenly


    seemed to hear that someone was calling her. “Sophia—”


    With that feeling in mind, she subconsciously turned, but nobody was calling her. Only Carmen’s father


    was standing not far behind her.


    In a state of puzzlement, she turned to continue watching themotion.


    What she did not notice was the trace of inconspicuous shiversting only for a split second that the man


    with white hair had at the moment she subconsciously looked behind.


    Chica, have you returned? Why don’t you recognize me? Why… didn’t youe home?


    After Stanley sent Carmen home, he even locked Judge inside so that she could y with him at home.


    Upon seeing Michael standing among the crowd and spacing out, Stanley secretly pointed at the person


    next to Cooper before uttering, “Uncle, look over there—that person is called Lucile. She’s Cooper’s


    daughter and my aunt’s younger sister. She does look like Sophia from behind! Uncle Cooper said that


    Lucile’s face was injured, so she has undergone stic surgery in Xavion Cosmetic Hospital and will


    have the bandage removed today.”


    Michael did not budge as he gazed intently at the figure.


    The show among the crowd was nearing the climax.


    Upon seeing Sam’s appearance, the West and Edwards Families kneeled around him, as if they saw


    their savior.


    “Master Sam, please save us! Our family is going to fall apart if you don’t save us!” The words were from


    Victoria’s father.


    A lot of things happened in the minor Edwards Family in these two weeks. They went bankrupt, their


    debtors showed up at their doors, and they had a rted department conducting investigations on them


    —the same of which had happened to the West Family. They could not leave, had their lives thrown into


    chaos, and were unable to die.


    “9th Old Master, someone is targeting the Edwards Family. When they knew that I’m from the Edwards


    Family, they framed us and threw us in such a desperate situation. Their next target would definitely be


    the entire Edwards Family! Master Sam, you have to save us!”


    Peter chimed in as well. “Master Sam, we are all rtives. You can’t just let us die!”


    Upon looking at Peter and Victoria’s father on their knees, a stunning Victoria with tears streaming down


    her cheeks, and the cold, stoical Cooper standing amidst the crowd, Sam raised his brows as he


    announced in an indifferent tone, “This time, it isn’t because the Edwards Family refuses to save all of


    you. It’s because there’s nothing we can do…”


    The crowd whined and wailed when Sam refused to help them. It was not easy for the West Family to be


    able to live a good life, so they absolutely refused to return to the life of poverty. The same could be said


    of the Edwards Family.


    Victoria suddenly saw Sophia watching themotion among the crowd. As soon as Victoria recognized


    her, she abruptly stood up and dashed toward thetter while pointing at her in fury. “It’s her! This is the


    ugly b*tch whonded us in this mess! Master Sam, it’s her! She’s the one who ruined the Edwards


    Family! Catch her! Catch her now!”


    Sam’s gazended on Cooper, who stood beside the girl wrapped in bandage, and finally understood


    why thetter took action against them. Serves them right!


    Upon seeing that Sam was unfazed, Victoria dashed up to Sophia in grimace like a gust of wind, as if


    she wanted to destroy the other person’s face.


    An enraged Cooper was about to make a move when Sophia, who was beside him, suddenly uttered in a


    cold voice, “Dad, let me handle this matter myself.”


    Under his watch, she took two steps forward and confronted Victoria, who was charging at her. Before


    everyone could understand what was happening, two crisp clicks were heard before it was followed by


    Victoria’s shriek that sounded more tragic than a pig in a ughterhouse. “Ahhhhh—”


    The screechsted until she held her hand as she kneeled on the ground, screaming in a helpless yet


    terrifying manner, “My hand! It’s broken!”


    Sophia had broken Victoria’s hand with only one move—an extremely skilled and professional technique.


    Everyone looked at thedy with a cold expression and backed away in fear.


    Michael, who squeezed into the crowd to watch themotion, happened to witness her action and


    found it extremely familiar—it was the technique of the Phantom Wolf.


    His eyes filled with horror as he recalled his sister, whom Phantom Wolf had trained into another


    person. My chica, what have you endured all these years?


    Sophia’s sharp, ruthless technique stunned Cooper as well, causing him to have a sudden realization


    that his daughter was not a defenceless little girl—she was under the care of Quinton, the Phantom Wolf,


    for three years!


    When she regained consciousness, she had told Cooper, “I’ve killed many people in order to survive.”


    In order to survive, she escaped from the town in the desert in a car to seek help in big cities. During that


    period of time, everywhere in that ce was in the midst of chaos. Once the war started, the world


    became an incredibly difficult ce to live in since there were bandits everywhere taking advantage of


    the situation tomit crimes. It would not have been a smooth journey for her as a woman to drive and


    venture through many chaotic towns in her journey to an even morewless city.


    Countless people would have targeted her car, aiming for thest piece of fortune and food she had on


    her—or even targeting her body!


    If Sophia did not have a method to protect herself, she would not have peacefully survived for the past


    three years. If it had not been because she contracted Virs-18, she would have boarded the warship that


    was evacuated from there and safely returned to Cethos.

    Cooper did not dare to even think what she had endured in those three years!


    At the same time, he felt content yet heartbroken to know that his daughter would be able to protect


    herself if he was no longer around one fine day.


    Without even ncing at Victoria, who was crying on her knees, Sophia turned and smiled at him. “Dad,


    let’s go.”


    Cooper had originally nned to leave, but when he saw a stout b*stard approaching the crowd before


    standing next to Sam to watch the scene, his usually indifferent eyes suddenly burst into mes at that


    moment. It’s him—the person who raped Annabel!


    It felt like a grim storm had suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
