Chapter 937
Now that he knew that Ian was being cheated on, as the 9th Old Master Edwards, he could not just sit
back and let it happen! It was a lot of money! Besides, the money was not as important as the reputation
of the Edward Family! Compared to being cheated of money and a ruined reputation, it was worse to be
cheated of sex!
Although Ian and Sandra had broken off the engagement, he was still an unmarried young man. He was
a popr, handsome and wealthy man, not to mention an eligible bachelor in Bayside City. If he really
was cheated by that fake Lucile, then he would lose his value! Plus, this was about the reputation of the
Edward Family!
Clearly, Sam was very hesitant. After a whole day of having tea and chatting with Sophia only did he
relent. “I’ll think about it when I get home. Don’t worry; I won’t say anything for now.”
With that, Sam left. Sophia kept thinking about it and was afraid that he would identally reveal their
secret, so she would often go to his shop and have lunch with him, brainstorming anding up with
ideas. Coincidentally, hispany had opened a new shop next door and Sam was there almost every
day. And so, Sophia would eat with him daily and chat with him while she was there.
When Cooper finally found out, he personally went to the shop and ruthlessly threatened Sam. He
knew that this was just a trick to coax Sophia to go to Sam, or that Sam was taking the opportunity to
come to Sophia. This way, there would be many opportunities to talk to Sophia! They were overused
tactics by Michael, so Cooper could see through it at a nce!
Meanwhile, Sam did not expect Cooper to see through him, so he hastily obliged Sophia. Anyway, the
Edwards Family were divided into factions and Ian was in Jordan’s branch. His embarrassment would
bring happiness to Sam. So, he watched as Ian was cheated of his money and sex.
Meanwhile, Cooper took the opportunity to take away his dog. In fact, Sam was always away from
Bayside City and was all over the world, so Corrado would be bored at home alone. It was more fun at
Sophia’s—there were cats, dogs, and a lolita there. Hence, it followed Cooper back without resisting.
During this period of time, Sophia watched Sandra’s movements closely and hired more spies along the
way. She specifically chose those who were not good looking, in case Abbie wanted to sleep with them
again. The spies then brought back a stream of news which was simply entertaining!
Vincent and Ian were pursuing Lucile feverously, while Lucile was also very tactful. She had the two of
them wrapped around her little finger as they willingly fought for her favor.
December came and Maddie dropped by all of a sudden.
Recently, Sophia would always tip Maddie off with exclusive news. As such, theirpany was earning
a lot. “Every year, ourpany has to work with dozens of other influential media agencies in the
country to organize the ‘Light of Cethos’ star selection event. This is thergestpetition in our
country and it’s very influential.”
Sophia looked at the promotional materials uncertainly, not knowing what Maddie was up to. Then,
Maddie added quickly, “Taylor was disqualified due to hisck of work in these three or four years. Back
then, he and Ethan would always be in the top one and two spots but even if they won, they would never
attend the award ceremony. So, I was hoping you could convince Taylor to attend the ceremony this
time.”
Skimming through the data, the award was the most influential artistpetition in Cethos and even in
the Cethosiannguage world, involving many aspects of film, television and music. A few years ago, the
best actor and best male actor awards were always swapped between Michael and Harry. However, ever
since Sophia’s ident, Michael had withdrawn from the entertainment industry, along with Harry. And
so, the award was passed on to others. It was good enough that they were in the top ten spots every
year. With no recent works, they were not as popr anymore.
This year, they both returned to the industry together and their appeal had risen again. This time, they
would surely take first ce! What Maddie meant was to let the two of them take part in thepetition
and convince Michael and Harry to attend the award ceremony to increase the two over-the-hill actors’
poprity.
“It’s all been settled at Sarah’s end. Now, it’s just you!” Maddie’s eyes lit up as she spoke. She knew that
talking to the idols themselves would be of no use and it would be more useful to speak to their wives. In
fact, she grew up watching their movies so she was a super huge fan!
However, Sophia did not immediately agree. Instead, she called Michael to ask for his opinion. Their
current rtionship was a mess. To call them divorced would be untrue, since they asionally slept in
the same bed and would chat intimately on the phone every day. Yet, they were clearly divorced and the
divorce certificate was still rtively fresh…
Before she slept, Sophia video called Michael. He was staying at a small town at the foot of the snowy
mountain, which was an hour’s drive from the film set. The hotel condition he stayed at was not bad but
was not as good as those in Bayside City. Also, it must be freezing at night too.
As soon as the video call connected, Michael excitedly said, “Where’s my daughter? Where’s my little
Carmen? Carmen Fletcher, let Daddy see you!”
As soon as Carmen heard Michael’s voice, she darted into view. “Hi, Daddy!” Carmen leaped onto the
bed and snuggled into Sophia’s arms as she looked at Michael through the screen.
Upon seeing his baby, Michael beamed with joy. Back then when Celine and Justin had an ident,
Nathan’s presence saved him but when Sophia’s ident happened, it was Carmen who gave him the
courage to live.
Excitedly, Carmen told Michael about every little thing that happened at home.
“Corrady is here again! Grandpa even gave it a big kennel!”
“A boy from ss wrote me a love letter! I got a rose from my teacherst week too!”
“Stan came to visit again!”
After reporting everything, Carmen went to get her beauty sleep. Then, Sophia took her phone to the
study and continued talking to Michael.
After seeing his beloved daughter, Sophia wanted to see her three fur babies too. Hence, Michael flipped
the camera and angled it at the dog kennel. In the kennel were three dogs that were all sleeping like
logs. If they weren’t snoring, Sophia would have thought they were dead. That’s odd. In the past, they
would never sleep before eleven. It was only nine right now, yet they were sleeping so soundly.

Just then, Michael exined, “Filming is tiring; everyone’s exhausted, the dogs too. As soon as they
come home, they would not even be able to open their eyes. Sometimes, they would even fall asleep
while eating.”
Sophia was having a hard time believing this and she kept thinking that something was off. However, she
just could not pinpoint it. Then, she told him what Maddie had said. Michael was a regr winner on the
show, yet he never attended the award ceremony. This was making things difficult for the organizing
committee. If she could convince him to attend the ceremony, then the influence of ‘Light of Cethos’
would definitely shoot up.
Shamelessly, Michael said, “You were the one who always canvassed for me in the past. You’re the
reason I’ve always had the highest vote. When you were gone, I was disqualified. As for this year, if you
can canvas for me, I’ll give it a go.”
Sophiaughed, knowing that he would never agree so easily. “Don’t worry; I’ll definitely canvas for you.
If you win, you’ll have to attend the ceremony. I already said yes to Maddie.”
Thinking about it, Michael still refused. “No…. Not unless you let me into bed.”
Upon hearing that, Sophia was speechless.
