At this moment, Sandra forced Mandy to kneel down to get justice for her daughter.
After figuring out what had happened, Maggie said.
"You admit defeat for bet. You don't even have the courage to bet at that time! Poor people like to do
anything that requires dignity and suffering! " She said in a sharp voice and stared at Sophia.
Glancing at her, Sophia suddenly remembered that there was a card in her hand, which was bought for
her by Lucas. She didn't want to take it at all. But she heard that this card couldn't be cancelled and
that her name was printed on it. Because it was designed for her and others couldn't use it, she
reluctantly accepted it. She planned to let it sleep for a hundred years, but she didn't expect it to come
in so soon.
She took a step forward and stood in front of Sandra. "Aunt, in that case, if you lose, you will kneel
down, scold yourself and hit your own lips!"
Hearing that, the corners of Sandra's mouth twitched. She said, "if you can afford it, I will kneel down!"
"Well, in this case, let all the people present give us a witness!" With a thin smile, she took out a black
card from her bag and handed it to the manager. "Please have a look. Can I use it?"
The manager took it and checked it. He smiled from ear to ear immediately. His attitude was better than
before. He beckoned to his men to pack the bracelets and make coffee for them.
The eyes of Sandra and her daughter widened. They were extremely suspicious that if they had come
across the nine star company bead and suddenly traveled to another parallel world.
Mandy showed them the well packaged bracelets, "I've bought them. Don't waste time. Get down on
your knees. My son-in-law will come to pick us up for dinner later."
"Well, don't call that early. It's not the start yet." Hearing that, Sandra could not help but curl her mouth.
She was quite certain that she would be able to help her daughter to take over Lucas.
"Don't change the topic. Kneel down, now!" Mandy waved her hand.
With her hands crossed in front of her chest, she continued, "I won't kneel down. What can you do to
me?" She held her neck high, as if a dead pig was not afraid of hot water.
As far as Mandy was concerned, she knew her so well, let alone acting shamelessly. If she took the
first place, no one on the earth would dare to be the second.
"You are just a toad, not a frog. Besides, keep an eye on your daughter. She is just a woman. Don't
take her luck." Then Mandy took her daughter out of the room. She didn't want to waste time talking
with such a shameless woman.
When they came out from the Sun Golden Square, Lucas' car just arrived. After lunch, Sophia asked
him to drive them to Bluewater Apartment.
"For what?" He asked.
"We'll know when we get there." She smiled mysteriously.
"Bluewater Apartment", a fashion apartment designed for the newly rich people in the city, was
developed by MH Real Estate Company under the ZW Group. Lucas thought she was doing this for
business, but he didn't expect that she would leave him a shelter.
"How about my tiny apartment?" She grinned like a proud lion. She finally had a place in Q City.
"Sophia, why do you want to buy a new house?" Mandy was startled. The house of Q City was
expensive, but the price was incredibly high.
"Mom, after you go back, you can quit the job of being a confinement nurse, move here and live with
me. In this way, you can enjoy the rest of your year." Sophia laughed.
"Mother, don't you like to live in S Garden?" Lucas raised his eyebrows. That Seaview duplex
apartment was specially prepared for Mandy.
"It's too big there. Mother doesn't like it when she lives alone." She smiled and squinted her beautiful
eyes. More importantly, this apartment was the fruit of her hard work. She had always been very
independent and didn't want to rely on anyone, especially Lucas.
However, this kind of estrangement feels a little bit. He is a little unhappy. Why can't she always fully
concentrate on it? Why is she always keeping a lukewarm relationship with him? She didn't want to
marry him, and still went to buy a house without telling him. Isn't his house not enough for her and her
mother?
Back in Bluewater Villa, he poured himself a cup of orange juice, and stood on the balcony, watching
the rolling mountains in the distance with a deep look. He didn't say a word for a long time.
She was good at observing other people's expression.
"Are you blaming me that I asked for an internal price? You have been used to exploiting me, and now
you even pay for yourself?"
Hearing that, Lucas didn't know whether he should laugh or cry. Seeing her sly winking, he knew that
she was making fun of him on purpose. He shook his head and smiled bitterly. "Why didn't you tell me
that you wanted to buy an apartment for mom?"
"Now I'm telling you." She smiled.
"What's the point of buying all these? I want to have a good performance. I don't even have a chance!"
He pinched the tip of her chin.
"My mother likes you very much. Don't worry." She rubbed his handsome face and then went back to
the room. She took out a black card from the room. "By the way, I spent 250 thousand in the morning
and bought a bracelet for mom. So I have to owe you first. When I save enough money, will I return it to
you?"
Upon hearing this, he couldn't keep calm anymore.
"Sophia, is it necessary for us to be so clear about each other?" His eyes lit up.
"Humph, we can split the bill now." She smiled.
"We don't need. I've already connected all my bank accounts with you, and every penny I've given is
yours. You can use it at your will but you don't need to report to me. Do you remember? Don't annoy
me with this kind of thing from now on. I have no time! " His tone was rude and overbearing, with a
direct order that could not be disobeyed and objection.
She pouted and said, "I'm not a parasite. I have hands and feet. I can support myself. Why should I use
your money?"
"Because you are my woman. It's your responsibility and obligation to spend money for me, and you
must fulfill it!" He snapped.
She sighed in her heart.
To be honest, it was not a matter of money, but her self-esteem.
His excellence, to her, was a burden and pressure that allowed her to feel inferior and deepen in her
heart. In her heart, she always held the thought that they were not of the same family. Even if they were
of different backgrounds, she still hoped to catch up with him with her own hard work. But they were
separated by the time of light. Even if she was at a place far lower than supersonic speed, the distance
between them was still far too long. He and she were destined to be far apart from the Milky way all
their lives, and they were destined not to be "equal" all their lives. She had to keep her independent to
prevent her little self-esteem from being hurt.
When she was lost in thought, he put his arm around her shoulder and said, "go to the chamber of
commerce tomorrow evening with me!"
She was stunned. She had never attended any grand occasion with him. If she remembered correctly,
his father was the president of the chamber of commerce. Was he trying to take her to meet his
parents?
When she thought about this, she became nervous. But what she didn't know was that the people she
saw at the dinner party was not only the father of Lucas!
