Chapter 570
“Tsk, tsk… You don’t even know who owns this place, and yet here you are, causing a scene. Solana, it seems I’ve overestimated you.”
Sophie’s words caused Solana’s face to fall immediately.
Bending down, Sophie picked up a piece of glass and sighed theatrically, “Alas… A vase worth tens of thousands is shattered just like that. If I were the owner of this house, I would be furious.”
Sophie took out her phone, pretending to make a call. Solana quickly said, “It’s just a few thousand dollars. I’ll pay it off. The Burke family isn’t short on cash.”
Sophie laughed and said, “Solana, it’s not the Burke family who caused the damage but you. You are part of the Roberts family, so naturally, your family should compensate. Surely, you can’t expect Bea to pay for your mistakes?”
“You…”
“I’ve heard that you mamied a wealthy businessman overseas. A few thousand dollars is nothing to you, probably not even as much as the ring you’re wearing on your finger”
Sophie deliberately flattered Solana, but it only made her uncomfortable, prompting her to cover the ring she was wearing.
From Solana’s reaction, Sophie could tell that the diamond ring was probably a fake. The Roberts family was already a shadow of its former self, and Solana’s arrival happened three years earlier than in her past life, indicating the rapid decline of the Roberts family.
But why was it happening so fast?
Sophie shook her head, not about to ponder these questions any longer. After being disturbed by Solana, she had a headache and just wanted to go back and rest.
Solana said, “Just have the production team send a detailed bill. It’s only a few thousand dollars. I can afford it.”
Sophie saw through Solana’s act but didn’t intend to expose her. Instead, she smiled and said, “Certainly, you can afford it. I was worried for nothing. If you wish to wait here for James, feel free to do so. The production team will probably come to discuss the filming schedule with me soon. Solana, you can also discuss the compensation with them.”
Sensing the sarcasm in Sophie’s words, Solana glared at her and said, “Sophie, don’t think that just because James is protecting you, you can look down on everyone else! I have you know I’m James‘ aunt. Even if I did something to you, James wouldn’t turn against
me!”
Sophie was about to retort, but then, through the window, she saw James returning from the yard. She slightly smiled and then deliberately said, Tm actually quite curious about what you plan to do to me.”
Solana snorted coldly, “Sophie, you asked for this! Seize her!”
“Yes!” The bodyguard immediately stepped forward and grabbed Sophie’s arms.
Solana had long disliked Sophie, and now she raised her arm high, intending to slap Sophie.
However, before her hand could fall, James‘ angry shout came from behind, “Stop!”
Solana realized what was happening. She glared at Sophie. “You did this on purpose!”
Sophie was already unwell, and now her face was even paler than before.
