Before Derick could finish his sentence, he started coughing again.
Sophia slightly furrowed her brows, her train of thought undisturbed:
“Didn’t you go to see the doctor?”
“It’s okay, it will be fine soon.
Sophia sighed, called for her private doctor to come over, and then dismissed the hotel staff. She went
to the side and poured a glass of water for him.
The sound of a child calling for daddy echoed again from the bedroom.
She couldn’t help but feel a bit puzzled.
Derick chuckled, walked in and took out his phone, opening the video that Hayden had sent.
“Hayden bought a talking parrot, but the parrot’s previous owner had only taught it two sentences,
which were ‘Where’s daddy, has daddy come back?““”
In an instant, Sophia understood. She watched the green parrot in the video, chirping and repeating
these two sentences over and over again, and couldn’t help but laugh.
“No wonder…”
The doubts in her heart were completely dispelled.
It was really adorable.

Not long ago.
The private doctor had arrived.
He checked on Derick and breathed a sigh of relief:
“Mr. Woodward had a bit of a fever, but he was fine after taking some medicine and resting.”
“Thank you.”
Derick politely nodded his head.
Sophia saw the doctor out, then turned around to watch him coughing with a pale face.
She handed over the medicine, jokingly saying:
“Didn’t expect you to be afraid of seeing a doctor?”
Derick laughed, “I’m also involved in the medical field, so I know that viral colds are cyclical and will
improve within a maximum of seven days, so I’m not worried.”
Sophia: “There’s no need to put yourself through all this!”
Derick gave a bitter smile, spreading his hands and looking at her with deep–set eyes, his head tilted
back.
“But still, thank you for coming, Sophia. Thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn’t know how long I would
have fainted.”
Sophia laughed, “Come on, you rich people value your lives the most.”
She didn’t stay here for long, there were other matters in the company. After giving a few instructions,
she left.
However, she didn’t expect to run into an unexpected person

downstairs.
Ava, wearing sunglasses and a mask, was about to get on the elevator.` being embraced by a bald
man.
Sophia had just gotten off the elevator.
The two sides met face to face like this.
As soon as she lifted her eyes, she recognized Ava in disguise.
The moment Ava saw Sophia, she almost lost her balance, her face changing color.
However, Sophia acted as if she didn’t recognize them, nonchalantly bypassing them and heading
straight for the door to leave.
The next second.
Ava’s legs gave out, and she leaned into the man’s arms.
The man held her tightly, thinking she was somewhat impatient, and firmly kissed her while she was in
his arms.
Ava pushed him away forcefully, touched the mask and sunglasses on her face, they were all right, she
felt a moment of panic.
Would Sophia recognize it?
“What’s wrong? It’s rare that your old man is on a business trip, giving us a chance to go out. Don’t be
a killjoy…”
The man, holding Ava in his arms, began to speak softly into her ear.
Ava paused, composing her expression.
Yes, she wouldn’t recognize it.

I was fully armed, not even revealing my eyes. How could I possibly have been recognized? Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
A sense of relief washed over Ava as she clung to the man’s arm, playfully shooting him a coquettish
glance:
“I’ll look at yours in a moment!”
The moment the two people got on the elevator, they embraced each other and couldn’t stop kissing.
Kamden’s search for a woman was known to all, what did her search for a man count for?
Having had a son and a daughter, Mrs. Clement’s position was secure, she was not afraid of Kamden
divorcing at all.
Thinking of this, Ava went all out, insisting on having a good time!
An hour later.
Sophia sat in the car, watching Ava and the bald man come out of the hotel, the two of them looking as
sweet as honey.
As soon as they stepped out the door, they parted ways, heading east and west respectively, as if they
didn’t know each other.
The speed of change was so fast that even Sophia couldn’t help but shake her head in admiration.
Her eyes twinkled, she curled her lips, and then slowly started the car and left.
The next day.
Sophia received a party invitation from Lydia.
Chapter 119 Strange Sounds
She was somewhat confused, but she still attended the banquet as agreed.
Quite a few people attended this small private dinner party.
Sophia had a hunch that the collaboration might be announced at the party, she went over to greet with
an impassive smile.
Lydia was talking to someone, and when she saw her coming, she went over to greet her with a smile:
“Ms. Cruise, perfect timing, I had some good news to tell you.”
Sophia raised an eyebrow, smiling at her:
“Please clarify, Ms. Ayesa.”
Lydia glanced at the people around her and spoke bluntly:
“The contract for the collaboration was already prepared, we could sign it tonight, but…”
She paused, smiling at Sophia:
“There was also an unexpected delight.”
Sophia was confused.
Lydia glanced back, and quickly, a tall and upright figure arrived in front of her, his aura cold and clear.
He was as cold and deep as usual.
“Mr. Clement proposed a better idea for this project, which I thought was good. Why don’t we
collaborate as three parties? We can definitely make this project better.”
Sophia glanced at Pierce, concealing her inner displeasure.
This incident was so sudden, she surprisingly hadn’t heard any rumors

beforehand.
She glanced at Lydia, without saying a word.
Lydia understood her meaning, stepped forward, and began to speak with a smile:
“Don’t rush, take a look at the contract before you decide.”
She pulled Sophia to a rest area on one side and sat next to her.
Pierce also came along, he sat across from Sophia, his eyes unblinkingly observing her, his brows and
eyes warm and gentle.
Sophia ignored his gaze, looking down at the contract.
The addition of the Clement Group not only brought substantial funds, but also, rather than diluting
Eagle Entertainment’s stake within, it actually became the biggest winner.
The proportion between Pierce and Lydia was relatively balanced, but the Clement Group still took the
lead in terms of capital composition.
Looking at the contract, it was indeed beneficial to all three parties, she had no reason to refuse.
And for the entire project, it could also reach a higher level in terms of financial strength guarantee.
Lydia was sipping her coffee on the side, calmly waiting for Sophia’s decision.
Sophia wouldn’t let money come between her. Her initial displeasure was swept away, she put down
the contract and began to speak with a smile:
“Indeed, Mr. Clement’s actions were truly extraordinary.”
Chapter 119: Strange Sounds
However, the cost might have been several times higher than expected.
If the project had initially been secured by the Clement Group, he wouldn’t have had to put out so much
money.
I could only admit my bad luck then.
Pierce, with a calm and gentle expression, glanced at her:
“It seemed that Ms. Cruise had no objections, Ms. Ayesa, sign the
contract!”
Lydia nodded and clapped her hands, and soon someone brought over the prepared contract.
“Ms. Cruise, I didn’t tell you in advance because I had just made the decision myself.”
“For the sake of the bigger picture, you two should act a bit more friendly later, so as not to give people
the impression that something went wrong with the collaboration.”
Sophia raised an eyebrow, “I understand.”
The smile in Pierce’s eyes deepened.
After the contract was signed, Lydia went to announce the good news to everyone.
Everyone applauded in celebration, then Lydia looked in their direction and said:
“For the opening dance, let’s have Mr. Clement and Ms. Cruise, everyone welcome!”
