The Rebirth Of SOPHIA GREEN - Chapter 208

Bridget married Grey, one of the heirs of the Cooper Group. There were two successors in the Cooper family. The other one was Grey’s elder brother, George. Victor was the only grandchild of the Cooper family and was loved by his grandfather. It was said that the grandfather intended to leave all the property to Victor.

That was not what George wanted. But he lost the ability to have a child to compete with his younger brother because of his early excesses. If he did nothing, he might lose his share of the property.

How could this man, who had been used to a life of dissipation, bear life without money?

That was why Elma believed that George was the most likely person to hurt Victor. But he could not do it himself. If he were found out, it would be impossible for him to inherit the inheritance. Therefore, he would certainly hire someone to do it.

And Beck must be the one hired by him.

Sophia believed that Elma’s analysis was reasonable and that George was suspicious. But since Beck would not admit it, and there was no evidence, there was no way to convict him.

Elma continued, “My father had asked someone to investigate George and protect Victor, and nothing happened for half a year. But… I didn’t expect this to happen again. Sophia, please! I think only you can protect him.”

Sophia said, “Don’t worry. I will protect him.”

The one who tried to hurt Victor was trying to create accidents to shirk responsibility and would not attack him blatantly. So all she had to do was watch out for any “accidents” that might happen to Bridget. Only then the killer would not succeed.

When Sophia hung up, Albert said, “You said Bridget was… Grey’s wife?”

Sophia nodded, “Yeah. What’s wrong?”

Albert said, “He’s my friend. But I haven’t seen his wife or son. I didn’t expect the kid you saved was his son. Thank you!”

He didn’t have many friends, and Grey was one of them. Grey was a bit silly, sometimes, but quite honestly. That was why Albert wanted to be friends with him. As the son of the richest man, it was not easy for Albert to have a true friend. Almost everyone came for his money.

The two had been out for some time. Sophia was worried about Bridget. Although it was safe for her to stay in the hotel, the killer was hiding in the dark, and no one knew what he would do next.

When they got back to the hotel, Sophia went to Bridget at once. Seeing that both Bridget and Victor were fine, she was relieved. She checked the room to see that there was no chance of an accident and then left.

It was dark, and Sophia called Bridget for dinner. Benjamin showed up then and insisted on joining them. He claimed that he forgot to take with his wallet, and Albert, his employer, should be responsible for his food.

Albert didn’t mind it. Anyway, with Bridget and Victor there, he wouldn’t be alone with Sophia even if he got rid of Benjamin. Benjamin did well during the day. So he didn’t mind treating him.

They had dinner in a restaurant nearby and then went back. Albert was worried that there would be an accident in the long run and planned to go back with Bridget and her son the next day. For that, he asked Sophia’s advice.

Sophia agreed though she wanted to stay here for more days. She was also worried about the safety of Bridget and her son. In this unfamiliar place, there were strangers everywhere, and there might be an “accident.” Accidents like jellyfish were really impossible.

Albert knew that Sophia would agree. When he got back to his room, his phone rang.

It was from Grey.

“I heard your wife saved my wife and son.” Grey was very excited. “Thank you for finding such a good wife!”

“She was not my wife yet,” said Albert.

Grey said, “Sooner or later. You only chase her. You’ll get her. No… She’s the second one. You chased a girl named Sophia when you worked as an assistant in Glinton. Do you love the name Sophia? I know Sophia. How about I introduce her to you?”

Albert frowned, “Seriously, what’s the matter?”

Grey realized that it had gone far, and hurriedly said, “I am abroad now. I just booked the ticket and can return to Lands City tomorrow morning. Before that, you have to take care of my wife!”

Take care? Why did that sound so strange?

***

The next morning, Albert received a call from Grey, who sounded quite sad, “Albert, my dad fell ill last night. He’s critically ill. Please send my wife home as soon as possible so that my father can see Victor before he…? Victor is the one he misses most. Please tell her to hurry. The doctor says he may leave at any time…”

Then his voice choked.

Albert had booked tickets for Bridget and Victor last night and planned to leave early this morning, but he didn’t expect such a thing to happen.

“Don’t worry. We’ll set out right now and probably get to Lands City by noon. I’ll take them to the hospital as soon as we arrive.” Albert hung up and walked out of the room to see Bridget.

Bridget got up early. In fact, she couldn’t fall asleep because of the incident. She was so afraid that someone would hurt Victor again that she watched him all night and made sure he would not be out of her sight.

In addition, she received a call from Grey late at night and heard that her father-in-law was dying. She was so worried and afraid that she couldn’t fall asleep.

“Pack up, huh? We’ll set out later. Let’s have some breakfast now. Then we can go to the airport.” Albert said, “I’ll get Sophia.”

Sophia knocked on the door at this time and said, “No, bother. I’m ready. We can leave at any time.”

While then, Benjamin came and laughed, “Don’t forget me. I’m going with you.”

“Won’t you stay here any longer?” Sophia asked.

She and Albert needed to protect Bridget and had to leave in advance. But Benjamin didn’t need to leave so early.. He could stay here for a few more days.
