Chapter 46 

Damian snorted, “Yeah. It seems that we have underestimated them.” 

He thought, ‘I always thought that as long as we keep Daisy and her son away from the company, we won’t be threatened by them. 

‘It’s only now that I realize they still outshine me, even if they’re not as brilliant as they used to be. “They are a big problem to me as long as they are still holding the company’s shares. 

Damian said, “I need to send my people to keep an eye on Daisy and Roger from now on.” His eyes were cold. 

Jasmine narrowed her eyes and replied, “Perfect. Keep an eye on them! We can’t give them a chance to make a comeback!” 

Jasmine thought, “They won Norman’s favor today. I’m afraid they will probably do whatever they want at home from now on. 

‘In that case, will I still hold any standing in this family? 

Just thinking about it annoys me. I will never let Daisy take the upper hand!” 

While Jasmine was immersed in negative emotions, Sophie and Roger appeared more at ease, relishing the banquet. 

Sophie and Roger sat at a small table, drinking coffee and having dessert, with Daisy sitting beside them. 

Daisy thought, “Thanks to Sophie, my son and I can earn the limelight at today’s banquet.” 

Thus, Daisy sat down and praised, “Sophie, you’re a lifesaver for Roger and me today. We are so lucky to have you with us today. Otherwise, they will make fun of us again.” 

In the past, Daisy didn’t think much of it, but now, she did not want her daughter–in–law to be humiliated. 

Sophie said calmly, “It’s nothing. I just prepared a gift.” 

Roger responded, “That painting costs tens of millions of dollars. Even if you have the money, it’s not something you can purchase easily. What you did was generous, yet you remain so humble.” 

Sophie’s heart skipped a beat when she heard Roger’s words. 

She focused on embarrassing Jasmine and earned some pride. Thus, she forgot to make an excuse to explain to Roger. 

After thinking for a while, Sophie explained, “Actually, I didn’t spend much money on it.” 

Chapter 46 

She thought, I’m telling the truth because I’m the creator of that painting. I didn’t spend a cent on 

Roger asked, “Oh? If you didn’t spend much money, then how did you get the painting? After all, Damian and Humphrey sent people to keep an eye on it and failed to get it.” He asked questions. aggressively with a calm expression. 

“Well…” Sophie was at a loss for words. 

She thought, ‘Roger is a smart person. I won’t be able to fool Roger with a randomly made–up lie: Therefore, she sighed and accepted the situation, saying, “Actually, I know the person in charge of the Bel Foundation.” 

Roger narrowed his eyes and continued, “The Del Foundation is in Baytara. It’s far away from here. You barely went out when you lived with the Bourn family. How did you contact the person?” 

Sophie sighed helplessly and answered, “Because I was disabled. I often received funds from The Del Foundation. I tried to contact them after learning that your grandpa likes that painting. Otherwise, where do you think I got the appraisal report and handwritten letter?” 

Sophie thought, ‘Why did Roger use his smart on me?‘ 

Roger still did not buy it and was going to ask further. However, Daisy interrupted Roger and said, “Alright, Roger. Stop being so suspicious. Why would Sophie lie to us? We’re family. You have to believe in your wife.” 

Roger smiled when he heard that and decided to let Sophie off for now. He replied, “Got it. Sophie, I asked those questions because I want to know how much you spent. I’ll transfer the money to your account later. After all, it’s my grandpa’s birthday banquet. I can’t let you bear such a huge cost.” 

Sophie immediately felt awkward. 

She thought, ‘It turns out that Roger wants to give me money. I’m so regretful for saying I didn’t spend much money on it. 

It was not appropriate for Sophie to charge Roger too much since they were a family now. Therefore, Sophie squeezed out a smile and extended one finger to Roger, saying, “I got a discount from the foundation. I only spent 1 million dollars.” 

She murmured inside, ‘If I sell my painting to collectors, I will make tens of millions of dollars. 

‘I million dollars. I’m offering a huge discount. I think I should have asked for more! 

Roger raised his eyebrows. After a moment of silence, he said, “You’ve put in a lot of effort. I’ll transfer 2 million dollars to you.” 

Sophie was a little flattered when she heard that. She asked, “Are you serious?” 

She thought, ‘Roger is quite generous. I asked for 1 million dollars, and he doubled it.” 

Chapter 46 

Roger responded, “Absolutely, I’m serious.” Despite having to pay 2 million dollars, he considered it a good deal, knowing that Sophie’s painting was worth more than the amount. 

“Thank you, Roger!” Sophie accepted it with joy, pondering. “The more money I have, the better. I have many things I want to do. 

Daisy was satisfied to see her son was so thoughtful. She looked at Sophie and said, “Roger is right. You’ve put in a lot of effort. If you hadn’t prepared well today, Jasmine would have insisted that your painting was fake.” 

Jasmine was unscrupulous in slandering Sophie. She would ignore the Nicholls family’s reputation if she could attack Sophie. 

Sophie smiled nonchalantly and replied, “Jasmine is best at slandering. I’ve already anticipated her move. Of course, I have to prepare a plan to deal with her. Daisy, don’t worry. No one can make things difficult for me.” 

Daisy nodded and felt Sophie was a brave and resourceful girl. 

At this moment, several CEOs came over to socialize. 

Samuel Williams walked to Daisy and introduced himself, “Hello, Mrs. Daisy. I’m Samuel Williams, CEO of Phoenix Productions. Do you remember me?” 

“Hi. I’m Zachary Houghton. Director of Moonlight Real Estate.” 

“I’m Otto Holden. Nice to meet you.” 

Daisy found it difficult to adapt to their initiatives. “Hello. Good to see you.” 

years. 

In the past, Daisy socialized with the CEOs of these companies with her husband, but in recent 

she and her son had been invisible at the banquet. She did not expect someone to take the initiative to greet her this year. 

Seeing that Daisy was nervous, Sophie picked up her glass and stood up to help Daisy out. “Mr. Williams, Mr. Houghton, and Mr. Holden. Nice to meet you.” 

Seeing Sophie, the three of them immediately laughed and praised Roger, “Mr. Roger, you’ve married a good wife. We s 

it just now. She can get Sophian’s divine artwork. It can be seen that her connections and financial resources are considerable.” 

They approached Daisy with compliments after witnessing Sophie’s thoughtful gesture for Norman and Norman’s positive response. They believed that Norman had reconsidered and now valued Roger and Daisy more, given Sophie’s ability to bring happiness to Norman. 

“Thank you, Mr. Houghton, but your judgment is wrong. I don’t have many connections or financial resources. It’s all thanks to Roger and the Nicholls family.” With that, Sophie gave the credit to Roger. 

When they heard that Roger was the mastermind, no one dared to look down on this blind man

anymore. Zachary raised bis glasses to Roger and said. “Mr. Roger, I believe you will live a successful life and become somebody. Here’s my toast to you. 

“Here’s my toast to you, Mr. Roger!” 

The three of them raised their glasses to Roger. 

However, Roger did not look at the three of them. His eyes were unfocused as he looked straight ahead. Then, he raised his wine glass and said to the three of them, “Thank you for your blessings.” 

With that, Roger downed the glass in one gulp. 

The three CEOs also finished their drinks. After that, they talked with Roger for a while. 

The three CEOs were quite loud, causing many people to come over to greet Roger. Soon, Roger and Sophie had more people around them than Damian and Humphrey had. Seeing Roger and Sophie become the focus, Jasmine gritted her teeth angrily. 

Jasmine cursed. “It’s all because of Sophie! That little bitch! Now Roger’s family is getting the 

attention!”
