Chapter 106 âJust Who Are You?â
Sophia stared blankly at Olivia, the smile on her face about to fall apart.
âAnd you are?â Gavyn asked as he looked at the uninvited fatherâdaughter pair in confusion.
Finished Trying his best to flatter the Sullivan family, Frank said âHello, Iâm the director of Quinn Enterprises. Iâve previously discussed the Lygon project with your director.â
The Sullivan Group was immensely powerful, and he dreamed of his small company hitching a ride with them.
Gavyn was upset to hear this. âIâm sorry, this is a family gathering. If youâd like to talk about work, please donât disturb us at this time.â
Upon hearing this, Sophia clenched her fists behind her back. If this is a family gathering, whyâs Olivia allowed to sit here?
Frank felt embarrassed but was unwilling to let the opportunity slip. He immediately said, âMr. Gavyn, this must be a misunderstanding. Iâm not here to talk about work. I just heard your son transferred to St. Rona Academy and happens to be my daughterâs schoolmate. Since they know each other, I came to say hello.â
As he spoke, Frank pushed Sophia forward. It was because Sophia had claimed to know the Sullivan familyâs son that he eagerly came to build his network.
Gavynâs initially displeased expression warmed up slightly. Since his daughter had recently been saved by Olivia, another student from St. Rona Academy, he had a favorable impression of people from that school. When he heard that Olivia was acquainted with his son, he loosened up his attitude toward her.
Noticing the shift in Gavynâs expression, Frank breathed a sigh of relief in his mind. He knew his daughter was goodâlooking, and if she could get close to Hudson, it would be ideal.
âOlivia, is she also a classmate of yours?â Valeria asked with a smile.
Seeing the elegant and noble Valeria treating Olivia so well, disbelief filled Sophiaâs eyes. How can someone like Olivia, a poor and plainâlooking girl, catch the attention of the Sullivan family?
Capitalizing on their liking to Olivia, Sophia spoke up before Olivia could respond, âMrs. Sullivan, Olivia and I are very close friends. When she transferred to the academy, I was the one who helped her get familiar with the campus.â
Sophia moved next to Olivia, pretending to be her best friend.
Olivia wiped her mouth and didnât even bother to look up. âJust who are you?â
The smile on Sophiaâs face vanished instantly. She never expected Olivia to pretend not to know her!
Hudson, initially reluctant to expose Sophiaâs claim of being a âfriendâ due to being acquainted with Olivia, couldnât help but feel amused after hearing Olivia speak up.
âMom, Dad, I donât know this young lady either,â Hudson said.
Hudsonâs words were like a row of bombs detonating in Sophiaâs mind. She never imagined things would turn out this way.

Gavyn immediately frowned at Sophia.
Finished Sweat began to drip down Frankâs forehead. Whatâs going on?Didnât Sophia say sheâs good friends with Hudson? Whyâs Hudson now claiming not to know her?
âUh âUh... could this be a misunderstanding?â Frank wiped the sweat off his face. He had planned to use this opportunity to network with the Sullivan family, but now...
Sophiaâs expression grew increasingly unpleasant. The Olivia she used to know had always obeyed her every word, but since her return, Olivia seemed like a completely different person. Furthermore, Olivia had just embarrassed her in front of the Sullivan family!
