Chapter 136 I Am Not a Member of the Lawson Family
Chapter 136 I Am Not a Member of the Lawson Family
As soon as Drake came, he saw Sophia whispering something to Noah intimately. Drake was
disgruntled, but he didn't show it.
After all, Sophia had abandoned him.
"Mr. Riley!" Someone said.
When the others followed his gaze, they remembered that Sophia was Drake's first love.
Seeing Sophia, Cecelia clenched her fists.Why was Sophia here?
She spent a month making Drake accept her. Why did Sophia show up all of a sudden? How annoying
Sophia was!
Drake turned back and pretended as if he hadn't seen Sophia.
Sophia knew Noah was going to do business with the others, so she walked away. However, she knew
few people here.
When Cecelia was ready to go over, Paula walked in front of Sophia, so Cecelia stopped and looked
towards them.
"Miss Lawson!" Paula said in a low and cold voice.
Sophia, holding a goblet of champagne, gracefully turned her head and looked Paula in the eye. "What
can I do for you, Miss Frost?"
"You approached Noah because Mr. Riley dumped you, right? But do you think Noah really likes you?
No, he is not serious."
Sophia said with an enchanting smile.
"Miss Frost, even if Mr. Greenspan doesn't like you, you shouldn't blame it on me."
Paula was lost for words. She put on a long face and said, "What are you talking about? I'm just trying
to remind you that you are not good enough for Noah at all."
Sophia elegantly took a sip of champagne. "It's none of your business, Miss Frost. You'd better try to
make yourself charming enough to catch Mr. Greenspan's eye. After all, you don't deserve him!"
Paula was even more chagrined by what Sophia said.
"How dare you!" Paula said with a sneer, "I am the daughter of the Frost family. What about you? You
are surnamed Lawson, so you think you are from the Pinkerton Lawson family? Don't be ridiculous!"
Sophia casually shook the champagne in the goblet. "What if I'm really a member of the Lawson
family?"
"How funny!" Paula laughed loudly, noticing that many people were looking over. After all, the women
here all enjoyed gossiping. "Did you hear that, everyone? She even said she was a member of the
Lawson family. It's very funny, right? It's known that the Lawson family doesn't have a daughter. How
dare she say so! She should be happy none of the Lawsons were here. Otherwise, they will give a slap
on her face."
Even Cecelia almost believed what Sophia said. Cecelia was worried that Sophia's identity might pose
a threat to her marriage.
But when Cecelia heard what Paula said, Cecelia got relieved.
Cecelia told herself, "Even if Sophia's surname is Lawson, she has nothing to do with that powerful
family. It's just a coincidence.
Noah was ready to come over but was stopped by Sophia's wink.
When Drake saw this, his eyes darkened.
"You are right. I'm not a member of the Lawson family," Sophia said slowly.
Paula gave a proud smile. Well, then, you'd better get out of here."
Sophia asked calmly, "Do you mean those from an ordinary family should be bullied at will?"
Paula proudly said, "Sophia, you know how powerful the Lawson family is in Pinkerton. Now that you
have nothing to do with them, you don't deserve Noah."
Hearing this, Noah ignored Sophia's wink and came over in anger.
He wrapped his arm around Sophia's waist and looked at Paula, saying,
"No matter who Sophia is, she is the one I must protect. Paula, if you continue offending her, I will show
you no mercy."
"Noah, you..."
Paula didn't expect Noah to be so protective of Sophia.
"Stay away from her!" Noah warned.
Paula bit her lower lip. "Noah, you can't be so cold to me! Mr. Riley dumped this woman, but you
actually bring her here. If your mother knew it, she would be very sad and disappointed."
"You don't have to worry about that. My mother likes Sophia very much."
"What?"
Mrs. Greenspan often dropped by Lawson Manor, so she naturally was very fond of Sophia. She
always said to Sophia, "Sophia, would you like to be my daughter-in-law when you grow up?" This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
Sophia thought it was a joke every time, so she didn't take it seriously.
Paula couldn't believe it. "Noah, you must be lying to me. She doesn't have any powerful background
and has dated Mr. Riley. How could your mother like her?"
"It's none of your concern."
Paula bit her lower lip and kept shaking her head. However, obviously, Noah was taking Sophia's side,
with which she couldn't do anything.
Paula had no choice but walked away, wondering why Mrs. Greenspan could like Sophia. She thought
it was impossible. But Noah looked so serious!
Noah looked at Sophia worriedly. "Sophia, why don't you go over there with me?"
"No, you are talking about business. I don't like it."
Although businesswomen were not rare here, Sophia didn't want to talk with them at all.
"But you..."
Noah knew Sophia was also running a few companies.
"Just go where you are needed. I like being the boss behind the scenes."
Noah was still a little worried. Sophia smiled. "Even if you didn't come over to defend me, I could teach
her a lesson. You should be confident about me!"
Noah nodded. After all, Sophia was a much tougher girl now.
"Okay, I'll come over in time if anything goes wrong."
"Well, go ahead!"
The others could see the importance Noah attached to Sophia.
However, Drake, who was Sophia's ex, was also here.
Many people noticed that Drake kept looking at Sophia, so a man asked, "Mr. Riley, are you still hung
up on your ex?"
Noah, who happened to walk over, frowned when hearing this.
Drake narrowed his eyes. "No, she's just a woman I discarded."
The next second, Noah punched Drake in the face.
"Mr. Greenspan!"
The others were all shocked.
Cecelia ran over worriedly, "Drake, are you all right?"
