Chapter 65Alexander Beaumont.

Lawrence never expected the man to suddenly protect Sofia. However, it seems that the game has become even morecomplicated

“Thank you for your help. Lawrence said.

“Alexander Beaumont is not someone that you can easily intimidate. | tried to replace connections between him and Sofia Lockhart. |expected some shares, secret transactions, or rendezvous, but | couldn’t replace anything. | suspect that this cooperation justhappened a few months back.”

Lawrence narrowed his eyes. “A”“That is a possibility. Again. | wasling me that the one who reported Dr. Mulach might be him and not Eulanda?”

je to replace anything else noteworthy. However, the man had access to more information, especially outside of this country. It wouldnot surprise me that he would use this so Sofia Lockhart would trust him and work with him.

Now that Lawrence thought about it. Eulanda seemed busy overseas! He assumed that this was Eulanda’s work and alwaysunderestimated Sofia! It turns out someone else was working with Sofia!

“Why do you think he is doing this?” Lawrence asked. This was something that confused him. The man literally has everything.He could get any business or woman that he wanted. So... why? What is he getting out of this cooperation?

That | do not know.”“Do you think Daniel knew?” Lawrence asked.“Probably not.

Lawrence pursed his lips. He never heard of any rivalry between the brothers. Their relationship seems to be decent. Alexanderhad been giving Daniel some projects abroad. But then again, he doesn’t know what has been happening inside the Beaumontfamily.

“Very well... thank you for this information.”“And here is what | have against Eulanda. “William smiled as he handed him a smaller envelope.

Lawrence opened it. Almost immediately, his expression changed. “This is...” Inside the envelope were images of Eulanda and ayounger man-a man who looked like he was still in his forties. Tan, is tall, and muscular.

He narrowed at it.

For some reason, the man looked a little familiar.

“Isn’t he someone working for her?” he asked.

“Her bodyguard... A married one. He’s been working with her for years, and she had grown protective of him.”

The images were not exactly something that could cause a scandal. There was another image of Eulanda accepting the handthat the guard offered while she was getting out of her car. There was another where the bodyguard was using his hand toprotect Eulanda’s face from the sun.

There was another one with Eulanda wearing a swimsuit in a pool; his bodyguard was applying some sunscreen on her back.Aside from this, there were many images of her talking and laughing with him.

“These images are not-

They have been very discreet.” William said.

“Do you think this is enough to bring her down? You know how easy it is to sway public opinions these days. Lawrence said.

“Indeed.” William easily agreed. “Those are not enough to cause a scandal, but they would raise some eyebrows. If we usethose images and then this “William handed him another folde-a bigger one. He opened it, and his expression immediately lit up.

“Simone Flaire had properties all over the world?” The name of the bodyguard is Simone, and it seems that he has many assetsunder his name! This “Do you think this is-

“How else would he be able to afford all those things?” William storted. “So far.. those are the only things that we were able todig: however. | believe Simone could have even more things under his name. Perhaps things that he is not even aware of like abank account in Switzerland

ompany, or many more. William offered him a smile. This is something thatcould ruin Eulanda’s name.”

Lawrence nodded. An older womans actually using the money of the company to sustain her boyfriend's lifestyle! Isn’t thatsomething very attractive in the eyes of the public? However, this isn’t the East! This is the US.

Most businessmen don’t actually care about propriety. All they care about is money. So what if she likes younger men? So what ifshe’s paying him?

He needed to be careful about this matter as he did not want to shoot his own foot.

will take care of things. Lawrence said. Despite this not being able to cause a scandal, it is still something that he could use todecrease Eulanda’s influence inside the company! “If there is nothing else, then | will take my leave

“Hmmm do not forget my other shares...”“Min will take care of it. Lawrence smiled. “To another happy cooperation.”

The moment he got into his car, Lawrence examined the documents and the images again. It seems that they were taken a longtime ago. This meant that William already had them even before Lawrence approached him

It seems that the old man really wanted revenge on the Lockhart FamilyLawrence smiled. Yes. He needed to use the hatred of the old man for his own goals.

“I need you to schedule a meeting with Mr. Digorry tomorrow. Lawrence is now prepared. He is now going to start slowlyswallowing the company from the inside. Lawrence had no choice but to make some changes to his previous plans as Sofia wasworking with someone that is not Eulanda. “Make it discreet

“Yes, sir, Min answered.

When Sofia woke up the very next day, it was already noon. She jolted up; her mind was a little sluggish but it was betterthan before she fainted.

Right!

She fainted!

How did she-Alexander! He was there! He caught her when she fell!

Memories of his smell filled her senses. The softness of his voice echoed inside her head just before she lost consciousness.2/3

It seems that he really was there to save her. A smile appeared of her lips as she got out of the bed

Then her expression changed.

She was already wearing her pajamas! For some reason, this made her face hot. She quickly calmed herself down. What if itwas actually Jenny who changed her clothes? Or Alexander’s mail?

She opened her phone and saw a message from Karina, asking to meet her ASAP. After a quick response telling her that shewould be available this afternoon. Soha went to the bathroom to clean up before walking out of the room.

To be honest, she expected to replace Alexander in his study, but he was not there.Did he leave?

Sofia scolded herself inwardly.

What was she expecting? The m

smpany to run!

That was when she thought she heard some grunting,

Grunting

She frowned and followed the grunts into another room, which she quickly realized was the gynt room. Sofia pecked into theroom, and there he was. Alexander was wearing headphones, completely immersed in his workout. He was doing pull- ups, eachmovement showcasing his incredible strength. His body was lean and muscular, something that Sofia predicted.

Her eyes lingered on the defined muscles, and for a moment, she forgot why she had entered the room. The rhythmic grunts andthe flexing of his arms held her attention. Unconsciously, she bit her lip, feeling a warmth spreading through her..

Suddenly realizing she was intruding on his private moment, Sofia cleared her throat to announce her presence. Alexanderturned, his headphones hanging around his neck, and a surprised expression crossed his face when he saw her standing there.“Hey Sofia smiled.

Instead of saying a word, he stopped what he was doing and strode towards her.

Seeing him glistening with sweat somehow made Sofia panic. She took a step back, but he quickly caught her arm. “Careful.” heuttered. “I’m sweaty.”

“Huh?” Sofia blinked. What does that mean, exactly?3/3
