The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 2854

When Sophie heard Cadfan clearly saying everything that she was thinking in her heart in such a straightforward manner, she could not help but sigh as she thought to herself, 'It is really worry-free to be talking to a smart and intelligent person. We are all masters who can just nod in a word, and it really saves us the trouble of having to go through the process of beating around the bush.'

So, Sophie did not continue hiding her true motives, and she spoke up, "You're right. I'm trying to fight for some compensation for my mother and 1.1 think that this is what we deserve."

As she spoke, she also added another sentence, "By the way, I'm not just seeking compensation for my mother and I, but I'm also demanding compensation for my dad's share! I heard that my father has disappeared like my second uncle. He disappeared because he was getting things done on behalf of the Schulz family. So, he also deserves a certain amount of compensation as well!"

Cadfan spoke up and asked her, "Sophie, don't you know anything about your father's disappearance? He disappeared when he was in Aurous Hill, and I feel that his disappearance is actually very much related to that benefactor of yours."

Sophie denied it as she said, "I do not know exactly how my father went missing. I only know that the reason why he came to Aurous Hill was because he wanted to help the Schulz family negotiate a collaboration with a Japanese businessman."

Cadfan sighed and said, "Your father did go to Aurous Hill to negotiate a collaboration with Ito Yahiko from the Ito family in Japan. However, he had disappeared and gone missing before he had even met up with Ito Yahiko. Moreover, everything was simply inseparable. Before he disappeared, he used his authority to transfer one hundred million US dollars from the family funds to an unknown overseas account. I suspect that he might have been kidnapped." 3

As he spoke, Cadfan asked again, "Do you really know nothing about this matter? Is it because you've never asked your benefactor about it, or is it because he did not tell you about it at all?"

Sophie said indifferently, "He did not tell me about it before. However, I think that he does not have any reason to target my father at all. After all, my father has never offended him. Moreover, my father had nothing to do with the fact that my mother and I had encountered danger this time." 1

When Cadfan heard these words, the expression on his face suddenly turned very ugly.

'Sophie is saying that Sheldon has never offended her benefactor before. That is because Sheldon was not directly involved in the incident where Sophie and her mother were faced with danger. Isn't she indirectly using her words to pinpoint me directly, then?' 3 'According to what she means to say, in other words, I'd have already offended her benefactor because I was the one who planned Helen's assassination, right? Then, does that mean that he is already preparing to deal with me?!'

Sophie's words contained a faint and vague threat, and this caused Cadfan to suffer from a headache.

However, Cadfan did not dare to offend Sophie directly now.

After all, he was planning to mend his relationship with Sophie first before trying to replace a way to replace out the true identity of her benefactor.

If he could give Falco some clues so that Falco could use some metaphysical means to finish Sophie's benefactor off, Cadfan would be able to solve this problem once and for all in the future.

So, his tone was filled with compromise as he said emotionally, "Sophie, what you're saying is right indeed. I have let both you and your mother down. As for your father, he only met with a mishap because of the Schulz family. I really do have to compensate and make it up to the three of you..."

As he spoke, Cadfan then said, "Sophie, what kind of compensation do you want? Go ahead and tell me. As long as I can do it, I'll certainly agree to it!"

Sophie originally did not want to make any sort of deal with Cadfan.

She did not care about money, and it was not easy for her to be able to forgive Cadfan for what he had done. She might not even be able to forgive him for everything that he had done for the rest of her life. 2 However, ever since Charlie had asked her to become the head of the Schulz family within three years, she had changed her mindset.

In the past, she would not fight, grab, or take the lead in the family. But now, she was going to change her ways.

So, she asked Cadfan, "The reason why my father wanted to meet with Ito Yahiko must have been because of the ocean shipping business, right?" 2

"Yes," Cadfan replied calmly. "Our ocean shipping business has already been stopped now because the higher-ups have a lot of dissatisfaction with the Schulz family. So, they have refused to loosen up during this time. Your father wanted to transfer all of our ships and resources to Japan so that we can use the Japanese company's shipping license as well as route resources and terminal resources to continue operating this business. Unfortunately..." 2

Sophie spoke up at this time, "How about this, then? I want the Schulz family to transfer this business over to me. In the future, I'll be fully in charge of all the Schulz family's ocean shipping business, and I'll be in control of all of the relevant resources too." s
