Chapter 6 Bullying Her Daughter Equals to Courting Death
Chapter 6 Bullying Her Daughter Equals to Courting Death
All people held their breath, standing motionlessly in silence.
When the call was connected, Abbott Lawson was feeding his wife, Laura Woods, with the dishes he
had prepared.
"Long time no see, Mr. Lawson. How have you been?" the Old Riley asked with a smile.
Abbott put away his phone without glancing at it. "Stop beating around the bush, Nathan. You haven't
called me for years. What do you want?"
The Old Riley was taken aback. He answered, "OK. I'll go straight to the point. I heard your son had a
girlfriend named Sophia Lawson. Do you know it?"
"Of course. So?"
The Old Riley could tell Abbott's attitude wasn't good, feeling annoyed. After all, he was the same age
as Abbott's father, hoping Abbott to respect him.
"You must not know her background. Sophia Lawson has no money and is uneducated. She likes
hitting on wealthy men. Years ago, she hit on my grandson because he was rich. Later, she found other
men who were more affluent than my grandson, so she dumped him..."
"Grandpa!" Drake stopped him as he couldn't bear to listen any longer.
The Old Riley glared at him and continued on the phone, "Mr. Lawson, you should know I never talk
bad about others on their backs. For the sake of our families' friendship, I don't want your son to be
deceived. I'm saying those words out of kindness."
Abbott snorted, "Thank you, Mr. Riley. My son isn't too lame to deal with a woman. If there's nothing
else, I gotta go."

Abbott snarled, "I haven't asked him for an explanation. How dare he call me! Have they forgotten how
Drake Riley hurt my daughter?"
Laura sneered, "If Sophia hadn't insisted on getting even with them by herself, I would have broken into
their house and got even with them long ago."
Who had the guts to bully her daughter must have a death wish!
The other side.
The Old Riley looked annoyed. It seemed the Lawson family didn't appreciate his kindness. He decided
to take some action.
"Drake, Sophia Lawson made trouble at my birthday banquet. If she doesn't apologize to our Riley
family in public and to the reporters, she can't blame us for being rude."
"I'm talking to you, Drake. Heard me?" the Old Riley raised his voice and shouted, noticing Drake was
absentminded.
Drake returned to his sense. "Yes, Grandpa."
The following day.
The Riley family posted a video clip to social media platforms. On the screen, Emilia explained like a
victim, "Sophia Lawson is always jealous of me. At college, she pursued Drake and became his
girlfriend for a short while. Later, we learned she had done it for Drake's money."
"In the three years at college, Sophia Lawson relied on Drake's money for her tuition fees and living
expenses. We thought they were truly in love and would get married after graduating, so we didn't
object to them."
"However, in the fourth year, Sophia Lawson dated another man who seemed wealthier than Drake.
Drake hadn't taken over the Riley family's company at that time. When Drake suffered disappointment
in love, I accompanied him all the time. Although he didn't love me, I was willing to help him recover."
"Then he gradually let go of her, and we started dating. After three years, Sophia Lawson appeared
again. Evidently, she must have known Drake had become rich and wanted to reconcile with him. That
was why she deliberately slandered me. No matter what you want to do, Sophia Lawson, I don't care.
I've never done those things, so I won't be afraid of being slandered. Drake and I love each other
deeply, and you won't break us up. We'll get married and have children. We'll be happy."
"Please let go of me and also yourself. OK?"
After Emilia's video was available online, many netizens commented on it and discussed it.
"What a material woman! She doesn't deserve to live in this world!"
"Go to Hell, you material bitch!"
"That material bitch will never go to Heaven. I wish she would never leave Hell."
"She should be punished by law."
Reading the news, Chloe seethed in rage. While retorting to the netizens, she called Sophia, "Sophia,
is Mr. Riley a fool? Even if he asks a technician to identify the video clips, he will know they are not
fake. How could he trust Emilia Lane so much?"
Reading those comments, Sophia felt upset. However, she knew those netizens were stupid and easy
to be misled.
"Will you just tolerate them?"
"Of course not. Think I'm not fully prepared before doing something?"
Her words made sense, so Chloe stopped worrying.
Riley Manor.
Browsing the comments, Emilia could tell all the netizens had taken her side. The previous day, she
was cursed as a whore online. However, she had become a pitiful woman. It was all because of Olivia's
help.
"Thank you, Aunt Olivia. If you hadn't helped me, I wouldn't know what to do."
"Emilia, it's not the end yet. If a technician proves the videos are not fake, your effort will be in vain. The
most important for you now is to make Drake marry you ASAP."
Emilia knew what she meant. However, she had worked so hard for years, but Drake treated her coldly.
Olivia pulled out a pill and pressed it in her hands. "You can use this at the critical moment."
Emilia picked it up and asked in confusion, "What's this?"
Olivia wore a smile. "It's that kind of pill. Do you know how I managed to kick Drake Riley's birth mother
away?"
Emilia thanked her in surprise, "OK, Aunt Olivia. I know what to do now. Thank you so much."
"Good girl! Don't let me down."
...
After finishing work, Drake had dinner with his client. In the restaurant, he saw Sophia having dinner
alone with a single glimpse.
She munched the food elegantly. Drake could tell her dinner cost at least 20,000 dollars from the
dishes on the table. While eating, she watched things on her phone with a smile.
Drake knew what had happened online in the morning. After reading the netizens' curses, he felt
frustrated. However, she didn't seem to be impacted and enjoyed her food.
Somehow, the happier she was, the more upset he became. Drake stood up and walked to Sophia.
Sophia paused. Seeing Drake, she put on a bright smile. "Hi, Mr. Riley."
