Anna smiled and said, "Your dad and I talked it over. The White and Ludwig families have so many business ties. We can help you find someone even better. All we want is for you to be happy every day, sweetheart."
"That's right. Your mom and I would never trade your happiness for any kind of benefit," Eric added, sitting beside them.
Both of them were so gentle, and from their tone, it was clear they weren't going to force her into anything.
"Mom, Dad, I really want to handle my own marriage, so please stop worrying about it," Sophia said, sounding a little impatient.
Sophia thought, 'Anyway, Shawn is definitely mine. As for Firefox? I'd take care of her sooner or later.'
Anna didn't scold her. After all, among the elite ladies of Jelonsburg, she was always known for her beauty, grace, warmth, and understanding—a rare breath of fresh air in high society.
From the side, her features were refined and flawless. Even in her forties, she didn't look her age at all. There was even a certain resemblance to Zoe in her elegant looks, completely different from Sophia's fiery personality.
"As long as you're happy, sweetheart, your dad and I will always support you," Anna said gently, while Eric smiled and nodded beside her.
"Anyway, I'll handle this myself. I'm heading upstairs," Sophia said, making up an excuse to leave. But in her mind, she was already plotting how to make sure she'd come out on top.
Just as Sophia stepped back into her room, her phone suddenly buzzed.
Sophia glanced at the screen. It was a call from Joseph.
She quickly picked up. "Grandpa Joseph, is there something you need?"
Joseph sighed. "Sophia, I'm really sorry that Shawn made things difficult for you again."
"Grandpa Joseph, please don't say that. I know it's just because Shawn doesn't like me. It's my own fault." In front of her elders, Sophia still had to play the pitiful card.
Hearing this, Joseph huffed even more angrily, "That brat's been stubborn since he was a kid, and he's only gotten worse as he's grown up. But don't worry, Sophia, in our family, you're the only granddaughter-in-law we recognize."
"Grandpa Joseph, you didn't just call to comfort me, did you?"
"Of course not. Sophia, I called to tell you that just a little while ago, I made a bet with that small-town girl at the press conference.
"Whoever finds the miracle doctor Mr. Lewind first and gets him to cure Amy, the loser has to back out on their own.
"I want you to join the search too. As long as you find Mr. Lewind before she does, she'll have to step aside. Sophia, I called you especially for this. You have to give it your all, okay?"
Sophia's eyes lit up. She was never one to put all her eggs in one basket. Since she'd already made her arrangements, she'd just work both plans at the same time.
That so-called Queen of Mercenaries, Firefox, might be a genius on the battlefield, but when it comes to tracking someone down, Sophia had way more tricks up her sleeve.
If Zoe, that small-town girl, had her own cards to play, Sophia also had. She, the heiress of the White family, wasn't someone to mess with. She believed Shawn would be hers—right in the palm of her hand.
"Thank you, Grandpa Joseph. I promise I won't let you down." As soon as she hung up, Sophia immediately called Samuel.
Samuel sounded surprised when he answered, "Sophia? What's going on?"
"Samuel, I know you have a friend with a killer intel network. Can you help me look into someone? I need to know where he is and how to contact him, right away."
Samuel was a bit taken aback. "Who are you trying to find?"
Sophia replied, "That miracle doctor, Mr. Lewind."
Samuel paused, clearly surprised. "You mean that miracle doctor who's always off the grid? Alright, I'll help you."
After hanging up, Sophia thought, 'Zoe, don't think you're all that just because you're Queen of Mercenaries. I'm not losing to you. Once Samuel finds Mr. Lewind before you do, let's see how you plan to fight me for Shawn. Just wait and see.'
