Chapter 218

Henry Chamberlain's brow furrowed as his fingers tapped lightly on the desk.

He finally sighed. "Fine. I'll go to the finance department and prepare the transfer documents."

Adrian Valdemar's lips curled into a smug smirk as he shot Sophia Laurent a challenging look.

"Wait." Sophia's voice sliced through the air like a blade.

Henry's hand froze mid-air.

Adrian's face paled, a cold sweat breaking out on his back. "What now?"

Sophia's red lips curved into a smile. "Good guess."

Her bright expression sent a chill down Adrian's spine.

"Henry, ignore her!" Adrian snapped, hopping in agitation.

Sophia spoke calmly. "I don't approve this transfer."

Henry stood rooted to the spot.

"You have no right!" Adrian exploded.

"As Mrs. Valdemar, I do." Sophia twirled a pen between her fingers. "Half that money is mine."

Adrian's face turned livid. "That's my brother's money!"

"And now it's mine too." Sophia lifted her gaze. "Don't forget—I'm also Valdemar Group's acting CEO."

Her cold eyes flickered over the spoiled young heir before her.

Adrian Valdemar, the family's reckless playboy, squandering his days in extravagance.

Now that he'd crossed her path, she wouldn't let him off easy.

Adrian suddenly lunged forward. "I'll kill you!"

Sophia flicked her wrist, sending a leather belt whistling through the air.

Adrian skidded to a halt, his face ashen.

"Watch your language," Sophia said icily.

"Mind your own damn business!" Adrian spat.

Sophia turned to Henry. "Where does his allowance come from?"

Henry blinked. "The Patriarch gives him two million monthly. He also has a supplementary card from Mr. Valdemar with the same limit."

"Four million—gone in half a month?" Sophia arched a brow.

Adrian jutted his chin. "None of your concern!"

Sophia smiled. "From now on, both cards are frozen."

Henry's eyes widened.
