Chapter 891
"I can certainly tell the difference," Sophia said, placing her hands on her hips. "Just like in the Hernandez House, Uncle Joseph, great-grandmother, grandpa, and grandma all genuinely like me. But my paternal grandpa, and the grandmother, great-grandfather, and other relatives on my dad's side don't like me at all."
nbsp;
Joseph was stunned for a moment before he suddenly asked, "You mean your grandpa and the grandparents, uncles, and aunts from the Chamberlain family don't like you?"
nbsp;
"Yes, when Dad took me to the Chamberlain family, they ignored me. One of my cousins even bullied me. It was clearly his fault, but Grandpa made me apologize to him," Sophia said, clenching her small fists.
nbsp;
"Since I was little, I've grown up with Mom. I'm very good at reading people's expressions," nbsp;she then added.
nbsp;
Joseph felt an inexplicable pang in his heart, a pain he couldn't quite describe. "Don't go to the Chamberlain family anymore. If you're bored, come find me."
nbsp;
"No, I don't like Aunt Megan. I know she doesn't like me either." Sophia shook her head decisively and waved her hand. "Uncle Joseph, goodbye."
nbsp;
With that, she hopped nbsp;and skipped back nbsp;into the house.
nbsp;
Joseph watched her back for a long time before taking out his phone and calling the HR department. "Let Liam continue as the general manager of the company."
nbsp;
The HR manager was speechless. "Does that mean Liam won't be going to Yugrot to build the factory?"
nbsp;
"No, I'll arrange for someone else to go." nbsp;Joseph sighed.
nbsp;
Liam had such a precious little daughter. If Liam were sent to a lower position, Sophia, as Liam's daughter, would also be looked down upon. He couldn't allow anyone to bully Sophia.
nbsp;
He just couldn't understand why Marcus disliked Sophia so much. Sophia was his granddaughter. How could grandparents not like their grandchildren? The Chamberlain family was indeed strange.
nbsp;
When he returned to his villa, Rosalind greeted him with a smile. "Mr. Hernandez, when will you bring Miss Brooks back for a visit?"
nbsp;
Joseph's brow furrowed, but Rosalind didn't notice and continued to smile. "I saw in the news that you and Miss Brooks went hiking recently. Have you reconciled? I'm so happy for you."
nbsp;
"We broke up again," Joseph said expressionlessly.
nbsp;
Rosalind was stunned. "How could that be?"
nbsp;
"Don't mention her to me again," Joseph said, striding upstairs.
nbsp;
Rosalind sighed as she watched his back. Perhaps it was for the best. Being with Mr. Hernandez might bring Miss Brooks more suffering.
nbsp;
Once in his study, Joseph immediately closed the door.
nbsp;
He lit a cigarette and thought about what Sophia had said earlier. Did Cassie really never consider using Sophia to threaten him? Would she not harm Sophia?
nbsp;
A trace of confusion appeared in Joseph's eyes.
nbsp;
Just then, Nathaniel entered. "Mr. Hernandez, here are the case files for Spencer."
nbsp;
Joseph was momentarily taken aback, remembering that he had decided to sue Megan and that the relevant documents needed to be submitted.
nbsp;
This time, he and Cassie would meet in court.
nbsp;
Since Cassie cared so much about Spencer, he would personally send Spencer to prison and see how Cassie would fight against him.
nbsp;
After all, Joseph had never lost.
nbsp;
"Mr. Hernandez, you haven't taken a case in many years. Why suddenly... Forgive me for saying this, but no matter who wins this case, you and Miss Brooks will truly become strangers," Nathaniel said, summoning his courage.
