When Logan called up lan, he was already on the way here.

While dropping by at the company just now, lan had bumped into Sean, and both of them were chattering about for a moment.

In a nutshell, Sean was explaining to lan the incident regarding Simon and Sally.

Not long ago, both of them were caught red-handed for using the company's name to invest in some other company. Furious, Bryce felt that both Simon and Sally were playing tricks.

Hence, both had their authorities reduced. With that, Sean deliberately asked lan to help him out by taking up some of the responsibilities.

Obviously, lan knew of Sean's underlying intention-Sean was attempting to redirect the fire toward him.

Since Simon and Sally had been punished, their responsibilities had fallen into Sean's hands.

Considering they would think of all ways to gain back their authority, Sean would surely be targeted.

However, by distributing some of the tasks to lan, Sally and Simon, who didn't like lan from the start, would choose to target him instead of Sean.

While they were focusing on targeting lan, Sean, on the other hand, could focus on settling half of the responsibility given to him.

By then, the die would've been cast-the authority given to lan would likely be returned to Sally and Simon, while Sean still got to hold his own share of authority. Clearly, Sean was only taking advantage of him.

However, lan was not a fool to fall for such a trick. With a smile, lan turned down the offer and said that he could barely cope with his current responsibility.

True enough, lan was overwhelmed with his current work and couldn't handle more.

Hearing that, Sean didn't insist and told lan to take things slowly.

Leaning against the car, lan picked up Logan's call and was told to drop by Jefferson Mansion.

Hesitated, lan was wondering whether it was appropriate. No doubt, he was close with Logan, but he had yet to step in Jefferson Mansion.

He had also met the four Young Ladies of the Jefferson Family, but it was only a nodding acquaintance.

Besides the fact that they weren't that close to begin with, lan was uncertain whether they would look down on his identity.

When lan was still absorbed in his thought, Logan concluded, "All right already! Since you're on the way, we might as well go to my place together. That's settled! Sophia and I will be waiting for you at her place."

Saying that, Logan hung up the phone.

Punching on his forehead, lan slowly put down his phone.

Meanwhile, when Logan was entertaining himself downstairs, Sophia was upstairs having a quick wash and putting on light makeup.

Just then, Sophia figured she couldn't visit empty-handed, but it was too late for them to buy something along the way.

Walking down the stairs, Sophia gazed at Logan and said, "I'm telling you now. The gifts I'm about to bring to your place, those were given to me by Matilda. I don't have time to buy any gifts." Surprised for a moment, Logan waved his hands and said, "You don't have to bring anything over. We're a family, so there's no need for such formalities."

Having said that, Sophia still went up to one of the rooms to pick up a couple of gifts. "I don't need it anyway. You reckon these will be fine?"

All these were indeed good stuff, but Logan's family probably didn't lack any of it.

Anyhow, Sophia thought she might as well still bring something over. "I'll bring these, then."

While waiting for lan to arrive, they placed the gifts into Logan's car.

With Logan driving, they passed by Sophia's shop on the way. Casting a quick glance at the shop, the workers were still around, and Sophia noticed that the renovation was almost done from the outside, leaving only the interior parts to be completed.

Taking in a deep breath, Sophia felt inexplicably excited, as she was about to start her own business very soon.

As soon as they arrived at Jefferson Mansion, Sophia was taken aback upon getting out of the car.

How immeasurably rich was the Jeffersons? In the garden, there were artificial hills, fountains, and even a fish pond.
