Chapter 128
“You despicable person!” I was so angry that I wanted to tear Victoria apart. I couldn’t understand why this person whom I calls mother, who had watched me grow up, had become so repugnant towards me.
Me and Victoria must have been enemies in our previous life. Otherwise, I couldn’t fathom why she treated me this way.
Victoria nonchalantly replied, “Whether I’m despicable or not doesn’t matter, as long as I achieve my goals. Move fast, Sophia. My patience is running thin.”
I was both angry and sad, and Ava’s eyes are becoming red as she took a look at me. Ava was filled
with anger, couldn’t hold back any longer, and spoke coldly, “Mrs. Lopez, are you even human? Sophia is your daughter. How could you do this to her?”
Victoria frowned, “And who are you?”
Angry, Ava retorted, “Who am I? You’ve been threatening to report me, yet you don’t even know who
I am. Let me tell you, don’t go too far. Even a rabbit will bite when cornered. It’s just a letter, do you
really think you have Sophia’s life in your hands?”
“As for sending me to jail, ha! if you have the guts, take the surveillance footage and report me right
at this moment. If you don’t put me in jail today, I’ll make sure you won’t live to see another day.”
Ava’s voice was ruthless and cold, sending shivers down Victoria’s spine.
Feeling guilty, she said, “I won’t talk to you. I’ll talk to Sophia. If such a thing happens again, don’t expect to see her ever again.”
After saying this, she quickly hung up the phone.
Ava was a supreme hacker, and with her expertise, no one would dare to offend her.
This was the first time she had encountered such a shameless and despicable person like Victoria
Lopez.
Ava gripped the phone that had been hung up with a cold and fierce expression.
I still looked somewhat dazed.
Ava calmed down and glanced at me. “Sophia, I’m sorry I was impulsive, but I can’t stand her threats towards you.” She said.

She had been a bit impulsive earlier, but what if she had provoked Victoria and he started burning the letter? After all, that letter held vital importance for me.
I shook my head slightly, “It’s all right, you did the right thing. We can’t be too lenient with her; otherwise, she might use this to threaten me forever. Maybe she really is determined to burn the letter, but based on what I know about her, she won’t easily get rid of something she can use to control me. Don’t worry about the letter; I’m not concerned about that. I’m just worried she might harm you. After all, she has the surveillance footage, and if she really decides to report you…”
Ava’s eyes flickered, and she took her laptop from the back seat. While turning it on and connecting to the car’s mobile network, she asked me, “When was your mother’s study computer installed?”
I mentioned a rough time frame.
Ava typed quickly on the keyboard.
I asked her, “What are you doing?”
Ava operated Sw
and calmly replied, “I can determine the model of his computer by using the
approximate time w
it was installed and the information available online. However, I must clarify that I do not condone hacking or any unethical behavior. It is important to always respect privacy and the law. It is never okay to record surveillance videos without consent, and it is not a reliable way to avoid legal consequences. It is crucial to always act with integrity and avoid putting oneself and others in compromising situations.”
After Ava finished speaking, her fingers stopped.
She glanced at me with a faint smile and said, “With my technical skills, not many people can trace me. Now, you can relax and stop worrying about me.”
I looked at Ava and sincerely praised her, “Ava, you’re amazing.” I couldn’t help but admire my friend’s skills and dedication to helping me in this risky endeavor.
Ava’s face showed no expression, but her words were amusing, “As your friend, I have to be just as impressive as you.” I chuckled at Ava’s dry humor, appreciating the subtle wit that came with our
friendship.
After Ava started the car, she said, “Let’s go, I’ll take you to the hospital first.” I nodded, grateful for Ava’s willingness to help me even further by driving me to safety.
Perhaps the adrenaline and excitement of the night had distracted me from my earlier irritation with Victoria. I couldn’t help but notice the contrast between Ava’s cold demeanor earlier at lunchtime and the supportive, almost cheerful atmosphere our shared now.

Chapter 178
Remembering Ava’s complaints about not being able to see more of Cole at Strakovski Jewelry when she started working there, I playfully joked, “You know what, Ava? If you ever get caught, I’ll make sure Cole bails you out.” I wanted to lighten the mood and show my gratitude to Ava.
Ava was taken aback by my remark, but she responded in a cool tone with a hint of sarcasm, “Is that so? Then, I must have made a mistake and missed the chance to see the director.”
Feeling a sense of camaraderie, I took out my phone and called Cole, “Wait today, I’ll make sure he
comes and sees our Ava today.”
On the phone, my voice became dramatically serious, “Director Hopkins.”
At this moment, Cole hadn’t finished work yet; he was called upstairs while discussing work with
Lukas.
His phone was left on the sofa, and Lukas saw my name on the screen, signaling him to answer.
Hearing my voice, Cole’s brow immediately furrowed, “What’s wrong? Is something happening?”
my tone was serious and earnest, “Here’s the thing, Director. Ava and I got into some trouble, and we’re now at the hospital. We don’t have our cards, and we don’t have enough money to pay for the medical expenses. Can you come over and help us settle the bill?”
When Cole heard the news, he was stunned for a moment, then asked, “Which hospital are you in now? Wait a minute, I’ll be there soon.”
“It’s the Rivers Health Medical Center,” I said, “where Ava was hospitalized the last time.”
Cole hung up the phone and gave Lukas a solemn look. Before he could say anything, Lukas frowned at him and asked, “It’s Sophia, isn’t it? what’s wrong with her?”
