Chapter 608 the Cause of the Old Riley's Death
Sophia asked Drake when Bonnie went out to play, "Why did Grandpa have the second will?"
"The lawyer told me that Grandpa wanted to give Rashad a chance. He would have everything if he
worked hard and kept himself in line. But it turned out that he had other axes to grind. So, he couldn't
take charge of the Riley family."
"I once thought Grandpa was too old to keep his mind clear, or he was too partial to Rashad, or he
made the will under the threat of Rashad and Lily. But, they weren't true," said Sophia.
She didn't have a very good impression of the Old Riley but she still believed he was something since
he could manage the Riley family so well.
"Right. Have you found out the cause of his death?"
Drake nodded.
"What was it?"
"Grandpa was too mad and agitated, which has caused his death. Rashad and Lily didn't murder him.
Probably, they regretted that Grandpa had died so soon."
Sophia sighed with relief, "Good that they didn't kill Grandpa. But I don't quite understand why he gave
me so much of the Riley family property."
"Because he felt guilty. In so many years, he thought he owed you, and my mother, a lot."
Sophia recalled what had happened before and knew the Old Riley was very proud. He had apologized
to her, but still felt sorry that he hadn't made it up to her. So, he was thinking of her till the end of his
life. It was all gone. Sophia had let go and moved on.
Drake looked at her seriously and asked, "I wanna ask you something, dear."
"Yes? What is it?" Sophia looked at him with confusion and guessed what he meant.
"Now I'm in charge of the Riley Group again. Do you want me to work as the CEO in the company or
go back to you and Bonnie as a stay-at-home husband like before?"
"It's all up to you. We'll support you no matter what your decision is," Sophia looked him in the eyes
and said.
"Actually, I prefer to stay at home to take good care of you and Bonnie. But the problem is that I can't
find anyone to take over the position. So, I..."
Sophia held his hand and interrupted, "Drake, my love. Don't ask me this again if you don't want the
Riley Group to collapse. After all, you and Grandpa have devoted a lot of time and energy on it. Don't
ever talk about it again unless you've found the real heir... "
Suddenly, Drake's eyes brightened up, "Yep. I think I've found the real heir!"
"Who?" asked Sophia curiously.
"Bonnie!"
Sophia shook her head, "Oh come on! Please cut her some slack! She's gonna inherit your Underworld
Kingdom and take over the company. She'll be stressed out and exhausted. I don't want her to have a
life like that."
"What will we do then?" Drake seemed to be deep in thought.
But Sophia knew he was leading her to say something. She looked helpless and blurted out, "You have
my word. I'll give you more children."
"No. Having babies hurts a lot. You can't do that again."
"Where can we get the heirs if we don't have babies? Or you want Aria's children to do it?"
"It might work!"
"But Paul's children have to take the family name of Riley. It's inappropriate!"
"We can't count on Rashad now. I thought I was done having babies when he came back to the family. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
But it didn't work that way." Drake looked at her and said.
"I can't have babies in the coming three years. Let's do it later. We must have heirs for the family
business and properties. It's not up to discussion. We must have babies."
Drake held her in his arms and said, "Sophia, thanks. How I wish I could have babies."
Sophia looked at him closely, "Don't worry. I'm willing to have many babies with you!"
Drake heard it and kissed her immediately.
Bonnie happened to see it when she came back from outside.
The babysitter tried to get her out of there but Bonnie didn't want to leave.
Instead, she said with a smile, "Papa and Mommy love each other. I wish I could marry a husband like
Papa!"
The babysitter smiled as well.
Rashad had stayed in hospital for a couple of days and felt much better. But so far, Drake hadn't
allowed him to see Lily.
Lily had visited many times but Drake's men didn't buy it no matter how she had tried.
Rashad had also tried some means, but it didn't work, either.
Drake and Sophia dropped by the hospital and went up to his bed together.
Rashad looked up at them, "I'm a freaking loser now! Just kill me and make it quick!"
Rashad thought the reason that Drake and Sophia kept him in the hospital and forbade him from
seeing Lily was to torture him. He knew they wouldn't spare him for what he had done.
"Do you admit your fault?" asked Drake.
Rashad glanced at him and retorted, "Cut the crap. I won't regret it. It was a pity that I didn't have
enough time to have sex with Sophia, or, you two would never be back together again!"
Snap!
Sophia slapped him hard in the face.
"Rashad, you really think I would be with you if you raped me, huh? I'll never be with you even if I can't
be with Drake again. Just so you know. I'd rather die than be with you!" said Sophia with hate and
anger.
Rashad stared at her and was frozen for a long while. "You hate me that much?"
"What made you think I would fall in love with you? You know what? I won't give a damn about you
even without Drake in my life."
Rashad looked at her unbelievably, "But why?"
"Because you don't deserve it! Rashad, true love is not about having someone. If you really love
someone, you won't hurt her even if you can't bear to see she's with someone else. You don't know
love. You are a selfish bastard! You care about yourself only. You are sick!"
Sick? No one had ever talked to him in this way. Somehow, he had nothing to say to defend himself.
Drake looked at him, "I won't kill you. It's unnecessary. You're the only son of my uncle. You're my
cousin. I'll follow Grandpa's will to send you and your mother abroad. Stay there and never come back
again!"
