Chapter 31
Because of the cooperation with Walton Group, Sophie had to go to Walton Group to understand the
situation.
Under the guise of a meeting, she took the opportunity to investigate Walton’s details.
Truly, it’s the top company in the country, a powerful business empire that surpasses the wealth of Hades family in Andorra.
If she wants to make an impact, it won’t be a simple task.
During the meeting, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a woman in high heels entered.
The woman, with an air of superiority, glanced at the others and finally fized her gaze on Sophie. “You’re
the owner of the company’s new studio, right?”
Sophie was not unfamiliar with this person.
Stella, Leo’s cousin, and a close friend of Matilda.
Back when she was still naive, Stella didn’t hesitate to slap her, and often used hurtful and insulting
words.
She doesn’t seem to be here with good intentions today.
“Vice President Walton.” When others saw Stella, they quickly stood up.
Over the years, she hasn’t been flaunting her status at the company, but because she’s part of the Walton
family, the Walton’s hold a special place in many people’s hearts.
“I heard you changed the spokesperson for the fashion department. What qualifications do you have?”
She was furious when Matilda called her, so she had to come to vent her anger.
“You’re just a designer; do you really think highly of yourself?” Stella looked down on Sophie.
Sophie smiled coldly. “My qualifications are approved by Leo. If you have a problem, go talk to him.”
When Stella heard Leo’s name, she was somewhat afraid of him.
This cousin had a kind of authority about him, especially when it came to work matters. His decisions
had never wavered.
“Don’t think you’re all that just because you’re in this position. If the performance of the fashion

department doesn’t improve this month, you’ll be out of here!” She had promised Matilda that she would get rid of this woman.
Facing Stella’s anger, the others shivered, afraid to even breathe.
But Sophie wasn’t afraid at all. “If I have to leave, you’re not worthy. When Miss Walton can actually have a say in the company, then come and talk to me.”
Stella’s face turned pale for a moment. Was this woman saying she had no say in the company?
“Sophie, don’t get too arrogant. Since the company has entrusted the fashion department to you, we have à cooperation to discuss tonight. How about you handle it? You must make them purchase the next quarter’s styles, and if you mess it up, my brother will definitely fire you!” Stella had her own schemes. She gave the most difficult task to Sophie, believing it would be her downfall.
The assistant nearby, aware of the situation, was extremely worried. But it was clear that Miss Walton was deliberately making things difficult for Sophie. If she offended Miss Walton, she wouldn’t be able to stay at Walton Group.
She hesitated and spoke vaguely, “Miss Hades, the cooperation partner we’re going to meet tonight is notoriously difficult. Please be careful.”
“It’s okay,” Sophie dismissed it with indifference.
