The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 2212

As she spoke, Sophie was also a little exhausted as she said, "The main point is that the both of us are the only ones who have met our benefactor before. So, only the two of us can do this kind of identification work." 4

Jaime nodded helplessly and said, "You are right. Let's hurry up and try to find some clues about our benefactor as soon as possible!" 1

As he spoke, Jaime suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, Sophie, I will be going to Aurous Hill in two days. Do you want to come along too?" Sophie asked curiously, "What are you going to do in Aurous Hill?"

Jaime replied embarrassedly, "Didn't I sign a sponsorship and collaboration contract for Quinn's concert? She will be holding her first concert of the year in Aurous Hill on the second day of February. Didn't I promise her that I was going to donate ten million dollars to the Aurous Hill Charity? So, I want to personally make a trip there in advance so that I can not only arrange for the ten million dollars to be in place but also so that I can look into some major welfare homes, orphanages, and charities in Aurous Hill. At that time, I will also donate another twenty million dollars to help these institutions according to their actua needs and requirements." 4

As he spoke of this, Jaime continued speaking with a n awe-inspiring look on his face as he said, "Since I am going to do charity, of course I have to do it thoroughly!"

Sophie smiled maliciously as she said, "Hahaha! So, it turns out that you are doing it because you want to pursue Quinn! It is no wonder why you are being so active and energetic!"

Jaime hurriedly denied his sister's words as he said," Don't talk nonsense. I am going there to do some charity work. Besides, Quinn is not going. I am going by myself. So, how could you say that I am doing it merely to pursue Quinn?"

Sophie curled her lips as she said, "Oh! You are still trying to put on an act in front of me? Do you think that I don't know you well enough yet? You are simply trying to get everything done beautifully in advance so that Quinn would be impressed with you later, right? You promised to donate ten million dollars, but you end up donating thirty million dollars instead. At that time, Quinn will certainly think that you are a person with a strong sense of responsibility, and she will have a better and more favorable impression of you. Am I right?"

Jaime replied embarrassedly, "Yes, yes, yes. You are the smartest. I really cannot hide anything from your insight at all. Will that be enough?"

Sophie nodded before she laughed and said, "You should just admit it."

Jaime sighed as he said, "Sophie, our ancestors have a n ancient saying. I wonder if you have ever heard of it before?"

Sophie blurted out, "Stop the suspense and get straight to the point!" 1

Jaime replied earnestly, "Our ancestors said that even if you see through someone, you don't have to take the initiative to expose the truth. That is the highest state of a smart person." 3 Sophie replied disdainfully, "I don't need to be in the highest state to talk to you. A general state would be more than sufficient."

"You!" Jaime yelled angrily before he immediately changed the subject and asked, "Sigh. I was just asking you if you want to come with me? If you want to come, we should just go together, then. It so happens that I am not that familiar with Aurous Hill either."

Sophie shook her head and said, "No, I don't want to g o. I am not going anywhere until I find our benefactor!"

Jaime hurriedly persuaded her, "Oh, Sophie! Just accompany me and come on this trip with me. Anyway, all you need to do to find our benefactor is to look at the screen to identify him. So, we could just bring our laptops with us. We could continue looking for him when we are on the way or in the hotel. That way, it will not cause any delays at all!"

Sophie replied uninterestedly, "Even if that is the case, I still don't want to go. You are going there just

because you want to lay down the foundation to pursue Quinn. Why should I go as well?"

Jaime asked her, "Don't you want to go out to get a breather? Can't you feel the heavy and tense atmosphere in the house over the past two days? Grandpa and Dad have constantly had a gloomy and somber expression on their faces all day long. Can't you feel it? Wouldn't it be good for you to take advantage of this opportunity to get some peace outside for a few days?"

Sophie hesitated for a moment before she nodded gently and said, "You're right. Okay then, you can make all the arrangements. I can go out and relax a little as well."
