Chapter 1339 - 1341: I Hope They’re Still Alive...

She is going to meet the Prime Minister tonight, and even now, she’s not planning to invite him along?

What exactly is going on with her saying on the phone that Lucifer will accompany her?

Sophie Sullivan stroked Gabby’s head, raised her head to look at him, thought for a moment, and asked, "Any news on Herman and Jennifer?"

Isabel and Andres refused to reveal the whereabouts of Herman and Jennifer. If it weren’t for the fact that they still held some value, Sophie would have already dealt with them.

Thomas Shannon shook his head slowly, and Sophie couldn’t hide her disappointment, "I hope they’re still alive..."

.....

At 7:00 p.m., Sophie carefully groomed herself, and the butler stepped forward saying, "Miss Cecilia Branford, Young Master Lucifer has already arrived."

"Hmm."

Sophie lifted the hem of her formal dress and elegantly walked outside.

Thomas Shannon looked at her back with a faint smile, "Fennie, is there anything you want to say to me?"

Anything?

Sophie turned back expressionless, shook her head, "No."

Thomas Shannon pressed his thin lips tightly, letting out a cold laugh, "Heh."

With mockery and a hint of disdain.

Sophie had no time to pay him any mind, she quickly walked away. Lucifer had already gotten out of the car, and when he saw her lifting her skirt hem and walking over, he immediately came forward to greet her.

"My dear, you look extremely beautiful tonight."

Sophie arrogantly gave a small hum, "Am I not usually beautiful?"

"Beautiful usually, even more so tonight." Lucifer supported her, "Let’s get in the car first."

Once in the car, Sophie looked at the scenery quickly receding outside the car window, and asked with a hint of worry, "Lucifer, what do you think the Prime Minister wants with me, truly?"

"Andres is very likely in some other deals with the Prime Minister. Arms is one, and another... is hard to say." Lucifer’s eyes turned deep.

The assets of the Onassis Family are as rich as a country.

Andres wants to illegally seize these assets, so he must find a backer to solidify his position, acknowledge his identity.

Only this way, can he rightfully enjoy the assets of the Onassis Family and become a legitimate heir.

His dealings with the Prime Minister would inevitably be shady.

Likely involving money and interest transactions.

"Besides money, I can’t think of any other transactions." Sophie scoffed coldly, Andres’s schemes are all underhanded.

Since the Prime Minister stands on his side, it’s very likely a mutual benefit situation.

Andres hasn’t appeared in public for some time now, and I’m sure the Prime Minister has already caught wind.

It’s not hard to imagine what kind of scene tonight’s dinner will be.

The Prime Minister’s Mansion.

The black Maybach just stopped, Leo got out of the car, and together with the guards, opened the car door.

Lucifer and Sophie had just gotten out of the car when the Prime Minister’s secretary came out to greet them.

"Your Highness Lucifer, Miss Cecilia Branford, you’ve finally arrived. Please come in, His Excellency the Prime Minister has been waiting for quite some time."

The secretary warmly made a gesture of invitation, the smile on his face was the most perfectly standardized diplomatic smile.

Not a single flaw to be found, impeccably perfect.

Sophie and Lucifer exchanged a glance, Lucifer smiled and nodded slightly, "Then please lead the way."

"Your Highness Lucifer is too kind, please follow me."

In the main hall, His Excellency the Prime Minister was holding a cup of tea, gently savoring it.

"Your Excellency, Your Highness Lucifer and Miss Cecilia Branford have arrived."

Upon hearing this, the Prime Minister lifted his eyelids with a smile, "I’ve really been looking forward to your visit."

Lucifer smiled and said, "Apologies for keeping Your Excellency waiting."
