After he was done speaking, Cadfan then said, "Jaime, you have to help me keep a close eye on Sophie's every move during this time. You have to investigate clearly to find out where she goes, who she meets with, and what she does. Do you understand?"
Jaime hurriedly said, “I got it, Grandpa. Don't worry!"
"Okay." Cadfan sighed and said, "What I'm most worried about now is not whether she will be able to d o this business well or not. What I'm most worried about is whether she will sell all of the ocean shipping business' fixed assets as soon as the business is transferred over to her... So many ships, so many port resources, and the rights to the canal passage can all b e sold for hundreds of billions of dollars. So, you have t o pay attention and keep a lookout for the slightest hint of trouble!"
The expression on Jaime’s face turned cold in an instant as he said, "Grandpa, I'll definitely keep an eye on her!"
After hanging up the phone, Jaime felt extremely worried and unhappy.
'I’ve been working so hard for so long, and I even had t o flatter and please Grandpa after my mother and younger sister met with the mishap...’
'But what did Grandpa give me in return?’
'Nothing!'
'I did not gain any real benefits at all!’
'He only fed me some illusions, but I do not even know whether I'll ever have the opportunity to reap the benefits!'
'Sophie, on the other hand, took advantage of the opportunity to cause a scene because she had something on Grandpa, and she managed to gain such a huge business just like that! This is too unfair!' 7

Meanwhile, Charlie and the others had already arrived at The Heaven Springs.
Since they were going to enjoy some wine whilst chatting with friends, Charlie had naturally chosen this location.
It just so happened that Charlie would also be delegating a portion of the Harker family members to Albert in the future. So, if they were to eat here, Charlie could simply invite both Albert and Isaac to join them for dinner too.
