The Queen They Let Go (Alice and Eric) novel Chapter 339

Emery lowered her voice. “We’re all here for the exhibition today. Don’t make a big scene. If things get out of hand, no one will be able to work together later.”

Sophie calmed down right away.

Everyone here was important and well–known.

It didn’t matter who was right or wrong–if the situation turned ugly, someone would end up embarrassed.

And later, when doing business, people would judge you first and think you weren’t steady or mature.

Also, when Eric looked over, his gaze carried a heavy pressure.

It felt suffocating, and you didn’t dare say anything bold or reckless.

Whether it was Emery’s warning or Eric’s cold and dangerous presence, Sophie didn’t push any further.

“Hold on,” Eric spoke at that moment.

His face was cold.

His eyes looked like sharp pieces of ice..

“Apologize to my wife.”

Sophie almost thought she had heard wrong.

On the surface, things had settled. They could have settled scores later if needed.

She had already lowered her pride.

The Nolan Group should have appreciated that.

Later, during business talks, they should have given her a better deal to return the favor.

But she never expected her compromise to earn no goodwill at all. Instead, Eric pushed harder and demanded that she apologize.

“You all saw it!” Sophic snapped.

She had always been hot–tempered. She had only held back earlier for the bigger picture.

Now her anger beat her reason. There was no way she could hold it in anymore.

She said, “I’m the one who got hit. The rude one was Alice.

“By law, that’s assault. If I go get my injuries checked, believe it or not, Fcan make sure you all end up at the police station and can’t walk out.”

After saying that, she called the police without hesitation.

Emery couldn’t stop her.

Seeing this, Eric’s expression didn’t change at all.

He simply gave her a colder look, took out his phone, and made a call.

Seeing this, Sophie let out a cold laugh.

In Torenridge, the top family had always been the Rowlands.

But now that Nicollo no longer handles things himself, the Previns are quietly rising and close to taking the lead.

No matter who Eric called, they would still have to show respect to the Previns.

She knew offending Eric could cause trouble, but it didn’t matter.

Eric had offended plenty of people already. Once others knew she was on bad terms with him, some of them might even join her side.

As for her feelings for Eric?

Hah. He was just a man. Once she became the most powerful person in Torenridge, getting him would be

easy.

With the police involved, there was no turning back.

Nicollo had wanted to speak, but when he saw that Eric was protecting Alice, he wisely stayed silent.

Nearby, Stella looked uncomfortable.

She walked over to Alice and apologized in a low voice. “I’m sorry, Ms. Spencer. You’re being dragged into this because of me.”

Alice gave a small smile and gently fixed Stella’s clothes.

“Do you really think she’s targeting you?”

Stella knew that wasn’t true.

By now, it wasn’t a simple issue anymore.

Still, it all started because of her, so she did share some blame.

Alice patted her shoulder. “Let’s wait for the police to arrive.”

But the police came together with Sophie’s parents.

The moment they saw Eric, they looked shocked. Then they immediately scolded Sophie.

After that, they apologized to the police, saying their child didn’t understand things well and that it was just an argument. There was no need to take anyone away.

The police didn’t push further. They had Sophie sign, some papers and then left.

Once the police were gone, Sophie clenched her teeth. “Mom, what are you doing?”

Sophie’s mother, Rosalie Previn, was furious.
