"So I know you've heard about the upcoming event of our school." The class head, Arkin spoke in front. Sophia actively listened, already feeling better and looking forward to the upcoming ball."You can choose your date for the night, not limited to your classmates. And to add to this, we will be needing one representative, male and female to do the opening dance. Whoever is interested can approach me later after this." He said. "He's so hot when he talks." Kate said, openly gazing and daydreaming about Arkin who wa standing in front."Nah, you're not compatible. He's a rule abider, and well, you...on the other hand kind of do all the worst things possible. You're just going to give him a headache," Marcus said, teasing Kate laughing at her face that's shading like a red tomato."Shut up! You're just jealous because no one wants to go out with a stubborn child like you." Kate fired back, but Marcus was unaffected by her words, sticking his tongue at her."Ugh! So immature!" Kate grum

"Hey-hey, slow down with that. That's too strong for you Soph..." Kate took the glass that contained strong alcohol from Sophia's hand. And yes, alcohol were very much allowed by the school. Students here know what will happen to them if they make a wave of trouble, so there were zero students who would dare try. Which was why the school were very lenient with them bringing liquors."Please, this is nothing." Sophia said, giggling, her face bright red. "Just look at yourself. This is your twelve glass already. Stop, no, no! Sophia..." Kate wrestled with her as she tried to grab the glass from her hands. Sophia successfully got her drink back and gulped it in one go.Everyone was looking at their direction since Sophia was making a lot of fuss. Even the Student Body President wanted to reprimand them but was afraid because of the difference of their social status. The somber music of the violin spread in the air, and as the night progressed, Sophia also became more of a mess. There

"Where do you want to go tonight?" Grey asked Sophia as they got out of the hotel and into the car. And yes, they are going out together exclusively now. Ever since Sophia and Caden's divorce Grey was persistent enough in courting her and when he heard that Sophia moved to Country B to manage her family's subsidiary companies there, he also made chase until one day, Sophia closed her eyes in irritation at him and just said the big "YES" just so he would not be all creepy and stalk her every time, trying to hide from her when in fact it was clearly obvious he was following her because people would point at him because of how popular he was."Sorry, I have to cancel our date tonight, I have an urgent meeting with some important investors and I can't pass this up," Sophia replied with an apologetic tone.One of the real reasons why she gave him a chance is because of their shared past during college. He was basically a sweetheart to her, and took care of her when she was at her lowest.

"Hi babe, where are you up to this early?" Grey asked, staring at his phone, seeing Sophia driving and off to somewhere."I'm going to the hotel my brother and his fiance is staying, cause if you still don't know, getting married requires a lot of tedious work, and for some reason he think I can pitch ideas for his wedding." Sophia replied with a groan while looking cautiously at the road as she drove."I see, well, be careful. I'll call you later tonight. I LOVE YOU." Grey said, emphasizing the last part, expecting a warm reply, however, his hopeful anticipation crumbled as Sophia responded with dry reply."Ok, bye," Sophia muttered, ending the call hurriedly as she took a left turn towards the parking lot of the hotel, missing the despondent look Caden gave her as they said their good bye to each other.Grey wasn't expecting to hear the three sweet words from her, but the absence of those words each time he expressed his love still stung him. Despite being hurt repeatedly, he unders

"I'm on my way there," Sophia is currently packing her luggage, going to the resort where the wedding will be held. She made sure that she brought all the things she needed, and for some reason that includes her humidifier and some vase that she says will compliment the room she'll be staying at. "I guess this is all it." She nod her head, satisfied and proceeded in dragging the luggage. Unfortunately, with just one try, she already fell to the ground, not being able to carry the weight of all the things she put inside. "Sigh, I guess I have to unload some stuff then," She clicked her tongue, getting up and taking out all the unnecessary stuff she packed in the bag...."Axel, where are you? I thought you're going to pick me up?" Sophia waited for almost half an hour in the lobby of her condo, growing annoyed at her brother for making her wait for so long. She decided to call him to give him a piece of her mind."I'm sorry, I forgot. I'm already at the resort, why don't you just dr
