LUCIA—“LIGHT”*Chapter 102*There were more ways to end a life than anyone could count. That thought burned through Sofia’s mind as she stopped directly in front of Cici, eyes locked and burning.“You have no idea who you just tampered with,” Sofia muttered, the corner of her mouth lifting in a cold almost-smile.“You can do nothing,” Cici retaliated. “You’re just bitter that I got him in the end after your ridiculous show of being his girlfriend. Besides, you’re a nobody, and you’re definitely not a good match for him.”Cici had no idea who she was speaking to.She pressed on, emboldened. “And just because I let you win that silly swimming competition doesn’t mean you can compete with me in anything, ” I can have anyone or anything I want with a snap of my fingers, so don’t ever think you’re a match for me or anywhere close to my level.” Her mind briefly returned to the insult Rolex had thrown at her the previous day, making her even more determined to prove herself.Sofia only star

”Light" Chapter 100 “Who are your parents?” Aunt Ophelia asked Jasmine, trying hard to keep her composure. They stood at the side of the sitting area at the hospital. Jasmine had never told anyone much about himself, but somehow, he found himself answering. “No idea.” He shrugged. “I grew up in an orphanage.” “Oh...” Aunt Ophelia murmured. Jasmine studied her face. Why did she look so familiar? “Here.” Aunt Ophelia suddenly reached into her purse and handed him a card containing her phone number, home address, and a few other details. “Call me whenever you feel like it,” she said. Her voice softened. “And you’re free to come over for dinner with your friends.” Her voice cracked slightly on the last sentence. Before Jasmine could say anything, she turned and hurried outside, leaving him standing there in confusion. “That was weird,” he muttered, staring at the card in his hand. Shaking off the strange sense of familiarity, he slipped the card into his pocket before return
Chapter 99 “Austin?” Claudia raised a brow. “Who is Austin?” Aunt Ophelia quickly shook her head, as though Claudia’s question had brought her back to her senses. She forcibly tore her gaze away from Jasmine. She bent down and picked up the flask from the floor. Thankfully, it wasn’t damaged— it was made of steel. With a smile, she walked toward Claudia and placed the flask on the table alongside a small nylon bag. “How are you feeling now, my sweet baby?” Aunt Ophelia asked, gently feeling Claudia’s forehead. “I’m okay now, Aunt,” Claudia replied with a nervous smile. “Thank goodness.” Relief washed over Ophelia’s face as she examined Claudia carefully, checking for any cuts or injuries. “I almost lost my mind when I heard you were almost hit by a car.” Her words immediately surprised everyone in the room. The concern written all over her face seemed genuine. “Ma’am—” Cathy began to explain, but Claudia quickly squeezed her hand, stopping her. Something was wrong. Somethin

Guru Chapter 97 ~ Xanthe Family Residence ~ "Ugh..." Rolex groaned as he slowly stirred awake. Squinting against the harsh morning sunlight pouring through his bedroom window, he instinctively threw an arm over his eyes. His body felt strangely lighter than it had the previous night. Fragments of yesterday's party flashed through his mind. Then another memory surfaced. "Sofia..." Her name slipped from his lips like a prayer. He immediately reached for the phone on his nightstand, intending to call her. But he found Nothing, his phone was gone. A frown settled on his face.
