Things were strewn all over the floor. Needless to say, the entire studio was a huge mess.On the way to the studio, Sophie had found out about what actually happened. Jeanette was just repeating her trouble-making antics by making Wyola's life hell.Both Wyola's and Jeanette's teams had booked the studio for their respective shooting projects. However, Wyola's slotted time was in the morning, whereas Jeanette had the studio to herself in the afternoon.Yet, Jeanette had reached the studio in the morning and insisted that Wyola give her the right to use the studio right away.Why would Wyola agree to such a ridiculous demand?If she were to give in to Jeanette's demand, that meant she would be lowering her own social standing. Once word got out, everyone in the entertainment industry wouldn't hesitate to push her around and steal her gigs.That was how Wyola and Jeanette had gotten into a fight, and later on, a stalemate."Jeanette, you should know that no one will tolerate your

The Warners' acts of benevolence toward Sophie were life-changing, that was for sure. But she had no idea when those acts had become shackles that chained her down in life.Sophie felt suffocated all of a sudden. It so happened that the server had returned with the coffee, so she wasted no time in taking a huge gulp from her glass.Thankfully, Sophie had ordered an iced coffee. She could feel the cold liquid rushing all the way down to her stomach. Only then did those feelings of suffocation alleviate slightly.Once she regained her senses, she finally realized that her action might have seemed rather jarring to Xavier.As expected, Sophie saw Xavier's worried look the moment she raised her head. She explained stiffly, "I… was just thirsty."Xavier's eyes glinted, yet he didn't expose her shoddy lie. "It's a bit too warm today, so it's only natural for people to get thirsty more often."After that, he took a sip from his coffee cup.Of course, Sophie knew that Xavier was just

Sophie added Henry's contact number immediately before sending a text message to him on WhatsApp.At first, she thought Henry wouldn't reply so soon. She didn't expect to see her message immediately receive two blue checkmarks, indicating Henry had seen her message, followed by a quick greeting from him.Sophie was surprised, but she quickly thought that Xavier might have informed Henry in advance. More warmth surged into her heart at that thought.Soon, she drafted her request and sent it to Henry.Henry's text came in soon enough. "One week," he wrote.Did that mean he would get back to her in one week?Henry sure was a man of a few words. Wasn't he going to negotiate the price with Sophie, at the very least?Sophie took the initiative to ask, "I'm not in a hurry, so please investigate this matter as thoroughly as you can. How much does a request like this cost, by the way?"Henry just texted back a number. "1000."Sophie had never hired a private investigator before, so she

Sophie could hear Mitchell's low chuckle coming from outside the blanket. "It's not like you haven't seen me in my morning glory. What's there to be shy about?""I don't care! I want you to get dressed right now!" "I'm done," Mitchell replied.Really?Sophie poked her head out of the covers with one eye cracked open. She took a secretive peek at Mitchell afterward.He was fully dressed.Good.Sophie sighed in relief before putting down the blanket.Mitchell didn't tease her anymore. Instead, he walked out of the room, though he didn't leave right away.He stood at the doorway and listened to how quiet the room had become for a moment. Sounds of clothes rustling against each other soon drifted into his ear. It was a tell-tale sign that Sophie had gotten out of bed.Mitchell's eyes darkened. All he felt was mixed feelings.A while later, he finally closed the door and left.Meanwhile, Sophie didn't realize that Mitchell had lingered at the doorway for some time. She got up a

Sophie's heart didn't race out of joy or uneasiness.She had spent her whole life yearning for precious treasure. Just as she had been starting to despair and think that she would never be able to obtain it, someone had suddenly placed it right before her.The rush of elation and surprise washing over Sophie's senses was so strong that she felt uneasy. She was scared that everything would turn out to be a lie.How could it feel so unrealistic?This feeling continued to plague Sophie until Mitchell came home to pick her up.When Sophie opened the car door to see him sitting in the back seat, a sense of realism was finally restored to her heart."Why are you here? Didn't you tell me that Martin would come pick me up?""I just happened to have some free time on my hands. Since we're attending the banquet together, I thought I might as well pick you up on the way there."There was a laptop sitting on Mitchell's lap. His fingers danced across the keyboard swiftly—a telltale indicati
