Horace elbowed the man beside him right after Lukas left. “I just said you're smart, and you go act like
an idiot right away! Are you dumb? He is no ordinary man. How dare you drop my name right away?
You're not afraid of getting beaten up, huh?”
Jett felt a little upset after hearing him. “Horace, who do you think that man is?”
“Who is that man? Obviously, he's that hottie's boyfriend!” Horace said.
Jett snorted. “So what? It's not like he's some big shot!”
“Are you out of your mind? Did you see what car the man was driving?”
Lukas was driving an S-Class Maybach. It was a low-key car, but a car enthusiast would recognize it as
a luxurious car with just a single look.
Even though Horace's company had been doing well these few years, he couldn't afford a car that cost
at least three million either.
Most men knew a thing or two about cars. Jett cocked his head to take a better look at Lukas' car and
noticed that Horace was right.
“My goodness, Horace! This car is at least three million! He has to earn at least billions to be able to
afford that car!”
Horace smacked Jett's head and chided, “You don't say?”
Horace had thought that the young man merely had a good job. However, he admitted defeat after
seeing Lukas' car.
He grimaced at the thought of what he had said to Lukas earlier.
Sophia's smile widened as she looked at the two men through the rearview mirror.
She had only retracted her gaze after the car left the hospital. Sophia then cocked her head to one side
to look at Lukas. “What did you say to them, Lukas?”
How did he manage to scare them senseless in just a few seconds?
“Nothing much,” Lukas replied nonchalantly.
Sophia raised a brow in doubt.
However, she did not press on since Lukas didn't seem like he wanted to discuss the matter further.
After all, no matter what he said, Lukas was teaching the arrogant man a lesson on behalf of her.
As the car cruised through the city center, Sophia hesitated a little before she said, “Lukas, please drop
me off at Golden Hotel.”
She was going to have dinner with Alexander anyway. Hence, she reckoned it didn't matter whether
she met him up earlier or later.
Lukas turned to eye her and asked, “Are you going to meet Alexander?”
Though his tone was neutral, Sophia still felt abashed as she mumbled, “Yes.”
She kept her head low and didn't meet Lukas' gaze.
He said nothing and took a turn at the next intersection to drop her at the entrance of Golden Hotel.
“Are you coming back for dinner tonight?” Lukas asked.
“I'm meeting up with Alexander for dinner.”
Lukas' expression stiffened ever so slightly. “I'm coming over to pick you up at ten later.”
Sophia's cheeks tinged pink. “I'll go back before ten.”
“Okay,” Lukas replied. After a brief pause, “Aren't you guys going fishing with Grandpa tomorrow?”
He reckoned that they should go to sleep earlier if they were going fishing the next day.
Sophia sensed the undertone to his question and felt her face going hot with embarrassment. “Okay.”
“Go on in,” Lukas said.
Sophia nodded. She bade him goodbye and turned to head inside the hotel.
Alexander didn't actually know that she would be there.
She was planning to surprise him. However, she noticed that Alexander was not in the room.
Sophia texted him, only to find out that he was out. However, he was already on his way back to the
hotel.
Sensing that something was off, Alexander replied: What's the matter?
Sophia: Oh, nothing. I wanted to order afternoon tea for you.
Alexander: You can order it now.
Sophia: Okay.
A familiar voice rang in the lobby on the first floor right after she was done replying to his message.
Since she didn't have the room card, Sophia couldn't enter Alexander's room. Hence, she could only
wait for him in the lounge on the second floor.
She thought it would take at least Alexander half an hour to return to the hotel.
Sophia then hastily ordered afternoon tea to go and brought it up to the eighteenth floor to Alexander's
room.
After Sophia exited the elevator, she bumped into a hotel staff delivering afternoon tea to the opposite
room. That gave her an idea. She stood outside Alexander's room and changed her voice. “Greetings,
sir. Your afternoon tea is here.”
The door was open in seconds after she knocked on the door.
“Surprise?”
Sophia flaunted the bag in her hand, her eyes crinkling into a smile.
Alexander grinned in response. He patted her head and grabbed her hand, leading her into the room.
“Excuse me, Mr. Hofstadter and Ms. Hofstadter. This is my girlfriend.”
Sophia felt awkward when she noticed there were other people in the room.
She cast a glance at Alexander, who was still holding her hand. His thin lips were curled into a smile,
and it was obvious that he was in a good mood.
Unlike Sophia, he didn't feel awkward at all.
Sophia straightened her back and wore a more serious expression to greet Alexander's guests.
“Please excuse me. I didn't mean to impose.”
“Not at all. We're the ones disturbing Mr. Xenos,” the man on the sofa, Jonathan Hofstadter, said with a
smile.
He eyed Sophia momentarily and immediately turned to look at Alexander. “Mr. Xenos, your girlfriend is
so pretty. I've heard a lot about you, Ms. Yarrow.”
Sophia managed a polite smile. “Likewise, I've heard a lot about you as well, Mr. Hofstadter.”
“Since Mr. Xenos is occupied, we shouldn't disturb you further,” Jonathan said.
He then turned to look at his daughter sitting beside him. “Kristin, we should head back now.”
The young woman stood up and approached Sophia. “I've been looking forward to meeting you, Ms.
Yarrow.”
Sophia had been in plenty of similar situations as this one. She managed a graceful smile and offered
Kristin a handshake, “Nice to meet you, Ms. Hofstadter.”
“I've watched the latest two episodes of Going Forward. I like you so much, Sophia! Are you really not
considering debuting as an artist?” Kristin suddenly asked.
Sophia was caught off guard when the young woman suddenly switched from formal greeting to fangirl
mode.
And here I thought she was yet another love rival I had to fend off. All right, then. Dealing with her will
be a piece of cake.
Sophia snapped out of her thoughts and let out a soft chuckle. “Thank you, but I was just doing my
friend a favor.”
Kristin was crestfallen and lamented, “What a pity! You should debut as an artist. With such a pretty
face, I want to shower you with gifts, even if you're just standing here doing nothing! Oh, can I take
photos with you? My friends are your fans as well. They think you're so pretty, like an angel. Oh my
gosh, I met an angel today. I'm so happy!”
Not only was Sophia stumped by Kristin's response, but Jonathan was dumbfounded by his daughter's
reaction as well.
However, Kristin's request was reasonable. It was apparent that Jonathan was in the middle of a
business discussion with Alexander. Sophia reckoned that it was only right she did Alexander a simple
favor.
In the end, Sophia took a short video and three photos with Kristin and signed on five photos of herself.
Then, Kristin left in satisfaction with her father afterward.
Alexander hugged Sophia from behind right after the door was closed behind them.
Sophia was taken aback and asked, “What are you doing?”
“Just... a little upset.”
He carried her to the couch and sat down, his eyes trained on hers.
Sophia raised a brow and deliberately asked the obvious, “Because of Ms. Kristin Hofstadter?”
“Yes.”
Amused, Sophia quipped, “But she's a girl!”
“That doesn't make it okay!”
