Right as Sophia said those words, Nina paled.
The words by the tip of her tongue seemed impossible to be spoken out loud now.
However, she knew that Sophia was the key to her continuous survival in the entertainment industry.
Therefore, despite her reluctance, she still came.
“Ms. Yarrow, I'd like to apologize to you.”
Sophia chuckled. “This is the first time I've seen anyone apologizing with such sincerity.” She then
paused for a while before adding, “If my husband had reacted a little slower earlier, I'm afraid we'd be in
the hospital now. And when we meet again, it should be in court, right?”
None of Sophia's words were derogatory, but she was clearly targeting Nina.
Nina could only stare at Sophia, who was in the car. She could not comprehend how the beautiful
woman could be so aggressive with her words.
“Ms. Yarrow, I didn't mean it.”
“Ms. Newfield, how long do you plan to stand here? Am I not allowed to go home if I don't accept your
apology?”
Nina froze. That was not her intention, but she had indeed rushed to block Sophia's car bodily, hoping
that she would have her request fulfilled if Sophia's car hit her.
Little did she expect Alexander to hit the brakes so quickly. She was that close to getting hit by their
car.
At that point, if Nina continued standing in front of the car, it would be clear to everyone that she was
trying to stop them from leaving.
Nina was not that brave. After a while of looking at Sophia, she moved aside.
Sophia curled her lips into a smile. “Thank you for your magnanimity, Ms. Newfield.”
Those words were the final blow to Nina, and Nina nearly dropped her umbrella.
It was still raining, and the black car slowly drove past her into the mansion. As she watched the car
drive in, she could only stand rooted to her spot. She dared not go after them.
Right then, she recalled the moment she entered that mansion. The security guard stopped her and
asked her which house she stayed at, and she told him that she was there to visit a friend.
The guard instructed her to register, and upon seeing her write down Sophia's name, he said rather
politely, “Oh, you're a friend of Ms. Yarrow. She actually left with Mr. Xenos earlier. Since it's raining
today, you might want to visit another day.”
He sounded respectful but tentative as if he had guessed that she was not Sophia's friend at all.
How could real friends not know if their friend was at home or not?
Nevertheless, she insisted on waiting, so the guard let her in. However, when she turned around, she
noticed there was a hint of contempt in the guard's eyes as he looked at her.
Even the security guard in that vicinity seemed to regard her with disdain.
Nina knew that it would be difficult for her to make a comeback, but she refused to admit defeat.
She had climbed her way up the ladder with much difficulty in the entertainment industry. If she had
had a little more time, she would have reached the top.
Yet, she was now left with nothing, and she did not even know what mistake she had made.
Aren't the people in the industry all like this? It's common for people to seek support and benefits from
influential figures in the industry. It's natural to desire strong backing. Why am I suddenly the
unredeemable villain?
Nina could not wrap her head around the situation. All men are greedy. No matter how pretty Sophia is,
she won't be able to stop Alexander from cheating on her. In a few years' time, there will be plenty of
women throwing themselves at Alexander. Is she going to deal with every single one of them?
Sophia had no idea Nina still did not know what she had done wrong. She was standing on the
balcony, watching and pitying Nina, who was still downstairs in the same spot under the rain. But that
was none of her business.
Sophia let out a chuckle, then turned to head back inside the house.
Alexander was in the middle of washing prawns. Sophia wanted to help him out, but he wouldn't let her.
She could only watch him from the side.
She had to admit that she quite enjoyed watching him work in the kitchen.
Just then, Alexander turned to look at her.
“Aren't you tired?”
Sophia was somewhat embarrassed. “But I'm not doing anything.”
“How about I bring you a chair?”
Sophia's face flushed. “Nina's still standing downstairs. I'll go down and get rid of her.”
“Okay,” he replied. “You don't need to waste so much of your breath on her. Just tell her that she'd
better stand there until the end of the world if she insists on sticking around. Otherwise, she's not going
to get a second chance working in the entertainment industry.”
Sophia nodded. “All right.”
Sophia, of course, neither had much patience nor time to spend on Nina. If Nina had not been standing
outside her house, she would not have bothered heading downstairs to talk to her.
It was still raining, so Sophia took an umbrella before heading out.
The downpour enhanced the aroma of the flowers, saturating the air with an intensified fragrance.
When Nina saw Sophia, she was clearly surprised. “Ms. Yarrow?” Her eyes lit up. “I—”
Yet, she did not know what else to say besides that.
Sophia looked at her with a smile that did not reach her eyes. “Ms. Newfield, we initially held no
grudges against each other, and I had no reason to ruin your career. But, sometimes, we need to stay
humble. Ms. Newfield, I know you like keeping a high profile, but others might not have the same
preferences. This will be a lesson for you. I've always been a fair person. I won't mess with others if
others don't mess with me. This will be the end of this matter. But, of course, if you think this isn't fair,
then I don't mind contacting the CEO of Planetary Media again.”
The shock was written all over Nina's face when she registered what Sophia had said.
Once she recollected herself from her moment of surprise, she no longer dared to say what was on her
mind. “I understand, Ms. Yarrow. I won't do it again. I'm really sorry, Ms. Yarrow!”
For now, only Midway Media had blacklisted her. However, Planetary Media was Midway Media's rival.
Perhaps she would have another chance with Planetary Media.
However, if even Planetary Media blacklisted her, then she would really have no chance to make a
comeback in the entertainment industry anymore.
Overwhelmed with fear, Nina, who wanted to portray herself as a victim, quickly dismissed her plans.
It was at that moment Nina finally realized that Sophia had never bought her acts. What Sophia wanted
was to teach her an embarrassing lesson.
At that realization, Nina lost the courage to keep standing at the entrance of Sophia's house any longer.
She apologized, then turned around and ran away with her umbrella.
Sophia watched her scramble away and clicked her tongue. “Am I that scary?”
