"No way!" Rita shook off Sophia idea. "S City is big. But there are so many people going shopping.
What if my fan recognize me? I have to keep a good image, image! " As Rita spoke, she straightened
her back and adjusted her sunglasses. Then she strode forward confidently.
Sophia looked Rita and shook her head. It seemed that it was not easy to be a star. Rita needed to
consider all kinds of possibilities of meeting her fans before going shopping.
It was lunch time. Rita and Sophia chose a western restaurant to have lunch. To have a quite meal,
Rita reluctantly took Sophia to the innermost, and sat in an extremely inconspicuous seat.
Rita called the waitress to order and she happened to be one of Rita's fans. The girl was so excited to
see her and asked for her autograph. Rita immediately adjusted herself to a tender goddess. She
smiled and signed for the waitress.
Looking at the waitress leaving happily, Sophia shook head one after another, and said half-jokingly,
"look, this is the public criticism. You have to be careful on everything."
"Hello!" Rita frowned and pretended to retort angrily, "Aren't you a public figure?" Rita replied as she
shook the cover of the entertainment magazine. There was a picture of Sophia and Victor in it.
When Sophia saw the magazine, she thought about how bossy Victor was. He propped his hand
against the table and claimed that he was the man she loved. Thinking of this, she blushed and gave a
broad smile.
Rita frowned and sighed. She cupped her chin in one hand and shook her head to tease Sophia, "it's
over. Sophia, you are hopeless. You are the kind of woman that is often said to be in love, and your IQ
is low. Look at the lewd smile on your face when I mentioned Victor. "
Surprised by Sophia's words, Sophia instantly felt embarrassed. She widened her eyes and snapped
back, "you are that the pot calls the kettle black! Think about it. When you have time you can't wait to
find Leon in the YS Group."
When it came to Leon, Rita lowered her head with a blush. She didn't talk too much, but just smiled
sweetly. Perhaps everyone had such a person in their heart. Only by mentioning it, they would feel
heartbeats like thunder, and only blushed.
Sophia handed a piece of mirror to Rita and giggled, "look at yourself? How dare you make fun of me! "
"Sophia, you don't know Leon. He is a man who doesn't pay much attention to dignity. Besides, he is
sharp tongued. But he is a man in crucial time," Rita commented. Rita recalled Leon's handsome face
with a smile.
"How handsome is he?" Sophia asked curiously, smiling ambiguously. Since Leon had lost his temper
because of Rita's scandal last time, Sophia knew that Rita meant a lot to Leon. Leon would do anything
for Rita's sake.
"The time when my gossip came out..." "Forget it. Why should I tell you? I have to take my time to
recall it. "
Seeing this, Sophia wanted to ask Rita. But right then, the phone rang. Then Sophia took out her
phone, and the smile on her face faded away when she saw the name on the screen. Her eyes
became colder. It was Jenny.
"Hello, it's Sophia." After a brief moment of hesitation, Sophia on the other end of the line answered the
phone. There was no emotion in her words.
"Sister. I saw you and your boyfriend on a magazine. Congratulations! " Jenny's coquettish voice came
through on the phone.
It was so ironic to hear Jenny call her sister. From the day Sophia came to Jian family, both Jenny and
her mother did not have much room for her. They always looked for every opportunity to tease Sophia
and try to kick her out. Sophia was not only embarrassed by Jenny, but Jenny also joined hands with
Teresa to spread the gossips about Sophia. Why did Jenny pretend to be her sister now?
"What's up? Are you calling me just to congratulate me? " Sophia didn't want to tangle with Jenny.
"I really congratulate you, sister. Why do you speak to me in this way?" Jenny said in an aggrieved
tone.
Sophia thought it was kind of funny. Sometimes, she really felt that Jenny looked like Teresa when she
pretended to be pitiful. Compared to Sophia, Jenny was more like the younger sister of Teresa. "If you
have anything to say to me, just say it. I'm having lunch outside with my friend now and I don't have
time to chat with you."
Hearing this, Jenny finally got to the point. "I just want to tell you that I'm going to be engaged to Peter.
I hope you can attend my engagement ceremony."
"I'm not going. Doesn't Peter feel embarrassed to see me?" Sophia sneered in her heart, not
understanding what the Jenny meant. She found that Jenny seemed to be interested in everything
related to her.
So it was not surprising for Sophia that Jenny lured Peter.
It was not the seduction that made Sophia sad, but the temptation that Peter failed to resist.
Did Jenny want to stimulate her by inviting her to attend their engagement ceremony? But even if
Sophia had been sad for Peter, it was now a thing of the past. She felt nothing different about Peter
after such a long time.
"Do you still mind the fact that I stole Peter from you? I... I know I was wrong about that. But I love
Peter so much! Now that you has found your Mr. Right, it's time for you to forgive me! I really want to
receive your blessing and invite you to my engagement party, " Jenny's voice sounded pitiful, but it
made Sophia feel sick of it.
But in fact, Jenny was right. If she hadn't seduced Peter and didn't make Peter change his mind,
perhaps Sophia wouldn't have the chance to meet Victor and fall in love with him. In this case, it might
Sophia owe Peter a debt of gratitude for his unkindness that he didn't marry her in the past.
Finding that Sophia didn't say anything, Jenny then said, "sister, please come with your boyfriend."
Hearing that Jenny was asking her to take her boyfriend with her, Sophia didn't refuse her directly.
Instead, she said curtly, "let me have a look. I'll see whether I have time."
Hearing this, Jenny felt happy in her heart. She said quickly, "then I'll find time to send the invitation to
you. You can just take the invitation card to come! I should leave now. You can have lunch with your
friend. "
"Okay." Sophia said hastily and hung up the phone.
Hearing that the phone had been hung up, Jenny took the phone off her ear and threw it on the
dressing table. The smile on the face in front of the mirror gradually disappeared and became
ferocious.
Jenny knew it very well that if she wanted Sophia to take Victor with her, Sophia would get intrigued. It
was easy to guess Sophia. Sophia only wanted to be Victor's side in front of everyone. She wanted to
make it for Sophia. But Jenny was sure that the higher Sophia fell, the more painful Sophia felt. It
meant that Jenny wanted Sophia to climb up the wall deftly and proudly, and then push Sophia into the
abyss when she climbed to the highest, which would make her doomed!
When Rita noticed that Sophia on the other end of the line answered the phone, Sophia kept a straight
face. Then she hung up the phone and sighed. Rita knew that this call must be from someone Sophia
didn't like very much, so Rita cautiously asked, "who is calling you? I heard you mentioning Peter. Who
is he? "
"It's Jenny. It's my sister. She said she was going to be engaged, with Peter. Peter is my ex-boyfriend.
Jenny took him from me. Jenny called me to attend her engagement ceremony. " Sophia picked the
highlights and made Jenny's point in a few words and the complicated relationship between them. After
that, she threw up her hands.
"Then what are you going to do? Just refuse! Or you will be very embarrassed. You and Victor are on
good terms. The media is full of positive comments. If anyone knows that you went to their engagement
party, you will get yourself in trouble. " Rita replied, "your sister is obviously ill intentioned. She had
spread about your negative news with Teresa before. There must be some plot this time! Listen to me,
you can't go there! "
"But..." After a brief pause, Sophia said, "but, Jenny asked me to go with Victor. Rita, I know you're
doing this for my own good. In fact, I don't know why Jenny asked me to go. I know that she's waiting
for me to get hooked, perhaps because she's not well intentioned. But I want to go there. I want to
stand beside Victor and appear in public. I want people know that I am Victor's girlfriend. "
Rita was surprised. She couldn't understand Sophia's feeling. According to what Rita thought, as long
as they could be together well, did it really matter that what others thought and recognized? Sophia
always felt inferior when she was with Victor. The better Victor was to her, the more self-abased she
would be. But Rita also knew that as a popular star, she couldn't understand what was in Sophia's
mind. It would harm Sophia if Rita spoke without thinking, so she'd better keep silent.
After their lunch, Rita asked, "what do you plan to do next?"
"I just sent Victor a message on wechat. He said he would pick me up." Said Sophia with a smile.
"Okay, you can have a good time. I have to spoil my Leon! " Rita replied with a playful smile.
With a frown, Connie sat on the couch with a magazine in her hand. The magazine was filled with a
mixture of funny stories of Victor and Sophia. When Connie read the content that praised Sophia, she
threw the magazine aside furiously.
