Sofia immediately frowned. She always knew that someone would find out about her current arrangement. Luckily, it seems that their source thought that she was living in the same building but in a different apartment.

“| don’t think that is any of your business.” Sofia nodded at Miss Amores, who immediately went to get their car, leaving Sofia and Daniel alone.

“Really? Of all the people you really asked for my brother’s help

Sofia snorted. “I don’t know what you are talking about.”

“You know what he did to me.”

“| also happened to know that you had a relationship with my sister.” Sofia answered almost immediately.

“What are you- “Daniel's eyes suddenly widened. “You are you doing this to-“he rushed towards her, surprising Sofia. Then he held both of her arms. “Are you involved with my brother!?”

Sofia immediately flinched. However, before she could answer, Daniel added, “You really dared to be with my brother just to get back at me! Are you out of your mind? Do you not know what kind of person Alexander is? You- You really

“Then answer me! Daniel demanded. “Did you or did you

“Are out of your mind?” Sofia asked. “You really dare to come in here and accuse me of things? Do you really think | am as low as you?” Sofia glared at Daniel who struggled to stand upright. “I know you and Charlotte started your relationship years ago, so don’t you dare.. make me the villain! It was you who cheated on me! And | have evidence to prove that.”

As if on cue, her car also happened to arrive. “Now don’t you dare let me see your face again, Sofia said. “Or | will ruin your life!” she hissed before marching towards her car

Once inside, Sofia patted her chest, her face paling. She thought Daniel and Charlotte were done bothering her! It seems that she was wrong!

However, this made her wonder if Daniel had really lost his mind. What is he doing? Didn’t he love Charlotte? Why was he trying Tow Sofia around? Did he really think that she would get back with him after what he did? But why? She gritted

“Miss Charlotte is currently in Spain, Miss Amores said. “She has been visiting a lot of places nearby. Aside from that... she hasn't been doing much.”

So now, Charlotte is obediently staying in Spain? Sofia narrowed. Did she miss something? “Miss, | think | mean- May | speak my mind?” Miss Amores asked. “Please do.”

“It looks like Miss Charlotte is waiting for something” Miss Amores said. “This is from someone who has been around for years. | have met Miss Charlotte a couple of times, and | seem to notice that she is not someone who likes to stay idle for too long”

Sofia nodded. She actually agreed with Miss Amores. With that, she opened her phone and sent a text to Alexander. [Sorry to disturb you, but | have a quick question... She thought about sending a smiley face but ended up removing it. She did not want to sound silly in front of him.

She knew that Alexander was busy, so she knew that he would not reply anytime soon. After a while, she decided to send a second text. [Do you happen to know if Charlotte was really in Spain?]

After sending this message, she closed her phone and leaned back. Then she took a deep calming breath. She’s getting tired of Daniel and Charlotte. She really wanted to get this over with.

Her thoughts were interrupted, when her phone started vibrating “Karina?” Sofia answered the call. “Have you seen the latest tabloid news?”

“Huh?” Sofia frowned. “What's it about?”

“It's your grandmother!” Karina said.

“What? Wait... hold on. Let me check.” She took her tablet and checked out some news. Almost immediately, her expression changed.
