Wendy remarked, “Easy for her to say when she’s not the one running”


    “Shh! Keep it down, or you’ll be in trouble again!”


    Jean, thoughining, had no choice but to keep running.


    Sophie led the pack, her pace neither fast nor slow. After tenps, everyone was exhausted, but


    Sophie seemed to breathe steadily. Shirley gave her a second nce.


    When Shirley first joined the team, she would have been sprawled on the ground after tenps, but


    Sophie remainedposed.


    Habits weren’t formed overnight. It was Sophie’s past discipline that granted her this robust physique.


    After thirtyps, an hour had passed. Everyone copsed on the ground, utterly drained.


    Sophie managed to steady her breathing, though her heart raced. The intensity of thirtyps was


    overwhelming.


    “Well done. You can go have breakfast now. Skye announced, then added, “Sophie, stay behind.”


    The boys had finished earlier, and upon witnessing the scene, Johnny nudged Julian, whispering, “Hey,


    doesn’t it seem odd? Everyone leaves, but Skye asks her to stay!”


    “I heard Sophie got in through connections. Isn’t this tantly favoring her?”


    Johnny added, “We’ve all worked hard to get here, and she just waltzes in because of her looks and a


    wealthy husband.”


    *Nonsense! Sophie and the CEO of Burke International are on the brink of divorce. She must have


    another big sponsor behind her!”


    “Wow, that’s new?”


    Julian, usually


    uninterested in gossip, stood up and remarked, “Seems you all have too much free time.”


    “Come on, Captain, we’re all rested up. Let’s go eat!” Johnny quickly got up, aligning with Julian


    “Let’s not gossip anymore! Time to eat!”


    “Let’s go.”


    The group dispersed.

    Meanwhile, Skye handed Sophie some documents, saying, “Tve arranged a personalized nutrition


    meal n for you, instructions. He’s even provided a personal chef for you.”


    “A personal chef?”


    Sophie guessed right. Gordon was indeed stirring things up.


    He sneaked her in as a trainee and made a scene by moving her to the trainee apartments. Now, he


    even arranged a professional nutritionist for her.


    With Gordon’s intelligence, how could he not know that this wasn’t favoritism but a way to harm her


    indirectly? Sophie confronted Skye. “What exactly is Mr. Gordon’s intention? To make me public enemy


    number one?”


    “Don’t get it wrong. Mr. Gordon is just looking out for you.”

    “Do you believe that?”


    But now that she was in Gordon’s territory, she had to y by his rules.


    Sophie responded, “Let’s not go overboard. Whatever he wants me to do, I’ll do. There’s no need for


    this.”


    “I’m just following orders, Ms. Sophie. Please, follow me.”
