"Shut up! I can ask myself!"


    Sandy spun on her heel to leave, but Sophie called out, "Leave the invitation with me. I need it again in two days."


    "You!"


    Sandy red at Sophie, clearly feeling provoked. But she had more pressing matters and tossed the invitation back to Sophie.


    She had to figure out what was going on!


    Watching Sandy storm off, Sophie remarked, "Don''t waste your energy. She won''t see you."


    Sandy halted, turning back with slightly red eyes, "Why would you say that?"


    "If she wanted to see you, she would''ve answered your calls or messages," Sophie said calmly. "Growing up in families like ours, it''s better to guard your feelings. Ms. Sandy, you see her as your best friend, but she... she could easily ditch you for her own gain."


    "You''re lying! Sophie, you''re the worst! You''re just trying to drive a wedge between us! Vanessa would never do that to me!"Content is ? by N?velDrama.Org.


    "How about a bet?" Sophie smiled slightly. "If you can get in touch with her before the engagement party, you win. If you win, you can take it out on me however you like. But if you lose..."


    "What do you want?"


    "Ms. Sandy, just agree to one condition from me. I haven''t decided what it is yet, but I''ll let you know when I do."


    Hearing Sophie''s confident tone, Sandy retorted, "Sophie, cut the scheming. I will not lose!"


    Watching Sandy run off, Sophie shook her head lightly. She''s not evil, just a bit naive.


    At the door, Colby walked in with takeout, and Sophie''s eyes lit up, "How did you know I wanted food from this ce?" "Someone was talking in their sleepst night, saying they wanted fried noodles and drooling all over."


    Colby ced the takeout on the table and carefully opened all the boxes.


    "I was just too hungryst night."


    Sophie grabbed a spring roll and popped it into her mouth. After hours of aerobics every night, she was always exhausted and starving. With ath the takeout ces closed at midnight, she could only dream about tasty food.


    Watching Sophie eat, Colby chuckled, "Slow down. You might choke."


    "I won''t." Sophie took a sip of the fruit tea Colby brought back and said, "Sandy was here just now. Did you see her?"


    "I did. I even watched the drama unfold at the doorway for a while."


    His men had called him, worried something might happen, so he rushed back, hitting the gas. But when he heard it was Sandy, he took his time and even picked up some of Sophie''s favorite food on the way back. Worried that all the arguing would make Sophie thirsty, he also got two cups of fruit tea.


    "Aren''t you worried that Vanessa might soften up and see Sandy?"


    "No, if she was going to soften, she would''ve done it already. If she really thought of Sandy as a good friend, she wouldn''t have gotten engaged to Odie." "But there''s always a chance."


    Sophie smiled slyly, "That''s what I have my husband for, to cover for me. I''ll trouble you toe up with a way to ensure Sandy can''t contact Vanessa these next few days." en.swhovels


    Colby raised an eyebrow, "Am I to understand this as cheating?"


    "No need to understand it as such. It is cheating."
