brow furrowing.
“Who are you?”
“I’m Chloe’s friend,” Sophia said coldly.
The agent rolled his eyes. Get lost! This isn’t your scene! What are you doing here?” “Chloe’s drunk. I’m taking her home.”
Sophia reached for Chloe, but the middle–aged man tightened his grip, leering at Sophia.
“Since you’re Chloe’s friend, you’re my friend too. Come, sit down, have a few drinks with. your big brother.”
Sophia ignored him and continued to try to pull Chloe away.
The middle–aged man slammed his hand on the table, his face darkening.
Seeing this, the agent rushed to Sophia’s side.
This guy’s a big shot. Forget Chloe; we can’t afford to offend JoyPlus. I warn you, don’t upset him. If you ruin this, I can’t do anything to you, but Chloe will never get another gig!” The hissed, whispering to Sophia.

Sophia took a deep breath, looking at Chloe, who had clearly had way too much to drink; liquor spilled from the corner of her mouth. Chloe was fighting for her career, sacrificing everything. Sophia wouldn’t let this ruin it all.
Drinks, huh? Fine, I’ll drink,” Sophia said.
The agent quickly poured her a drink and urged her to toast the middle–aged man. Sophia raised her glass, offered a curt nod to the man, and downed it in one gulp.
“Good! That’s the spirit!”
The middle–aged man raised his own glass and emptied it.
“Pour another! Pour another! We’re drinking till we drop tonight!”
As he finished his sentence, a crashing sound erupted from the next room, like a fight. “Damn it! This club is supposed to be members–only! Who the hell let these people in?!” The middle–aged man grumbled.

said quickly, “Mr. Sterling, please calm down. I’ll go next door and deal with them, get them to leave!”

“You need to keep me company for a few more drinks.”
“No problem.”

Sophia quickly called Tree in and had him carry Chloe out.
“What about you?” Tree was worried.
Sophia sent them out, whispering to Tree, “I’ll excuse myself to the restroom and slip out.”
Tree nodded. “We’ll wait outside.”
Sophia considered.“Okay.”
After they left, seeing the agent hadn’t returned, Sophia raised her glass.“This one’s for Sterling. I hope you’ll look out for Chloe.”
Mr. Sterling smiled.“Actually, I do have a project starting soon.”
“Any roles Chloe might be suitable for?”
“Of course. Even if not, I’ll have them add a part.”
“Then I’ll toast to Mr. Sterling…”

“Hey, that’s not how you drink.” Mr. Sterling stood up, approaching Sophia. “Here, big brother poured this one specially for you.” Sophia immediately became wary, reaching for the drink, but Mr. Sterling pulled it away.
“Let big brother feed you.”
Sophia stepped back. “That’s not appropriate.”
“Big brother likes you, happy to give you this face.”
I can’t accept Mr. Sterling’s ‘face‘.”
Mr. Sterling’s eyes darkened. He slammed the glass to the floor.
