Sophie stood her ground, her face an open book of honesty as she asked again, “Tell me the truth, is there anything going on?”
Robin, with his lips pressed thin and a hoarse voice, replied, “Nothing!”
“That’s all I needed to hear!” Sophie then turned to Diana, “Did you get that? If you dare spread any more rumors about Jason, I swear I’ll make sure you’re run out of J City!”
Diana’s face paled, her teeth clenched as she glared at Sophie.
Sophie looked around at the others, “Sorry for the disturbance!”
With that, she turned and left.
Robin took a step to follow her, causing Diana to panic and grab his arm, “Robin, don’t leave me behind!”
Robin shook off her grip, his usually gentle face showing disgust, “Who told you to spread rumors? This is not the place for your drama. Write your resignation letter; I don’t want to see you here again!”
Thrown off by Robin’s rejection, Diana stumbled back into a chair, her eyes wide with disbelief.
Robin didn’t look back, walking away without another glance.
The room fell silent except for Diana’s muffled sobs.
Nobody moved to comfort her, everyone preferring to keep their distance.
Robin quickly caught up with Sophie in the hallway, calling out, “Sophie!”
She turned, “Yes?”
Robin looked embarrassed, “I’m sorry about today!”
Sophie remained silent, her face stern.
Sophie replied, “Diana might be hateful, but you don’t have to put everything on her.”
Robin admitted, “I know. I’ve been reflecting on my own mistakes.”
Just as Sophie remembered something about Hugo and was about to speak, her phone rang. It was Yolanda, wondering why she hadn’t returned.
Robin said, “You go ahead. We can talk another time when you’re free.”
Sophie nodded slightly and left.
She wasn’t in the mood for dinner with Yolanda anymore. Once back, she said, “I’m really sorry, Ms. Yolanda, but something’s come up, and I need to leave early. I’ve taken care of the bill, please enjoy your meal!”
“Oh, is that so? Well, I won’t keep you then!” Yolanda replied with a smile.
“Goodbye, Ms. Yolanda!”
