“You haven’t tried. How would you know if she’s still waiting for you?” Charles said.

Easton looked down at Sophia, who was smiling so gently, feeling torn inside. He thought, ‘After how I treated her back then, is it already too late to say I care?’

He paused and said, “Don’t worry about me. You’d better think about how you’re going to explain your relationship with Fiona to Mr. Lowe.

“He’s young, but has no plans for marriage, and he treats Fiona like a daughter. She’s only twenty, and you made her your girlfriend. I swear, if he finds out, he’d kill you.”

Charles swallowed, rubbing the back of his neck. “I really care about Fiona, and she loves me so much. I don’t think Mr. Lowe could bear to see her heartbroken.”

Easton snorted. “Come on, you’re known as a playboy. Ryan and I have lost count of all your so-called girlfriends. Do you really think Mr. Lowe would trust you with Fiona?”

Charles shrugged. “That’s all old history. Since I decided to be with Fiona, I’ve had no scandals, okay?

“You, on the other hand, should worry about yourself. Your drama with Stella made the headlines for a week straight. If you really want Ms. Roth back, you need to clear up all those rumors.”

Easton’s jaw tightened, eyes sharp. He wasn’t going to waste another word on him.

Charles quickly downed his drink and made a hasty exit.

Easton was on edge, chain-smoking and knocking back drinks one after another.

After a while, a sharp headache hit him. He rose and left the room, and before he had gone far, he saw Sophia standing right in front of him.

Sophia had come upstairs looking for the dressing room, but not only did she fail to find it, she ran into someone she hadn’t wanted to see.

She instinctively tried to leave, but the next moment, Easton grabbed her wrist.

Sophia gasped, her voice full of surprise, “Easton, what are you doing?”

Easton looked at her, eyes dark and intense. For a moment, his stare sent chills down Sophia’s spine.

Sophia could tell right away something was wrong, so she said, “Easton, are you drunk? I’ll go find Stella to take care of you.”

Easton had been controlling his emotions, only wanting to hold Sophia and spend a private moment with her. However, when he heard her mention Stella, the anger he had bottled up all evening flared uncontrollably.

“Sophia, stop testing my limits. I’ll say it one last time. There’s nothing between Stella and me, at least not the way you think. And what exactly is your relationship with Frank?” Easton pressed, his words heavy with thinly veiled jealousy.

His tone was deep, tinged with annoyance.

Sophia lifted her chin, glaring at him. “Whatever’s going on between me and Frank is none of your business. I don’t owe you any explanation, so let me go.”

Easton thought, ‘What did she just say? None of my business? Well, this really pissed me off.

Seeing him remain silent, Sophia tried with all her strength to pry his hand away. “Easton, let go of me.”

Easton ignored her words and suddenly bent down, pressing his lips to hers, his nose brushing against hers. He pinned her to the wall, forcefully prying her lips open and deepening the kiss.
