Outside the hotel, Jenna asked, “By the way, Sophie, where are you staying tonight? Going back to the Burke estate?”
Sophie shook her head. After tonight's incident, returning to the Burke estate would just be asking for trouble.
Harold said, “That’s perfect, it’s my birthday tomorrow. Why don’t you stay at my place?”
Sophie was surprised, “Your birthday? How come you’ve never mentioned it before?”
“He’s never been fond of celebrating his birthday and he’s never invited friends over to stay,” Gordon said with a light smile. “It’s late, and it would be inconvenient for both of you to go home now. Why not stay at our place tonight and leave after the birthday party tomorrow?”
After saying this, Gordon glanced meaningfully at Sophie.
Sophie’s heart skipped a beat. Why did that look seem so strange?
Tomorrow, S Corporation was hosting a masquerade ball, and the invitations had already been delivered to the hands of various business executives.
Could it be that Gordon suspects her connection with S Corporation?
Sophie shook her head at the thought. She had managed S Corporation affairs well and her identity was concealed perfectly. There was no way Gordon could know.
Jenna said, “Sophie, that’s a great idea. If we’re at the Aldridge estate, even if James wants to call you back in the middle of the night, he definitely couldn’t snatch you from the front of the Aldridge estate. Let’s go.”
Sophie nodded.
Joy was written all over Harold’s face as he said, “Then I’ll have the guest rooms prepared right away. My place is big, and I’ll take you guys for a tour tomorrow.”
Sophie was distracted, her thoughts were all on tomorrow’s masquerade ball.
She couldn’t shake off the feeling that Gordon knew something. Thinking this, Sophie looked up and found herself meeting Gordon’s gaze again. His gazes seemed like a deep, unfathomable cold pool, making her feel timid.
