Although it was a simple outfit, Gary Lakes made it seem effortlessly grand.
He had left his window rolled halfway down, exposing his handsome face from outside.
All of a sudden, countless women were looking at him.
A handsome man in an expensive car, it was tough not to draw any attention.
However, Gary remained clueless about how other people were staring at him as he had his eyes closed.
He also didn’t know what happened between Sophie Kenwick and his female companion.
He had a sense of distance about him as if he was far removed from this world as he didn't fit in.
The woman glared coldly at Sophie before heading directly toward the cafe.
Sophie instantly felt angered by her behavior. She frowned and yelled at the beautiful lady. “Hey! Aren’t you going to apologize?”
When the woman heard what she said, she scowled slightly and removed her black sunglasses. She then turned around and crossed her arms over her chest.
“What?” She gave Sophie the side-eye.
There was a patronizing and arrogant tone in her voice, which annoyed Sophie and caused her to frown again.
“You drove past me and splashed water all over me, knowing there was a pothole in front.
“Why didn’t you slow down? Did you think you own this road?” Sophie felt increasingly upset as she spoke.
The woman sneered. “No, it’s not mine, but it is my boyfriend’s.”
She didn’t seem sorry at all, with that satisfied smirk on her face as she spoke.
With all this happening so suddenly, Sophie couldn’t control her temper anymore. She lifted her hand to slap the woman across her face, leaving her dumbfounded.
She hadn’t expected Sophie to attack her in return.
She covered her face with a look of disbelief in her eyes. “How dare you hit me? Do you know who my boyfriend is?”
“Who is he?” Sophie raised her brows.
“My boyfriend is from the Lakes family. Believe it or not, he can destroy your family,” the woman said plainly.
However, Sophie still seemed calm. “All right, get him to come here, then. I would like to see how he would do that.”
She didn’t know who her boyfriend was, and she wasn’t interested either.
“You will die today. I can forgive you if you kneel before me,” the woman said, rolling her eyes at Sophie again.
