"Sophia, what do you mean, how can you puncture the enemy's arrogance and reduce our morale?" Edwin asked irritably, covering the part where he was kicked.
"One should act according to his competence, don't you know?" Sophia rolled her eyes at him.
"So, you mean we two together are inferior to him alone?"
Edwin's question made Drake cast a glance at Sophia.
Yes, he would like to know if Sophia thought so.
"What nonsense are you talking about, hurry up and get up!"
Chloe, a carefree woman, was laughing over there.
Edwin yelled, "Ugh, what are you laughing at? Hurry over to help me up!"
Chloe had never seen such a funny scene, and she wondered if there were any paparazzi around here. If it was photographed and reported, Edwin would lose face.
However, both Chloe and Helena came over to help.
Edwin and Bard stood up, both as tall as Drake.
They looked straight at Drake.
Drake also looked at them, and unlike their hostile eyes, his were indifferent.
"You brat!" Edwin grabbed Drake's collar. "I've been upset with you for a long time. We are not capable of teaching you a lesson today, but you wait for me, I will make you suffer sooner or later."
Sophia came over. "Okay, Edwin, let's go!"
Edwin shot a warning look at Drake, and then left with his arm around Sophia.
Another man whose embrace didn't repulse Sophia!
Another man who was surnamed Lawson. Though Edwin had never exposed his family background in the showbiz. Drake guessed Edwin might be from a rich or powerful family judging from Edwin's connections.
But what baffled Drake more was Sophia's relationship with them.
...
Along the way, Edwin kept talking about how annoying Drake was, and Sophia said nothing.
Perhaps because of this, Edwin suddenly thought of something and asked, "Sophia, you've seen him since you came over to Sealand and nothing more has happened between you two, right?"
Sophia gave him a look, "Do you think I will give the same person a second chance to hurt me?"
"I know you won't. But from my perspective, that man called Drake is truly handsome and no wonder you like him so much."
"It's okay you like him, but don't get hurt. I've seen the miserable Sophia once and that's enough. I don't want to see that again. Understand?"
"Got it, Edwin, I've promised Bard that I'll go back to Pinkerton after all the work is done over here."
"Well, it better be, if I find out you didn't go back, I'll try every means to take you back."
"By the way, Ms. Emma Glass has come here too."
Maybe because of the change of the subject, Edwin finally stopped talking about Drake.
When they arrived home, they were all tired and each went to sleep.
