"Sophia," Noah called worriedly.
Sophia looked at him, trying her best to repress her anger. Her teeth were gritted.
Helena and Chloe stared at her in worry.
Bailey and Flynn looked at Drake in admiration as his question hit the nail on the head.
Suddenly, Chloe stood up and announced, "We quit."
Flynn asked unhappily, "What? It's not fair."
"What did you ask? It's just a game. Why do you have to be so serious?"
"Why can't we be serious? Isn't it true or dare?"
They almost got into a fight. Sophia answered, "Yes, I do."
Others gaped at her.
Drake had known her answer long ago. After all, when she forcibly had sex with him that night, she said so. He asked her to answer this question in others' presence because he wanted Noah to give her up.
As he expected, Noah stared at Sophia with an indescribable expression.
"Sophia?" Noah muttered.
Sophia added with a faint smile, "Why do I need to hide it? I admit I still love Drake, but so what? I don't have to be with him, do I?"
Others were confused, wondering why not.
Anyway, Edwin and Bard decided to quit.
All were dismissed.
On the way home, Noah was walking at the end of the group in silence.
Edwin and Bard seemed to think for a long while before asking Sophia, "You confessed your love to Drake earlier. How will you face him?"
Sophia cast a leisurely glance at them. "Even if I didn't do so, wouldn't you know I still loved him?"
The Lawson brothers exchanged a glance. In fact, everyone knew it.
"It's no big deal. I plan to return home in two days."
Noah yanked up his head and stared at Sophia. He agreed with her opinion. No matter what, she would leave Sealand, and she couldn't be with Drake.
Noah believed he still had a chance as long as they were not together.
Edwin said, "Go home whenever you like. As your older brothers, we no longer want you to be hurt."
Sophia nodded in appreciation.
However, she didn't expect something went wrong with her company the next day. In the morning, Chloe called her, and Sophia rushed to her company.
After she arrived, Chloe complained angrily, "Drake made trouble again. What the heck does he want?"
Sophia stiffened. A while later, she answered, "He knew I would leave Sealand after admitting it, so he took the initiative to trap me."
"He wants to make you stay, doesn't he?"
Sophia nodded.
"Gee! He's used a shitty way." Chloe gritted her teeth while inwardly cursing Drake.
"He knows only this way works as I care about my companies. That was the reason he took such a move."
"Shit! What a smart ass!" Chloe cursed. Staring at Sophia worried, she asked, "What do you plan to do, Sophia?"
"What else can I do? If I leave, he'll ruin my companies. I must stay."
Chloe shook her head helplessly. "Why don't you reconsider it? Probably, you two... can reconcile."
