"Hmm." Sophie Smith just responded casually to Nanny Garcia and then left the restaurant.
Nanny Garcia said he should trust Asher Land’s innocence. Heh, she couldn’t help but find it a bit ridiculous. The source of thɪs content is novel•fire.net
Who was Asher Land anyway? He was a man who wandered among countless women. Whether he was innocent or not had nothing to do with her!
However, thinking of this, she inexplicably felt a little jealous.
"Sophie, stop thinking, stop thinking..." This was really taxing on her brain after all.
The next time Sophie Smith saw Wyatt Sterling was at the opening ceremony of the Angel City crew.
It started to drizzle, and the temperature was chilly. She was only wearing a loose turtleneck sweater and a skirt, which obviously couldn’t withstand the low temperature.
"Sophie." Hearing someone call her name, she turned around without hesitation. Wyatt Sterling was holding a cup of hot coffee, smiling slightly at her.
He handed the coffee to her, and she felt her palm warm instantly.
"Thank you so much." There was a hint of gratitude in Wyatt Sterling’s eyes. "When you agreed to take on this drama, I thought you were just saying it casually. I didn’t expect..."
Unexpectedly, she really went through with it. Having experienced the scandal, his popularity had undoubtedly waned, and many artists wanted to distance themselves from him. Yet, she didn’t forget how she stood up for him back then during the peak of controversy, nor her strong support now.
To him, she was truly wonderful. Unfortunately, she didn’t belong to him.
"Senior Brother, it’s just a small matter. You don’t need to worry about it."
Sophie was sincerely speaking from her heart; she definitely remembered Wyatt Sterling’s kindness towards her.
Wyatt Sterling lowered his head, and Sophie couldn’t see the emotions on his face.
"Senior Brother, what’s wrong?"
"Oh, it’s nothing." Of course, he didn’t want her to see the disappointment in his eyes. His heart was filled with an indescribable feeling. He thought, she was right in front of him, yet he felt such a vast distance between them. He hated this feeling.
"Sophie, turns out you’re here!" Just when the two were silent, Julia Brown walked in, breaking the existing silence.
"Anything wrong, Julia?" Sophie asked.
"No big deal, but I’m a bit hungry. Can you have dinner with me?" Julia blinked, pretending to be pitiful.
"Okay." Just as Sophie turned around, as if remembering something, "Senior Brother, come with us."
She turned to Wyatt Sterling.
Wyatt Sterling readily nodded in agreement.
The three of them went to a nearby restaurant. Due to the unique location, most patrons were crew members, actors, and staff.
All kinds of eyes were on her, making her feel a bit uncomfortable.
"Why is Sophie Smith mingling with our Producer Sterling again? Isn’t she Asher Land’s woman?"
"Who knows? Maybe she’s playing both sides, sleeping with this sponsor today and that one tomorrow..."
"So she’s that kind of woman!"
"What’s strange about that? Otherwise, how could she rise to fame so quickly? It’s said she got the female lead in City of Desire by climbing into President Land’s bed. Now, without a role, she’s latched onto Producer Sterling."
Sophie’s expression turned stiff. Why was her hearing so good? All the rumors fluttered into her ears as if they had wings.
