Chapter 5
- Back to the City, Sofia was already very different from before.
- On the day of her 18th birthday, Sofia's life had been totally changed. The man who should have proposed to her was seen playing around with her bestie.
- In order to take her shares away, her family arranged a scheme to ruin her.
- And the man who was in the name of helping her did not have a good intention.
- She believed everyone was full of bad ideas, but she had been struggling for her life in the U.S. these years, she had become more aggressive, she knew how to protect herself.
- It was not the time to go back to the Clark family yet. Her nose-of-wax father had been used to the words of her stepmother.
- In the past few years, he did not give her a single penny. To die or to live, she could only depend on herself.
- Knowing that Sofia was still alive, that man even bribed a lot of people to kill her. Fortunately, she was lucky enough to escape the kill again and again.
- Jack drove a maybach taking her to the hotel nearby. "President Clark, there is a temporary problem with the house that Henry arranged. Please stay in a hotel these days," said Jack.
- "Tell me what kind of hotel you like. If there's anything else I can do for you, please let me know." He added.
- "Well, I like the sea. Let's look for a hotel near it. By the way, are you going to the Holiday Hotel?" Sofia asked.
- Although she had not come back for three years, she was still familiar with the road. Holiday Hotel was the only five-star hotel on this road,
- Jack nodded, "Yes, the hotel is near the sea. It is also the instruction from President Henry."
- "No need, send me to Joneshao Hotel." Sofia's eyes were chilly. In her heart, what happened three years ago had been history.
- "President Lopez told me to keep you away from that hotel," Jack remembered that Henry had warned not to let her go there.
- He didn't expect that Sofia mentioned it herself. Joneshao Hotel is Evan Jones's business and Henry was afraid that Sofia would get hurt when she saw it.
- However, she insisted. The reason why she was returning was making those evil people pay a price for what they did in the past.
- Now she had grown up, being strong-minded and not afraid of any hurts, not to mention the idiot Evan. She liked him before just because she was naive.
- "I haven't seen him for three years. I don't know if he would still remember me." She thought.
- "Go to Shenghao." She emphasized. She spoke with a smile but her tone sounded a little creepy.
- "Okay." Jack had to agree.
- In the Lobby, Jack was checking-in for Sofia. She was in a black dress, and her hair was tied loosely behind the head.
- Her long legs overlapped, her neck was white. She had a unique temperament, she sat there casually, the people pass by were attracted.
- "Miss, the room is ready." Jack handed her the room card, he remembered that she was not willing to be called her title outside. Title matters nothing compared to her family background.
- She got up quickly, took the room card, and walked toward the elevator. Right at the door of the elevator, she saw a person coming in from the hotel entrance.
- The person who came in was wearing a well-cut dark suit. His gentle jade-like face was still shining and becoming more mature.
- "Well, I didn't expect you are the first 'old friend' I would meet here, Evan." Sofia thought. Evan's eyes seemed a little distracted. She had known him for so many years, and she knew that he was drunk.
- Now what? To cry and run to him, asking for the reason why he cheated on her? Absolutely not.
- "Jack, you may leave now. Please pick me up here at 7:00 a.m. tomorrow." She urged Jack to leave.
- "Okay, call me if you need anything. Miss." Jack said. Sofia had already left before his voice disappeared.
