Sophie continued speaking with feigned concern. "Mr. Gray, I'm just worried that you've been misled. Sierra asked to break up with you and blamed the reason on the two of us.

"But what if she was the one who fell for someone else first? I don't mind being misunderstood, but I'm afraid you'll be hurt by what others might think."

Benson didn't reply, but his expression darkened. His fists clenched tightly at his sides. Her lips curled into a subtle smirk, relishing the triumph hidden in the shadows.
