The next second, the man tried to make a move on Sophie, only to have her grab his hand.

“I told you to get lost. Did you not hear that?” Sophie snapped. She had never been a patient person, but unfortunately, her appearance always made her look meek and vulnerable.

Alas, the man wasn’t about to give up on his lewd advances. “Come on, missy. I’m really amazing in bed!”

“What are you doing?” Letitia suddenly shouted as she glared at the nosy Sophie. “I had my eyes on him first.”

The latter arched her brows. My goodness. This girl sure is an odd duck!

“Fine. In that case, sorry for bothering you,” Sophie muttered before letting go of the man’s hand and returning to her seat.

As luck would have it, Felix entered the bar at that moment. “Wait a minute. Are my eyes deceiving me? That’s Sophie, isn’t it?”

Upon hearing that, Tristan hurried over to take a look for himself. Ah, he’s right. That is Sophie.

She had worn a sleeveless sequin dress, and her long hair was draped sensually over her shoulders.

As she sat on the swivel chair with her legs crossed, there was no doubt many men would have had the temptation to take her home.

Naturally, Winter had also noticed Sophie. After all, Charles had arranged the party at Nocturnal for her so they could celebrate the success of her new perfume.

“Well, well, well. Who’d have thought that a high school student would take a shine to Nocturnal? Then again, who wouldn’t be dazzled by the resplendence here? I suppose it’s even more exciting for Ms. Tanner since she had spent time in a place like Horington,” Winter scoffed. “That said, don’t you think she’s dressed a little too provocatively?”

In all honesty, Winter hated seeing Sophie near her. No matter where the latter showed up, she’d immediately steal all the limelight, and Winter would no longer be the center of attention.

“Watch your words, Winter,” Charles warned.

What’s the use of making these comments anyway? The more she says, the more she’ll seem rude.

Winter shrugged.

“I’m not suggesting anything. I just don’t think it’s safe for a young lady to come to a place like Noctural alone.”

Felix was instantly rendered speechless. I can’t believe she’s shameless enough to say that! It’s wild enough that she’d be worried about something untoward happening to Sophie.
