Chapter 424 Not That Easy

Perrin and Stanley appeared to have a lot to catch up on, so Sophia quietly left the ward after peeling some apples.

She turned the corner after the stairs and spotted Lukas on a phone call some distance away.

The rather chilly breeze that day was warmed by the bright sunlight, making for rather pleasant weather.

Sophia's long dress was practically made for that weather.

Since Lukas was busy, Sophia turned away and checked her phone for any messages.

There was a text sent by Alexander twenty minutes ago asking if she was free for dinner that night.

Sophia considered her schedule before firing off a reply: Sure.

Someone called her name right after she sent the text message. She looked up to see who it was.

A middle-aged, suit-clad man approached her. Sadly, his beer belly ruined the effect of his sharp suit.

When he noticed Sophia raising her head in his direction, his eyes lit up with delight. “Hello there. My name is Horace Cardette. Pleased to make your acquaintance.”

As he spoke, he lifted his hand, blatantly jingling the keys to a Ferrari.

This was the first time Sophia had witnessed someone boasting their wealth so flagrantly.

A laugh bubbled out of Sophia as she stared at the man. “I'm sorry. I'm not a fan of befriending strangers.”

When Sophia smiled, she was positively enchanting. Her eyes were mesmerizing when they crinkled in joy.
