Chapter 2488

In the photo, it's Sophia and Connor, caught in a cozy chat at the coffee shop right across from the studio, where Connor slides a card across the table to her.

The angle of the shot suggests something more than a casual conversation.

Another picture captures Connor waving goodbye with a wide grin, as if he'd accomplished what he came for.

Sophia tries to call Connor, but after two attempts with no answer, her phone rings. It's her assistant, Tina.

"I'll be right there. Just try to keep things under control," Sophia responds, her voice steady but firm.

"Be careful on your way over," Tina adds, the worry palpable in her tone.
