Chapter 390 Love Confession

The van barreled down the road, its destination unknown to Sofia. She had been thrust into this situation without any clue of where they were taking her. Rena had promised to deliver her to a place that Leonardo couldn't reach, but Sofia couldn't help but doubt it. In the short time she had spent with him, she had witnessed the extent of his capabilities.

"Oh no, they're chasing us," Enzo suddenly exclaimed, breaking the tense silence.

"Who is chasing us?" Sofia asked, her confusion evident as she strained to catch a glimpse of their pursuers through the windows.

Enzo didn't respond to her inquiry but instead cast a horrified glance at Rena, his expression filled with dread.

"Faster!" Rena instructed the driver urgently. Then, turning to Sofia, she asked in an unexpectedly harsh tone, "Do you have any tracker on you?"

Sofia, taken aback by Rena's abruptness, replied, "No, I don't have anything like that." She realized that they had made her abandon her phone earlier on the road, leaving her disconnected from the outside world.

"Who is following us?" Sofia questioned once more, trying to make sense of the unfolding situation.

"Your husband, Sofia," Rena yelled, shocking Sofia with her response. "I don't understand how they tracked our location and caught up to us so quickly," Rena muttered, more to herself than to Sofia.

"But why are you shouting at me, Rena?" Sofia asked, her annoyance starting to seep into her tone. Rena didn't reply but scowled in frustration.

Sofia glanced back and noticed several cars tailing them, confirming Rena's claims.

"What do we do now?" Sofia anxiously inquired, hoping for answers from her companions.

They remained silent, their attention focused on their phones as they rapidly tapped away. Enzo placed a call, seeking assistance from someone.

"They're still behind us. Yes, we need help," Enzo spoke into the phone urgently, his voice tinged with desperation. Sofia's suspicion grew. They were withholding information from her, and she hadn't anticipated this veil of secrecy. "Who are you asking for help?" Sofia probed, her persistence increasing.

"It's nothing, Sofia. We have contacts who are aiding us in your escape from Leonardo's clutches," Enzo replied nonchalantly as if it were a trivial matter.

"And who are these contacts?" Sofia pressed further, recognizing that if they were capable of opposing Leonardo, they must possess comparable power and wealth.

"You will find out very soon. Don't worry. We have got help," Enzo assured Sofia, his tone relatively polite.

Rena's anger reverberated through the vehicle, her screams filling the air. "Why the hell are they chasing us? God! You fucking idiot, drive faster!"

Sofia was taken aback; she had never seen Rena like this before. Normally calm and polite, this new side of Rena shocked her to the core.
