Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

"Sure, I've been wanting to try something different lately."

The casual remark Ricardo made to the middle-aged man from Minton International reached Sophie's ears. Sophie couldn't help but frown.

In her past life, Ricardo had been utterly devoted to Rowena, but something seemed off when she heard this.

Sophie immediately looked around, noticing that most of the female stars were under thirty-five, stunningly beautiful, and elegantly poised. When they had first entered, they seemed like the queens of the venue, but now they were naturally being held in the greasy embrace of older men, some even boldly initiating kisses.

The atmosphere was becoming increasingly unsettling, and Sophie's instincts told her it was time to leave.

Just as Sophie was about to exit, a bouncer stopped her. "The manager said you're to accompany Mr. Ricardo today."

The bouncer's words left no room for refusal and even carried a threat.

Sophie coldly retorted, "I'm not accompanying anyone. Let me through!"

Her response drew mocking laughter from two bouncers, one of whom grabbed Sophie's arm and said, "Where did this disobedient little star come from? Forgot the rules of Minton International, have you?" "Rules? Minton International's rules involve having guests accompany drinks?"

"Guest? You're just a product. How dare you elevate yourself? Let me tell you, you're not just accompanying him for drinks. You're expected to provide more intimate company!"

The bouncer's attitude was aggressive, but Sophie wouldn't tolerate it. She swiftly freed her arm from the bouncer's grip.
