Chapter 1609

"Be cautious of deception."

Jonah blocked Sophie's path, maintaining a distance from Reece, who had started to pull away from them.

His instincts warned him that there would surely be a trap ahead.

Sophie glanced at the contract in Reece's hands, knowing she needed it, but also aware of the danger looming ahead.

If Reece had indeed set a trap for her, their first course of action would be to get as far away as possible.

Reece nodded, saying, "You're afraid I've set a trap here, aren't you?"

Sophie didn't respond, but her silence spoke volumes.

Reece found her reasoning solid and shook his head slightly, adding, "It's sad to realize we don't even have this basic trust between us anymore."

"Don't try to play the sympathy card here. If you really wanted me to trust you, you shouldn't have deceived me in the first place."
