Chapter 2

"You're truly unruly, uneducated, and nothing more than a frog in a well, thinking

you're so great!"

Sophia scoffed with disdain.

"That's why I despise talking to someone as lowly as you!"

Alex chuckled, "Believe me, I am trying to be honest here.

"You? A powerful man?" she sneered, glaring at him with utter disgust.

"You can't even begin to understand how powerful I am or the people I've encountered who are far more powerful than you. They could erase you with just a sneer."

Alex laughed.

"The powerful men you know might be the ones seeking my favor, pleading for me to marry their daughters just to stay in my good graces. Trust me, you're

incredibly lucky to have crossed paths with me."

What a braggart!

Sophia rowed her eyes in disgust.

She wanted nothing more than to throw something at his smug face.

How shameless could he be, pretending to be so powerful when all he had was an old military backpack?

"You might pretend not to know me and try to bind me with marriage just to get my money," Sophia retorted. "But I warn you, that's never going to happen. If my family finds out I slept with a poor man like you, you'll be erased from this world. So you'd better keep your mouth shut and forget everything that happened here."

"I don't want to hear another word from you. Now, get out of this room," she demanded, her eyes blazing with fury.

"But..."

Alex tried to protest.

This was his room.
