Sophia pretended to be shocked. “Mister Lucas, do you have any proof I was behind the fliers? You shouldn’t accuse me if you don’t have any proof. I swear I’m only here to make sure Corinne is okay as Jeremy’s friend. I mean, I thought it’s the least I could do since Jeremy is not with us anymore…”
