Chapter 143

Brandon popped into Ephemora because there was some trouble at the hotel here. He didn’t want to stir the pot, but they didn’t get into the nitty-gritty of

Sophia was clueless about whether Darcy was still with the Starlight Group or not.

He looked just like he did two years ago, short and portly, but without the pep in his step he used to have. He looked way more worn out and down in the dumps.

As Sophia craned her neck to get a better look at him, Darcy glanced down at her, noticed the tea he’d spilled but just peeped it and didn’t even mutter an ‘I’m sorry’ before he breezed past her to greet the tall, skinny guy behind her with a warm double-handed wave, “Ms. Barlow.”

Among Sophia’s acquaintances, only Marian had it.

She couldn’t help but take a second look at the lanky dude-it was the same guy she’d bumped into in the Starlight Hotel’s underground parking lot two years ago.

Zachary caught Sophia peeking and glanced over at the pair before turning to her, “Do you know this guy?”
