Chapter 674

Brandon's tall figure, backlit against the light, suddenly planted itself in front of her, the sense of oppression hitting her like a ton of bricks.

Sophia instinctively wanted to stand up, but Brandon lightly pressed down on her shoulder, stopping her, and took a seat next to her on the empty chair.

As he pocketed his phone, he turned his head to look at her.

Sophia: "A girl confessing to you."

Brandon: "..."

Sophia tried to recall the scene, "I just vaguely remember she was looking up at
