Upon reading through the contract once again, Zack reassured Sophia that all was well, as everything that needed to be amended was amended. Thus, Sophia signed it without hesitation. Meanwhile, Robin sat behind the counter silently without even acknowledging Mr. Reyes. The latter knew why she was behaving like that, as he swindled a lot of her money.

 

There were two copies of the contract, which would belong to the respective parties after both of them signed and put down their thumbprint. The landlord left after all was done, but Sophia wasn’t able to leave due to the heavy downpour, thus she sat in the shop.

Seeing the landlord just kills my mood, so I don’t feel like doing any shopkeeping today at all. I want to go on a stroll outside.”

Sophia was sitting by the window while staring into the distance when she replied, “Sure.” Her phone buzzed as soon as she said so, a call coming in from Ian, which she picked up immediately.
