After comforting Charlene, Sophia looked at Xena and said, “Let’s visit the Inferno Alliance.”Xena leaned back and said lazily, “I don’t want to go.”Sophia tugged at her arms. “Come on. You have to come with me. It’s so boring in the house.”“Am I supposed to be the third wheel?”“Well, you can always seduce someone.”“I don’t want to see him.”Sophia said smilingly, “I didn’t say who it is, but you’re already thinking about a specific person. So, who are you thinking about?”Xena said nothing in response. Then, Sophia tried to sweet-talk her. “Do you know what’s the worst feeling? Standing beside someone you love, but not being with them. Hamish has broken your heart for three long years. Don’t you want some payback?“If it were up to me, I would show up and ignore him. That’d drive him crazy and make him feel sorry for himself!”Xena glanced at Sophia. “You’re such a smooth talker. You should’ve used your talents in the marketing department.”Sophia kept quiet after that.

The four guys watched all the security footage. However, there was no sound and only visuals. Elliot was in deep thought as he watched, ‘My wifis brilliant and beautiful.’Chester thought, ‘Sophia’s so adorable.’Avery thought, ‘She’s so cute. So, it turned out Charlene went to the bar with them.’Hamish thought, ‘Xena lives up to her Shadow codename. She’s immaculate in all aspects.’Meanwhile, Xena looked at the screen blankly with inexplicable thoughts. On the other hand, something flashed in Sophia’s mind as she watched the footage. She abruptly said, “Hold on a minute.”Avery asked, “What’s wrong?”Sophia approached the screen and said, “Rewind it a little.”Avery used the mouse to do as she said.“All right, pause right there,” Sophia said before asking Elliot, “Don’t you think this guy looks like Ethan?”Elliot frowned and observed the screen. “You might be on to something. What’s he doing there?”Sophia replied, “I’m not sure. I remember wanting to chase after him for

Xena burst out laughing, but it was a heartbreaking one. Staring at him, she instinctively took a couple of steps back. “This is pathetic of you, Hamish. You made up a boring excuse to wash your hands of all responsibilities. Mary wouldn’t have become your fiance if you disagreed.”Hamish responded, “I wanted to go after you when you left, but Mary threatened to kill herself. Your mom called me and asked me to return to her. “Mary’s life hung by a thread, and your mom forced me to marry her. It didn’t matter if I was lying to make Mary feel better. I didn’t know Mary was playing one of her tricks, so I agreed.“After that, I never told her the truth because I feared upsetting her and worsening her condition. Your parents have been trying to bring us together for the past three years, but I’ve never even slept with her. You have to believe me, Xena…”Xena had had enough of it, yelling, “That’s enough! Stop telling me about your pitiful backstory! I don’t give a damn about it. Did I

The flight was scheduled for six in the morning. Ultimately, Avery brought Charlene along, but her ankle had yet to make a full recovery. She still had to shuffle sometimes. Sophia asked, “How is it? Does it still hurt?”Charlene was overjoyed. She couldn’t have hid the humor in her eyes even if she tried. “It doesn’t hurt anymore. It’s just that it’s still swollen a little, so I had to be mindful of it and avoid putting too much strain on it.”Looking at Sophia, Avery said, “You’ve got so many people to keep you company, but you just have to ask me to bring Charlie along. Do you like her this much?”Nodding, she said, “Mm-hmm. We’re friends, after all.”Avery said, “Perhaps I should make her your bodyguard. She can keep you safe and do whatever it is that friends do.”Charlene was shocked at that. She gave Sophia a panicked look. Sophia knew what she meant. Smiling, she said, “I don’t need protection. You’re the one who needs a bodyguard, Quintus. You don’t know how to fight,

The following day, Elliot brought Sophia to Westo. Emma’s grave was in the Ridge Cemetery, right beside her parents. They were here to pay respect to all of them.Little did she know she’d see two cars parked at Lingen Mountain. She asked puzzlingly, “Whose car are those?”Elliot recognized it instantly. “Your brothers are here.”She was bewildered. “What are they doing here?”He responded, “We’re about to find out.”Treading the path, they climbed the hill until they reached the cemetery not far from the villa. Several guys were standing in front of her mother’s tombstone. Elliot was right. They were her brothers.She started walking lightly without realizing it. It wasn’t as if she wanted to eavesdrop, but she was a little curious as to what they were doing here. Then, she began to hear their voices when she crept in closer. Donald said, “Greetings, Grandpa. Grandma. Aunt Emma. Allow me to introduce my siblings to you. You have Chester here. The guy standing next to him is
