Upon hearing those words, the few people whispering amongst themselves around the area turned their attention toward the speaker.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Lenora paused for a moment before subtly nodding. "Jonas is our friend."

A look of envy appeared in the ex-classmate's eyes as they turned to Lenora and said, "Ms. Wilkin, Sophia, could I ask you both to help me get Jonas' autograph?" "I want it! Please..."

"Me too! Thank you, Sophia! Thank you, Ms. Wilkin!"

"I also want his autograph! Sophia-"

Before Lenora could even speak, Sophia had already slapped her chest in agreement, saying, "Sure! No problem!"

"Sophia, you're truly wonderful!"

"Thank you, Sophia!"

"Sophia, you must be pretty close with Jonas, right? He even brought you here personally."

Zephyr's gaze was deep and mysterious.

Numerous people were engaged in conversation with Sophia.

A glint of envy flashed in Serena's eyes when she saw the scene. She then clenched her fists tightly. Why? Why do our ex-classmates and Zephyr like her more than me? How could I possibly fall short when compared to Sophia? Someone else asked, "Sophia, do you know any other celebrities?"

Sophia let out a bekch from the wine. "Of course! I also know-"

She was bending her fingers, about to reveal the name of the celebrity.

Interrupting her, Lenora asked, "Soph, have you had enough to eat?"

"I'm full." Sophia suddenly changed the topic and uttered, "Where's the wine? Is there any left? I want to drink!"

"No. You can't drink anymore. We need to head back."

"No! I want to drink more!" Sophia pinched her brows, reaching out to grasp Lenora's arm, her eyes already struggling to focus.

"No." Lenora stood up, attempting to help her to her feet. "We need to go home now."

"Hey, Ms. Wilkin. If Sophia doesn't want to leave, let's sit for a while longer," an ex-classmate suggested.

Sophia lifted her gaze to Lenora, and her face held an expression of childish defiance. She pouted and declared, "I'm not leaving! I want to drink!" Mon,

Lenora had no choice but to lean in and whisper in her ear, "Do you really want Serena and Zephyr to see you making a fool of yourself while drunk?"

Upon hearing that she might embarrass herself in front of her sworn enemy and ex-boyfriend, Sophia shook her head vehemently. Abruptly standing up, she exclaimed, "No! Let's go home!"

"That's more like it!" Lenora helped her up, leading her out. She then said to the others, "Soph's had a bit too much to drink. We'll leave first!"

The others didn't try to persuade her further. They simply said, "Sophia, don't forget to get Jonas' autograph!"

"Don't worry! I won't forget!"

Once they reached the underground garage, Lenora helped Sophia into the back seat. "We'll swing by the Fuller residence to pick up Hattie. If you're not feeling well, feel free to take a nap in the back seat." Sophia remained silent.

After they left the private room, her mood unexpectedly took a dip.

In the dim light of the evening, Lenora was attentively driving when she suddenly heard a sobbing sound coming from the back seat.

She glanced in the rear-view mirror and noticed that, unbeknownst to her, Sophia had begun to cry, her face streaked with tears.

Lenora was taken aback, and she almost forgot to hit the brakes when the car arrived at a red light. "Soph, what's wrong?" she asked.

Having been friends with Sophia for many years, it was the first time Lenora had seen her cry so heartbrokenly.

Sophia cried and murmured, "Why has he returned? He left so resolutely back then... Why must he return?"

Lenora remained silent, not interrupting.

Perhaps seeing Zephyr that night stirred up the heartbreaking events from many years ago.

Lenora was not making things up. She had known Sophia for three years, and Sophia had never mentioned Zephyr to her. It was as if he never existed.

Throughout those three years, Sophia was always cheerful and exuberantly friendly every time they met.

Everyone had their own share of sorrow. It was just that she chose to hide hers, burying it deep within her heart, meeting life with a smile.

Had it not been for this reunion, that obscure chapter of her life would likely have remained forever buried in the darkest corner of her heart.

At this point, Lenora finally understood why Sophia enjoyed collecting pictures of male idols, and why she liked inviting male waitstaff to join her for drinks and songs, yet she had never gotten into a relationship. Perhaps it was because she had never truly forgotten Zephyr in the depths of her heart, or it could be that

her heart had been so deeply wounded that she no longer dared to believe in love.

"I went out of my way to beg him to stay... Yet, he still left... He was gone for seven years. Why is he back now?" Sophia choked out through her sobs.

The trembling voice in the midst of crying made Lenora's heart unbearably distressed.

She had never seen Sophia in such a state of distress before.

Seven years prior, Sophia had just started attending university.

"Nora, you have no idea how much I loved him back then... My parents wanted me to study abroad, but I couldn't bear to leave him, so I persuaded them to let me stay... However, he suddenly decided to leave without leaving any room for reconsideration... Although he has returned, why must he appear before me?" Sophia didn't stop mumbling, but her voice gradually faded until Lenora could barely make out what she was saying.

Gradually, Sophia fell asleep in the backseat, her face marked with dried tear stains. Her lips moved slightly as if she was whispering in her sleep.

Upon arriving at the Fuller residence, Lenora gently alighted from the vehicle to fetch Harrietta.

She then said to Harrietta in advance, "Ms. Tortell has fallen asleep in the car, so you'll be in the passenger seat. When you get in the car, please don't speak loudly."

Harrietta obediently nodded.

The car drove into the residential area, coming to a halt in the underground parking garage.

Lenora gently roused Sophia from her slumber, saying, "Soph, wake up! We're home! You can continue sleeping once we're inside."

After being called twice, Sophia finally opened one eye and yawned. After that, tears started to stream down her face.

She squinted at the view outside the car window, her voice laden with fatigue. "Are we home already?"

"Yes. Let's go upstairs to continue sleeping."

"Oh."

Sophia leisurely climbed out of the car.

After stepping into the elevator, Sophia leaned against the elevator wall listlessly and closed her eyes.

It seemed she was genuinely very tired.

The elevator dinged once before it stopped.

When Sophia opened her eyes, she met Lenora's gaze, which was filled with concern.

Puzzled, she asked, "Why are staring at me?"

"I'm worried you might not be able to cope."

Shocked, Sophia responded, "What? You're really underestimating me, aren't you? Just because of Serena and Zephyr, those two pieces of trash, you think I'd lose it? That's giving them too much credit!"

Lenora didn't know what to say in response. Well, I wonder who was the one sobbing uncontrollably in the car just a moment ago. It seems she has forgotten everything after a good sleep. Forgetting might be for the best. I prefer the fearless Sophia. "That's good, but..."

"But what?"

"Well, according to Serena's way of thinking, to outshine her, you'd need to find a boyfriend who's even more outstanding than Zephyr. It would also serve to make that Rubbish Yankovich regret. Have you ever thought about that?" Sophia furrowed her brows, deep in thought. "However, how am I supposed to find a boyfriend who's even better than Rubbish Yankovich?"

Zephyr was the top student in their graduating class. After graduating from Jacaster, he had the caliber to enter any top-tier university through the university entrance exam. Rumor had it that he had been doing quite well overseas in recent years. Otherwise, there was no way he would have dared to return to his homeland.

Most importantly, he was quite good-looking.

Those as accomplished as he was weren't as handsome as him, and those of similar attractiveness couldn't match his accomplishments.

After much thought, Sophia thought of someone and said, "Actually, there is this one person..."

Immediately, Lenora asked, "Who?"

Sophia paused for a couple of seconds and said, "Tyrant Fuller!"

Lenora was rendered speechless.
