“But, Clayton, there’s nothing we can do now!” Wilbur replied. Even though they wanted to negotiate, the other party was not giving them a chance to do so. The situation was basically hopeless.

Hearing that, Clayton could only get up from the hospital bed. Since Sophie refused to meet him, he had no choice but to visit her himself.

Wilbur asked, “Clayton, you have yet to recover fully. Where are you going?”

“Bring me my clothes!” Clayton demanded. I can’t wait until I’m fully recovered. I might be dead meat if I don’t think of a solution soon.

“Clayton, you really shouldn’t rush this,” advised Wilbur, who was still worried about him.

However, Clayton ignored him. The former grabbed his clothes, got changed, and walked out of the ward.

Seeing how adamant Clayton was, Wilbur had no choice but to hurry after him.

When the evening self-study session ended, Sophie saw Clayton and his assistant waiting by the school’s entrance. They must be here to meet me. Good. He didn’t bring many bodyguards with him this time. He must’ve realized I couldn’t be harmed, no matter how many bodyguards he brought.

As soon as Wilbur spotted her, he rushed over. “Ms. Tanner, whatever demands that you have, we are willing to negotiate.”

“I have no demands!” Sophie replied.

“Please don’t be like this, Ms. Tanner. Everything can be discussed. Besides, this is a rather small industry. There’s really no need to force us into a dead end. We’ll still meet again in the future.” He was already being very mindful of his tone.

“Fine. Since you guys are so desperate to talk to me, I shall give you a chance.” She was not an unreasonable person, after all.

Wilbur was relieved to hear that from her. Truth be told, he feared she would put up a stubborn front.

“Don’t go with them, Sophie. Who knows what they plan to do to you?” Ysabelle grabbed Sophie’s hand to stop her from leaving.

Patting the back of Ysabelle’s hand, Sophie assured, “Don’t worry. I’ll be fine.”
