Surprisingly, Cillian began provoking her.

“Mr. Larkin, to be honest, I don’t think I can learn much in military school.” Even the teachers in school might not be able to hold themselves against her when it came to fighting.

If that was the case, she saw no reason to waste time on the endeavor.

Cillian didn’t know what to say, not having expected such a response from her.

This girl sure can be cocky. But oddly enough, it’s not annoying. On the contrary, I like it a lot.

“I’m serious. I don’t need to go to military school if I want to learn how to fight.” She had had to survive for a long period in places far more ruthless than military school, so she didn’t see much value in what the lessons in military school could bring her.

“Eustace is right. You aren’t easily convinced by others. No matter the case, I do owe you a big one this time. Come to me directly if you need something in the future.”

Cillian gave her his private phone number.

“This is my private phone number. I will be the one to pick up if you contact this number!”

He had plenty of time. Besides, he wasn’t expecting to convince Sophie right away.

“Okay.” Sophie didn’t refuse that offer.

After all, his offer would make things much easier in Jipsdale.

She showed Cillian out after that.

Yale asked immediately, “Soph, what did Mr. Larkin say to you? He seems to have taken a liking to you. How did you get to know him?”

He was extremely curious.

“I just happened to save his pet, so he came to offer his gratitude.”

To save herself some trouble, Sophie didn’t intend to tell him she had actually saved Cillian.

“I see.”

Yale believed in her.

However, Josiah didn’t, but he didn’t press for the truth upon noticing that Sophie didn’t want to talk about it.

“Soph, how does Mr. Larkin intend to show his appreciation?” Yale was ultimately more interested in that. Nothing else mattered as long as he could reap the benefits.

“He wanted to offer me some money, but I didn’t take it.” The question was already grating on Sophie’s nerves, so she escorted Josiah inside instead.

“Soph, I don’t need you to be anyone outstanding or powerful. All I wish for is your safety and happiness!” Josiah was aware that being acquainted with people like Cillian wasn’t necessarily a good thing.

“Don’t worry, Grandpa. I know what I’m doing.”

Working alongside powerful leaders came with its own risks.
Surprisingly, Cillion begon provoking her.

“Mr. Lorkin, to be honest, I don’t think I con leorn much in militory school.” Even the teochers in school might not be oble to hold themselves ogoinst her when it come to fighting.

If thot wos the cose, she sow no reoson to woste time on the endeovor.

Cillion didn’t know whot to soy, not hoving expected such o response from her.

This girl sure con be cocky. But oddly enough, it’s not onnoying. On the controry, I like it o lot.

“I’m serious. I don’t need to go to militory school if I wont to leorn how to fight.” She hod hod to survive for o long period in ploces for more ruthless thon militory school, so she didn’t see much volue in whot the lessons in militory school could bring her.
