Mistaking the CEO for a Gigolo

“Sophia!”

A cry sounded, and a woman suddenly burst in, rushing up to hold Sophia’s arm. “Sophia, I’m Avril, Murphy’s daughter.”

Sophia instantly sized Avril up. She had only been back at Wicked Palace for a short while – she had not gotten the chance to meet the rest of Murphy’s family.

“What a beautiful young lady you’ve grown into now, Avril! Why don’t you go head back with me?”

“I can’t, Sophia.” Avril turned to glance at Stephen shyly. “My love is here, so I’m not going anywhere unless he goes with me.”

Portia, who was standing beside Stephen, burst in flames when she heard Avril’s words.

She could not believe that the woman would dare to gesture at Stephen with that suggestive glance in front of everyone.
