"Do you think I'm that kind of person?"

Patrick suddenly blurted out, interrupting Sophia's thoughts.His well-defined hands maneuvered the steering wheel deftly.Patrick's question bothered her in so many ways.

"I just said those things to tease Lilith, Mr.Evans.You don't have to take it seriously" Sophia explained.

She then lowered her head after she said those words.

There was a moment when Sophia felt like she was about to show her true feelings, so she immediately hid it.

Just like what she just told Lilith, even if Sophia knew that it was true, she would still deny the truth.

Sophia was used to hiding and ignoring the truth.It became her habit and a sort of shield, among others.

Even if the person sitting next to her was Patrick, she couldn't have great expectations.

"Oh, is that it?"

The car abruptly stopped when Patrick suddenly stepped on the brake that almost made Sophia hit her head on the dash.

"Get out, '' Patrick ordered without any emotion visible on his face.Sophia kept her head down so she could keep her face hidden from Patrick.

Before her tears fell, she quickly opened the door and got out.She had no sense of direction and had no idea where she was, but she walked in the opposite direction of Patrick's car unconsciously.

As Sophia walked away from his car, Patrick still looked at her in his rearview mirror.He had no idea where his sudden outburst came from.

However, he had to admit that he had lost control of his emotions tonight.The gloomy sky darkened even more.

As the rain began to fall, thunder erupted, and lightning flashed in all directions.

The city's neon lights looked blurry, and the cold weather started to get heavier.

Sophia slowly raised her head and looked directly at the sky.She liked the feeling of the raindrops as they touched her face.

Somehow, she felt refreshed and satisfied with just standing in the rain.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have any other options to let go of her frustrations, and it would just be bottled up inside of her, which could eventually make her crazy.

As she was enjoying the rain, another car slowly pulled over and stopped at where she was standing.

Was this the same car that had been following them earlier? Sophia couldn't see anything on the inside because the car's windows were tinted.

Suddenly, the car door opened and out came a man who opened an umbrella for her.
