Meanwhile, Sophie Kenwick couldn''t tell the difference as she was used to living avish lifestyle in the past.

The next morning, Sophie woke up early and apanied X Quest to Quest Group.
Although she was said to be X''s bodyguard on paper, she was now known as Stanley Batton''s younger sister. On top of that, she was wearing luxurious brands from head to toe. Her entire body was glowing.
She didn''t seem like one of X''s subordinates at all.
They looked like equals when they stood next to each other.
X started working as soon as she entered the office, while Sophie casually wandered around.
She said she wanted to get used to the environment, but in all honesty, she was bored.
As she walked past the pantry, Sophie saw a few women drinking coffee while talking about her.
"The girl our President brought with her is Stanley''s younger sister. D*mn!"
"I honestly thought Mr. Batton was cheating. It turns out that wasn''t the case."
"That girl is lucky to have been adopted by Stanley."
"One of my friends is Zack Cassidy''s friend. Zack said that she was adopted because her parents passed away during an earthquake seven to eight years ago. It''s quite pitiful."
"Pitiful? I want to be this pitiful, too. We''re all humans. Why does she get to join the upper-ss just because her parents died?"
Some people empathized with Sophie, while others were jealous of her.
However, Sophie didn''t care.
She only cared about two people in this world; One was X, and the other was her brother.
As for the rest, she couldn''t care less. They were free to think and look at her in any way they wanted.
Quest Group was massive. By the time she had finished walking around, it was already noon.
She returned to X''s office to have lunch with her. X then gave her the task of delivering a contract to a partneringpany.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner.
X also requested a cup of coffee from across the building she was visiting.
Once Sophiepleted her task, she went to the cafe across from thepany.
Because it was a workday, there were few people inside.
Sophie bought the cup of coffee without any hups before walking out of the cafe with the coffee.
She was about to find a corner
where nobody else was around before teleporting back to
office. A sapphire-blue

The road in front of Sophie was full of potholes. Puddles had formed because of the melted snow, so when the car sped past, dirty water sshed all over her, ruining her white outfit instantly.
Sophie felt annoyed.
She stopped walking and yelled in the car''s direction. "Aren''t you
educated? You should slow deel
when you drive past potholes!"
Right then, the sports car made an abrupt halt and stopped in a parking lot in front of her.
Shortly, a beautifuldy with curly hair stepped out from the driver''s side.
She was wearing a pink velvet sweatshirt without any pants and a pair of pink velvet boots toplete her look.
With her chin slightly raised, she seemed somewhat arrogant.

He wore a white shirt and a pair of long, gray pants.
