George pursed his lips and quickly shut up.

James glanced at the phone. He didn’t expect it to be Sophia.

She was with another man, so why was she sending him a message?

Frowning, James opened Sophia’s message.

After looking at the pictures and the text, he finally saw a few cute smiling faces. James couldn’t help but smile.

Then, he replied, “It’s indeed very good! I wish you success in the competition.”

Sophia didn’t expect James to reply.

She had just placed her phone on the bed when it rang.

He picked it up and saw that it was James.

Sophia thought for a moment and sent a message. “Thank you. Are you coming back for dinner tonight? What do you want to eat? I’ll cook.”

Seeing the message, James’ smile widened. He curled his lips and replied with an “Mm.”

When the three people beside him saw this scene, it was as if they had seen a pig climbing a tree. Their faces were filled with shock.

George was the quick-witted one. He immediately came over, wanting to see whose news it was that caused this ten-thousand-year-old iceberg to have such an impudent smile on his face!

However, James was even faster. The moment George came over, he put away his phone and glared at George. Then, he looked at the shocked person and said indifferently, “I’m not playing anymore!”

“What?”

After James finished speaking, he strode away, leaving George and the others behind, looking at each other in shock.

When James returned home, Sophia was busy in the kitchen.

Seeing James return, she turned around and said with a smile, “Wait a moment. The meal will be ready soon.”

“Yes.” James said calmly.

He took advantage of this time to go back to his room to take a shower and change his clothes. He had just finished playing basketball and was in a hurry to go home. He did not have time to shower and was covered in sweat.

When Sophia brought the food to the table, James had just come out of the shower.

Gulp!

Sophia couldn’t help but swallow.

James, who had just taken a shower, had a very light fragrance on his body. His already handsome face was even more defined at this moment, and he had a noble feeling that strangers should not approach him.

Although he was wearing a jersey, it could not hide his well-developed chest muscles at all.

“Being hugged by such a man must feel very safe.” Sophia’s eyes involuntarily drifted to James’ body as she thought to herself.

Seeing Sophia in a daze, James said, “Can we eat now?”

“Oh, oh, of course.” Sophia realized that she was distracted and said in a panic.

What was going on? What was she thinking?

She and James were only engaged, and there was no emotional connection.

How could she let her imagination run wild when she saw his body!

Sophia shook her hair and threw these messy things to the back of her mind. She started eating seriously.

“Didn’t you go out today? Did you stay at home all day to finish your competition piece?” James asked casually as he ate.

“No, I went to see a very powerful lawyer with my friend at noon. You know, it’s about my mother’s inheritance.”

“Oh, I see. The work was perfect and would definitely win a prize in the competition.” When he heard that Sophia was talking about the inheritance at noon, James felt relieved for some reason.

“Thank you. I hope you can say that.” Sophia took a bite of the salad and said with a smile.

…

The national WM competition was held in the city of Paris as scheduled.

Many people came to the competition venue early to witness the birth of the award-winning work.

The contestants also confidently brought their friends and family to cheer for themselves. At the same time, they also hoped that they could witness the glorious moment of their award.

This included Vivian and her classmates from the Princeton School of Design.

When Sophia walked into the venue, the students from the School of Design surrounded Vivian as if she had already won an award.

“Vivian, you will be fine! You’re the only student recommended by our school to participate in the competition. This means that the teachers and leaders of the school think highly of you!”

“Yeah, we’ve seen your entry too. It’s definitely an award-winning work!”

“I’ve already booked the place to celebrate tonight. When Vivian wins the award, we’ll go and have fun.”

“I won’t go home until I’m drunk!”

The group of people followed suit.

“Oh, Sophia is really here? She really came to participate?”

The commotion in the crowd gradually quieted down after the classmate’s words.

“She actually came to participate? Could it be that the school had registered two classmates?”

“Impossible! My dad is a member of the school’s board of directors. I even specifically asked my dad, and the school really only recommended Vivian!”

At this moment, a student said, “Hmph, I think she deliberately wanted to snatch Vivian’s book that day, so she lied and said that she wanted to participate!”

“I’m afraid you came here today to beg Vivian for forgiveness, right?”

Hearing this, Vivian’s originally hostile face suddenly showed a smug smile.

She walked forward, looked at Sophia, and said in a superior manner, “Sophia, we’re classmates. I don’t mind that you stole my book.”

“If you really want to cheer for me, I welcome you.”

Before Vivian could finish her sentence, the students beside her could not wait any longer.

“As expected of our goddess Vivian. Not only is she beautiful, but she’s also kind.”

“Yeah, Vivian is so generous to someone who stole her reference book.”

“Some people are not professional and have bad character. We don’t need her to cheer for Vivian. Let her go.”

Sophia frowned at the scene in front of her and felt that it was noisy.

The corners of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a cold smile. Then, she directly bypassed Vivian and walked towards the contestants.

“Where is she going?”

“Is she really here to participate?”

Under everyone’s puzzled gaze, Sophia handed her admission ticket to the staff and successfully entered the contestant waiting area…

Behind Sophia, Vivian was digging her nails into her palms.

She quickly caught up with Sophia and shouted coldly, “Sophia! Wait!”

Sophia turned to Vivian helplessly and said coldly, “What are you doing?”

“What right do you have to participate? The school clearly only applied for me!” Vivian asked.

“Are you okay?” Sophia sneered. “The rules stated that only students from schools could participate in the competition?”

With that, Sophia glanced at Vivian and left quickly.

Vivian looked at Sophia’s back as she left, and a hint of viciousness flashed across her eyes…
