That day, Sophia brought her assistant, Faya, to the hotel entrance to meet Jose. Together, they took the car Howard had sent to the hot spring resort.
Every time Jose and Sophia met, their greetings were always warm, filled with hugs and cheek kisses. They had already discussed everything beforehand, and Jose was more than happy to help her with the project.
Standing in the hotel lobby, Sophia felt a sudden impulse—an urge to go upstairs and surprise Capone.
But in the end, she held herself back.
They would see each other soon at the gala. Why was she acting like she couldn't wait even a second longer?
With a capable assistant by her side, Sophia worked with ease, her efficiency soaring.
The last dessert finalized was the Brandy-Soaked Black Cherry Soft Cookies . She wasn't even sure if Christina and her PR team had tasted them yet.
As she made them, memories of that night at the resort kept resurfacing in her mind, a soft smile lingering on her lips the entire time.
