Chapter 12: Meeting Me Is Your Luck (Part 1)
"Is that you?" Sophie was genuinely surprised. Why was he calling her?
"What do you want from me?" She intentionally pretended to be busy, walking out of the dormitory to avoid arousing the suspicions of the others.
Honestly, is this woman missing a few screws? Any woman, upon hearing Asher Land's call, would be eager to rush to him. Why is she so oblivious, asking all these questions? Oh right, this little wildcat is different; she has her heart set on opposing him!
"I'm calling you to come; that's all you need to know."
"But you'll have to give me a reason." She wasn't foolish enough to approach this dangerous and hateful man again.
"..."
Asher Land felt his patience being worn thin by this woman, yet she continued to persistently ask why.
"I want to discuss the matter of the lead actress role in City of Desire with you," he said, uncharacteristically patient.
Sophie was momentarily stunned as if her brain had short-circuited, then she snapped back to reality. So, did Asher Land mean she had a chance to be the lead actress in City of Desire? The thought made Sophie ecstatic.
