Chapter 66: She Thought He Liked Her
Sophie glanced at the calendar; today was the day of Edward's theatre performance.
A week ago, Edward called her and asked her to go watch the drama competition, and Asher Land kept his word by giving Sophie a day off, so today she could finally go back to school to enjoy Edward's play.
In her wardrobe, she picked carefully and finally chose a light blue strapless floor-length dress, quite formal. She let her long, straight black hair hang beautifully behind her. Today, she had a different kind of beauty. She put on light makeup, although she usually went without makeup. For some reason, today she wanted Edward to be amazed when he saw her.
The drama competition was held in a stadium that could accommodate more than ten thousand people. When Sophie found Eva Miller, Eva had already secured a great spot to ensure they could see the stage clearly.
"Sophie, I'm so grateful to you!" Eva was so emotional she almost cried when she saw Sophie. She had asked Sophie to put in a good word for her with Asher Land to get a role, but she never thought she would be given a second lead role, which left her pleasantly surprised.
"Silly girl, just seize the opportunity and perform well." Eva was her best friend and had helped her a lot, so doing this favor wasn't much.
"Of course, I won't let you down." Eva vowed, "I didn't expect President Land to be such a good man. You see, you're not even that close to him, and yet with just a word, he gave me a second lead role!"
A word? Sophie really couldn't talk about it; only heaven knows how much Asher, that sly fox, took advantage of her!
"Hey, Sophie, when will you put in a word for me with President Land?" Amy came over seriously and said to her.
"Well..." Sophie's heart skipped a beat; were they imagining that man to be too nice?
