Daniel was confused,

"Bro, what's wrong?"

Vincent Xiao had never cared about the entertainment industry. Daniel had always seen him as reserved and work -oriented. Who in the entertainment circle could have infuriated this workaholic? Daniel felt obligated to find out.

Vincent Xiao did not reply to Daniel but hung up the phone instead.

'Who is bold enough to trigger my bro...?'

Daniel murmured to himself. He immediately asked someone to find the surveillance footage for elevator seven of Building B in the HS Business District.

"Mommy, I want this."

Jimmy pointed at the flower-shaped marshmallow, his eyes twinkling with desire.

"Okay",

Sophia mumbled under her breath, her eyes fixed on the approaching Vincent Xiao. She patted Jimmy's head and whispered,

"Your father's here."

Jimmy sighed and grumbled,

"Why did you come so soon? You are interrupting my date with mommy."

Tuning out his words, Sophia picked him up with one hand and paid the vendor with the other. She then walked towards Vincent Xiao with the large marshmallow in hand. Vincent frowned, jealousy written all over his face after seeing Jimmy in her arms.

He yearned to be held the same way.

"Mr. Xiao."

Sophia walked up to him and subtly bowed.

"Call me Vincent."

Sophia forced a smile. She thought,

'I wouldn't dare to even if you asked me to.'

"Well, since you're here, I will return your child to you. I happen to have things to do, so I'll be taking my leave."

Aware that Sophia was about to leave, Jimmy rattled,

"Mommy, you just said you were hungry, and you were taking me to dinner."

"What happened?"

"Why do you suddenly have something you need to do?"

"Are you going to eat alone?" "It's okay. My daddy is rich. He'll treat us."

Staring into Jimmy's eyes, Sophia's mouth twitched.

"It's your father's money. I wouldn't dare to go. I'm not someone your father should treat to dinner."

"No, Mommy, you must come along!"

"If I hadn't met you today, I would have been kidnapped and sold off."

"Mommy saved my life Mommy, please come"

Pleaded little Jimmy, tears welling up in his eyes.

In fact, Sophia was someone who could not be intimidated but could be swayed by soft and heartwarming gestures. She could not bear to see someone dear to her tear up. She liked Jimmy seeing him cry. She was at a loss.

"Baby, don't cry, don't cry..."

"If Mommy comes along, I'll stop crying."

"Daddy will buy us dinner."

Sophia could not stand to see Jimmy like this.

'Forget it. It's just a meal. Just think of it as me accompanying Jimmy."

"Okay, I'll go, I'll go."

Hearing Sophia's promise, Jimmy instantly stopped crying and turned to Vincent,

"Daddy, book a table for us!"

Sophia thought to herself,

'Surely, you made many actresses jealous with your acting skills.'

Before Sophia could regain her senses, she got into the car and was taken to a hotel by Vincent Xiao and Jimmy. It was not until all the dishes were served that Sophia came back to her senses.

Yes, she was not dreaming. She was having dinner with Vincent Xiao, the richest man in the city, and his son.

Sophia picked up her chopsticks, determined to eat and leave as quickly as possible. All of a sudden, the doors opened, and Daniel strolled in, dressed to the nines. He waved at Sophia, took a few strides and grinded to a halt beside Vincent Xiao.

"So, Sophia, I heard that you saved Jimmy today?"

Without looking up, Sophia smiled.

"It was nothing really. I just ran into him in the HS Business District. Then I called Mr. Xiao. That's the entire story."
