Irene waltzed into the backstage area and smilingly said, “I heard that you were having a product launch today. So, I specially came by to have a look. Is there anything I can do to help?”
As soon as Sophia heard those words, she knew why Irene was here. What help can she give when she is so scared of dogs?!
She would never send an invitation to Irene to attend her new product launch. I knew Irene wanted to come—she knew Michael would be attending.
During this period, Irene had been trying to find an opportunity to meet with Michael. Unfortunately, her circles had nothing to do with his circles; there were no joint projects that they were working on together; he never returned to the Fletcher Residence; she didn’t know his daily schedule; and she couldn’t enter The Imperial even if she wanted to.
She had two reasons for doing that. She wanted to remind him of their memories together. At the same time, she also wanted Sophia to exit the game on her own. Contrary to her expectations, he seemed to have completely let go of the past. Even Sophia seemed like she was unaffected by it. Despite reminiscing with Michael in front of her, she had not shown any reaction. She is so horrifyingly thick-skinned! Even though people all over the country are wishing for their breakup, she stubbornly continues to hold on! How shameless of her!
Still, Irene didn’t believe that the love between Michael and Sophia was really that strong. As long as I exist, there will be a chink in their armor! But first, I need to get closer to Michael. She might not have known his daily schedule, but he would definitely appear at Sophia’s new product launch for her brand. Sure enough; she learned that both Michael and Harry were present today.
Then, Sophia and Irene made small talk as they headed toward the backstage area. However, Sophia was cursing Irene in her heart, Came here to help? Yeah, right! You came here uninvited; why are you making it sound like you’re so noble?!
Having heard that Irene had arrived uninvited and was currently heading toward the backstage area, Sarah was frantic as she rushed about like a whirlwind. “Maria, bring Snowball here. Master Sam, can I borrow Corrado for a moment? Stan, remove Judge’s leash. Old Wolf, let Bubbles go. Unleash it.”
…
Irene was dressed glamorously today, and her makeup made her look very youthful. Over the years, she had carefully maintained her skin. So, she still looked as young and supple as she was when she was younger.
Unexpectedly, they were greeted by two gigantic dogs sitting side by side as soon as they entered the backstage area. They were two poodles as large as gorillas. Even while sitting, they were as tall as a young girl’s waist. Irene had a fear of dogs since she was young.
Knowing that many dogs would be present today, she had mentally prepared herself. Even so, she still turned pale with fright and subconsciously stepped back in fear when she saw the two monstrously huge giant poodles. “What a huge dog! Bring it away! Bring it away!”
Both the giant poodles were not on leashes. When they saw Sophia, they dashed over immediately. Meanwhile, Irene was so scared that her face became bloodlessly pale. I knew Sophia had a big dog, but I didn’t think it was this huge!
Sophia quickly grabbed both giant poodles by the collars and brought them over to Irene. “Irene, don’t be fooled by their size. These two puppies are very well-behaved. Why don’t you touch them and see?”
Irene was so scared that she blanked out. Why are there so many dogs?! All the dogs were not on their leashes as they surrounded her and sniffed at her. As a result, she was so scared that she couldn’t speak. Thus, Sophia hurriedly said to her, “Hey, Irene. We have many dogs here. Why don’t you go and have a seat at the VIP seating out front?”
No, I should say I’m leaving Michael in Bubbles’ care. Bubbles is going to protect him. If Irene dares to approach again, I’ll set Bubbles on her!
