Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 735

Sophie stood up, her departure unhindered. Everyone had just witnessed Odie defend Sophie's honor by having Ms. Leticia removed, so no one dared to stop her.

As Sophie made her way to the restroom, she looked around cautiously. Suddenly, a pair of hands emerged from the shadows, pulling her into a secluded hallway.

Before Sophie could scream, a hand covered her mouth.

Taken aback, Sophie recognized the man from the engagement party she'd attended. His face was hidden behind a silver mask, and his body was clad in a sleek black suit.

"Stay still," the man's voice was husky.

Sophie noticed security passing by the hallway they were hidden in; had she not been pulled aside, they would have discovered her.

"This isn't the way to the restroom," Sophie frowned, asking, "Who are you?"

"This place isn't for you. Go back to where you came from," the man's voice was disguised, likely altered by a voice changer.

Sophie glanced at the hand gripping her arm, then swiftly pulled away, saying coolly, "We don't know each other, do we?"

"Yes, we do."

"Then what does my business have to do with you? Why help me?"

The man didn't respond, instead turning to leave.

Sophie quickly noticed a gold card in his hand and blocked his path, asking, "You have a gold card?"

"This? Yes."

"Are you a regular here?"

"You could say that."

"Could you take me upstairs? I'm curious."

Sophie's eyes pleaded with him. She couldn’t discern his expression behind the mask. However, his momentary silence gave her hope.

"Why do you want to go up?"
