"You!..." Charlotte Harrison pointed at Sophie Smith, her face instantly turning ashen.
"Don't doubt my decision."
Heh, being with Asher Land for so long, her manner of speaking started to resemble his somewhat; she had more or less become a reflection of him.
Sophie Smith's sudden firmness left Charlotte Harrison at a loss, her lips parted but she couldn't say a word.
The atmosphere grew increasingly awkward. Sophie Smith knew she no longer belonged here.
"Dad, I'm leaving. Rest assured, the money will be in your account in no more than three days."
Christopher Smith wanted to say something, but Sophie Smith went out without hesitation.
She sprinted all the way, heading for the stairs, feeling that if she slowed down even for a second, she would lose control over her erupting emotions.
She ran far, so far, until she couldn't run anymore. Finally, she hid in the dark corner of a wall, leaning tight against it, allowing her tears to flow freely.
