Chapter 67: How Long Has the Secret Affair Been Going On?

Chapter 67 - 67: How Long Has the Secret Affair Been Going On?

Edward Harrison's performance was the finale, and he and Isabella Yates performed an original love drama. Edward's performance was very fitting, to put it simply, it made people deeply engaged, as if one could fall in love with him in an instant.

There was no suspense in this competition, and Edward Harrison won the championship.

First, Edward had gained some fame at the school, and second, his performance was truly impressive.

Eva Miller secretly led Sophie Smith backstage.

Edward had just changed his clothes, and when he turned around and saw Sophie come in, he was quite surprised.

"Little Sophie, why are you here?"

"Congratulations, Edward, on winning the championship."

Edward smiled at her, looked at her dotingly, and gently stroked her hair.

"Little Sophie, you look really beautiful today."

Sophie blushed and lowered her head, unable to think of anything to respond to Edward's compliment.

Isabella Yates walked in. When she saw Sophie, the smile on her face instantly froze.

"Isn't this the lead actress of City of Desire? What are you doing here?" Isabella never missed a chance to be sarcastic whenever she saw her, and Sophie had gotten used to it.

Sophie found herself in a difficult position, not wanting to be face-to-face with Isabella, especially after witnessing those things with Asher Land at the club last time.

"Isabella!" Edward exclaimed with some reproach, but surprisingly, Isabella sensibly held her tongue, not resisting at all. Since when did Isabella become so well-behaved?

"Let's go, let's have dinner. It's on me." Edward suggested.

The dinner was quite crowded; besides Eva Miller, Amy, Isabella Yates, Edward Harrison, and herself, there were also some of Edward's drama group classmates.

Though it was lively, Sophie selfishly wished for some alone time with Edward, as she didn't often stay at school, making it hard to see him.

She sat quite far from where Edward was, with Isabella sitting next to him. As the protagonists of today's drama performance, they had also unintentionally become the hosts of this banquet.

Watching Edward and Isabella weave through the crowd and receive congratulations, she couldn't help but feel a bit jealous.

"Today, I have something to announce to everyone." Edward stood in the center with a glass of wine, and Sophie looked steadily at him.

"Isabella and I have decided to be together."

Sophie's hand trembled, accidentally tipping over her wine glass, spilling wine on her long dress.

"Sophie, are you okay?" Eva softly asked.

What did he just say? He said he decided to be with Isabella, what does that mean?

Looking up in disbelief at him, she found his gaze resting on Isabella, who wore a sweet smile. She stood up, happily linking arms with Edward.

"Wow, seriously? You two hid it so well!"

"How long have you been in a secret relationship? It's not fair to only tell us now!"

"I already noticed you two were up to something, flirting during the drama rehearsals,"

"..."

The crowd started to jeer; Sophie's mind went blank, unable to hear what they were saying.

This isn't real! This absolutely isn't real!

Her anxious expression caught Isabella's eye. This is what Isabella wanted, to stab her heart mercilessly, making it hurt.

"Edward." Sophie suddenly called out to him.

For some reason, the restaurant atmosphere fell silent, and all eyes turned to her.

"Little Sophie, what's wrong?" Edward was still gentle, looking at her dotingly, but she knew that feeling wasn't the love she had assumed.

She really wanted to ask why, but the words stuck in her throat.

"I accidentally spilled wine on my dress earlier, so I think I should head back."

"Oh, alright, then take care on your way back."

As she turned around, tears flowed unconsciously, but fortunately, no one saw them.

It turns out, all these years, it was just her being self-delusional.

Sophie, you can finally see the truth now.
