In this place, the trainees generally came from affluent backgrounds, with Wendy being the wealthiest of them all. She had a particular fondness for rich and handsome guys like Ricardo. Several of them pulled out their basic makeup kits from their bags, applying lipstick and powder.

Sophie frowned. Ricardo's visit to Aldridge Global surely had a purpose.

Could it be because of the news she released yesterday?

It seemed unlikely. Would he come to Aldridge Global just to catch her in the act?

Sophie didn't have time to ponder further. Everyone was already running downstairs.

Wendy's father, Mr. Devin, was there as well, smiling so broadly his mouth could barely close.

Yesterday, James visited, and today, it was Ricardo. Was this some kind of godsend?

"Mr. Ricardo, all of our trainees are here."

Mr. Devin had summoned all the female trainees, each of whom looked at Ricardo with adoring eyes as if they wished their eyes could stick to him.

Ricardo's gaze landed on Sophie at first sight.

"Ms. Sophie."

Ricardo suddenly called out to Sophie, who responded emotionlessly, "Hello, Mr. Ricardo."

Ricardo called Sophie and everyone watched her with envy.

"Don't you have male trainees at Aldridge Global? Call them over as well."

Mr. Devin was stunned when he heard Ricardo's assistant's words.

Male trainees? What was so good about them? They were supposed to be for the wealthy ladies!

But since Mr. Ricardo's assistant had spoken, Mr. Devin immediately signaled to a manager by his side, who quickly went to call the male trainees.

The assistant added, "Wait, don't say it was Mr. Ricardo's request. Tell everyone to relax a bit so Mr. Ricardo can see their normal state."

"No problem! I support this!"

Mr. Devin agreed immediately.

This move made Sophie suspicious. What did Ricardo want with the male trainees?

In no time, the male trainees came downstairs.

The one leading them had an air of cool aloofness. Sophie couldn't help but take a second look.

She seemed to have seen him before on the training ground, likely the captain of the male trainees, Julian.

When Julian saw Ricardo, his brows furrowed slightly, but he didn't stop walking. Behind him, Johnny couldn't help but say, "This guy looks a lot like our captain, huh."

"Nonsense, that's Mr. Ricardo. How could he look like our captain?"

"But he really does look similar."

Ricardo, watching Julian and the others walk down, slightly smiled.

"These are our male trainees, and this is their captain, Julian. This is our female trainees' captain, Shirley. They are both pillars of our trainee team."

Mr. Devin introduced them, but Wendy was not pleased. "There are more pillars than just them," Wendy said.

Mr. Devin glared at Wendy, who then closed her mouth.

"Yes, quite impressive." Ricardo stepped forward, patting Julian on the shoulder, "Like a rising star."

"Of course! They are all carefully selected!"

Sophie saw a hint of animosity in both Julian and Ricardo's eyes. She frowned, not missing the murderous intent in Ricardo's eyes.

Did these two know each other?
