Hearing that Sophie knew their wives, the two men immediately backed down.

Sophie smiled slightly and said, "I'm just borrowing her for a little while. It won't spoil your fun."

Seeing this, the two men naturally could not object further and had to let Sophie take Jean away.

Jean had drunk a lot and was barely able to walk straight. If it hadn't been for Sophie holding her up, she might have collapsed on the ground.

Upon seeing Sophie, Jean cried like a child. "I really didn't know this place was like this. If I had known, I definitely wouldn't have come..."

Jean clutched Sophie's arm, crying, "Sophie, I know it was all my fault before. I beg you, please take me away, will you?"

"The path was your own choice. What I want to know is, how did you get into this gala?"

Sophie knew Jean was a girl from a humble background with no wealthy family support. It puzzled Sophie how she managed to get a ticket to the Minton International gala. Jean lowered her head, bit her lip, and said, "I... I asked for it myself."

"How did you ask for it?"

Faced with Sophie's questioning, Jean hesitated for a long time and wasn't willing to reveal the truth.

Sophie coldly said, "So you're not telling? Then it seems we have nothing to talk about. I'll just send you back to those two men."

"No! Please don't take me back! I beg you!" Jean hastily grabbed Sophie, shaking her head frantically, fearing to face those two older men again.

Sophie coldly stated, "I gave you a chance. If you answer my question, I'll help you. If not, you'll have to face the consequences of your choices."

With Sophie putting it that way, Jean could only bite her lip, struggling to speak. "It was... from a director... he gave me the opportunity..."

Sophie raised an eyebrow and said, "You're still a trainee at Aldridge Global. Going behind Aldridge Global's back to meet with a director is a breach of contract."

"I just wanted to survive! I really wanted to make it. That director told me the Minton International gala was an opportunity and gave me his business card, saying he vouched for me, but I really had no idea this place would be..."

Jean had never seen such grandeur and did not know that Minton International's gala was a hunting ground for businessmen to satisfy their private desires.

"Which director?" Sophie asked.

"The one from the TV show the company was in contact with last time... He said he saw potential in me, so he gave me his contact. I was desperate..."

"You believed that trick?" Sophie was irritated by Jean's naivety. "That director sends you to the Minton International gala with his business card but doesn't come himself. With such a great networking opportunity, don't you think he would have wanted to mingle? You're just prey he's delivered to Minton International."

Sophie's words turned Jean pale. She didn't know! She didn't know any of it!

"It's the path you chose. You figure it out."

Having obtained the useful information she wanted, Sophie didn't plan on wasting more time with Jean. Jean hurriedly tried to call her back, but a hand pressed down on her shoulder from behind. When Jean turned around, she saw Gattlin.

Jean looked confused. Gattlin, with a smile on his face, said, "Ms. Jean, there's something I need your help with."

Moments later, Jean nervously approached Sophie with two glasses of champagne in her hands.

Sophie frowned slightly. "Why are you still looking for me?"

"You were right in your lesson. I realize my mistake now. I've come to thank you and to apologize."

Saying so, Jean handed one of the champagne glasses to Sophie.

From a distance, Gattlin and a maid watched the scene nervously. Only after confirming that Sophie and Jean clinked glasses and drank did Gattlin finally breathe a sigh of relief. "Now, tell Mr. Odie that the deed is done."

"Right away."

The maid hurried to the second floor to prepare the room while Gattlin looked at Sophie from afar, sneering, "Thought it would be tough, but they took the bait so easily. How foolish." Late at night, Odie pushed open the door of the guest room, which was dimly lit, the faint red light emitting a sensual aura.

A white mermaid dress perfectly outlined the woman's figure. Staring at the woman shivering on the bed, Odie sneered. "It seems you're nothing special."

The women sent to his bed were either seductive and passionate or fearful and timid. He had grown tired of it all over the years.

Still, this time, Odie patiently moved forward and tore off the tape on the woman's mouth.

At that moment, the woman stared at Odie with flushed cheeks, "Hot... help me... I feel so terrible..."

Hearing this unfamiliar voice, Odie frowned.
