"So, boss, when are we leaving for the search?" asked Aaron, knowing that Sofia was also going to the ancient heritage city for the shoot.

"No need. I am going alone. If I need any help, I will send a message. Stand by near the ancient city in case of emergency."

"Ok, boss," replied Aaron, his eyes shining like a dog finally acknowledged by its owner.

"Cough, can I also come along?" suddenly interrupted Jab.

"Sure, your health is all good now," said Sofia after completing Jab's check-up. After checking the overall situation of the gang, Sofia left the base.

When she reached the Tang mansion, it was already dark outside. After freshening up, Sofia started packing her luggage as she would be leaving for the shoot early tomorrow morning.

Suddenly, her phone rang. Seeing the notification of a new message from an unknown caller, she opened the message.

"Good night, my savior. Wish you good luck on your journey."

Seeing the message, Sofia knew it was from Christ. It was strange, but she recognized it was Christ at a glance.

"Oh, thank you for your concern, Mr. Roy, and may you have a bad night full of nightmares," replied Sofia playfully. Her eyes were filled with a crafty smile, like a cat that had stolen a fish.

"Ouch, the savior's words hurt my fragile heart," quickly replied Christ. Sofia imagined Christ's face with a grievous expression while reading the message, just thinking about it gave her goosebumps.

"Are you really Christ Roy?" replied Sofia with an expression of doubting life.

"Of course I am the Christ Roy. Otherwise, who would have the audacity to impersonate the identity of the young master of the Roy family?"

Sofia could feel his narcissistic personality from afar while seeing the text.

She was really not in the mood to chat with such a moody person right now; she needed energy to travel tomorrow. After giving a lukewarm response, she went to bed.

Here, in the Roy family mansion, in Christ's room, Christ was looking at the documents that contained all the details of Sofia from childhood until she went back to the Tang family.

He was surprised by her changes but was more attracted to the new Sofia. On impulse, he had texted her. He had never approached a girl before; he was always aloof and cold. This was the first time he had started to pay attention to a girl.

What struck him as unusual was the way he felt in his heart whenever he interacted with Sofia.

Living a life that often felt mechanical and devoid of genuine emotion, he was taken aback by the profound impact this girl, whom he had scarcely met more than twice, had on him.

She somehow managed to stir emotions within him that he had long thought dormant. Driven by an almost unconscious desire, he began texting Sofia.

He wasn't entirely sure of his own motives, but he sensed that through her, he might discover hidden facets of himself, sides of his personality he had yet to explore.

As he awaited her replies, he noted the lukewarm nature of her responses. Surprisingly, he did not feel disappointment. Instead, a dark glint flickered in his eyes, revealing a predatory determination.

He saw this as a challenge, a game he was determined to win. Sofia had awakened something within him, and now, more than ever, he was resolved to delve deeper into this newfound emotional territory, with a calculated intent to ultimately win over his prey .

Early in the morning, Sofia left the Tang mansion for the airport. She sent a message to John that she would reach the airport in an hour.

The whole crew was leaving for the ancient city together. When she reached the place where the crew had gathered, John approached her as soon as he spotted her. Sofia and John started talking.

When the crew saw Sofia, they were shocked. Sofia had her share of rumors in the industry; it was said that the true daughter of the Tang family was an ugly duckling who did not have the noble bearing of the Tang family. But what they saw was totally different from the rumors.

The Sofia before them was beautiful beyond words, but what was amazing was her temperament—cold like an ice queen and noble like an aloof immortal.

Her blue eyes looked like they could not accommodate anyone, yet people found her eyes so mysterious that they wanted to explore their depths.

"Wow, I saw a fairy today!" screamed one of the crew members, her eyes locked on Sofia. The other crew members understood her feeling as they were also shocked by Sofia's appearance.

With a sigh, the crew concluded that they had truly met a beauty.

"This week is the luckiest time of my life," said one of the crew members excitedly about the upcoming days.
