Inman's boyfriend, catching wind that Sophia was the studio's director, swaggered over with a drink in hand, trying to schmooze. Sophia wasn't fond of his slick demeanor and quickly excused herself from the private room.
She washed her face in the restroom and then ordered a drink, settling in front of the railing to watch the dance floor below.
The noise was deafening, and Sophia didn’t hear someone calling her name until they were right behind her, asking, "Sophia, is that you?"
She turned around, surprised, and then recognized the girl standing there.
It was Anna, Robin’s assistant, someone Sophia had encountered a few times during visits to see Robin. They were acquainted.
"It is you!" Anna said, approaching with a smile. "Long time no see. Haven't spotted you at the company visiting President Hester lately!"
Sophia offered a polite smile in return but remained silent.
Anna continued, "The company just landed a huge deal, and President Hester invited us out to celebrate. Should I let President Hester know you're here?"
"No, thanks!" Sophia quickly declined. "I’m here with some colleagues anyway, and we're about to leave."
Reading the room, Anna cautiously sat down beside her and asked, "Sophia, did you and President Hester break up?"
Sophia nodded, "Yes."
"That explains it!" Anna muttered to herself.
"What do you mean?" Sophia inquired.
Anna's face twisted into a sneer, "No wonder Diana has been marching into President Hester's office more boldly these days. People in her department say she’s been acting like she owns the place. So that's the situation."
After finishing, Anna probed further, "Did you and President Hester break up because of her?"
