True Love Deserves a Second Chance

After speaking, Sophia turned and left.

She was never one to be used, especially when this incident involved her family.

This was something she could not tolerate.

She loved acting, purely for the love of it, not for fame.

She always despised the dirty deals in the entertainment industry.

If it weren't for that, she would have been famous long ago.

Sophia had just left the company when she received a call from her father, Gordon.

She immediately answered the call.

Gordon's kind and gentle voice came through.

"Honey, are you okay?"

Sophia smiled, "If I can answer your call, it means I'm not dead yet."

"How can you talk like that? You're so beautiful, you can't just die like that. I will make sure the Cross Family gives you an explanation. It's one thing for them to break off the engagement, but to harm you behind your back, I absolutely cannot tolerate it."

"Are you planning to break ties with Mr. Cross Sr. for me? Haven't you always respected him?"

Gordon snorted, "In front of you, no one is worth mentioning. That Daisy has been spoiled by the Cross Family. If she doesn't get a proper lesson, she won't know who not to mess with."

It was the first time Sophia had seen Gordon so angry.

Their family and the Cross Family had been friends for generations, always maintaining a good relationship.

The older generations of both families had always looked out for each other in business.

Now, Gordon was willing to confront the Cross Family for her, which made Sophia feel warm inside.

The feeling of being valued by family was the most heartwarming thing.

Sophia smiled lightly, "I'll handle this matter. You don't need to get involved, so as not to damage your relationship with the Cross Family. I'm different; I'm the younger generation. I can deal with Daisy myself."

"Alright, just be careful. Daisy uses her illness as an excuse to act recklessly."

"I know, I won't let her die."

Gordon nodded heavily and added, "By the way, I need your help with something. Do you remember Mr. Murphy's son, Tommy? He got into Hudson University and is going there to register tomorrow.

He's not very familiar with the place, so I want you to look after him."

Sophia was a bit surprised, "The kid who was always good at studying? He's going to college already?"

"Yes, if he hadn't broken his leg while skiing before the exams, he would have gone to college last year. He's a year late."

"Alright, give me his number, and I'll contact him."

After hanging up, Sophia received the phone number from Gordon.

She saved the number in her contacts, noting it as 'Sweet Brother.'

Then she dialed the number.

The phone rang a few times before a warm, pleasant, and mature male voice answered. "Hello, who is this?"

Hearing the somewhat unfamiliar voice, Sophia frowned slightly and tentatively asked, "Is this Tommy?"

Tommy Murphy's heart skipped a beat when he heard the voice, and he responded, "Sophia, it's me."

"I'm so happy you still remember me after all these years."

Tommy smiled, "I've watched your movies and remember your voice."

Sophia smiled, "You're still so sweet. When do you arrive in City B? I'll treat you to a meal."

"I just got off the plane and was about to find a hotel to rest before going to the university tomorrow."

"You don't need to find a hotel. Come to my place. I'll take you to Hudson University tomorrow. I'll send you the address, and you can take a cab here."

A joyful smile appeared on Tommy's handsome face, and he said, "Alright, see you soon, Sophia."

Sophia immediately went home to tidy up and ordered a few dishes.

Just as she finished, the doorbell rang.

She quickly ran to open the door, and a tall, upright figure stood in front of her.

The boy was about 6 feet tall, wearing a simple white T-shirt and jeans.

His handsome face bore a sunny smile, with dimples faintly visible at the corners of his mouth.

Seeing her, Tommy nodded politely and warmly greeted, "Sophia."

Sophia excitedly looked him up and down, "Is this really you? How did you grow so tall and handsome? You must be a heartthrob for many girls."

Tommy smiled, "Stop teasing me."

"Come in quickly. I ordered your favorite dishes. I wanted to take you out to eat, but I've been a bit busy lately and worried about being seen, so I had to have you eat at my place."

Tommy put down his luggage and looked at the table full of dishes, saying, "You didn't have to order. I can cook for you."

Sophia looked up at him, full of surprise, "You're so handsome and considerate. You must be very popular with girls. Do you have a girlfriend? If not, I can introduce you to someone."

Tommy's ears turned a bit red, "No, but I do have someone I like."

"I didn't expect someone as excellent as you to have a crush. Tell me who the girl is,

and I'll help you get in touch with her."

"No need, I want to pursue her myself."

"You're really a responsible and determined young man."

Tommy looked at Sophia with his beautiful eyes and said warmly, "Sophia, I'm nineteen now. Don't treat me like a kid anymore."

Sophia smiled and ruffled his hair, "But in my heart, you'll always be the little brother I protect."

"But I don't need your protection anymore. I can protect you now."

"I know, you've grown up and become a man."

She pointed towards the bathroom, "Go wash your hands, and we'll get ready to eat."

Tommy got up and walked into the bathroom.

Suddenly, he heard a man's voice outside.

Alexander opened the door and saw the table full of dishes.

A pleased smile appeared on Alexander's face, "If you want to thank me, you don't

have to go through so much trouble. Just sleep with me."

Sophia glared at him, "You're overthinking it. This isn't for you."

Alexander looked at her, puzzled, "Sophia, are you a pig? Ordering so much food for

yourself? If you want to be nice to me, just say it directly."

After saying that, he picked up the utensils to eat, but Sophia pushed him away.

"I said this isn't for you. If you want to eat, wait for my guest."

"Guest? What guest? I don't see anyone."noveldrama

Alexander looked around the room and immediately noticed a black suitcase and a men's backpack next to the sofa.

He instantly became unhappy and pointed at the items, questioning, "Sophia, you

found another man behind my back? Tell me, who is he?" Sophia glared at him, "Don't talk nonsense. He is just..."

Before she could finish, the bathroom door opened.

Tommy walked out, with water droplets still on his face.

The water droplets slid down his well-defined jawline and into his strong chest.

The white T-shirt was also wet, showcasing his chest muscles vividly.

Seeing such a handsome guy in Sophia's house, Alexander's anger flared up.

He immediately walked up to Tommy, his face stern, and asked, "Why are you in my girlfriend's house?"
