Chapter 98: The Ring Was for Anna
Sophia gave Jennings Xin emergency first aid, but the wound was deep and in a sensitive area, requiring hospital treatment.
None of the crew offered assistance; Sophia had to call Yang sister to arrange for Jennings Xin’s transport to the mainland hospital.
Mrs. Sullivan, thank you. I’m sorry I didn’t stand up for you earlier,” Jennings Xin said. shamefully.
Sophia understood; she was a minor actress with little influence.
“I don’t blame you, but I hope next time you’ll be brave enough to stand up for yourself, so those who want to help you won’t be discouraged.”
By the time they’d sent Jennings Xin away, it was almost dark.
Chloe wanted to sleep with Sophia, even bringing her luggage over.
The crew provided boxed meals, but Sophia, of course, didn’t need to eat them. Yang sister had the kitchen prepare a special dinner for her.
Sophia ate well, but Chloe devoured her meal.
“The boxed meals are from a restaurant on the mainland, shipped over by boat. They’re cold, oily, and taste awful. I’ve been eating them for days, and now I feel sick just looking at them.” Chloe sipped her seafood porridge, giving a satisfied thumbs–up.
Sophia gave her a piece of braised pork rib, urging her to eat slowly.
Sophia, it’s so good to have you here,” Chloe said gratefully.
Sophia smiled. “Tell Yang sister whatever you want to eat.”
After dinner, Chloe pulled Sophia onto the bed. Talking about the past, she seemed much more
at ease.
That night left a scar, and it’s unsightly, but it doesn’t hurt anymore. As long as I don’t focus on it, I can ignore it. Don’t be stupid and self–destructive. Look ahead, find happiness.”
Sophia held Chloe’s hand.“Lean on me if you’re tired.”
Chloe hugged Sophia, laughing.“You smell so good.”
“Don’t be a flirt.”
“Hee hee, Sean’s lucky.”
“Go to your side of the bed.”
“Sophia, that’s unfair! You let Sean hug you but not me.”
“He’s as annoying as you.”
Humph, you’re just pretending. You’re probably missing your husband already.” Chloe, exhausted from filming, fell asleep after a short while. Sophia lay with her eyes closed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
She didn’t want to wake Chloe, so she got up, put on her down jacket, and went outside. As she opened the door, the sound of the waves washed over her, as if the sea was at her feet. She

took a deep breath; the sea breeze was refreshing and soothing.
She pulled her jacket tighter, walking down the path to the beach.
She had to admit she was missing Scan.
She called him before dinner but couldn’t reach him. Now she tried again; his phone was still off.
She wondered what he was doing, if he was missing her too.
“There were flickering lights in the distance. She remembered the blue and white house and their romantic phone proposal.
But why were the lights on?
Who turned them on?

Sophia frowned and walked towards the house. She climbed the steps, following the path lined with fairy lights, reaching the blue and white house and seeing a He was wearing a black coat, his hands in his pockets, gazing into the distance.
Sean!
Sophia’s face lit up; she hurried towards him, but then saw a girl emerge from a tree hollow. She had short, stylish blonde hair, a black jacket, and an iron box in her hands. Seeing Sean, her

“Is this your secret hideout?”
“Did you put up all these lights?”
And this box? Can I open it? What’s inside?”
Ye Can smiled playfully, looking expectantly at Sean.
Sophia couldn’t see Sean’s face, only his motionless back, as if frozen in place.
“Why aren’t you talking?”
“My name’s Ye Can. What’s yours?”
“It’s cold out here. Can I go inside your little house?”
Sophia narrowed her eyes. She didn’t know why Ye Can was there, but it couldn’t be a coincidence.
“Honey?” Sophia called out.
The sound startled Sean; he turned, his eyes shifting from confusion to clarity.
He turned and strode towards her, enveloping her in a hug.
“When I got home from work and didn’t see you, I felt terrified.”
Sophia smiled.“What were you afraid of?”
I don’t know, but every second was torture.”
“I missed you too,” she said softly.
Hearing this, Sean kissed her passionately, his breath heavy and intense.

Sean realized someone was there, turning to look at Ye Can, his eyes narrowed.“Who are you? What are you doing here? Don’t you know it’s rude to take someone else’s things without permission?”
Ye Can pursed her lips, put down the box, and ran away.
Sean muttered softly, “She looks kind of familiar…”
But he didn’t think much of it, taking the iron box with Sophia.
“This box is rusty,” he said.
Sophia looked at the box, her heart sinking.
Her ring came from this box. He said it was for his future wife. She’d thought he didn’t mean any specific person, so the ring was hers.
Now she realized he’d just forgotten. He’d forgotten his fiancée was Anna. This ring was for his proposal to Anna.
“What’s wrong?” Sean asked, noticing Sophia’s pale face.
Sophia shivered.“Just a little cold.”
Sean put the iron box back in the tree hollow, then took Sophia to the little house.
“I think I left the key here,” he said, searching a recess in the wall by the door.
Looking at the house, Sophia felt it was like a magic box filled with secrets; once opened, those secrets would be revealed.
Regarding Sean’s past, about him and Anna, did she really want
Don’t look, Sophia said suddenly.
Sean looked back. “What’s wrong?”
“I… I want to go back to the villa. It’s warmer there.”
Sean paused, then nodded. “Okay.”

know?
Taking her hand, he noticed how cold it was and tucked it into his pocket.
Sophia leaned against Sean’s shoulder, walking towards the villa.
“They seem to be filming a night scene at the villa,” she said.
“I saw it when I passed by,” Sean replied.
“You passed by?” She thought he’d gone straight to the little house.
“Yes, I came to find you, but you weren’t there.”
“I went back to rest.”
וי
“Vivian said you were here, so I came looking for you.”
Sophia was startled.“Vivian said I was here?”
