Chapter 117. Web of Lies

Sophie

Sophie stammered, embarrassed,

“I…I am sorry…’

Schwartz shook his head gently, amused. He sighed. It had been a long day. Tomorrow was going to be even longer. It was the day of the first Fight, the official inauguration of the Club fighting centre. He wanted to get back to his almost empty house and catch a few hours of sleep.

And return to the Club again the next morning.

It kept him going. This lonely road of his life.

Tiredly, he gesticulated at the girl.

“Just get in. It’s late. ‘ Turning away, he added,

“You won’t get any other transportation either at this time.’

As she still hesitated, standing there, immobile, he said in exasperation.

“Come on, girl. I want to get to my home too.

’It was perhaps the tiredness in the handsome face that made Sophie decide.

She nodded and murmured,

“Thank you….ummm…Sir.’

He nodded and the sleek sedan doors opened. She slipped in hastily.
