Sophia stared at Rebecca for a long moment. Her mind was spinning. Nothing made sense anymore.

"I don't understand any of this," she said quietly. Her voice was shaking a little. "Why would the heir to the West family be protecting me? I'm nobody special. My family... we're not important."

She looked around at all four women. They were so calm, so confident. Like this was normal for them.

"Something is really wrong here," Sophia continued. "Everything feels upside down. I'm getting scared now. I don't know what to think anymore."

Her hands were trembling slightly. "Who am I to deserve this? What did I do to get the attention of people like you?"

Rebecca watched Sophia's reaction. She could see the genuine confusion and fear in the young woman's eyes.

“Look, you don't need to worry,” Rebecca said softly.

“This isn't about you being special or important to us.”

She crossed her arms and leaned against the wall.

“The only reason we're here is because of our trust in Damien. That's it. N

    The three experts continued their praise, their voices filled with genuine amazement.“This is something we absolutely were not expecting,” the first expert declared, shaking his head in disbelief.“We came here today thinking this would be a routine authentication session,” the second expert added. “But we were completely wrong.”The third expert gestured broadly at the entire collection. “We were not expecting anything even close to this level of sophistication and rarity.”All three men looked at each other, then back at the company owner.“The quality and authenticity of everything here is beyond what we typically encounter,” the first expert continued.“We were not even expecting this kind of extraordinary collection,” the second expert emphasized. “These are museum-quality pieces - no, they're beyond museum quality.”The third expert nodded vigorously. “You have literally done an exceptional job here in putting all of this together.”“The research, the connections, the resource

    At that moment, after everyone had successfully taken their seats around the conference table, the company owner stood up and gestured dramatically toward the items displayed before them.“These,” he announced with obvious pride, “are the items that I have been able to acquire for today's presentation.”His voice took on a tone of reverence as he continued. “It took me tremendous effort - truly great effort - to obtain these pieces.”The owner walked slowly along the table, his hand hovering over various items without touching them. “It took me considerable time to literally put all of these items in place and arrange this collection.”His expression became more serious. “I had to make sure that I could actually secure them, because as you'll soon discover, they are very, very high-quality items.”He paused for dramatic effect, letting his eyes sweep across the assembled group. “And they are extremely rare to find on the market today.”The company owner's voice dropped to an almos

    At that moment, upon hearing what Sophia had just said, the company owner fell silent.His jaw was visibly tight, the muscles in his face twitching with barely suppressed anger.He stood there for several long seconds, clearly struggling to control his temper.Finally, he took a deep breath and seemed to force himself to regain some composure.He adjusted his posture, standing up straighter, and reached down to straighten his jacket with deliberate, controlled movements.“Well,” he said, his voice strained but attempting to sound reasonable, “I'm not going to escalate this issue any further.”He paused, looking directly at Sophia. “And the only reason I'm choosing to remain calm right now is because of you, Sophia. Out of respect for our business relationship.”The owner's expression remained tight. “That's why I'm going to just keep my composure and not let this situation get worse.”He cleared his throat, then continued with a more demanding tone. “But before we proceed any furthe

    At that moment, after hearing what the company owner had just said, Sophia nodded her head politely.“No problem at all,” she said with a calm, professional tone. “I appreciate you making these arrangements.”She paused, then continued with quiet confidence. “However, that assistance won't be necessary.”Sophia gestured gracefully toward Rebecca, Stella, and the other two women standing beside her.“You see, this is exactly why I came with my friends today,” she explained. “My friends are definitely going to tell me what to buy and what not to buy.”Her voice remained steady and assured.“They will advise me on what's worth investing my money in and what isn't. That's precisely why they're here with me.”Sophia looked at her four companions with trust and respect. “Since they are very good at what they do - extremely knowledgeable and experienced - there's no problem at all.”She turned back to face the company owner directly. “So I won't be needing the services of these gentlemen

    Upon hearing what the company owner had just said, Sophia responded calmly and professionally.“Well, I never actually planned for this,” she explained, her voice steady. “But since my friends - my close friends - wanted to come along, and since they decided to accompany me today...”She paused and looked at her four companions with genuine warmth. “I took it upon myself not to disappoint them or depress them by refusing their company.”Immediately Sophia turned back to face the owner directly. “So this is just how the situation worked out. You have nothing to worry about regarding their presence.”The company owner nodded his head, though his expression remained somewhat forced.“Well, no problem at all,” he said, though his tone suggested he wasn't entirely comfortable with the arrangement. “I was just surprised, that's all. Yes, I'm surprised you actually came with other people.”He then turned his attention to Rebecca, Stella, and the other two women.“It is so nice to meet all o

    Sophia and her four companions arrived at their destination.Rebecca stepped out of the car first, followed by Stella, then the woman from the Ancient Medicine Clan, and finally the fourth woman whose name had still not been revealed.Sophia came last, taking a deep breath as she looked up at the impressive building before them.“This is it,” she said quietly. “The meeting location.”The five women didn't waste any time lingering outside. They walked directly toward the entrance with purpose and confidence.As soon as they stepped through the doors into the grand lobby, heads began to turn.People who had been walking past stopped in their tracks.
