"It's probably the new outfit that's coming out this year." Ryan said, "You can go online to see our brand of clothing and reply to me. Aphrodite clothes are very good. With them on, you'll be very beautiful, high-end and classy."
Sophia told him that she couldn't decide until she had seen the clothes. She knew nothing about Aphrodite. If they asked her to dress sexy clothes, she would not agree.
After hanging up the phone, she searched the official website of Aphrodite. The latest clothes were on it. It was winter, but the program was usually recorded indoors. With the air conditioner on, there was no need to wear very thick clothes. So, the sponsor might let her wear autumn clothes or even summer clothes.
She found the summer and autumn clothes, skimmed through them, and found that most were simple and elegant daily styles, which were acceptable.
Then, she was relieved.
She gave Ryan a call, "I agree. I'll contact you when I get back to Lands."
Ryan laughed, "Great! You're just my lucky star, Miss Green. Ha, ha, ha… Patton would be pissed off."
Sophia was surprised, "Patton?"
"Don't you know? Bertha is a subsidiary company of Patton Group. Eddie, the head of Patton Group, manages it now. It is the most important company of Patton Group," Ryan said.
Something occurred to Sophia when she heard the name "Eddie".
She hadn't seen him since the last time she met him in the park. Benjamin had said that he was one of the suspects in the lab fire. Sophia didn't expect him to sponsor the Super Quiz.
On this show, she might get a chance to meet this guy.
Soon after she hung up, she received a call from Bertha's staff, hoping she could wear Bertha on the show.
Sophia truthfully answered that she had promised Aphrodite and was sorry to refuse them.
The staff sounded like a young girl. Hearing Sophia's words, she was worried, "How can you trust Aphrodite? Their clothes are terrible. They are easily worn out. The materials are very bad. They are allergic. And the clothes are ugly, making people look old."
She was slandering the rival so bluntly. She was really a straightforward girl. Sophia thought
But she didn't change her mind. Ryan was a friend to her, and she was sure to help her friend. Ryan worked for Albert. Maybe this cooperation with Aphrodite was important to Albert.
She had to apologize again and hang up.
"Brother, Jess said she only got twelve female contestants." Dora walked to Eddie and put a file in front of him, "She also said that it was a pity that she couldn't win the girl in the best image. She had tried. She called the girl as soon as she saw the list, but the girl's phone was off. Somehow, the girl contacted Aphrodite first when she turned her phone on. So, we lost her. Jess didn't dare to meet you, so I'm here."
Jess was Eddie's secretary. After smashing the task assigned by her boss, she didn't dare to meet him and asked Dora, her boss's sister, to help.
Eddie threw the file aside with a poker face. "I knew it. I knew she would say yes to Aphrodite because she seems to be Albert's girlfriend now. Poor taste fool!"
Dora's eyes lit up, "Husband's girlfriend?"
After saying this, she suddenly realized that she had accidentally uttered her inner thoughts and hurriedly covered her mouth.
But Eddie heard it. He glanced at her and said, "He's rich. What's the big deal? I'm rich, too. He doesn't look as good as me. What national husband? If his picture is exposed, his wife's fans will definitely be disappointed."
Dora couldn't help saying, "He's very handsome."
Eddie stared at her, "You have no taste, either."
Then, Dora said, "By the way, Jess has just found that she is an excellent student, Sophia of Colin High School, on the Internet. I think she has a great chance to win the championship. If she's a husband... Mr. Pearson's girlfriend, then…"
She got excited as she said, "No wonder Mr. Pearson sponsored so much. If Sophia wins the championship, the money will belong to his wife, which made no difference to belong to him. Then, brother, your money…"
She looked at Eddie with some sympathy.
Eddie smiled. "That's not necessarily. Maybe the money …will end up in my pocket."
Dora paused. "You mean... Brother, I don't want to discourage you, but you don't have an advantage in fighting for a girl with Mr. Pearson."
"Who do you support?"
Dora smiled, "I'm just telling the truth."
She kept saying, "By the way, mom asked me to tell you something before I came."
"What?"
Dora took a step back and pointed at Eddie with an angry face. "You black sheep! How dare you compete with Pearson in money? Why don't you offer to teach fish to swim? Sooner or later, you'll ruin our family."
"Do you need to imitate mom like that?"

Sophia and Molly said goodbye to Aunt Mcdowell after breakfast. The driver helped to carry their luggage downstairs. When they got in the car, the driver started the car and drove in the direction of Lands.
Sophia was sleepy on the boring road. When she was about to fall asleep, she was awakened by a scream from Molly.
Molly excitedly stuffed the phone into Sophia's hand and pointed to the screen. "I've been chosen! Oh my god, I can't believe it. I thought I failed the audition."
Sophia took the phone and saw that the official website had released photos and names of the ninety-six contestants who had been selected for the season. Since it was a TV show, the contestants had agreed that the photos they uploaded when they filled out the registration form were available to the program group.
Molly was in the back, and Sophia was in the front.
She looked it up and saw that Charles and his girlfriend were also on the list. She didn't know the name of Charles' girlfriend. She recognized her from the photo. Under the photo was her name: Nina Perez.
At this time, Sophia's blog blew up.
Because someone soon recognized Sophia, the contestant in the Super Quiz, as the popular Sophia Green of Colin High School on the blog. After all, there were a lot of people who knew Sophia.. All Colin students knew her, and someone would tell people things about her.
