253 Their Connections 3 The Sinners's Queen

"Thank you very much, Sis. I love you!"

"You take care. Don't stay up late."

Steffy radiated happiness after spending some time with her sister. With bags in her hands, the girl happily waved both hands at Sofony whose face was showing through the open window of the car. The latter laughed as the paper bags in her sister's grasp also slightly shook in the air.

"What a lively girl."

After ensuring that the girl safely entered the house and that George was nearby acting as the bodyguard, she ordered the driver to take her to Starlight.

The moment she arrived at the meetup place, she didn't glance at the smiling face of Sofia nor Chris who looked like a macho middle-aged man.

Her eyes only scanned the other woman in the place. Blonde hair, blue eyes. Soft features that could easily lift up the mood whenever she was smiling and evoke endless pity and gloom from the hearts of other viewers if she was in a downcast mood.

'It's funny that a snake has managed to enter my territory without me knowing...' 

"Miss Silver..." Nervousness was written all over Maila Asuncion's face.

The two other people in the place looked mildly surprised, especially Sofia. When Sofony entered the place her face had been that of the short-haired mature beauty.

As long as it was a stranger, both Chris and she preferred not to divulge their identities as system users. How did the female non-host know guess who the short-haired girl really was?

Sofony's eyes narrowed and pressure immediately showered upon the signed artist.

Cold sweat did not only run down Maila's back, but beads of them also started to appear on her forehead and neck.

This made her feel the illusion that she was only a few centimeters away from death. Just how strong this woman was? Even Gu Yimu couldn't make her this fidgety and anxious!Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

When the former spy was on the verge of breaking down, the pressure akin to a huge boulder pressing on her heart suddenly disappeared.

She gasped desperately for air and looked at Sofia. When she checked, the woman was only standing there with lowered head, looking so respectful and watchful of her owner's action. 

If it was not Sofia who silently pleaded mercy for her, does it mean the other woman just chose to not test her anymore?

Maila weirdly couldn't put her heart at ease.

This was the case even after she saw the short-haired woman directing a soft and warm smile at her.

Sofony said, "Relax now. You passed. I believed in Sofia."

The highest level host in this unassuming place within the fifth floor of the entertainment building changed faces within three seconds. The transformation had been very magical. But the only normal people there did not seem very surprised.

Was Maila putting up a brave front to impress everyone around, or she was already used to seeing things like this? Perhaps, the blonde had yet to recover from the 'test', hence the lack of energy to react?

Sofony actually didn't care.

While Maila also couldn't guess what was on this lofty woman's mind. She had been too distracted by the otherworldly charm the same smile had brought to her when Sofony resumed her real appearance. This Silver heiress had the same black eyes and black hair as her friend, Sofia, but there was something in her which overflowed with charm.

Was this the aura of someone in command of tens of thousands of livelihood? Or just something inherent to people from aristocratic families?

Sofony sat across the woman. Three years of constant mingling with learned and scheming people was enough for her to carve etiquette, momentum, and elegance to her bones. The resulting action made her appear more elegant than a swan, regal like a princess. 

"Let's hear your tale then. Miss Sofia told me you have some important things to tell. Would you please start now?"

Maila reorganized her thoughts for some time before opening her mouth.

"First of all. I'm merely a peripheral, member..." Sofony narrowed her eyes at the hesitation that the woman showed.

"I supposed you're saying you're not sure of your own standing there?"

The bitter smile flickered across those blue eyes didn't garner the intended response from Sofony.

The heiress only smiled, her eyes urging the other to continue. At their side, the middle-aged man dressed like a normal manager lowered his head while Sofia looked nervously at her Original.

After a cough, Maila said, "Before I disclose anything, I want to be as honest as possible, but please note that there's a chance that the information I have could possibly be intentionally adulterated. I'm not really someone important, so they could possibly have given me false information."

"Sounds like there are so many brainy people in your organization," Sofony indifferently commented.

The idol wanted to refute she had already turned against that evil group. But the heiress' penetrating gaze stopped her. Unlike before when she spoke with this beautiful businesswoman as a normal talent, those black eyes were telling her that if she doesn't start speaking of something worthwhile now, she would die!

The fear made her confess of everything she knew.

"... If my conjecture is correct, even though I was asked to check the changes in this country mostly about the supernatural people emerging here, there is actually someone important that they're trying to probe... They told me to be careful and discreet. All they want is information about Alina. But if something happens at a certain district of this city, I must report it to them ASAP..."

"Someone else..." Sofony's countenance darkened, reminded of the person who truly brought her to the darkest period of her life.

The middle-aged man crossed his arms and leaned his back against the wall as he asked, "Which particular district? It's not Central, right?"

Maila turned to look at the only man in the room. She restrained the frown and thought that this person could be someone as dangerous as the inheritress.

She honestly answered, "... South." Hesitation flashed across her face again before she added, "... I have a colleague who used to be stationed here before me... And the place she was tasked to watch out is the Western district."

Chris looked down. The information seemed useless, but still, he noted it in his mind.

As for Sofony, her smile widened.

A gaze of approval was thrown to Maila.

However, no one knew what was running on her mind.

The beaming expression she put on looked so fake and ill-omened. Yet due to her eyes that no one seemed to be able to fathom, it was hard to know if she was conjuring something nasty in her mind, or simply appreciating the female friend her clone brought over.

Perhaps, it was the latter?

After all, a few minutes later, the three system users of Alina City departed. But to the non-host's horrors, she was forcibly made to tag along under the orders of the Silver's heiress!
