The Indifferent Ex-Husband Heartstrings in the Mall of Fate

Chapter 750

"Where are you now?" Brandon asked. "I'll be there soon."

"I'm at home," Sophia replied softly.

"Alright, I'm heading back now. Just stay put and don’t go anywhere," Brandon said.

"Okay," Sophia murmured. "I'll wait for you."

"Good."

Brandon ended the call with a brief response. As the light ahead turned green, he gripped the steering wheel, making a sharp turn

and heading back the way he came.

Sophia stood there, phone still pressed to her ear even though the call had ended. Her lips were pursed, and she seemed reluctant

to put the phone away.

Kent watched her anxiously. "Well? What did Mr. Crawley say?"

"I should be the one thanking you," Sophia replied quietly. "If Brandon lost the port because of me, I'd never ive myself. I'd
