Chapter 5: SOLD TO THE MAFIA BOSS

Everyone was already sitting on their chairs, talking to each other when I finally arrived with my hair all over my face because of running my way just to make it on time. “S-Sorry I’m late.” I said as I sat next to Sebastian. He smiled as soon as he saw me.

“It’s alright, Sophie. At least you came.” Said dad.

“Can you see yourself right now, Sophie? We’re having a dinner with a very important person and you’re there wearing a white t-shirt and a pair of black jeans with your hair looking like you just woke up?” my stepmother suddenly said to me.

I lowered my head, “I’m sorry, I just came from the school so I wasn’t able to change my clothes.”

“It’s alright, Sophie. Even if you wear rags, you’d still stand out.” Sebastian suddenly said so I nudged him when I saw Sera and Samantha glaring at him.

“Are you a fool? You just look like us so if you say that we’re ugly, it’s like you’re saying that you’re ugly too.” Samantha retorted.
