Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 2221

Sophia had been feeling better these past few days and had already returned to work at the studio.

"Mr. Gilder!" Sophia beamed, her tone light and cheerful, "I won't be coming home for dinner tonight. I tried calling Grandpa Quintin but he didn't pick up. He's probably out and about with Grandpa Jarvis. Could you let him know for me?"

Jason glanced at his watch. "Not coming home? Where are you off to?"

Sophia was bubbling with excitement. "Robin said we could knock off work early today. We're going to grab dinner together."

As the evening drew in, Jason's expression darkened, and after a moment of silence, he asked in a low voice, "Will you be coming back tonight?"

"I'm not sure. We've got movie tickets, so after dinner, we're thinking of catching a film. If it gets too late, I might not return!"

"Alright."

After hanging up, Jason looked up at the dimming sunset, suddenly feeling the chill of the cold wind.

Ever since Sophia moved in with her mentor, she hadn't seen Robin Ziegler, keeping in touch via video calls instead. Today, Robin finally had some free time, and Sophia was naturally thrilled. She booked a table at a restaurant and got movie tickets, planning for the two of them to have a proper date.

At 7 PM, they met at Astoria, a quaint restaurant. Robin asked, "Why'd you pick such an upscale place?"

Walking arm in arm with him into the restaurant, Sophia replied, "You've been working so hard lately. I thought it'd be nice to treat you!"

Robin smiled warmly. "It's okay. It's all worth it for our future together!"

Sophia looked up at him. "But it still makes me worry."

Once seated and having ordered their meal, Robin asked, "Did you call Estelle about that matter I mentioned?"

Sipping her lemonade, Sophia bit her lip and said, "Robin, to be honest, I don't want to make that call."

Robin frowned. "Why not?"

Sophia explained, "Estelle isn't involved in the Lamont Group's business. I don't want to put her in a difficult position."

Robin chuckled lightly. "How could it possibly make things difficult for her? It's just a simple favor."
