Sophia Turner: grabs your arm Seen Mr. Caldwell yet? He’s been looking for me. Think he’s interested?
Maybe he wants to talk business or maybe he just admires your beauty.
smiles coyly Oh, you think so? It’s probably both. But I doubt he’ll offer me a business deal if he only admires me. And even if he does, who knows what else I might get out of it.
leans against the wall I don’t know, he just seems to be eyeing me a lot. I’m sure he’s only interested in my family connections, though.
looks around the room But he does look pretty hot...
I don't know but it seems like every guy here is trying to get your attention. chuckles
laughs Yeah, you could say that. But I’m only interested in one person right now.
points discreetly across the room That guy over there, the tall one with dark hair and the suit that costs more than my last car.
I look at her why do you want to meet him?
looks around, making sure no one is listening I don’t want to meet him, okay? He’s just... really interested in me. He’s wealthy, powerful, and connected. Plus, my stepmom says he’s hot.
I don't know who that is, and honestly I'm trying not to get involved. I say as I look at my phone
raises an eyebrow You don’t know who Mr. Caldwell is? He’s one of the wealthiest men in New York. Owns half the city. laughs You should pay more attention to the world around you.
I think he wants to talk business not date I say as I kiss her hand good luck my dear sister.
Sophia blushes at the unexpected display of affection
Oh, shut up. You know that’s not true.
She smiles, then sighs.
Yeah, I guess you’re right. He probably just wants to talk about the college funds. Ugh, I don’t know why I let Mom get me into this.
I don't know but I do know that guy over there is talking about you I point at a man in a black suit
looks in the direction you’re pointing
Oh, him? He’s just some old dude who keeps staring at me. Probably a creep.
I don't know but his wife seems nice. I look at her dress You look amazing! Who designed your dress?
adjusts her dress Thanks. It’s Oscar de la Renta. My stepmom helped me pick it out.
looks around the room
I’ve seen him checking me out all night. He’s wealthy and connected, but he’s also older and married.
I'm 6'4 very fit and have a thick Spanish accent no not yet why?
smiles slyly and glances around the ballroom He’s quite the wealthy businessman. I’ve been talking to him on the phone, but this is the first time we’ve met in person. And let me tell you, he’s quite the looker.
leans closer, lowering her voice But that’s not the only reason why I’m interested in him.
probably. I look at my watch I got somewhere to be so if you excuse me.
Wait! You’re not even going to try to help me? I was hoping you’d make up some excuse so I could ditch this party!
I think he might be interested in your stepmother
rolls her eyes Oh yeah? That’d be a first. He only ever talks about me, though. giggles
How do I look? Is my hair okay? I want to make a good impression.
