When Zephyr cover with her phone, Sophia didn't want to take it, but with so many people watching, she

had no choice but to reach out and accept it. She wiped the phone screen and said, "Thank you."

"Don't mention it. It's not a big deal," Zephyr said with small smile. His gold-rimmed glasses shimmered. with a

captivating metallic sheen.

Sophia asked indifferently. "What brings you here?"

"I heard the view around here was quite nice, so | cto clear my mind. | didn't expect to run into you."

Sophia cast him a dubious glance.

Zephyr turned his head to glance at the thief pinned down by a passerby on the ground. He then took out his

phone and dialed 911 to report the incident.

After hanging up the phone, he said, "The police will be here soon, let's wait here for a bit."

Lenora quickly strode over. "SugarSoph, are you all right?"

Sophia assured, "Don't worry, you guys go ahead. Once the police arrive and take my statement, I'll meet up

with you."

"What is he doing here?" Lenora glanced at Zephyr standing next to her.

Sophia rolled her eyes, shooting Zachary a glance. "He claimed he chere to clear his mind, but who knows!"

Zachary, the subject of the insinuation, remained calm, lifting his gaze to glance at Zephyr.

For a fleeting moment, their eyes met. Zephyr then averted his gaze, letting it fall upon Sophia. Zachary also

shifted his gaze and offered a meatball to Harrietta in his arms.

Lenora understood. "Then I'll wait here with you."

"No need, we're already pressed for time. You should go ahead with the cultural excursion.

"Givea call once you're done."

"Okay,"

Lenora turned to Zachary and said, "Let's go."

As the two crossed paths, Zephyr caught a fleeting glimpse of Zachary's profile and felt a sense of familiarity

wash over him as if he had seen his face somewhere. However, the familiarity wasn't due to any resemblance

between Zachary and Ezekiel. Yet he couldn't recall where he had seen it before.

Chapter 283 A Relentless Nuisance

Perhaps a brief encounter when Zachary was on a business trip abroad.

Zephyr watched as the two departed, casually asking. "Is that Zachary Fuller, the newly appointed chairman of

the Fuller Group?"

"Yeah

"Didn't they get a divorce?"

"Yes, they're divorced, but Zachary is similar to a relendess nuisance that won't let go, Sophia said wistfully.

Ignoring Zephyr's expression, she went over to the two men, holding the thief, and thanked them. She offered to

treat them to a meal once they'd given their tatements.

One of the men remarked, "No need, this is not a big deal. If you ask me, you should treat that young man to a

meal. Without him, we might not have been able to catch the thief."

Sophia glanced back at Zephyr, smirked, turned around, and reassured with a smile, "Don't worry, Ill make sure

to treat him to a meal. You two should calong as well."

"It's fine. You don't need to." The two men waved their hands in refusal.

Sophia headed to the supermarket in the scenic area and purchased swater and gifts for the two men.

Before long, the police arrived. They collected surveillance footage and took statements from a few individuals.

Then, they escorted the thief away.

Sophia watched as they walked away, releasing a sigh of relief. She called out to Zephyr, turned around, and

started to walk away. As she walked, she dialed Lenora's number. "Everything is good now, I'm leaving ""Wait."

""Anything else?"

"Didn't you just say that you're going to treatto a meal?"

"When did | ever-" Sophia began, her words trailing off as her memory surfaced. Her expression. darkened

slightly. "I was talking to the men, so you don't have to take it seriously."

"But, | did."

Meeting Sophia's displeased gaze, Zephyr responded with a slight smile, adding, "I've already decided what |

want to eat. As the esteemed young miss of the Tortell family, you won't be stingy and take back your offer,

right? Besides, they haven't gone far. As he spoke, Zephyr glanced in a certain direction.

Sophia followed his gaze, spotting the two men engaged in conversation not too far away.

She gritted her teeth. "Fine, I'll treat you since you insist."

The call connected, and a soothing voice cfrom the other end. "SugarSoph, are you done? We're at-

"Nora. I'm going to treat Yankovich to dinner now, so | won't be joining you. We'll talk after dinner."

Lenora hesitated for a moment. "You should treat him, but be careful. Callif anything comes up."

"Don't worry."

After hanging up the phone, Lenora slipped her phone back into her pocket and picked up her camera, directing

it at Zachary and Harrietta, who were a few meters away. "Ca little closer... Yes, just like that! Smile...

Perfect!"

Zachary wasn't fond of taking photos, yet Harrietta insisted on having her photos taken with him.

He walked over and joined Lenora to look at the photos on the screen. Casually, he asked, "Was that Ms. Tortell

on the phone just now?"

"Yeah, she said she won't be joining us," Lenora casually responded as she earnestly looked at the photo.

Her ex-boyfriend was biracial?"

Lenora was taken aback for a moment, raising an eyebrow as she glanced at him. "What makes you say that?"

"His eyes and facial features."

"I don't recall SugarSoph ever mentioning it," Lenora said.

Perhaps Zachary was just speculating, Zephyr's features were strikingly defined, but it wasn't obvious that he

was of mixed heritage at first glance.

Zephyr had done his homework in advance, opting for a barbecue restaurant that boasted local flavors.

The two of them took their seats across from each other, and the waiter approached with the menu. "What would

you like to order? With Valentine's Day just around the corner, our restaurant has recently introduced a couple's

special. It's good value for money. Would you "No."

"Let's go with this one."

Sophia and Zephyr simultaneously responded in unison.

Their eyes met, and Sophia was the first to break the silence. "Let's not, just choose whatever you like. It's not

like I can't afford it."

How generous of you, Ms. Tortell!" Zephyr said sarcastically with a smirk.

He took the menu and began listing down his orders, one after the other.

sophia knew Zephyr had intentionally put in a large order as a form of revenge

Once the waiter had left, she sighed. "Zephyr, you've changed."

Zephyr raised an eyebrow. "Hmm?"

Not only have you becpetty, but your appetite seems to have grown too. Surely, you weren't starved

abroad, were you?"

Zephyr flashed a slight smile, his gentle and refined demeanor accentuated by his gold-

rimmed glace saw you at an Epean restaurant a few days ago with a man. He must have been your blind dare

right? The man was balding and looking to be in his forties or fifties, it must have been tough for you to sit

through that mealTM

Whenever the topic of a blind date cup, Sophia would immediately think of her stepbrother, which stirred

intense agitation.

She retorted, "I bet you don't even have a single prospect for a blind date, do you?"

Just as Zephyr was about to say something, suddenly, the phone on the table lit up, accompanied by a pleasant

ringtone.

Zephyr made a hushing gesture, then answered the phone with his tone softened considerably. "Isla what's up?"

Isla, the nitself suggested it belonged to a woman.

After the speaker on the other end of the phone said something, Zephyr gently reassured, "Don't worry, Ill be

back in a few days. I'll bring you a gift then... All right.. Bye.

He ended the call and placed his phone back on the table. Turning to Sophia with a smile, he asked. "What were

you saying earlier?"

"It's nothing." Sophia raised an eyebrow, curiously asking. "Girlfriend?"

Zephyr chuckled lightly, his gaze focused intently on Sophia. He studied her facial expressions with great

attention, without denying anything.

Sophia let out a sigh. "Ah, | really don't know what she saw in you."
