Sophie's heart had been ensnared by Gabriel, a mysterious stranger she'd conversed with for three years never glimpsing his face or knowing his true identity. When Gabriel abruptly vanished, Sophie's world crumbled. It's precisely at this juncture that James enters her life. Intrigued by Sophie's unwavering devotion to an enigmatic figure, James delves deeper. He discovers that Sophie, a confident 23-year-old, is also the daughter of a billionaire. Driven by curiosity and perhaps something more, James resolves to help Sophie find Gabriel. Along the way, an unspoken love blossoms between them. Simultaneously, two significant events unfold. First, Sophie's beloved mentor, whom she considered an admirer, is brutally murdered. Second, a reclusive tech giant known for residing in a digital fortress, communicating only through screens and masks gains fame in Los Angeles City due to his benevolent deeds. Sophie senses an inexplicable link between her professor's death and the tech geej. Amidst the chaos, Sophie grapples with her own and James involvement in this intricate web. Will Sophie decipher her connection to the 'Tech Geek' ? Can she unravel her mentor's murder mystery? And most importantly, will she find solace in James's presence, leaving behind the ghost of Gabriel?

Chapter 69

Mr. Johnson had arrived at the event and made his way through the guest list. He was keeping a close eye on everyone and everything, his mind preoccupied with the bracelet he had noticed in the CCTV footage.

Curious, he asked Henry why he hadn't introduced his family members yet.

Henry seemed hesitant at first but eventually gave in with a warm smile.

"Hey Johnson, this is my daughter Sophie," Henry said, gesturing towards a young woman who had just arrived at their table.

Johnson's eyes widened as he took in the sight of Sophie, her delicate features and innocent smile.

"Nice to meet you, Sophie," Johnson said with a smile, trying to hide his shock and suspicion.

"Likewise," Sophie replied politely.

But Johnson couldn't help but stare at her bracelet, the same Flora Bracelet he had seen in the footage.
