Illusion of Superiority
"Claire, did that media group hurt you? That reporter is quite aggressive and was clearly desperate for views. Maybe she thinks we can easily be bullied by her," Sofia furrowed her brows slightly and examined Claire's left and right arm. The two of them sat on the same bench while their other three companions stood on the side.
For a while, Claire remained silent and looked absentminded. Sofia waved her hand right in Claire's face and asked again, "Are you hurt, Claire?"
"N-no, they just surrounded me. Ahh... I did not expect them to come and ask questions," Claire whispered. She glance behind to see Clark who was playing with her hair. Then, she snatched his wrist and held it firmly. Clark only chuckled. He adjusted her fingers and easily interlocked their hands. He remained silent while gazing at Claire.
"Okay. I'm relieved. What happened was not your fault, Claire," Sofia stated and gently tapped her shoulder to comfort her.
