Chapter 388 She brought that topic up.
This woman had not changed much. She still had that enigmatic beauty, which added to her peculiar mature aura. She looked like a mature woman, and her voluptuous body made it more evident, but the reality is that she was barely in her 30s, and the prime of her life was shining in her.
Many people claim that her Clairvoyance ability gives her a touch of elegance, and now that Matt sees her, he can agree with all of them. Those people say so perhaps because they want to give her an aura of enigma, but Matt is because he can see it at this moment.
Previously, he couldn't see it, but right now, he could feel the Fragments she had inside her. Among those, the brightest or 'visible' Fragment to him was the first Fragment, that of Clairvoyance.
Being a fragment that investigates something as mystical as Fate, the mystical and enigmatic aura it gave off was the one that surrounded Sophia, which is why many people feared her when they confronted her.

Because her aura of enigmas could give you the feeling that she could see right through you, her steady and certain gaze seemed to have been trained precisely to reveal those kinds of feelings. Her posture, her movements, and her detachment of power enhanced that feeling and made her look so beautiful that it was amazing to watch.
It was opposite Alice's aura, but it seemed to be a more passionate aura, much like Charlotte's.
Isla gave a respectful nod towards her, and Sophia nodded to them but focused her gaze on Matt.
"Matthew Dietrich. Certainly, an amazing man. When my father told me, I didn't believe it. But it seems Gray Allen didn't misjudge you as to place so much importance on you." She said, smiling softly.
Matt looked back at her; although he was confused, he smiled a little. "The fact that you sent me the invitation, I knew it was because someone had told you something. As I expected, the man who was in that place was your father." He replied, and Sophia nodded.
She looked at Isla and smiled at her. "I never thought you could become so powerful in such a short time. I guess giving you to this boy was a good decision." She spoke. Although Isla looked embarrassed, she nodded.
"Thank you, Miss. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be here." She was grateful to Sophia.
Sophia smiled. "Well, leave me alone with Matthew. I'd like to talk to him for a moment." After saying this, Sophia walked past Matt, motioning for him to follow her into the room.
Isla had nothing to say and watched them enter and close the room. She then stood outside, guarding it.
She was surprised by several things, though.
'Miss seems to have a lot of interest in Matt... This is already the third time she wants to talk to him alone. Is there really some history between them?' Although Isla didn't know, she wouldn't find it strange if there was.
She has seen firsthand how special Matt is, and he recently confessed to her to belong to a Clan so legendary that if it were in this era, the 7 Clans would not exist. So in Isla's view, Matt's status is thousands of times higher than the status of any of the Vampire Clans.
But, that only leaves the Vampire Clans to be close to him around status, so it is normal if he has any relationship with the Heirs of those clans.
'I wonder if my Miss likes Matt. I guess it's normal; even Miss Alice seems to have fallen for his charms.' Isla smiled slightly. After remembering what wonderful charms Matt had, naturally, she knew that no one could ignore them.
She didn't feel jealous of Alice and Sophia, perhaps because she didn't feel superior to them or because she felt each of them could serve a different function in Matt's life.
But it's not the same when it comes to other women.
Soon, she was lost in her own thoughts.
.
Inside the room, Sophia was initially silent.
She seemed to have a lot to say, but she didn't seem to have any. Still, after three minutes of silence, Sophia smiled and looked at Matt, who was standing next to her, looking at the same spot in the auditorium as she was.
"That's three minutes I've been silent. Doesn't it bother you that I'm wasting your time like this?" she asked, and Matt looked at her.
"No, I haven't been wasting time. My mind is always working on something. And my eyes are looking at one of the most desirable women in this world; why would I call that wasting time?"
Sophia didn't expect an answer like that, so she didn't know how to respond. His answer stunned her and heightened her interest in him. Still, after a soft sound emitted from her, she looked straight ahead.
"Do you remember my words from that time? You may grow amazingly, but we, the Heirs, will always be one step ahead of you." She said suddenly, opening up a topic of conversation.
Matt was curious as to why she decided to open this up, so he looked at her.
"Ohh... I didn't expect you to have the guts to open that topic of conversation now that you know that statement of yours didn't live up to the talent." He replied sincerely.
Though she felt a bit embarrassed by this, she returned his steady gaze. "Hehe, I guess remembering embarrassing moments isn't bad from time to time. I never thought you were capable enough to shut my mouth in such a short time. Not only did you do it, but in a way that even left my father surprised." She smiled a little after saying this and lifted her head a little.
"This is the first time someone shut me up like that."
Matt frowned when he heard this. 'Despite the fact that she says it's embarrassing, and I can see it on her face, why does she keep harping on about it? I thought she was here to admit she was wrong that time, but apparently, she wants to keep at it.' Still, he averted his gaze from her and looked back at the auditorium.
"Well, I always knew you couldn't keep your words. Still, I don't like to remind people of embarrassing moments, so you still remember it is enough. It's no big deal to me." He replied and gave her a sidelong glance.
A strange light shone in Sophia's eyes at that moment, and she sighed, turning her attention away from Matt and looking straight ahead.
Matt frowned at the sight. 'Disappointment? Is she disappointed in my response?' He couldn't understand that reaction.
This woman was a little stranger and more enigmatic than he remembered. She even had reactions that didn't go with her, which was strange.
