Chapter 10 - Chapter 10: "Rivalry and Romance"

Sophia's eyes narrowed as she watched Victoria, her rival event planner, whispering to a potential client. She knew that Victoria was trying to sabotage her career, but she wasn't going to let her get away with it.As Sophia approached the client, Victoria smirked at her. "Sophia, darling, I see you're still trying to play in the big leagues. But let's be real, you're just a small-time event planner. You'll never be able to compete with me."Sophia's blood boiled, but she kept her cool. "Victoria, I'm not afraid of you. And I know that my skills and expertise far surpass yours."The client looked at Sophia with newfound interest, and Victoria's face fell. Sophia knew that she had won this round, but she also knew that Victoria would not give up easily.Meanwhile, Julian was watching the exchange from across the room, his eyes flashing with jealousy. He didn't like seeing Sophia interact with other men, even if it was just business.As Sophia walked away from the client, Julian caught up to her. "Sophia, who was that guy you were talking to?" he demanded.Sophia rolled her eyes. "Just a potential client, Julian. Don't be jealous."But Julian's face darkened. "I'm not jealous. I just don't want you getting too close to other men."Sophia's anger sparked. "Julian, I'm a professional. I know how to handle myself. And besides, you have nothing to worry about. I'm with you, and only you."But Julian's jealousy had already been sparked, and it wasn't going to be easily extinguished. The two of them argued for hours, their passion and love for each other fueling the fire.In the end, they both knew that their love was strong enough to overcome any obstacle. But the rivalry between Sophia and Victoria was far from over, and the romance between Sophia and Julian was about to get even more complicated.
