Sophia was relief.· She had thought it would be awkward to sleep with Victor. Now it saved her some
trouble!
Looking at the wounds wrapped like the traditional Chinese medicine, Sophia felt sour and sad.
The next morning, Sophia got up and went to work as usual. When she went downstairs, Victor was
already having breakfast.
"You have hurt your ankle. Have a good rest today!" Victor pretended to be nonchalant.
"Don't bother. It's nothing serious." Sophia had changed the gauze of last night into a band aid, which
looked plain.
After breakfast, they went to work together. Sophia wanted to get in the car herself, but when she saw
the cold expression on Victor's face, she was afraid that he would get angry again. To avoid
unnecessary argument, she chose to sit on the passenger seat obediently.
When they arrived at the company, she deliberately walked behind him to keep a distance from Victor.
The employees all greeted Victor with a smile. However, it looked kind of odd for them to meet Victor.
They looked at the two with a confused look.
Sophia· got the reason soon. Today's latest newspaper was on her desk. She opened it and found the
headline on the entertainment page: the young president of the YS Group pursued Rita, · the female
star.
Under the title was a enlarged photo. It showed that Victor and Rita were having dinner in a western
restaurant. Rita heard the man's words. She could feel the tenderness in Victor's eyes when he looked
at the woman.
Sophia was hurt to find that the two were a perfect match. But why would she still feel sad?
Sophia crumpled the newspaper into a ball and threw it into the trash can. Then she forced herself not
to think about anything related to Victor.
At 9 o'clock in the morning, an employee came to inform Sophia that someone was looking for her.
Sophia was confused in her heart. When she walked out of the delivery room, she saw the courier
holding a gift box and a large bouquet of flowers. Her colleagues all gave her roguish smiles.
"Hello, are you Sophia? This is the evening dress and flowers Mr. Jeremy sent to you. Please sign for
them. "
Sophia had forgotten the deal she made with Jeremy the other day, but he was so considerate.
She walked forward. The courier handed her a large bouquet of roses after she signed. Sophia was
about to go back with the flowers in her arms and the clothes box.
But Lee from the design department came close and said in an exaggerated way, "this is the latest
dress of the season, and it is said that it is a limited edition! Sophia, please open it! We're dying to see
it! "
Other female colleagues who were always dressed up also came to Sophia and watched eagerly.
It was inappropriate for Sophia not to open it. Otherwise, she would be thought narrow-minded.
She opened the well packed box, in which lay a black lace off the back fishtail dress, which was well
tailored and sexy design.
"Sophia, go and have a try! Then we can have a look. " Lee suggested.
Before Sophia could make a response, her colleagues all shouted, "Oh, Sophia, you can give it a try!
We are not lucky enough to wear such a skirt, but we can satisfy our eyes! "
"That's right! Sophia, you'd better give it a try, or we'll lose face!"
It wouldn't make her look petty if she didn't try it on. So Sophia took the dress to the dressing room of
the company.
The dress fit her very well. It had to be said that Jeremy had a good eye. He had only met her for two
or three times and had already figured out Sophia's sizes.
It was a backless dress, so if Sophia wore it, she would feel a little uncomfortable. The dress was
modest and casual, so she couldn't get used to this sexy dress.
When Sophia got out from the dressing room, the female colleagues were all shocked. The male
colleagues didn't care about this matter at all, but they got stunned when they saw Sophia. Their eyes
were full of amazement.
The black dress outlined the hour glass of Sophia's curvaceous figure. The bare back design of the
dress accentuated her bare skin, creating a visual impact. The fishtail skirt was even more elegant. And
Sophia had a elegant temperament. She was glowing brightly.
Sophia seldom dressed herself up, so she always put on comfortable and natural clothes. But now she
suddenly changed to a new style. Everyone was surprised by it, and they didn't expect that Sophia
would be even more elegant than Rita.
"Sophia, you look so beautiful in this dress!"
"I agree with you. Sophia is in good shape."
A woman always had vanity. Although Sophia was not particularly concerned about appearance, it was
pleasant to hear other people praise her.
"Really? I... " Just as she was about to answer, a deep and cold voice came from behind.
"What are you doing during office hours? !"
All of them looked back and found that Victor was standing at the door of his office and watching them.
Since they were caught red handed during working hours, they were afraid of being punished and
immediately scattered back to their seats.
From the way Victor was cold, Sophia knew he wouldn't be nice to her. Besides, she was in the wrong
when she was trying on the clothes at work.
She packed up her things and was about to go back to her office. The sight of the bunch of red roses
angered Victor. How dared she accept the roses from Jeremy! Then Victor followed Sophia into her
office.
"You have the nerve to say it's beautiful?! The person who chose this dress seems to have no taste! "
The odd expression on Victor's faces brought a shiver down his spine. At the thought that the men
outside all looked Sophia, he wished he could fire them all!
"Mr. Victor! It's my fault to try on clothes at work time, but it's my freedom to choose clothes. Please
don't slander me, okay? !"
"I just want to remind you not to bring shame to the YS Group."
"Humph, thank you for your concern, Mr. Victor. I won't shame the YS Group!" Said Sophia ironically.
She just put on a coat, and he wanted to make fun of her too! Was it so easy to bully her in his eyes?
Sophia was depressed.
Victor felt ashamed of himself. With a livid face, he went back to his office. By imperial edict to
announce his displeasure by breaking the door.
The employees in the YS Group ·started gossiping when they saw the CEO walked out of Sophia's
office, as if nobody was allowed to get close to him.
"In my opinion, the reason why Mr. Victor is angry is that he is competing with Jeremy!"
As soon as this sentence came out, everyone immediately began to deny it.
"What?! How could he not know that Victor and Sophia have an affair?'! Now he is obviously jealous
when he gets angry! "
"But Mr. Victor… He just had a rumor with Miss Rita today. "
"Who knows? The relationship between them is complicated. Maybe our CEO is dating two women at
the same time!"
"Oh my God It can't be... " The crowd began to whisper.
Some said, "Oh, Sophia, she is really something! Jeremy and Mr. Victor have connection with her. How
could we do such a thing? "
Her words sounded sad. Others didn't know how to respond to it, but they were also unhappy with
·Sophia.
When Sophia went to the washroom at noon, she happened to hear two female colleagues chatting.
One of them was Lee who praised her in various ways. Sophia didn't pay much attention to it at the
beginning, but she accidentally heard something about herself.
"Oh, Sophia is so beautiful! I really envy her! "
Lee said to the female colleague, "you don't know yet, do you? Sophia is a capable assistant! Or both
our CEO and Jeremy would be fascinated by her? !"
"I didn't expect that Sophia could be such a cold person in private! Look at her in private!"
"Huh, how can you know a man's appearance, not his heart? Maybe it's because of her superior skill..."
The two women laughed ambiguously and went out of the bathroom.
Sophia didn't come out of the compartment until they left. People knew their faces, but they didn't know
their hearts? It might be more suitable for them!
They complimented her in public, but in the back, they slandered her like that!
Luckily, she was a slow person. She had no experience of working with someone like Lee. Otherwise, it
would be a great loss to have such a friend?!
After her mother passed away, Sophia moved to Jian family and got acquainted with both of them. She
realized that everyone was cold and didn't trust others. When she left Jian family, she didn't expect this
even more worse. Trust had become so luxury to Sophia.
Sophia got a glass of cold water and cooled herself down. She collected herself and went back to her
office.
In the afternoon, Jeremy called Sophia.
"How is it going? Does the dress fit you? " There was a smile in Jeremy's voice, which sounded relax.
"Well, they all fit me. By the way, thank you for your flowers. I like them very much!"
Sophia's natural approach to Jeremy was natural. She didn't think much about it. She just took Jeremy
as a friend who met her late.
"I'm glad that you like it. Well, see you then?"
"Okay, I'll be there on time." Sophia happy promised.
Sophia felt better after hanging up the phone. It was a pleasant experience to talk with a gentleman,
unlike the bossy Victor who always quarreled with her within a few words.
Sophia thought of Victor and wondered whether he would also attend this industry exchange meeting?
Then who would Victor invite to be his female companion? Was it Rita, who had received a lot of
positive comments from her fans, or his fiancee who had never shown up?
Humph, no matter who she was, it had nothing to do with Sophia. Sophia tried to convince herself not
to think about that man, but she still felt bitter in her heart.
If he had no such a contract with her, if he was not the CEO of the YS Group and she was just an
ordinary girl, then their relationship might have a good ending!
Shaking her head, Sophia tried to get rid of those improper thoughts in her mind and calmed
down.
