Being Pursued By Ex-husband
Chapter 382

Chapter 382

Sophia did not actually intend to make things difficult for Cassandra, even though the woman was quiteannoying that night. After all, Sophia did not take the matter to heart.

The main reason she did not sign the contract with them was her lack of trust in their company.

Of course, a part of her also desired to retaliate against Cassandra.

However, if their company's prospects were promising and their plans were reasonable, Sophia wouldnot let the opportunity to make money slip away because of a minor grudge.

The crux of the issue was that Cassandra's company was not doing well.

However, Sophia could not control Cassandra's and Viktor's thoughts.

“Ms. Yarrow, Ms. Holloway is...”

Even though Yvonne did not know what happened that night, having followed Sophia for many years,she had guessed from the first sentence that Cassandra had offended her during the negotiation beforethat.

When she heard Yvonne's words, Sophia raised her eyebrows slightly. “It's nothing. When we dined outa few days ago, she asked me to let her have the private room.” After a short pause, she continued,“She said that her uncle is an executive at Technology Innovations. I decided to show him somerequest, so I gave her the room.”

After speaking, Sophia smiled.

Yvonne immediately understood what had happened. She knew that Sophia rarely targeted a person.When she spoke strangely to Cassandra earlier, it was clear that the latter had offended the former.

It did not occur to her that Cassandra would be so foolish.

How dare a future executive at Technology Innovations act arrogantly in front of Sophia? As thecompany's major shareholder, wouldn't Sophia be able to crush her?

Cassandra was not only foolish but also unlucky. Their company's investments had ties to Sophia. Noone could claim to have worse luck than her.

Cassandra also felt that she was unlucky. She had not expected a woman she casually met that daywould be someone she should never have offended.

The previous day, Viktor had already warned her that she would need to resign from the company ifshe failed to get the investment from Sunshine Group.

Cassandra did not want to leave the company. Even though she was just a low-ranked manager, therewere many people who flattered her.

In addition, Viktor was acquainted with Bob's friend. Everything was going according to her wishes atthe company.

Cassandra wondered how exactly she should apologize to make Sophia forgive her. Even though shehad been thinking about it all night, she could not come up with a solution.

Just yesterday, Viktor had said that if she could not seek Sophia's forgiveness, she should pack up andleave the company. Early this morning, when Cassandra returned to her small office, she found that thelock on her door had been changed.

Just yesterday, Viktor had said that if she could not seek Sophia's forgiveness, she should pack up andleave the company. Early this morning, when Cassandra returned to her small office, she found that thelock on her door had been changed.

When she asked her passing colleagues, a junior employee looked at her awkwardly and said, “Ms.Holloway, Mr. Weylandt said that you should not come to the company for a while.”

No one knew exactly what had happened. All the company's employees only knew that after Viktorreturned yesterday, he suddenly became furious and smashed things in the office. He angrily orderedhis secretary to change the lock on Cassandra's office and told the company's staff to treat the womanlike an invisible person for the next three days.

Of course, the junior employee knew that Cassandra was not someone who was magnanimous. So, hedid not dare to repeat Viktor's exact words but only gave a general idea of what happened.

After hearing the junior employee's words, Cassandra's face turned pale.

She had almost been able to call the shots in the company for the past two years, but now she wasbeing chased out of the door. Cassandra could not bear the defeat.

The woman stiffened her face and walked away dejectedly.

Sophia was not busy today. After handling two documents, she planned to head to SpecterEntertainment.

As soon as Sophia walked out of the office door, Yvonne walked toward her and said, “Ms. Yarrow...”

Yvonne stood a short distance away and looked at Sophia, who had a slight frown. It seemed that thewoman was somewhat displeased. “Ms. Cassandra Yarrow came to look for you.”

“Oh?” Sophia raised a brow before continuing, “Well, she's here just in time. Let her in.” She smiled,visibly in a good mood. She was also interested to see how Cassandra would make the apology.

When Yvonne glanced at Sophia, she saw the flicker of delight in the woman's eyes. She was stunnedmomentarily but then quickly reacted and nodded. “All right, Ms. Yarrow.”

Soon, Yvonne brought Cassandra into Sophia's office. “Ms. Holloway is here, Ms. Yarrow.”

Sophia hung up the phone, turned around, and looked at Cassandra. Her gaze swept over the item inher hand, and she smiled slightly. “Ms. Leighton, please pour Ms. Holloway some coffee.”

Yvonne acknowledged her instructions before leaving the room.

There were only Cassandra and Sophia left in the office. The latter walked to the couch and sat on oneside, then raised her hand and pointed to the opposite couch. “Please take a seat, Ms. Holloway.”

Throughout the whole process, Sophio wos olwoys smiling.

In controst, Cossondro wos inexplicobly nervous. She could not even give the gift she wos holding toSophio.

When Sophio looked ot her, Cossondro instinctively ploced the gift behind her. “Thonk you, Ms.Yorrow.”

She wolked over reluctontly ond sot down on the couch opposite Sophio. “Ms. Hollowoy, I come heretodoy to sincerely opologize to you.”

Sophio looked ot her ond osked, “Why is there o need for on opology? Did you do onything wrong, Ms.Hollowoy?”

Heoring this, Cossondro's foce stiffened. “Ms. Yorrow, I know I wos wrong thot night. I wos blind onddidn't recognize you. I soid some offensive things. Pleose be mognonimous ond forgive me.”

“Ms. Hollowoy, you ore moking me confused. Whot you soid thot night wos true. I wos indeed ignoront.It wosn't o big deol for me to let you hove the privote room when you ond your fomily were hoving obirthdoy celebrotion.”

As soon os Sophio finished speoking, Cossondro's foce turned pole. “Ms. Yorrow, I...”

Before she could continue, Yvonne, stonding outside the door, colled out, “Ms. Yorrow.”

“Come in,” the womon instructed.

Cossondro could only purse her lips ond stop tolking, looking on os Yvonne brought in the coffee ond

ploced it in front of her.

From the moment Cossondro come in until now, Sophio hod been cordiol. However, the more friendlyshe wos, the more uneosy Cossondro felt.

It wos only the two of them in the office ofter Yvonne left.

“Hove o drink, Ms. Hollowoy,” Sophio urged.

She leoned over ond offered Cossondro the cup Yvonne hod just brought in.

However, before Cossondro could even touch the edge of the cup, Sophio directly sploshed the hotcoffee onto her hond.

The coffee wos not very hot, but there wos o slight wormth when it londed on her hond.

“Ms. Yorrow...” soid Cossondro with o trembling voice, looking troubled.

Sophio smiled slightly os she gozed ot her. “You see, there ore some things I'm willing to give you if I sodesire. Yet, if I don't wont to offer them to you, you should not even think you're worthy of them.”

At this point, Sophio poused for o moment before continuing, “Ms. Hollowoy, it's better to be humble.You don't hove to opologize. Just toke your things ond leove my office. If you don't leove now, I think Istill hove the obility to moke it difficult for you to survive in Jodeborough.”

Throughout the whole process, Sophia was always smiling.

In contrast, Cassandra was inexplicably nervous. She could not even give the gift she was holding toSophia.

When Sophia looked at her, Cassandra instinctively placed the gift behind her. “Thank you, Ms.Yarrow.”

She walked over reluctantly and sat down on the couch opposite Sophia. “Ms. Holloway, I came heretoday to sincerely apologize to you.”

Sophia looked at her and asked, “Why is there a need for an apology? Did you do anything wrong, Ms.Holloway?”

Hearing this, Cassandra's face stiffened. “Ms. Yarrow, I know I was wrong that night. I was blind anddidn't recognize you. I said some offensive things. Please be magnanimous and forgive me.”

“Ms. Holloway, you are making me confused. What you said that night was true. I was indeed ignorant.It wasn't a big deal for me to let you have the private room when you and your family were having abirthday celebration.”

As soon as Sophia finished speaking, Cassandra's face turned pale. “Ms. Yarrow, I...”

Before she could continue, Yvonne, standing outside the door, called out, “Ms. Yarrow.”

“Come in,” the woman instructed.

Cassandra could only purse her lips and stop talking, looking on as Yvonne brought in the coffee and

placed it in front of her.

From the moment Cassandra came in until now, Sophia had been cordial. However, the more friendlyshe was, the more uneasy Cassandra felt.

It was only the two of them in the office after Yvonne left.

“Have a drink, Ms. Holloway,” Sophia urged.

She leaned over and offered Cassandra the cup Yvonne had just brought in.

However, before Cassandra could even touch the edge of the cup, Sophia directly splashed the hotcoffee onto her hand.

The coffee was not very hot, but there was a slight warmth when it landed on her hand.

“Ms. Yarrow...” said Cassandra with a trembling voice, looking troubled.

Sophia smiled slightly as she gazed at her. “You see, there are some things I'm willing to give you if I sodesire. Yet, if I don't want to offer them to you, you should not even think you're worthy of them.”

At this point, Sophia paused for a moment before continuing, “Ms. Holloway, it's better to be humble.You don't have to apologize. Just take your things and leave my office. If you don't leave now, I think Istill have the ability to make it difficult for you to survive in Jadeborough.”
