Chapter 216 Confrontation

Sophia almost made Victor speechless. He kept silent for a few seconds and said, "I don't know."

Sophia didn't make any comments. She suddenly had an impulse to cry, but her tears seemed to have been dried up. She only felt a colic in her heart, but she couldn't show anything. What a scheming woman Teresa was! At last, she slept with her favorite man! Sophia's thought made herself sneer.

'What does' I don't know 'mean? A night without consciousness can do a lot of things. Men always used "no impression" and "I don't know" to excuse themselves, but she still didn't know the truth.' Sophia thought.

After a long silence, Sophia finally said, "Victor, I don't know if I should believe you. Just leave me alone, okay?"

There was a look of helplessness on Victor's face. He knew it would be hard for her to accept this according to her character. But it had happened, so he wanted to try his best to make it up for her. After all, Sophia was the only woman that Victor loved and wanted to spend the rest of his life with.

"Then I will go to the study room to deal with the company's affairs." He rose from his seat in an attempt to leave the room. After a pause, he turned around and enjoined, "Have a good rest tonight. I'll ask Zelda to prepare you some tonic food tomorrow morning."

Sophia replied, "Yes..." She turned over with her back to where Victor was. Sophia's heart could only be described by a messy hair line.

It was not until she felt that there was no sound in the bedroom that she turned back. She lay on the bed and looked at the ceiling with empty eyes. But her mind constantly flashed back all the things that she had known Victor since they met. This man looked cold and domineering on the surface, but he had a hot heart that seemed to be touched by only Sophia. Victor once said that he only had one person in his heart, and that person was Sophia...

In the dead of night, Victor crept into the bedroom. Then she had already lay on her side on the bed. Victor felt relieved when he heard her steady breathing. He deliberately kept his movements light, sitting by the bed and staring at Sophia's face. The bright moonlight shone on her face through the window, making her more attractive. Victor couldn't help reaching out and touching her delicate face. But when his hand was about to touch Sophia, he had to stop in the air because he was afraid that he might irritate her. Finally, it was over with a sigh of Victor.

Lying beside Sophia, Victor kept a two inch distance from her. Usually, he slept with Sophia and hugged her in his arms every night. And Victor felt sorry for her. Nobody knew how much he wanted to grasp Sophia now, but he was afraid that she would get annoyed because of his small action. He thought for a long time and had to give up.

And Sophia slowly opened her eyes in the night. How could she still have the mood to sleep?

Hearing this, James' eyes dimmed for a second and sighed, "I am not afraid that you would laugh at me. My son fled abroad to avoid me. I have to deal with the rest."

Victor smiled helpless. He was the same with Jeremy, they both came from a powerful family, and he could understand Jeremy, so he said, "Each family has its own problems Let's talk about the cooperation case." With that, they walked into the meeting room and projected their work on the screen which was the planning team made overnight.

"There is a promotion plan for the new product, and... We will make a pre estimate of it. If you accept the budget given by us, I can let them make an assessment tonight for you." While watching the slideshow with James, Victor explained.

The general manager of the company should be responsible for these things. But since the president personally received and explained the cooperation to James today, it could be clear that Victor attached great importance to this cooperation. Meanwhile, James was listening attentively to Victor's presentation and offering his own opinions from time to time.

"But, Victor, is this place a little different from the idea we've discussed before?" James asked, while pointing to the places on the screen that he thought differently from his.

"How about this? I'll ask my secretary to come in with some papers. Then you can read it while I explain it for you," Victor offered. After that, Victor called up the company's internal telephone, "Take the document on my desk to the meeting room."

It took Sophia less than a few minutes to walk into the meeting room with a document in her hand.

Victor winked at Sophia. After Sophia instruction, she said, "Hello, Mr. James, I'm Mr. Victor's secretary. I'll explain this document to you..."

Hearing this, James looked towards Sophia. And in this moment, he was shocked: Why this woman looked so like her deceased wife...
