Chapter 14 Getting Angry
Sophie’s face darkened slightly, her fingers intertwining nervously.
Benson was lost in thought as memories resurfaced. Whenever he drank too much, Sierra would show up with a special hangover remedy and oatmeal porridge.
His chronic stomach issues, which even doctors said were difficult to cure, had improved significantly thanks to Sierra’s care. He couldn’t remember the last time he’d felt stomach pain.
Sierra loved him so much. How could she possibly fall for another man?
As he recalled the scene from last night, Benson picked up his phone. Seeing all the unanswered calls glaring back at him was like pouring fuel on a fire. Sophie’s eyes glimmered as she spoke softly. “Mr. Gray, I saw Sierra arrive at work just now. Maybe I should return the desk to her.”
“Not unless she apologizes to you,” Benson replied coldly before pausing for a moment. “Bring her to my office,” he ordered.
A faint smirk tugged at the corners of Sophie’s lips as she nodded and left the room.
“Sierra, how’s the new desk? Getting used to it?” Sophie crossed her arms as she entered Sierra’s office and shut the door. Her tone was smug and condescending.
Sierra looked up with an indifferent gaze and ignored her.
Unbothered by the silence, Sophie’s gaze fell on Sierra’s injured arm. Her smile widened as she spoke in a low voice.
“Sierra, I’m really sorry. I didn’t mean to press your wound yesterday. That must have hurt.”
Sierra finally stopped sorting her documents, fixing her with a frosty gaze. “You think I can’t see through your petty tricks?”
Sophie didn’t flinch. Instead, she raised her head proudly, her eyes shining with smug arrogance. “Even if you can see through me, what does it change? Mr. Gray doesn’t care.
“You got hurt, and he didn’t even ask how you were. Sierra, you’re smart. Can’t you see that his heart has never been with you?”
