Devil CEO's Contract Lover novel Chapter 7

Damon POV

I finished my work and went home at 5pm. While passing the garden, I saw the back of a woman in a yellow dress.

Sofia was in the garden in a goose yellow dress talking to the cat, happily playing with it. Sofia was as beautiful as a princess in the sunlight.

As if sensing the change in atmosphere, she looked up. After seeing me, her smile disappeared, then she picked up the cat on the ground and tried to run away.

Why did she hide when she saw me? Was I the devil?

I felt some anger for Sofia's such behavior, and I became even angrier when I thought that I even covered her with a blanket last night.

Although I misunderstood her before, isn't she also targeting me?

"Sofia, where are you going?" I said as I followed her.

I stride up to her, I'm six feet tall and stand in front of Sofia looking even more petite.

"Am I the devil? Why do you run faster than a rabbit when you see me?" I asked her, but she answered me with her head held high, "I'm just a woman. I think for Mr. Rubinstein it doesn't matter to you whether I leave or not."

Her cold words irritated me even more, and if it weren't for the fact that my arm was still healing, I probably would have overpowered her.

"You're getting good at sophistry now Sofia, it won't do you any good to look like that in front of me!" I said unpleasantly.

"Can you do anything else but threaten women? If the paparazzi knew you treated a woman with such a lack of belly, I wonder what they would say about you." She said as she stroked the cat's fur.

The expression on her face was tinged with sulking, causing her cheeks to flush slightly. sofia and the cat in her arms looked really similar, outwardly docile but bursting out in a way that would take people by surprise. Is it because children from single-parent families are more independent than those from ordinary families?

Sofia POV

"I'm in a good mood today, so I'll let your disrespect for me go."

Damon was uncharacteristically not insulting me today, but I didn't snicker at his little kindness to me either.

I was just a little curious.

I followed Damon down the hall. I was going to go to the lobby, but when I heard Damon was going I didn't want to go, but then I thought that if I didn't Damon would think I was afraid of him!

Don't run away, Sofia.

I said to myself.

Let's just go with the flow.

Damon went to the fridge and grabbed a drink, opened it and asked Linda next to him, "Did anything happen today?"

"Nothing happened, just a phone call between Ms. Sofia and Ms. Tiffany."

One sentence immediately ignited Damon's reasoning.

"What did you say to Tiffany? Say it!"

I was ready to sit on the couch for a while and then go to sleep, but who knew that in the blink of an eye Damon would look at me with a horrified expression and reprimand me.

"We didn't say anything."

I felt a little weak thinking about the bad things I had said about Damon on the phone. To me, Damon was still a stranger. I wasn't a servant in his house, so why did I have to report everything to him? And Tiffany was his girlfriend, he could have called and asked her!

"No! Sofia! You're really not fit to lie. Your expression and eyes look evasive, you must have said something to her that you shouldn't!" Before I could react, Damon had already walked up to me.

He reached out and cupped my chin with such force that I felt a little pain, "What are you doing?Damon, let go of me!"

"Sir ......" Linda, who was standing by, tried to explain things clearly.

"Shut the fuck up!" Damon yelled, "I'll let you go if you explain things clearly!"

"You want to know what we said, you can call her and ask her!"

The close range threat reverted last night's calm, handsome face to that of a demon. Although it was the same person, the Damon of the day and the Damon of the night gave off such different feelings.

Damon's expression of menace and the way he forced me made my heart turn cold and sad. If dad didn't owe money for gambling, I wouldn't be so aggravated to be bullied by him all the time!

"I just want you to say it yourself. tiffany is a subtle person, even if she was bullied she wouldn't talk to me!" Damon's deep eyes looked at me compulsively.

Is he out of his mind?

"So you're so heartbroken about your girlfriend, yes, I told her I was pregnant because you were unmarried, and I told her I was sleeping with you last night! Are you satisfied with what I said?"
