The smell of blood filled his lips and teeth, and Stephen finally let go of Sophia.
Sophia leaned against the railing weakly, looking at Stephen and breathing heavily.
Stephen lowered his eyebrows, making it difficult to see the look in his eyes. He raised his hand and rubbed Sophia's blood-stained red lips with his cool fingertips. He said in a low voice with a dangerous but seductive temptation: "If you really want to thank me, thank me like this in the future. Only in this way could you show your sincerity."
Sophia held her breath and didn't speak, she felt that Stephen was weird tonight.
Stephen rubbed Sophia's lips with his cool fingertips repeatedly, making Sophia tremble. She grasped the railing behind her firmly, hoping to escape.
Stephen kissed her again. This time it was gentle and intricate, with fatal temptation.
Sophia was lost gradually.
After the gentle kiss, he began to make use of his hands. He moved his hands into her skirt to rub her thin waist, and then slowly moved upwards. He finally pushed away her bra and touched her breast.
Sophia's body shuddered sharply and she came to herself. She raised her hands to push Stephen away. Stephen let go of her and stretched his hands to her leg, intending to carry her upstairs.
At this moment, a soft cough sounded from the door. Sophia pushed Stephen away immediately and looked at the door.
At the door stood a man and a woman, almost fifty years old. The man was elegant and chic, and the woman was noble and elegant.
Sophia knew the woman who was Stephen's mother, Grace.
Seeing Grace, Sophia's face flushed as if it was on fire. The last time, Grace happened to see Stephen and her lying on the same bed, and she was embarrassed enough to wear Stephen's shirt, and now...
Sophia felt completely ashamed to see anyone.
Stephen was not embarrassed at all. He frowned and looked at the man and woman at the door: "Why are you here?"
The man was very dissatisfied with his tone, and went straight to the living room to sit down: "You haven’t gone go home for five years, shouldn’t your mother and I come to see you?"
Hannah came with tea.
Stephen accompanied Grace and the man on the sofa in the living room. Sophia wanted to sneak away, however Grace smiled and pulled her to sit on her side.
Sophia glanced at Stephen, and dared not to sit down.
Grace smiled and dragged her to sit down: "Don't be afraid, we are nice people."
Sophia sat next to Grace awkwardly, listening to Stephen and the man talking indifferently.
"What's your name? Where are you from?"
Grace asked by holding Sophia's hands.
Sophia retracted her hands awkwardly, and answered Grace's questions one by one.
In the evening, Grace and the man stayed here for dinner. Sophia and Hannah brought the dishes to the table and Grace hold Sophia’s hands to sit down next to Stephen: "After a busy night, you should also sit down and have dinner with us. Treat us as your family, and make yourself at home."
While watching Hazel typing, Sophia leaned forward and asked in a low voice, "Hazel, what happened?"
Hazel didn't speak, and took a quick sip of water. She pointed to the computer screen and continued with her work.
Sophia followed her finger and looked at the computer screen. She was totally shocked by the photo on the screen.
On the computer screen was a picture of a man and a woman. The man put his arm around the woman's waist and they looked very intimate. Although the photo was taken from the back, and only showed the profiles of the man and the woman. However, those who had seen them could still recognize them at a glance. The people in the photo were her and Stephen. And the photo recorded the scene that happened after work yesterday.
Sophia sat in her seat dazedly, watching the entire public relations department working busily for her.
When the news was completely intercepted, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon. Everyone hadn't eaten yet, and when they finished, they began to gather in twos and threes to go out for launch.
When they came back with all work finished, everyone couldn't bear the enthusiasm for the gossips in the office. Even though Jennifer was still in the office, many began to glimpse Sophia. Even Hazel couldn't help but look at Sophia for several times.
Sophia bit her lip, accepting everyone's attention silently.
After work, Sophia was the first to rush out of the office. She rushed to the parking lot as quickly as she could, and drove away in the small broken car given to her by Stephen. She even ignored Hazel's calling.
Externally, the news about her and Stephen was suppressed. No one knew that Stephen helped her last night and took her waist to protect her from the crowd. But everyone in the public relations department knew about this, and the other departments had also heard something about this.
When she left the company, she could clearly feel everyone's eyes falling on her. When she rushed out of the Berry Group lobby, she even heard someone say: "Sophia? How could she be capable of winning the heart of Mr. Berry, the president of the Berry Group?"
"I don't know what she is capable of. I just need to be polite to her in the future when I see her. Maybe I’ll need her help in the future."
