Drenched in Love novel Chapter 25

When it got dark, Sophia finally finished wiping the three hundred square meters of the banquet hall.

She really could not hold it on, borrowed money from Hazel and took a taxi to the company to take painkillers, and then went back to ZD Villa to soak herself in the bathtub.

When the hot water wrapped her cold body, Sophia took a sigh of relief.

Because it was comfortable, Sophia could not help but fell asleep.

When Sophia woke up, the water in the bathtub was cold. She was woken up by a violent knock on the door.

Sophia frowned, took the bath towel to wipe her body. Seeing the water got red by her period blood, she frowned, put on clothes and opened the door.

Standing at the door was Daniel.

“Miss Carter, the people from the public relations department are going to have dinner with the people from the Johnson Group tonight. Mr. Berry asked me to take you there.”

Sophia tightly pressed her lips without a word.

Daniel continued, “Miss Carter, Mr. Berry said that if you want to know where your family is, you'd better not give it a second thought.”

Sophia’s facial expression changed, “Wait a minute, I go get changed.”

Sophia could inquire from others about her family, but she knew if Stephen got in the way, she would not get anything.

ST was Stephen's world.

It was the same banquet hall that was cleaned during the day.

Sophia followed Daniel over, the banquet hall had been full of people.

Hazel took the lead to come over and talk to Sophia. She asked with concern, “Sophia, are you better?”

Sophia nodded, “Much better. Thank you, Hazel.”

Hazel smiled, “You are welcome. We're good friends. Don't be so polite.”

Sophia held Hazel’s hand. She knew Hazel really took her as a good friend.

“You have not yet had dinner tonight, I suppose? There's a buffet over there. Let's go and have some food together!” Hazel took Sophia's hand to the east.

As two people picked up the plate, Daniel came over, “Miss Carter, Mr. Berry is looking for you.”

Sophia felt annoyed. Hazel held Sophia's arm worriedly.

Sophia smiled: In ST, whether she or Hazel, could not go against Stephen's words.

She raised her hand to hold Hazel's hand and gave her a placatory smile, “It will be ok. You eat first, and I'll be with you in a moment.”

Stephen called Sophia to drink for him. There were many people proposed toast to Stephen, Stephen could not drink anymore and did not want to drink anymore, so he asked Sophia to do that for him.

Looking at Sophia drink one by one, someone teased, “Mr. Berry, who is this beauty? She can drink a lot!”

Stephen glanced at Sophia, “My employee from the public relations department. You have a talk. I'll go over there and have a look.”

Stephen left Sophia there.

Fortunately, this was a public place, and the man was not a sleazy person. Sophia was asked to drink much wine and did not get hurt.

After the dinner, Stephen together with people of the public relations department saw the people from the Johnson Group off.

“You all go back.” Stephen ordered.
