Drenched in Love novel Chapter 41

Sophia ignored the whispers of others and took the key from Haze. As she reached door, Daniel stopped her, “Miss Carter, Mr. Berry said, you will work in the company from now on.”

Sophia was embarrassed, “Daniel, I know. I'll go get changed and I'll be back in a minute, is that ok?”

At that time, Daniel was standing at the door of the president's office. Although he did not see the situation inside, but heard the sound, plus saw Sophia fled from the president's office in a mess, he could have guessed something. He looked at Sophia's face and stood aside from the door. “Go. Come back soon .Otherwise I won't be able to explain to Mr. Berry.”

Sophia said thanks and hurried away.

After Daniel left, the public relations office got noisy with all kinds of words.

Hazel planned to ask Sophia after work about this. As they walked out of the door, Daniel showed up again, “Miss Carter, Mr. Berry asked me to tell you don't forget your promise to him. And...”

Daniel handed Sophia a card, “Here is the address.” He looked at Hazel with a warning in his eyes. “Mr. Berry doesn't want this matter to be known to people who don't matter.”

Sophia nodded, “I know.”

“Sophia, what's going on here? What promise did you make to Mr. Berry?” After Daniel left, Hazel asked holding Sophia’s arms.

Sophia was embarrassed. She held Hazel's hand, “Hazel, thank you for taking care of me these days, if you need help, I will certainly try my best to help you.”

“Hazel, I can't go to your house from today. I already have a place to live. Don't worry about me.”

Sophia explained and stopped Hazel from asking.

Hazel knew there was no answer, so she could only stare at her, “Sophia, if you need help, let me know!”

Sophia nodded.

Stephen did not kindly wait for Sophia to leave. Sophia knew it and she walked over according to the address..

The villa was far away. It was already 10 o’clock in the evening when Sophia got there.

Standing in front of the tall carved iron door, Sophia wiped the sweat on her forehead and rang the doorbell at the door.

She rang it again, but no one answered. She continued. After a long pause, Stephen's cold voice came over the wireless, “It closes at 9 o’clock every night. If you can't come back before that, stay outside!”

That was the end of the call. Sophia had no chance to rebuttal.

Looking at the surrounding environment, Sophia found a clean stone to sit down, held her arms and intended to stay there all night. She could have left and gone to the nearest KFC. But she knew that Stephen maybe would check if she was there in the middle of the night. If she was not there, she would be screwed.

The scenery in the villa was nice with many trees and flowers, but there were many mosquitoes. Sophia, leaning on the stone wall, fell asleep, and was awake up by mosquitoes.

Touching his arm, neck and face where got bit by mosquitoes, Sophia frowned. When it came to dawn, Sophia walked toward the Berry Group.

She could not be late to the villa and sure she could not be late to work.

At the work time, Hazel got into the office. See Sophia got bit by mosquitoes, she could not help but ask with concern, other colleagues talked about it too. Sophia gave a simple explanation to Hazel.

In order to return to the villa early and no longer stayed outside for the night, Sophia did not even eat dinner after work but walked back to the villa. Finally at eight o’clock she reached the villa.

Stephen was already sitting on the sofa in the living room. As she just entered the door, Stephen said, “Cook.”
