Her Life Starts to Spin out of Control novel Chapter 23

He didn't even have to guess. He instantly knew who that was.

Indeed, it was who he thought! In less than two minutes, Sophia had rushed past the CEO's office again. She was carrying two folders with her, and glared at Colin when she looked through his window into his office

Oops! Sophia didn't expect Colin to be looking at her as well. When their eyes met, she quickly drew her gaze back and hurried away.

Damn, now Colin had seen her staring at him! Would he pick on her again for that?

Whatever! He deserved it! He was the one who didn't wake her when they arrived!

Inside the office, Colin flashed a triumphant smile.

She wanted to start a fight with him? Colin scoffed at the challenge since he knew that Sophia would make for a poor adversary.

In the meeting room, on the 22nd floor, After putting herself together, Sophia opened the door and entered. Inside the room, she saw Dorothy was yelling at Payne.

When she saw Sophia, Dorothy immediately turned to her, "Sophia Lo, are you late on purpose?"

"You bet." Sophia didn't deign to explain herself, but admitted to Dorothy's accusation.

Dorothy was too angry to say another word. After a long while, she managed to speak, "Sophia Lo, you'd better pray that you won't fall into my hands!"

Sophia put the reprinted contract onto the desk, and glared at Dorothy coldly, "Ms. Lien, you are at SL group, not at Lien's. You threats mean nothing here."

With her finger clenched, Dorothy walked to the desk, "So be it. Let's sign the contract, Miss Lo."

"Yes, Sophia, the contract is our top priority." Payne smiled at Sophia.

His ex-girlfriend was two hours late for the meeting, but Payne found himself not even a little bit upset.

After signing the contract, Sophia turned to leave the room. She didn't want to spend a single minute watching Dorothy and Payne together.

Perhaps Dorothy was under too much pressure, Sophia thought. This woman was only recently, mad and yelling at Payne. But now, she was giving him such a soppy, slavish look. Like a lunatic.

"Sophia Lo!" Dorothy called to Sophia just as she had reached the door.

Sophia stopped, but didn't look back.

"Don't you want to know how your mother died?"

She had caught Sophia's attention.

Sophia turned back with a ferocious look, and squeezed out three words "You did it?"

Dorothy took Sophia's reaction as a small victory. She caressed her hair on her shoulder, and looked at Sophia in feigned horror, "Of course not! I'm too kind to murder others!"

Sophia walked up to Dorothy, and held her wrist, "Then who it was?"

Her fingers were clamped so tight around Dorothy's wrist that it left a mark. She tried to shake off Sophia's hold on her wrist but failed. She called for Payne, "Payne Tai! Come and help!"

Payne hurriedly came along. But before he could pull Sophia's hand off, she tugged her hand back, and shouted, "Don't touch me!"

It reminded her of that night when Payne tried to force her. Even looking at him was a rude reminder of her ordeal. He was so repulsive!

Payne saw the disgust in her eyes, and was shamed into anger, "Sophia Lo, stop making a scene here!"

She should be flattered that he had some interest in her!

"Who the hell was it, Dorothy Lien? Fucking tell me!" Jordan Li had promised to find out how her mother had died, but she hadn't been informed yet.

Instead, Dorothy kissed the signed contract, "Kneel and apologize, then I will consider whether or not to tell you."

Sophia's eyes widened in anger. She curled her fingers inwards to form fists.
