Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 1140

Only did Grayson look at Sonia when he heard her words. Then, he looked at the teacup in front of him, but he then frowned as he looked at the tea inside it. "What variety of tea is this?" he asked.

"Don't worry, Mr. Lore. I won't serve you any premium tea. This is just a normal cup of green tea." Sonia crossed her legs and smiled.

When Grayson heard her words, he had a grim expression. "A normal cup of green tea? Is this how Paradigm Co. treats their guests?"

While listening to his words, Sonia sipped her tea and said faintly, "I can't do anything about this. My company is small, and I can't even change the furniture that I have been using for twenty years. What makes you think I can serve you premium tea? A normal cup of tea is all I can do for you, so bear with it. After all, I still see you as a guest. Otherwise, I would've simply handed you a cup of water." As she spoke, she emphasized the twenty years of furnishing.

Although Grayson didn't have any outstanding abilities in business, he was not a fool. When he heard her words, he knew that the receptionist had told her about what he said in the elevator. Thus, Sonia was using this as a chance to treat him offhandedly by serving him an average cup of tea. With that thought in mind, he was fuming in anger.

"Do you even serve just water?" Grayson squinted his eyes at her. "Aren't you Toby's girlfriend? Considering the years that you have been with him, I don't believe that you haven't taken anything from him. Does he dislike you? Is that why he isn't even willing to buy you premium tea brands? That's probably why your company only has this kind of cheap stuff."

Sonia didn't get mad and was still grinning when she heard his remarks. "You must have underestimated me, Mr. Lore. Toby did give me a lot of good stuff, including premium tea. However, I don't want to serve it to you. I only serve good tea to people who are polite and respectful, not some arrogant man like you. People like you should only be accommodated with regular tea. It's even ridiculous that you said Toby dislikes me. If so, he wouldn't have disassociated himself from the Lore Family. Don't you think so?"

"You…" Grayson was furious at her words that he couldn't even make out a sentence.

According to her words, she's implying that my family isn't worth drinking premium tea and can only be served cheap, regular tea. Not only that, she's also boasting about the fact that Toby chose her over my family. This is just… just… As Grayson thought about it, he was breathing heavily from frustration. At that moment, he couldn't think of anything to criticize Sonia.

Seeing that he was furious to this point, Sonia furrowed her eyebrows as she was afraid he wouldn't be able to handle his emotions. She restrained herself and put down the cup, asking coldly, "Alright, Mr. Lore. I was only joking, so please excuse me for it. After all, you do know that we youngsters like to joke about everything. I'm sure you don't mind it, do you?" She smiled at him.

When he heard her words, Grayson was even more furious. There was nothing else he could say since she had put it that way. He couldn't possibly say that he didn't think it was a joke, for it would make him seem like a killjoy. However, he couldn't let himself agree with her words either as he would need to endure it. Moreover, he knew that she was not joking. She was clearly provoking him and being boastful about it!

When Sonia saw Grayson shaking from anger, she sighed inwardly. To think that such an impatient man is the boss of a company. He is even worse than a newbie like me.

A hint of mockery flashed across her eyes as she thought about it. "Enough with all the talking now, Mr. Lore. Why don't we talk about business? If I remember clearly, there aren't any intersections between your family and me. Is there a reason for your visit today?" she asked.

As Grayson's assistant soothed him, he slowly calmed down and regained his composure, but he still had a grim expression. He looked at her coldly and said, "I don't think we have to beat around the bushes, Sonia. I believe that you know why I am here."

"I'm sorry, but I don't have a clue. Why don't you just say it? I'm not fond of guessing things." Sonia smiled, implying that she wanted him to say for himself rather than admit she knew what exactly happened.
