Chapter 356 A Deal No One Refused

Simon Kingsley’s eyes were cold as ice.

He watched Carol lose control without offering a single word of rebuttal. Instead, he simply turned toward the driver.

“Drive.”

Only then did the driver cautiously restart the car.

The black sedan slowly pulled forward before disappearing into the night.

Sophia wandered along the roadside for what felt like forever.

By the time she finally managed to get a cab, her phone had already died.

After returning to her apartment, she stood in front of the mirror and checked her face.

The red imprint of five fingers was painfully obvious.

Growing up, this was the first time Carol had ever hit her.

The more Sophia thought about it, the more wronged she felt.

She wanted to call Elena, but she was afraid Elena would worry, so in the end she called Edmund Grayson instead.

The phone rang for a long time.

No one answered.

Her grievance only deepened.

Sophia wiped away her tears, hung up, then scrolled through her contacts again before finally calling Declan Hayes.

She did not even know why.

But whenever she felt upset and helpless, aside from Edmund, the first person she thought of was always Declan.

Even though he was usually quiet and dull, he always answered whenever she called.

This time was no exception.

The call connected within three seconds.

“What happened?”

Declan’s deep voice sounded beside her ear.

The moment she heard him, Sophia completely broke down.

“Waaah- Declan, my lifes so miserable.

Declan clearly had not expected to hear her crying.

For a moment, he did not even know how to react.

Finished

Sophia did not care whether he answered or not. She immediately started pouring out all her grievances in one breath. By the end, she was crying so hard her nose was running.

“You know what? My mom hit me so hard. How am I supposed to go to work tomorrow? Everyone will immediately know I got slapped…”

“And I even called Edmund, but he didn’t answer…”

Declan had originally wanted to comfort her, but after hearing that last sentence, he suddenly fell silent again.

Sophia loudly blew her nose.

“Why aren’t you talking? Do you also think I’m annoying now, so you don’t want to deal with me anymore?”

“No.”

“Then why are you so quiet? Are you busy?”

Only then did Sophia suddenly remember-

Declan was overseas with Alexander.

Which meant Alexander might be nearby right now.

Sophia instantly panicked.

“My brother’s beside you, isn’t he? He didn’t hear us talking, right?”

“Don’t tell him. And definitely don’t tell Elena either. What if they start worrying?”

“Declan Hayes, did you hear me? If you dare say anything stupid, I’ll get angry. I’ll never speak to you again, understand?”

The young miss tried hard to sound threatening.

Unfortunately, her voice was still thick with tears, making the threat completely unconvincing.

She vaguely heard Declan sigh on the other end.

“Got it. Stop crying.”

There was helplessness hidden in his voice.

“If you keep crying, tomorrow it won’t just be your face that’s swollen. Your eyes will swell too. You’ll look

even worse.”

Declan truly did not know how to comfort people.

He only knew Sophia cared deeply about her appearance, so he instinctively tried to scare her into calming down.

The line suddenly went quiet.

Declan thought his words had worked.

Unexpectedly, Sophia burst into even louder tears the next second.

“Wow, Declan Hayes, you’re getting bolder and bolder now! You aftually dared to call me ugly…”

“I’m cutting ties with you! You’ve officially lost this young lady as your best friend!”

“I never said you were ugly.”

Declan pinched the bridge of his nose and patiently explained.

“You liar! You clearly said I’d look ugly tomorrow. I heard you perfectly well.”

“You’re not ugly.”

“Then tell me I’m pretty. Even if I get beaten into a pig’s head, I’m still pretty.”

Sophia sniffled seriously.

Declan fell silent for two seconds.

“… Even if you were beaten into a pig’s head, you’d still be the prettiest, most beautiful, and most elegant person in the world.”

He spoke in the same serious tone as always, completely lacking any talent for coaxing people.

Yet Sophia still ended up laughing through her tears,

In truth, she had only been feeling wronged.

Now that someone was willing to comfort her and indulge her emotions, most of that grievance quickly disappeared.
