Chapter 400
Clayton lay, completely spent, on the couch. He had never been in such a wretched state before, as he had busied himself asking around for favors all day.
Willow didn't dare utter a word as she kept him company.
“Clayton, are you okay? Do you want some coffee?” This will be an excellent opportunity for me to get on Clayton's good side. I will be his only woman once he pulls himself together if I can show him the love and support he needs now. I will have nothing to fear by then.
Clayton sat up and stared at Willow coldly.
"Who let you in?”
Willow shuddered.
What's gotten into him? Why is he so scary?
“Clayton, I came over because I was worried about you. I don't mean anything else!”
“You? Worry about me? Willow, do you know why I'm in such a state today?” Clayton's temper flared up.
He had been running around asking for favors and licking boots all because of her.
“Clayton, I know it's all because of Sophie. But I have nothing to do with her. I'm on your side.”
"Really?”
Clayton stood up, made his way over, wrapped his arm around her waist, and pulled her toward him.
“You like me that much, huh? You wanna stay by my side, don't you?” Of course, Clayton knew what she was after.
Willow nodded.
“Clayton, I really like you. I will do whatever it takes to stay by your side,” she said determinedly.
“Is that so? Well, you can stay if you can trick Sophie over. You know how much of a pinch I'm in right now. I can be with you once my problems are taken care of.” Clayton bit her lips.
Willow's heart raced.
She knew that this was her only chance.
“All right, Clayton. I'll do whatever you ask of me,” she said as an idea formed in her head.
“Show me your sincerity,” Clayton said gently. “I know you like me, but you're just one of many. You have to show me you're the one who likes me most, right?”
Willow nodded.
“Okay, Clayton. I'll show you how much I like you.”
Willow left at that.
Clayton scoffed, “Sophie? Hmph, we'll see who has the last laugh.” Does she think I'm a pushover? I'm not letting her off that easily after everything she has done to me.
It had been a while since Sophie had visited Tanner Group because of her university entrance exam. She took time out of her busy schedule to visit Tanner Group now that her university entrance exam was over.
The board of directors of Tanner Group didn't know that Sophie would be coming. However, everyone was doing their job when she arrived.
Sophie was pleased with what she saw.
"Ms. Tanner!”
"Good day, Ms. Tanner!”
She was greeted by many of her employees along the way. One could say that business was flourishing for Tanner Group.
Sophie made her way toward Victor's office, only to find a young lady making a fuss at the door.
“I want to see Victor. Where did he go? Get his ass over now!” the young lady said arrogantly.
“Miss, Mr. White is not in. Please leave.” Victor's secretary replied in a level tone.
