Chapter 1304

Sophia rubbed her fingers all over the lipstick on the corner of her lips. “For giving me this opportunity,

of course! I wouldn’t have been able to take advantage of the situation if you hadn’t made Jeremy feel

bad yesterday! Once he got a taste of my body, his attitude toward me changed completely. As soon as

I came in, he got up, hugged me, and kissed me so deeply that my lipstick was all smudged!”

‘Oh, so he left the camera just to kiss Sophia?’ Corinne felt nauseated.

Jeremy continued to lead Corinne on just to keep her grounded and ensure the baby was all right.

Perhaps he might still have feelings for her, but she was not the only person he had feelings for. That

Sophia could enter and exit his office on a whim was a clear sign of that.

Corinne smiled. “Congratulations on finally getting your man, then! Although, I must say that your sultry

appearance is ill-suited to your shy act. Try to be more straightforward next time!”

Sophia’s expression froze for a moment, but she smiled and said, “Corinne, you—”

The call ended right away.

Sophia stared at the blacked-out phone screen and snorted. Corinne might act as if she did not care,

but Sophia knew she felt otherwise.

Jeremy never actually accepted her invitation to have a drink with her at the hotel. He asked his driver

to leave as soon as Sophia had been dropped off. However, the truth was not important as long as

Corinne’s misunderstanding was perpetuated. Her refusal to forgive Jeremy was essential as that was

the catalyst for increasing the distance between them. Sooner or later, they would continue to drift

apart.

At that moment, Jeremy pushed the office door open and came back. He had left to meet an

unexpected guest earlier. As soon as he saw Sophia sitting on his desk, his expression sank, and he

asked coldly, “Why are you here? Who let you in?”

Sophia stood up nervously and pretended to smile naturally. “Jeremy! You’re finally back! I just came in

less than a minute ago! I noticed that your secretary wasn’t around, so I tried knocking on your door.

No one answered me, so I opened the door and came in to see if everything was alright. I was a little

tired from wearing high heels, so I accidentally sprained my foot when I went up the stairs. It was a little

hard for me to walk, so I thought I could rest my feet and sit here. We’ve been friends for so many

years now. You don’t mind me sitting in your chair, do you?”

Jeremy walked over. He glanced at the chair that she had sat on and looked at the phone that was

placed on the desk. He asked in a deep voice, “Did you touch my phone?”

Sophia shook her head. “I didn’t! The screen wasn’t lit when I sat here. I thought it was a bit strange

that you’d place your phone on the pen holder like that, but I didn’t dare to touch it. I know you don’t like

other people touching your belongings.”

Jeremy narrowed his eyes. “Why are you here?”

Sophia walked across the table with a smile and held up a bag of exquisite gifts she brought. “I brought

you some black truffle chocolates. They’re birthday presents from my friends abroad. I have two boxes

here, and I’d like you to have one. They’re delicious!”

Jeremy did not even look at what Sophia was holding. He strode over and took his hand out from his

trouser pocket to grab his phone. He glanced at the call duration and said, “I don’t want you coming

here and giving me these things anymore.”

Sophia lamented, “I’m just trying to be nice, Jeremy. Can’t I share some good food with you? I’m

worried you’re working too hard too. Don’t you consider me your friend anymore?”

Jeremy clicked on Corinne’s profile and saw that she made a post just a minute ago.

[I used to be afraid of snakes when I was a child. Now that I’m an adult, I’m more afraid of snakes in

suits.]

Jeremy narrowed his eyes and thought to himself, ‘Who is she talking about?’
