Chapter 350 Sophie felt like she was being watched. She quickly turned around, and when she saw it was Bernard, her face lit up with joy âBernard, you finally decided to see me...â
She quickened her pace, running to him.
âBernard, for the past three years, Iâve been shut out by you. Do you know how much I missed you?â
Bernard smirked, âYou missed me?â
Sophie, tears welling up in her eyes, nodded fervently, âBernard, I once told you that Iâve liked you since we were kids. How could I not miss you?â
Bernard lifted his indifferent eyes, staring coldly at her, âWhat about my brother?â
Sophieâs lace changed, a hint of guilt flashed in her eyes, but she still firmly said, âI never loved your brother. It was always you. If it wasnât for you being so aloof, why would I agree to date your older brother...â
As she finished, she tried to grab Bernardâs hand. But before her hand could touch his fingers, he swiftly withdrew it.
This rejection made Sophie feel humiliated, followed by a rush of regret.
âI was such a fool. I turned down your proposal to avoid creating a misunderstanding. I should have married you right after your brotherâs death!â
If she had married him back then, how could that annoying Eleanor have any chance?
She thought Bernard wasnât interested in her because she couldnât meet his standards, so she decided to go abroad to better herself.
But to her surprise, Bernard found a woman who looked somewhat like her after she left.
She never thought it would turn out this way. Why wasnât Bernard interested in her, even though they looked so much alike?
Every time she thought of Bernard, a man obsessed with cleanliness, getting intimate with another woman, Sophie felt indignant.
She looked at Bernardâs cold face, yelling angrily, âBernard, no matter what, you promised my brother you would marry me. You canât break your promise!â Bernardâs smirk became more pronounced, âYou deceived my brotherâs feelings to get close to me, and you still want me to marry you?
Dream on!â
If he didnât know the truth before, he might have married her out of respect for his brotherâs dying wish, but now.....
Bernard raised his hand, signaling the security guard at the gate.:
The guard quickly approached, bowing respectfully, âWhat can I do for you, Mr. Laurence?â
Bernard pointed at Sophie standing in front of the car, âShe just slapped you. Slap her back!â:
The guard was stunned, not expecting his boss to stand up for him.
Feeling somewhat flattered, the guard responded, âYes, sir, and then he stood up straight and slapped Sophie hard.
It was his bossâs command, he couldnât defy his discipline as a retired special forces soldier.
Sophie, who was knocked to the ground, looked at Bernard in disbelief, âHow could you... how could you let a lowâlife hit me?!â
Bernard seemed not to hear, pulling out a wet wipe and handing it to the guard, âIt is dirty, wipe it off.â
The guard, initially upset by Sophieâs insult, didnât expect his boss to take his side in such a way.
Taking the wet wipe, he started to clean the place where he had touched Sophie.
This was a ruthless trampling on Sophieâs dignity.
He knew she looked down on these guards, but he still chose to humiliate her in this way!
The âdirtyâ he mentioned was clearly implying she was no nobler than these guards, perhaps even less.
Enraged beyond her limits, Sophie suddenly sprang to her feet and charged at Bernard, but the guard was quick to grab her.
While struggling, Sophie gritted her teeth and said, âBernard, youâve gone too far. You broke off our engagement, took over the Ratliff familyâs business, leaving me no way out. I wonât give you any chances either. Just you wait!â
Bernard gave her one last cold look, âYou should be grateful that my brother loved you when he was alive, otherwise...â
