Chapter 109 Hit The Headlines
Sophia shook her head, and said in a husky voice, "I was very angry before, but I couldn't make it after seeing you." She felt like she had quarreled with others for the whole afternoon and now she didn't even have the strength to talk.
And Sophia's words made his heart ache. Victor couldn't bear that others insulted his woman again and again. He would definitely get back ten times or even a hundred times for what she had suffered today! This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
At the thought of this, Victor clenched his fists...
It was getting dark outside the office. The wind outside the window blew into the office, making the atmosphere bone chilling, as if a storm was coming.

Next morning.
The news of Sophia had spread all over the company, because of Jenny.
For the general employees of the company, it was a new position. Sophia got envied by the vast majority of female employees because of her stunning appearance. Now with such a thing, the women naturally gave their best to the fullest, discussing various versions of the post excitedly.
It was still a few minutes before Sophia got to work, but wherever she went, she always felt that someone was watching her inexplicably. But when she looked back, she couldn't see anything. Maybe it was because she didn't sleep well last night, Sophia comforted herself briefly. Then she yawned and walked into the elevator tiredly.
And the people in the elevator also strange today. The colleagues who had been chatting happily earlier stopped talking when they found Sophia entering the elevator. At the same time, they quickly put away their mobile phones and pretend that nothing had happened. Sitting in the elevator with Sophia...
Everything was made Sophia perplex. What had happened?
It wasn't until Sophia got back to her office and turned on her computer that she had understood everything. Someone uploaded the video in which Jenny and her quarreled with each other yesterday on the Internet. It was also related to the public opinion of Victor, and made the headlines together!
The headline of the news was bold enough to stare at: the assistant of the YS Group was in a disturbed private life as she only wanted to be promoted. Her background was actually a illegitimate daughter of the JH Group...
The photo with the title showed that Caspar came to have chat at Tea Culture with Sophia yesterday afternoon. Below the video was a lot of photos showing how Jenny and Sophia fought. Some of the men had uploaded the video. At the same time, it was mentioned in the news about the CEO of the YS Group - Victor, to reveal that he had abandoned his fiancee and lived a life with Sophia...
What the news said was so explosive that it was reasonable to misinterpret the fact. But the people without any reason didn't care whether the news was true or not. As long as there was something hot to attract the attention, it would attract everyone's attention.
Victor had to deal with something in person, so the rumor hadn't been heard from him yet. Otherwise, he would be pissed off when he saw this in the company.
The big office now was empty with only Sophia. She had never thought that one day her real identity would be exposed to the public like this. It was like a night of wandering on a street when her clothes were stripped.

In the CEO's office of the Mu Group, Jeremy also saw this gossip in the early morning.
"A woman whose family name is Sophia, dated different men many times while relying on the power of the president of the YS Group... A woman was having dinner with three men in Garden Revolving Restaurant. Because of her outstanding appearance, she received a variety of luxurious flowers during work, and there were always mysterious men picking her up with the car... "
Jeremy raised his eyebrows. The mysterious man was... Could it be himself? The headline of this news was very clear. It almost exposed Sophia's private life to the public, making people can't afford it. Jeremy worried about Sophia, so he called her.
Sophia's gentle voice came from the other end of the phone, "Jeremy, what's wrong?" Sophia got up and walked to the window.
"Nothing. I just read the news. I'm a little worried about you. Are you okay?" Jeremy's voice was as gentle as before, making people feel comfortable to listen to him. He knew Sophia very well. She was a woman who always thought highly of herself, so she must be greatly shocked by this news. Moreover, this news was very comprehensive, even including Jeremy himself, so the person behind the scenes would not be so easily to let it go.
Sophia cleared her throat and said with a pretended lightness, "it doesn't matter. I didn't expect to be famous since it is my first time on the news. Ha ha!" She mocked at herself, but she felt bitter in her heart.
At this time, Victor just came back to the company. When he opened the door of his office, he heard Sophia's voice talking on the phone. Although the person on the other end of the line couldn't hear clearly what the other end of the line said, Victor was sure that it was an opposite sex to Sophia. Since Sophia had her back to the door, she didn't know what was going on.
"Sophia, I guess someone set a trap for you. Be careful during this period, especially in going our!" Although Sophia was pretending to be strong, Jeremy didn't have the heart to expose her, so he had to
go on with it, reminding her of all the matters she needed to take care of recently. Besides, don't think too much. A clean hand wants no washing. If you are in a bad mood, you can contact me at any time. I will stay with you... " Jeremy continued.
"Jeremy, thank you." Said Sophia gratefully. But she didn't want to deal with Jeremy in this way. She knew that Jeremy loved her very much, but there was nothing else between them except friendship. So, when Sophia thanked him, she interrupted and didn't want Jeremy to go on talking.
Upon hearing this, Victor lifted his brows. He stretched out his long arm to encircle Sophia who was on the phone. Sophia was startled by the sudden move. "You're back?" She asked in a low voice.
"Yes," Victor snorted in a thick and husky voice, and then rested his head on Sophia's shoulder to smell her body scent. Sophia gently pushed Victor's arm away and pointed at her phone to show that she was talking to someone. But Victor didn't think so. He did it on purpose. He wanted to announce the world immediately that Sophia was his woman to eliminate the covet of everyone!
Although Sophia had deliberately lowered the volume, Jeremy still heard the conversation between her and Victor through the phone. Jeremy's heart was filled with bitterness. He forced a smile and said, "Sophia, you don't need to be so conventional with me..."
"I really appreciate that you are still thinking about calling me and caring about me under such circumstance. Anyway, Jeremy, thank you. But don't waste your time on me anymore. You know what I mean. " Sophia said slowly. Her hand which held the phone was sore. She held the phone in the other hand and said, "if you don't have anything else to do, that's all..." Sophia wanted to end the call as soon as possible, but she knew that Jeremy would wait for her to hang up.
Thus, Sophia hung up the phone immediately. She had made it clear to Jeremy deliberately in front of Victor. First, she was afraid that the possessive Victor would be jealous. Second, since she had already
been with Victor, she couldn't give another man hope. She was responsible for herself, and also for others.
Jeremy was about to say something, but he heard the cold beep from the other end of the phone. He put down the phone and stared blankly at the glass of water on the desk, inexplicably out of his mind...
"Have you finished talking?" Sophia put her phone back to the desk. Victor stressed the words "chatting" deliberately. Although it was just a normal phone call, the idea of Jeremy pursuing Sophia somehow upset Victor. It suddenly occurred to Victor that Sophia was an excellent woman could easily get many men chasing after her. It was a piece of cake for him.
Then he embraced her with his arms and blew on her body. He murmured, "I miss you..." Sophia also tilted her head to Victor's slightly sturdy arm. It was only a morning, but why did she feel so tired?
Sophia and Victor knew well for the news spread online. But they didn't tell each other directly. They had tacit understanding. Sophia gently held Victor's hand and patted it to reassure him that she was fine and she didn't need him to worry about her. And Victor rested his chin on Sophia's forehead. They didn't say a word to each other. They just enjoyed the time quietly...

The sun was shining brightly today. It was not so hot as several days ago. Connie had invited Grace to have a cup of coffee and Connie wanted to tell her about the news she had prepared.
Their coffee shop was open-air, and the sun was not so dazzling today. The sunlight lazily sprinkled on the body, making people feel very comfortable.
Wearing a pair of wine red sunglasses, Grace looked very happy. With these thoughts in Connie's mind, she silently took up the coffee and had a sip of it. Then she looked up at Grace, who wore a calm expression on her face, and began thinking about what she should say next.
Connie took out her phone and pretended to read the website. When she saw the news, she shouted in surprise, which drew attention of Grace. Grace asked, "what's wrong?"
Connie pretended to look around with worries and made sure that there were no acquaintance within several meters. Frowning, she said, "Grace, I've seen something bad, and I don't know if I should tell you..."
