Chapter1304
Sophia deliberately rubbed off the lipstick on the comer of her lips with her finger.
“I’ve gottathankya for the opportunity you created for me. If you hadn’t pissed off Theo yesterday, I might not have had achance to get closetohim. Ever since Theachose to give being with me a shot, he’s been different towards me. The moment I walked in just now, he stoodup, came over, and kissed me. He totally smooched off my lipstick!”
Did Theo just step off camera to kiss Sophia?
Ellinor felt sick to her stomach.
Theo’s ambiguous attitude towards her was just to keep her steady and protect their child.
He might still have feelings for her, but it was not like she was the only one.
This could be deduced from the fact that Sophia could freely come and go from his office.
Ellinor gave her a slight smile. “Then congrats on finally stepping into his life. But, given your outgoing personality, playing the shy card doesn’t really suit you. Being direct might be more your style, Ms. Sophia.”
Sophia’s face froze, andthen she laughed. “Ellinor…”
Beep!
The video call was cut off.
Sophia stared at the phone’s black screen, huffing in anger.
Although Ellinor seemed indifferent, she didn’t believe that she was unaffected.
In truth, Theo didn’t accept her invitation to go upstairs last night. He just had his driver take him away.
But the truth didn’t matter. As long as Ellinor kept misunderstanding and refusing to forgive Theo, their conflicts would deepen and they would gradually drift apart.
Just then, Theo pushed the door open and came back in. He had just gone out to meet an unexpected visitor.
After walking in and seeing Sophia sitting on his desk, he frowned and said coldly, “What are you doing here? Who let you in?”
Sophia immediately stood up, putting on a calm smile.
“Theo, you’re finally back! I just came in less than a minute ago. When I arrived, I saw that your secretary was away. I knocked on your office door, and when there was no answer, I just came in to check.
I got a bit tired since I’m wearing high heels and even twisted my ankle when I was climbing the steps, so I’m just sitting here to rest for
a bit.
Theo, we’ve been friends for many years. I just sat on your chair; you wouldn’t mind, would you?”
Theo looked at his office chair that she had been sitting on and then at his phone on the table, which now no longer showed Ellinor’s face. He asked sternly, “Did you touch my phone?”
Sophia shook her head. “No, I didn’t! Your phone was off when I was sitting here. I thought it was odd that you had your phone in the pencil holder, but since I know you don’t like people messing with your phone, I didn’t touch it.”
Theo gave her a look. “Hmm, what did you want?”
Without even glancing at the gift box in Sophia’s hand, Theo strode over, took out his phone from his pocket, and looked at the call duration he had with Ellinor “You don’t need to go out of your way to bring me these things.”
Sophia sighed with a self–pitying tone. “Theo, I meant well; I was concerned you’re working too hard. Can’t I come and share some food with you? Are we still friends?”
Theo opened Ellinor’s profile and glanced at it. He saw she had posted a tweet a minute ago.
“When I was little, I was afraid of ghosts because they looked scary.
Now that I’m older, I’m afraid of people because they’re only polite on the surface.”
Theo narrowed his eyes. Who was she talking about?
