Now Sophia understood the saying, never judge by appearances. Quincy had always behaved like a kind elder. She hadn't expect that out of him.
Sophia was really depressed when she walked out of the personnel department. Jamie openly bullied her in the morning. Then Quincy took advantage of her. Sophia felt like the world was conspiring against her today.
She sniffed as she walked out of the office with her head bowed.
She didn't even notice Colin.
Colin frowned, and looked at her. When they passed each other, her sadness was evident to him.
He maintained his composure as he walked into the elevator. When he arrived at the 88th floor, he shouted to the secretary's office, "Miss Lo."
Serena quickly stood up from her position. "Mr. Li, Miss Lo went to ask the HR manager for leave!"
"I see." Colin returned to his office lost in thought. He sent for Wade Chi.
Wade Chi was the Secretary General of the secretary's office. All the requests for leave by secretaries on the 88th floor would go to him.
"Mr. Li."
Colin looked at Wade, "How long does Miss Lo need leave for?"
Wade was slightly shocked, "Mr. Li, I haven't received Miss Lo's note for leave."
No note for leave? Colin tapped his finger on the table as he thought. After a long time, he spoke to Wade. "Call Quincy. Ask him."
Wade nodded, took out his cellphone from his pocket, and dialed.
"Hello, Mr. Chu, this is Wade Chi."
"Hello, Mr. Chi." Quincy spoke kindly.
"Did Sophia Lo ask for leave. Have you approved?" Wade looked at Colin, and opened the hands free mode.
"Miss Lo? I'm not sure. She said she needed leave, but then she said she didn't need it, and then she left!"
"Well, thank you, Mr. Chu."
"You're welcome. Bye!"
After Wade hung up, Colin dismissed him.
Standing in front of the window, Colin pulled out his cell phone, and called Sophia, "Where are you? Come to my office. I need to tell you something about Lien's contract signing for this evening."
Sophia looked at the passing scenery outside the window, and sa
“Who does she think she is? I won’t marry her even if she is the last woman on earth,” said Hiram Rong.
“Marry into a family with tens of billions of assets? How lucky I am! I won’t be so foolish as to break off the engagement. At worst, I can receive money as part of the divorce settlement,” said Rachel Ruan.
Their great-grandfathers made a pact about their engagement a hundred years ago...
s her son had made a concession, Wendy couldn't rebuke him too much. "Colin, don't arrange for too much work for Sophia. I asked Sophia to come here to accompany you, not to work for you. Instead of using her time to work for you, you should let her rest, be in a good mood, and have a child as soon as possible!"
.......
The two of them stopped eating at the same time, looked at each other, and averted their eyes with guilt.
A child...
Colin didn't say anything. And Sophia quickly nodded, "Sure, mom. You can trust us! We are trying very hard everyday!" They were trying very hard... to hate each other and get divorced.
Colin shot Sophia a quizzical look before quietly continuing to eat.
Wendy happily picked up her bowl when she heard that, "That's very good. Come, let's eat. Sophia, have some more fish and sirloin..."
After lunch, Sophia was more than half an hour late.
Sophia remembered what happened in the morning. She put on her shoes in a hurry, "Mom, I got to go!"
With what happened in the morning, she wouldn't believe Colin would be kind enough to give her a ride.
Then she quickly opened the door, and walked out of the villa.
Half an hour would cost her 200 Yuan, and if she skipped work for more than an hour, it would be 700, the equivalent of her salary for a day.
She couldn't lose her bonus, and another $700.
