The Reckoning of Love ( Sophia Yancey )

Chapter 57 Work Done

No matter what Thomas motives were, Sophia was still grateful. Despite her stellar performance over the years as Joseph’s secretary, her credit was consistently attributed to the perside regardless of her exceptional performance. Rarely anyone would stand up and speak for her

Thomas was also in a good mood as he witnessed a genuine smile on her face, and even the cafeteria’s communal meal seemed to taste better

After finishing lunch, Sophia prepared to head back to Cleyrora. “With most of the issues resolved E entrust the remaining work to you, Mr. Ulmer. She reverted to her professional and distant demence

“You’re heading straight back to Cleyrora? he inquired

I

“Tll be leaving this evening,” she responded.

Although he smiled in response, a tinge of sadness welled up in his heart, Why is the in sacha hurry he meeting someone there?

“Miss Yancey, I hope you took my advice to heart from yesterday.” Thomas could not help but remind

Sophia glanced at him and could not be bothered to explain any further. Who knows if he’ll turn around and reveal everything I said to Joseph Wouldn’t that delay my escape?

“Okay,” she responded perfunctorily and reached out for the car door.

Seeing this, he immediately helped her open the door. “I was serious about treating you to neal when you get back to Cleyrora, he said sincerely as he gripped the handle.

“Mr. Ulmer, you’re being too polite. I’m just fulfilling my role.” She paused briefly before adding. If Mr. Lynch were to discover our private contact, he wouldn’t be pleased.”

Thomas’ hand stiffened for a moment. Soon after, Sophia closed the car door. As the business car swiftly drove away, he stood in place, his face covered in the dust it had left behind. He raised his hand to brush away the particles obscuring his vision.

Before long, Joseph’s call came. He glanced at his phone and answered the call indifferently. “I heard everything has been resolved over there?” asked Joseph.

Thomas faintly heard Vivian’s voice on the other end. “We’ve informed the media, and an official press release will be issued tomorrow.”

“You’re announcing the engagement to the public so soon?” Thomas asked while deflecting the question

“Yes, Louise and I have come to a mutual agreement. We want to complete these procedures as soon as possible without delaying our plans. How is Sophia doing?” Joseph said.

Thomas did not answer.

Joseph thought the signal was poor on Thomas’ side. “Thomas”

Joseph, stop bothering Sophia. Thomas said sternly.

This time, it was quiet on Joseph’s end.

Since Thomas had spoken up, he decided to express everything at once, “Didn’t Sophia say it herself? Her

Though Joseph sneered. “If you’re taking it so seriously, I’d have to suspect you harbor inappropriate feelings for her

Suddenly. Thomas was taken aback by his remarks
