Chapter 228 Helpless
After Sophia left, Victor felt irritable, and threw the documents in his hand out vigorously! The document fell to the ground, sliding
across the smooth tile floor to the door and paused. When Sophia got back from the tea room, she noticed the files scattered
beside the door. She put the files in order on Victor's table and set the coffee on the table. "Mr. Victor, these documents are very
important. Please take them."
Sophia's indifference almost suffocated Victor. He pulled his tie to make himself relax. He opened his mailbox and forced himself
not to think too much, just to finish the work first.
When Zed went downstairs and passed by the working area downstairs, he found that Teresa's seat was empty. He walked over
and gently smiled at Molly who was working next to Teresa. "Good morning, Molly."
All of a sudden, the woman named Molly was called by the deputy general manager. She felt extremely flattered. "Good
morning... Morning, Mr. Zed. What can I do for you? "
As usual, a gentle smile spread across Zed's face. He replied, "Nothing. I just want to ask you where is Teresa?"
"Teresa..." After taking a look at the empty seat where Teresa was sitting, Molly said indifferently, "She didn't come to work
today!"
"Really? I see. Thank you! " He then gave Molly a smile again.
"Wow! So handsome! " After Zed left, Molly was still staring at his back. Although Victor looked more handsome than Zed, Victor
was always so cold that nobody dared to get close to him. But in her eyes, Zed was different. He treated everyone with the same
tenderness, even the employees at the bottom. Many employees in the company were fond of Zed.
Teresa didn't come! Perhaps it didn't mean anything, but yesterday, both Victor and Teresa got off work at the same time. It
seemed that they were asked to leave by their family. Since Teresa didn't come to work today, and when he saw Victor in the
morning, Zed also had a vague feeling that Victor was in a bad mood. It was a coincidence, which made Zed suspicious.
Maybe they just went back yesterday to discuss the engagement!
'Looks like Victor didn't say yes, ' Zed thought! At the thought of this, Zed clenched his fists! He thought to himself, 'I really love
Teresa. I wish I could give Teresa the whole world. But Teresa loves Victor wholeheartedly.'! But Victor didn't cherish Teresa. He
hurt Teresa for Sophia!
It was okay that Victor didn't like Teresa. Zed wanted her! But Victor had already possessed Teresa, and tossed her away! How
could Zed bear anyone to hurt the girl he loved? A trace of hatred could be seen in Zed's eyes. He thought to himself, 'Victor, just
wait. I will definitely make you pay for what you have done to Teresa.'.
At that moment, Zed heard the voice from the reception, "Mr. Jay, you are here." The moment Zed raised his head, he saw Jay
walking towards him. Zed took back all his hatred, he smiled politely to Jay. Zed was very clear about Jay. Although Ji family and
Xiao family had been friends for generations, Ji family had a good friendship with Karl and Grace, not his parents. And Jay was
only a nodding acquaintance to Zed. After all, Jay was the best friend of Victor. Therefore, Jay was his enemy now.
When Jay saw Zed, Jay also smiled politely, nodded to him and walked past him. Jay didn't have much impression of Victor's
cousin, who had gone abroad a long time ago. He just knew that Zed liked painting and was not in the mood of doing business.
Although Christopher appointed Zed as the deputy general manager, Victor never regarded him as a threat.
With one hand in his pocket, Jay whistled as he went straight to Victor's office.
Jay had just come back from abroad and hadn't heard anything about what happened between Victor and Teresa. He had
wanted to see how Victor was flirting with Sophia in his office, but he didn't expect that when he opened the door, he saw that
Victor and Sophia were busy doing their work on their desks. They looked very serious.
Jay's appearance told Sophia that he had something to tell Victor. She looked at her watch and it was time for lunch. So Sophia
asked, "Mr. Victor, can I have lunch now?"
During the whole morning, Sophia was called Victor with the word "Mr.", which reminded Victor of the current relationship
between them. With a sigh, Victor waved his hand and said, "Go ahead."
"Okay." Sophia took her handbag and walked out.
When Sophia left, Jay whistled and sat down in front of Victor. He pointed to the door where Sophia had just gone and asked
Victor, "What's going on?"
With a sigh, Victor leaned back and rubbed his temples with his index finger. "It's exactly what you have seen. When you were
away, the world was turning upside down! " He told Jay what had happened recently.
"What? How could Teresa do such things? What a surprise! Sophia is also very interesting. She moved out directly! Dude, you
are in big trouble this time! " Jay shook his head while he said.
"Yes! Sophia. Every time she sees me, it just like that she looks at a stranger and keeps calling me Mr. Victor. These have been
reminding me how much strange we are now! " Victor let out another sigh and shook his head.
"What's more, buddy?" Jay was speechless about that Victor only thought about Sophia's action. "What are you going to do
about An family? Then who is Adam? How could you offend him?"
"Or what do you think I should do? Engaged to Teresa? You know I don't like Teresa at all! " The thought irritated Victor.
"Even if you don't want to, you should promise him first. Maybe you can find another chance to refuse him in the future! What's
so good for you if you break up with An family now? How could you be so impulsive this time? " Said Jay, shaking his head.
"I'm not impulsive. I will make the same choice if you give me one hundred chances. At this moment, if I made a concession, it
would really make me lose everything! '! Once I made a concession, I would always be the one to make a concession! If I marry
Teresa in the end. What should I do then? What about Sophia? " Said Victor helplessly. "Although I have some grudges with
Adam now, and An family is wealthy, but the YS Group is not just a decoration."
"But, don't forget that there is another vice general manager in the YS Group who is waiting to compete with you." Jay reminded
Victor.
"Do you mean Zed?" Victor shook his head and didn't take it seriously. He asked, "Do you mean that Adam will support Zed to
cope with me? He chose a weak fighter. "
"Do you really know your cousin? I met him downstairs just now. Although he tried his best to hide his emotions, I saw him
clearly. For a moment, his eyes flashed with a lot of complex emotions. " Although Jay looked casual and cynical, he was a
reliable man.
Jay's words took Victor by surprise. Victor paused for a moment. But he shook his head at the thought of Zed's harmless look.
"Don't worry, I know my cousin well. But you're right. It's time to guard against Adam. I'll take care of everything here. But now
the most troublesome thing for me is Sophia! Jay, what do you think I should do now? "
"You ask the right person. I'm afraid no one has a better experience in taking a girl than me." Speaking of hitting on the girl, Jay
became casual again and said, "But Victor, it's not like you to be so coward! Don't worry about that. Just feel free and make a
move boldly. That's your style! Why are you still asking me what you should do? "
Victor shook his head. "I can't force Sophia now. I can only wait. I will wait her to forgive me. She said if I forced her, she would
resign and go to a place I couldn't find. If... If she left S City, I would never find her. What should I do then? "
Jay shook his head and said in a disappointed tone, "Dude, I asked you to capture it. I didn't tell you to do it by force! In pursuing
a girl, it was also very important to keep a low profile all the time. You couldn't always use such a hard way, or it would only have
an adverse effect on her! Since it was your fault at first, you apologized to her and offered to show kindness to her. Woman's
heart is soft, if you keep pestering her, she will be with you against! "
"You... You want me to give in? " Victor arched an eyebrow and stared at Jay with contempt. Obviously, it was a very difficult task
for Victor.
"You asked me to give you an idea. This is the best I can think of!" With a shrug, Jay smiled and said, "I know you don't like to
yield to anyone. However, as long as you want to hug a beauty, you have to be able to yield to the principles. You are not yielding
to anyone else, it is the woman you love. What's the big deal with being softhearted to the woman you love?"
Victor lowered his head, pondered on what Jay had said, and then nodded, "You have a point! Then what should I do? " Victor
asked.
"Are you kidding me? You even need me to teach you!" Jay looked at Victor with disappointment. "That's all I can say. The rest is
up to you. As the saying goes, "Master lead the way into the temple, while you cultivate yourself in there." I'm very busy. I will go
back abroad to continue my work for you! I'm here to send you some documents today. Don't forget that you have a company
abroad! Here's the thing. I'm going home to sleep and fix my jet lag." As soon as Jay finished his words, he left Victor's office like
a gust of wind.
It took a while for Victor to get back his sense while he looked at the extra documents on his desk. He couldn't help smiling and
thought, 'Jay always acts like this!'!
