Anna kept mentioning Asher Land, left and right, making Sophie Smith feel that Anna’s dislike for her was mostly related to Asher Land.
But why did Anna say she ended up because of her?
She couldn’t understand.
"You’ve become , it doesn’t seem to have much to do with me." Sophie said, looking up.
No relation? If Asher Land didn’t spoil her, didn’t want to possess her, he wouldn’t have been unable to stand Wyatt Sterling getting close to her, and he wouldn’t have had me ruin Wyatt Sterling.
Anna’s eyes became somewhat terrifying, she pushed closer to Sophie, leaning into her ear.
"President Land wanted me to ruin Wyatt Sterling; you are the true culprit of this scandal."
After saying this, Anna strutted away in her stiletto heels.
That’s right, she wanted Sophie to feel guilty, to feel remorse, to make her hate Asher Land, hoping a rift would form between them.
Both are Asher Land’s women, only she became Asher Land’s pawn, while Sophie flaunted with Asher Land’s favor.
It was President Land who wanted me to ruin Wyatt Sterling, you are the true culprit of this scandal.
Anna’s words echoed in her ears, Sophie clenched her fists tight, her nails digging harshly into her flesh, her body frozen in place, trembling uncontrollably.
"Sophie, what’s wrong?" Julia Brown saw Sophie’s pale face, thinking she might be physically unwell, quickly suggested she go to the rest area to rest.
"Julia, I can’t attend this afternoon’s schedule, please make sure to explain to Sister Sunny no matter what excuse you use, okay?" Sophie’s voice was somewhat unstable, Julia nodded repeatedly, afraid there was a problem with her health.
"Sophie, you go rest, I’ll explain to Sister Sunny."
Sophie said nothing more, she needed to find Asher Land and get to the bottom of all this, immediately! Instantly!
She called him, he said he was in the office now.
"I want to see you." She tried to keep her voice calm.
"Only two hours apart and you miss me so much?" Asher Land felt a hint of pleasure, proactively wanting to see him? That’s truly rare.
"Yes." Her voice revealed nothing unusual.
"Come to the office, I’ll wait for you downstairs in the café."
Sophie remained silent for a moment, then nodded and agreed.
Asher Land’s long fingers stirred the bitter coffee in his cup, Sophie sat opposite him, saying nothing.
A touch of late autumn sunlight refracted through the floor-to-ceiling window, tranquil, warm.
If she didn’t speak, this would be a beautiful scene.
"Wyatt Sterling’s matter is related to you." It wasn’t a question, but a statement.
His stirring motion stopped, lifting his cold eyes to examine her.
"You’re here for Wyatt Sterling?" He snorted coldly; he thought she would change today!
"Why did you do this? Is causing others pain your pleasure?" She sat across, her anger drowning all her reason.
"Asher Land, you’re just an arrogant, conceited, presumptuous bastard."
Arrogant? Conceited? Presumptuous?
Ha, pretty eloquent, speaking so fluently.
His lips curled into a devilish smile, "You forgot to mention one thing, besides being arrogant, conceited, and presumptuous, I’m also particularly selfish."
If not for the selfish desire to possess her, he wouldn’t have been unable to stand Wyatt Sterling getting close to her.
He could easily see her anger, but what did it matter? He wouldn’t feel remorse for everything he had done just because of her anger.
"Asher Land, you know, from beginning to end, your happiness is built on the pain of others, destroying whoever you want to destroy, I don’t want to have any connection with a demon like you ever again!"
