“See? Ms. Carter is always so difficult. Even her subordinates give me a hard time—I can’t do my job at all,” Emily added, looking pitiful.
“Sophia Carter, apologize to Emily right now! Did I ever spread nasty rumors about you?” Daniel raised his hand, ready to strike me again.
But Michael was ready. He blocked the blow instantly.
“What the hell? Are you protecting someone else’s woman now? Which one of us is your fiancée? Do you always act like this?” Michael was speechless. Everyone here knew each other, and he clearly hadn’t expected Daniel to really hit me.
“Shut up, Michael Harris! Sophia, you’re nothing but a liar. Even if you brought me an extra million in dowry, I still wouldn’t marry you!”
Ever since Emily came into the corporation, Daniel had turned into a different man.
The clingy fiancé who once couldn’t leave me alone now used “overtime” as an excuse every other day, constantly sending me on business trips just to keep me away.
His concern dwindled, while rumors spread about him taking Emily everywhere. Today I saw the truth with my own eyes.
