Sophia felt appalled after hearing what Patrick wanted to say but chose to ask Claire to deliver his message instead.

Patrick was still the same as he was five years ago.

Even if he said something bad about someone, he could still say it so subtly.

His word had always easily put all of one's efforts to hell, negating all of them.

Sophia took a deep breath to calm herself down before replying, "Then, Miss Williams, please tell the president that being young and naive is the only explanation for my persistence."

Yes, when she had been young and naive, she would chase after him for five years without caring about the consequences.

It wasn't until much later that she realized that he had another woman in his heart.

But she still chose to be the moth to his flame as she willingly accepted her role as a bystander in their relationship.

In the end, what she got in return was his unapologetic dismissal of their shared past.

Now, she didn't want to get her hopes up and end up hurting herself for the second time.

The past was already in the past, and the current Sophia had already lost her pride and arrogance.

She lived a mediocre and peaceful life, just like the majority of the population.

Now, her only hope for the future was to have a stable life and to earn more money so she could afford to give Emma a better life so that her mother's illness could stabilize a little.

She sealed her desires and pointless hopes tightly in her heart, and the rest, she just treated it as a wild and absurd dream in her youth.

Her dream of a fairy tale romance was long gone; the magic slowly faded away with time.

The next day, she officially stepped into the building of Evans Enterprise Media as a temporary employee.

Sophia looked around at the sleek interior of the building in awe as she made her way to the data center evaluation department.

The manager, Lianna, was wearing a fashionable black suit with thick makeup and red lips.

She stood in front of everyone with her back straightened as she held the morning meeting.

"This month's performance has been deficient.Was I being too lenient with everybody? Do you think it is acceptable if you arrive late then leave at an earlier time? If you only have this kind of working attitude, then I am sorry.The Evans Group will not keep such an employee.Please think about it if you guys did enough work, or do you just want to get your salary without any performance?"

Lianna walked back and forth in her seven-centimeter high heels.

When she spoke to the point of excitement, she had almost used all of her body movements and gestures to make her points.

The atmosphere in the evaluation department was gloomy.

The employees of the evaluation department were almost all women.
