Single Mother: Struggling With The Dangerous CEO

Sophia made a humble remark, indicating the end of her presentation.Since it was an analysis report about the food field, Sophia had little exposure to it, but thankfully, she was well prepared.She performed well and finished the presentation very smoothly.

Patrick, who was seated across from her and should have been concentrating on the presentation, was intensely staring at her as if sizing her up.

This caught Lianna's attention when she lifted her eyes.She was also quite surprised by the intensity of Patrick's gaze on Sophia.She silently wondered, 'Could it be that the President knew Sophia?' Then, she remembered Claire's detailed summary of what happened during that interview.She emphasized Sophia's lack of confidence when answering Patrick's questions.

Strictly speaking, given the high qualification for this position, she had no way of passing the interview.

Unless...

Quite intrigued, Lianna inquisitively gazed at Patrick and Sophia and scrutinized every subtle movement they made that might convey the relationship between them.

Samuel suddenly interrupted the pervading silence inside the conference room by asking, "President Evans, Manager Parson, what do you think of this analysis report?"

Having been in the workplace for some time, Lianna naturally wouldn't steal the spotlight from her superior, so she simply kept her silence and let him speak.

Patrick began indifferently, "Miss Miller, this analysis…”

Deep inside, Sophia felt embarrassed, but she still politely interrupted him by saying, "I apologize for interrupting President Evans, but my surname is Hill"

Then, she deeply looked at him as if trying to figure out whether he was just pretending or he had truly forgotten about her.

Patrick was not flustered when he heard this.

Even his expressions didn't change for a bit.

Upon sensing her penetrating gaze, his eyes moved slowly towards hers.

There was an obvious contempt in his eyes, though he tried to conceal it with his gentle smile.

Only then did Sophia truly understand that even though he clearly remembered her, he was doing this method to draw a line between them and simply remind her of her position.

Since that was what he intended to do, then she'd willingly comply.

After all, she was just a stranger to him.

While he appeared to be enlightened when he heard of this, anyone in the conference room could feel his lack of interest when he carelessly continued, "Oh, so your surname is Hill.Then, I'm sorry, Miss Hill, but I am not quite pleased with this analysis report."

He paused and then ordered Lianna, "Lianna, carefully analyze it for Miss Hill and make sure she knows why we're not satisfied with it"

Sophia could discern the insincerity behind his words, but she had no right to question him.She could do nothing but only accept the blaming glances from Samuel.

After saying this, Patrick, with a calm yet emotionless expression on his face, didn't even bother to look back as he unhurriedly strode out.

Under his solid mask, one could never know how many hidden thoughts he had nor how profound they were.
