Single Mother: Struggling With The Dangerous CEO

The weather wasn't very good.The sky above was full of ominous, dark, and ragged clouds.The evaluation department was especially quiet today.

It was unknown if it was because of the rain outside or due to the high-level inspection that would be conducted today.

As soon as Sophia arrived at the evaluation department, Giselle hurriedly informed her, "Lianna is looking for you"

She sounded a little annoyed.

Giselle's expression told Sophia that she didn't want to get dragged into her mess and that she must deal with it by herself.

Sophia nodded and thanked her as she went to Lianna's office without delay.When she arrived, she found Lianna reviewing some documents.

The latter saw her standing at the doorway and gestured for her to sit on the chair across her.

It was silent at first, and it prolonged the tension in the atmosphere.Then, Lianna finally raised her bowed head.

Her eyes bored on Sophia's body.

"Sophia, you seemed to get special treatment the moment you entered this company."

There was a hidden meaning in her words.

Sophia's gut feeling told her that the connection between Lianna and Patrick wasn't just a simple boss-employee relationship.

"I'm sorry, I don't understand."

She gave Lianna a puzzled look.

Sophia didn't understand what she was saying all of a sudden.

"Tell me, were you related to someone in the top management, and that's why you're able to get special treatment ?"

Lianna didn't beat around the bush and directly questioned her.

Lianna's tone of voice seemed to be light, but in fact, every word was meant to mock her.

"No, I don't know anyone." Sophia denied.

"If I have to be honest, you lack the ability to be the representative that can be temporarily transferred to another company.However, the higher-ups insisted that I shouldn't replace you."

Lianna narrowed her eyes at Sophia, obviously dismayed that the top management didn't agree with her.

Sophia had no idea what Patrick said to Lianna.

It was obvious that Lianna didn't mention the whole matter.

"Of course, I don't know if the higher-ups deliberately went easy on you or if you are someone that had some unknown secret." Lianna snickered.

Lianna was clearly mocking her, and if she continued to be passive and take all the insults, she would be seen as a pushover who was easily bullied.

"You mean to say that President Evans is the one giving me the special treatment?"

Sophia decided to retaliate a little and throw her a question.

Suppose Lianna wanted to trick her into admitting the truth, then Sophia also wanted to do the same thing.

Lianna stayed silent as she gave Sophia a deadly stare.
