Single Mother: Struggling With The Dangerous CEO

When Sophia received the call from Samuel, she was on her way to Golden Pavillion.

Sophia, I told you that if you failed to have this evaluation case signed, you would pay for the damages it would cause, and believe me, it would be a hefty sum.How can you make such a huge mess?!

Samuel's tone was already upset and frustrated as he yelled over the phone.It looked like both of the companies had given him a lot of pressure.

"If you can successfully sign the evaluation case of the Evans Company, it would make you a rising star in the appraising world.Why couldn't you endure it and have to get fired? Can't you try to finish this case?!"

Sophia bit her lip; she couldn't reply to his words.

Yes, these past few years of hardships had also done a lot of mental damage to her, yet how could she not endure it this time? ‘Was it because the person who made things difficult for me...was Lianna?’ Sophia couldn't figure out why.

However, at this moment, there was no turning back for her anymore.

Sophia didn't regret what she did.

"Samuel, how much is the penalty fee?" Sophia's voice was calm and resolute.

Samuel could not believe what he heard.He looked at the screen of his phone in disbelief.

"Sophia, do you know what you're saying?"

"How much is it?"

Sophia continued to press for an answer.

Samuel thought that if he soothed the anger of both sides with the troublemaker's apology, this matter would just pass in a blink of an eye, without trouble.

Unexpectedly, a variable named ‘Sophia’ popped up with her strong-willed personality, wrecking his efforts in attempting to appease the companies.

"About 100,000 dollars, Sophia, come with me to apologize.This matter would be over in a flash if you just say sorry."

Sophia's heart was heavy like a big stone was being pressed down as she heard the sum she would have to pay, "When is the deadline for the payment?"

Sophia had her own set of principles.

Some of the events that happened to her life she could endure easily, and there were some she absolutely couldn't.

"I'll give you half a month to pay for it" Samuel sighed and said in a defeated tone.

Sophia made a sound of acknowledgment and hung up.She would try her best to raise it, and if she couldn't make it in time, she would have to sell her precious necklace.

Sophia touched the diamond necklace that she had put in her wallet.

The jewelry was so clean that it dazzled on her hands when the rays of the sun hit it.

Within the week after she was dismissed and chained with a huge debt to pay, Sophia quickly found a part-time job.

Every day, she would go out minutes before her shift for her work, and at night, she would return home when her shift ended and her coworker who would replace her was present.

Every time she returned home, she would thoroughly wash off the smell of smoke left from her part-time work.

Otherwise, if she was discovered by her mother...

Sophia shuddered fearfully.
