Chapter 1139 Where Is Your Brain, Grayson?

When Sonia saw her receptionist walking away, she looked back and turned her attention to Grayson, who was sitting on the couch like a boss. “Mr. Lore, it appears that my employee needs my help. I’m going to have to excuse myself now while you sit here until I return. I won’t take long.” Sonia maintained the smile on her face but did so rather indifferently. After all, there was no way she could make herself treat the man with some enthusiasm because she never had any good impressions toward the Lore Family. I haven’t seen a guest who acts so arrogantly on someone else’s turf.

“Go ahead then, but you’d better hurry up; I don’t have all day.” Grayson raised his wrist and looked at his watch, behaving insolently while talking to Sonia. Apparently, he didn’t treat Sonia with respect but instead with contempt and disdain like she was his maid whom he could boss around.

After that, Sonia squinted and kept her head down, hiding the nonchalance in her eyes. At the same time, she reacted with a faint smile before exiting the office. When she was gone, Grayson’s assistant, who had his eyes on the door, spoke to his boss in a concerned manner. “Mr. Lore, was it really necessary to be so mean to Miss Reed?”

With his legs crossed, Grayson stopped shaking them and looked up, glaring at his assistant unhappily. “What are you talking about? Are you on her side?”

“No, of course not.” The assistant shook his head and explained, “I’m not on Miss Reed’s side, Mr. Lore. I’m concerned about us. After all, the reason we’re here is to apologize and ask for Miss Reed’s forgiveness, but your attitude makes us seem like we’re… Here for trouble.” Grayson’s assistant lowered his voice toward the end of his sentence, eventually even losing the courage to look his boss in the eye.

“Are you saying that I’m here to seek trouble?” Grayson’s face darkened even more.

“No, of course not.” The assistant shook his head. “That’s not what I meant. Instead, I’m just saying that the attitude you just showed might not have been appropriate, considering our circumstances. Thus, I think we should be a little more polite. Who knows we may be able to achieve our goal in the end?” The assistant advised Grayson to adopt a more diplomatic approach.

Grayson grunted coldly in response. “What are you talking about? Why should I be polite to her? Who does she think she is?”

left and raised his voice. “She and I are on an equal footing in terms of status. In fact, I’m older than she is, which means she should accept it with grace even though I’m here to offer my apology. If she is smart enough, she’d suggest that we
