Chapter 158
Sophia cast a fleeting glance at Pamela, who was standing aside, and pursed her lips to speak:
“Your person was still waiting for you, go back.”
Nolan’s fists clenched tighter and tighter, his chest heaving heavily.
In the end, it was the eyes that continued to speak, turning around and leaving.
The words Sandra just said were enough to stab him in the heart.
If he had continued speaking, Sandra might have said even harsher words.
He really lost all his face.
Nolan got Pamela into the car, didn’t rush to start it, just punched the steering wheel.
Pamela was startled.

Nolan’s eyes were dim and unclear, he spoke in confusion:
I thought Pierce had genuine feelings for Emelia, but unexpectedly, he kept defending this divorced woman time and time again.
“If he had feelings for Sophia, then why on earth would he have divorced?”
Pamela was by his side, holding his hand, and said softly and slowly:
“The man’s possessiveness was at play. As long as Ms. Cruise hadn’t remarried, she would be considered as his own by Mr. Clement, and of course, he would protect her.”
Nolan’s eyes flashed, “Is that so?”
Pamela leaned on his shoulder and laughed:
“Was that Ms. Clayton your fiancee?”
Nolan’s eyes instantly cleared, immediately denying:
“Of course not, it was just a meeting arranged by the family.”
I was only worried that she would be upset if she knew about me and Riley’s existence.

I shouldn’t have given birth to Riley in the first place, but I just wanted to raise him myself. Without him, I would never have had a child in my life.
“I didn’t need a title, it was enough for you to visit me often.”
Nolan slightly furrowed his brows, but then didn’t say anything.
He simply touched her hair, then started the car.
The rash on Sandra had subsided, but she didn’t go back home. Instead, she went straight to Sophia’s apartment and stayed for the night.
The next day.
The two people woke up, the servant had already prepared their breakfast, waiting for them to get up.
Sandra couldn’t help but look at the lavish breakfast, shaking her head:
“The young lady was just being the young lady, it wouldn’t be normal if she wasn’t extravagant.
Sophia laughed, “It was arranged by my mother. She was worried about me living alone, so she found someone to cook

and clean, but they don’t live here.”
Enough space was left for her.
Sandra sighed with envy:
“My mom just wanted to hand me directly from her hands to the man’s, without any interruption, the Morrison family, huh…”
Sophia slightly furrowed her brows, handing her a cup of milk:
“Your mom wasn’t unaware that he had someone else and a child outside, how could she still agree?”
“According to Nolan’s mother, the child was not Nolan’s. Nolan was taking care of them, merely out of sympathy…”
Sandra couldn’t help but roll her eyes, “Like hell I would believe that.”
Sophia lowered her gaze and shook her head:
“Forget it, too much entanglement is not suitable for you.”
After the two people finished their meal, they went their separate ways.

Sophia went to the company, Sandra returned to her own home.
Not long after arriving at the company, Aylen knocked on the door with a new major production plan in hand.
“Everything was ready, Ms. Cruise, and everything was also in order on Director Geller’s end.”
Sophia nodded, taking a glance at the schedule:
“Alright, let’s do it this way.”
Very quickly.
The topic of “the famous director leaving Eagle Entertainment and the fallout between the two parties” that was hotly debated on the internet a few years ago has been brought up again.
The dispute between Eagle Entertainment and Leonard Geller was an old, worn–out topic from years ago.
It was just that this time it was due to a reversal.
First, Eagle Entertainment released an ice–breaking photo of Leonard and Sophia shaking hands at the opening ceremony, which subsequently caused a great uproar.
Quickly, before netizens could react, Leonard himself also

posted this photo, and attached the word “reliable“.
At this point, everyone understood and went to leave messages one after another.
“Leonard made up with Eagle Entertainment? It was the previous director who pushed Leonard out. Leonard was so angry that he was cursing everyone. I thought they would never deal with each other again!”
“The former director of Eagle Entertainment was spreading negative information about Leonard everywhere, even controlling the direction of public opinion and capital. Leonard could only make low–budget productions, but his reputation didn’t fall, Sophia really has a good eye!”
“Looking forward to the new production, only Leonard could bring out the feel of this play!”
***
The online discussions about their ice–breaking event were
incessant.
The heat and attention far exceeded expectations.
Mike expressed great satisfaction with this.

He even went out of his way to ask her:
“I had sought the help of quite a few people before, but Leonard just wouldn’t give in. How did you manage to do it?”
Sophia laughed, “The producer at the TV station is Leonard’s brother–in–law. I asked Leonard for a small favor through him. Leonard didn’t refuse, so I knew there was a chance.”
“What small favor?”
Mike looked puzzled.
Sophia mysteriously smiled, “Uncle, I won’t tell you.”
The smile on Mike’s face froze, he stared at her speechlessly:
“Your mom and aunt were going to come over at noon, you were to accompany them for lunch.”
Sophia was taken aback, “Why me? Isn’t uncle going?”
“I had arranged to play golf with someone.”
Mike chuckled and turned to leave.

It was still early.
Sophia left the office with the unqualified project files.
She handed it to Aylen on her way, and then planned to go to the underground garage.
As a result, while waiting for the elevator, I happened to run into Colin Hamilton, a shareholder who hadn’t been to the company for a long time, and another female employee, Susie.
Sophia nodded and went in.
They also didn’t go down.
Instead, it was Colin, with his big belly, who glanced at Sophia, sizing her up and down, before opening his mouth with a smile:
“Ms. Cruise, you’ve been at Eagle Entertainment for quite some time, but I’ve never seen you visit my office. Do you look down on me as a minor shareholder?”
Sophia, enduring her inner discomfort, naturally forced a perfunctory smile:
“How could I, Mr. Brant gave me too many tasks, I was really too busy. I’ll definitely go next time when I have the chance.”

It seemed as if Colin couldn’t understand, he opened his mouth and laughed:
“Better to bump into the day than to choose the day, why not go now? I can introduce you to a staff member. Susie is the team leader of the project group. In fact, you have many projects under your hand that you can hand over to her to help you share.”
Susie sauntered over, her body swaying seductively, and reached out towards Sophia:
“Ms. Cruise, nice to meet you, I was Susie.”
Sophia looked her over, shook her hand, paused for a second, and then began to speak with a puzzled expression:
“Susie, how come I didn’t see you at the middle–level meeting?”
Susie paused slightly, gritting her teeth as she looked at Colin.
Colin quickly said, “She just joined the company not long ago, a graduate student from Yale University, highly educated and capable, definitely worth cultivating!”
Sophia nodded, no wonder she still had some arrogance of just stepping out of the gate of a prestigious university.

These were all old problems of the returnees from overseas.
However, she didn’t show any emotion on the surface, just gave a gentle smile:
“Indeed, such talent was hard to come by.”
Colin quickly spoke up, “Since you also admire her, why not come to my office and sit for a while? It’s a good opportunity to discuss the project we’re taking on.”
Sophia paused, smiling subtly:
“Sorry, I had a lunch appointment. I’ll come for tea next time when I get a chance. Ms. Wilson just graduated, she should focus on gaining experience through the project first, there’s no rush to take over.”
Becoming a project leader as soon as one entered the company must have involved some connections.
Otherwise, even the most outstanding university graduates could not possibly succeed overnight.
Sophia was crystal clear in her mind.
