Drenched in Love

Chapter 12 You Can Quit, But...

Regaining fresh air again, Sophia held her and coughed. Her body shook and she could hardly stand.

Stephen reached out to hold her into arms.

The people who came out from the box saw that, only thought it was a couple doing intimate things.

They did not think too much, but directly walked away.

After the person left, Stephen immediately pushed Sophia away from his arms in disgust. He patted his

white suit without any dust and turned back into the previous box.

This evening, Sophia walked back on her high-heeled shoes with a dozen centimeters.

At dawn the next day, Sophia went to the Berry Group to give her resignation letter to Jennifer.

Jennifer looked at the red mark on her neck and frowned. “You want to resign?”

Sophia nodded, “Yes, Jennifer, I think I am not suitable for job, please approve.”

Sophia knew that if she left the Berry Group, she might not get any work in ST, but thinking of what

Stephen did to her, Sophia felt that it was better to leave. Otherwise she might really die in his hands.

Jennifer pondered for a moment, “Sophia, go back first, I'll give you a reply in the afternoon.”

Sophia knew that Jennifer had her own concerns, nodded and returned to the office.

Outside, Sophia clearly heard the discussion in the office. When she opened the door and entered, the

discussion stopped abruptly. All eyes in the office fell on her, Jealous, ambiguous, hilarious.

Sophia knew her neck was left with red marks, also knew what they would think after seeing these

marks. She sat down on her seat with downcast eyes.

Sophia was thinking for the whole morning if she had offended Stephen, otherwise why he treated her

like that?

Sophia could only come to a conclusion: she had never offended Stephen.

As she was in the Carter Group, she only heard of Stephen's name, but never had an intersection with

him, even met once.

The first time she met him was in the middle of the night when he hit her in his Bentley on the street,

and then yesterday, the second time they met.

Before the morning was over, Jennifer, manager of the public relations department asked Sophia to his

office.

“Sophia, you can resign.”

Upon entering the door, Jennifer said to her in this way.

Sophia secretly relieved: Good. When she submitted her resignation letter, she thought the Berry

Group would not let her go. It looked like she had been overthinking.

Jennifer noticed the barely detectable expression on Sophia's face. She turned over the contract and

showed it to Sophia. Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“You can quit, but... You need to pay the company hundreds of millions of pounds.”

Sophia’s face went stiff, and she immediately took that contract.

It was the entry and contract she signed with the Berry Group two days go. She had a rough look at it

before signing it. Nothing was amiss. Then, looking at the line drawn in black pen, she noticed that on

the third page there was a Clause 21.

She would never be able to resign from the Berry Group unless she was fired by the company. If she

resigned, she should pay a hundred million pounds to the Berry Group.
