Drenched in Love

Chapter 36 I Was Wrong

As Sophia’s words fell, a sneer was from the back.

Sophia and Hazel turned around and saw Natalia standing behind. She was in a red dress. Natalia was

beautiful, 1.7 meters high, with slim figure. She looked good in red. But compared with Sophia, she was

not better.

Hazel frowned and wanted to speak, Sophia took her hand, “Don't talk to her, let's go.”

“Stop!” Natalia stopped them “Your lie has been exposed and now you pretend to be in magnanimity?

Don't you think it's too late?”

Natalia folded her arms, holding a tall glass and shaking the red liquid in the glass, she said, “The

success of the contract between the Berry Group and the Johnson Group is entirely due to the efforts

of Jennifer. How could you casually claim the credit to yourself with just a few words? I know you are a

newcomer, and you want to prove yourself by competing for achievements, so that you can gain a firm

foothold in the Berry Group. But you dare to take the credit from Jennifer, you are bold!”

Hazel was angry and took a step forward, “Who took the credit of Jennifer?! Let's not say this contract

is settled by Sophia, it was said by you that Sophia settled the contract! Since when did Sophia say it

was her credit?!”

Natalia got pale face and found out the error in Hazel words, “Since Sophia never said the contract was

not settle by her, then how do you know Sophia settled the contract?”

“And, it was circulating in the company and you have heard it. Why didn’t Sophia explain?! Hum, I think

the rumors came from Sophia, so as to fight for the credit of Jennifer! What a shame!”

“Who are you calling shameless?!” Hazel was angry and was to fight.

Natalia took a step back and immediately shouted, “Ah! Do you want to beat me? Do you want to do it

without reason? Don't think I'm afraid of you because there are so many of you!”

The quarrel drew a crowd of onlookers.

Jennifer pushed her way through the crowd, frowned at the tension on both sides, and asked, “What's

the matter? What are you doing?!”

Natalia held her arm, looking startled, “Jennifer, I heard the two of them said that the contract was

settled by Sophia and that you took Sophia's credit. I was angry and scolded them, but they were to

beat me.”

“Natalia, we didn't beat you!” Sophia explained.

Natalia sneered, “That is because Jennifer came! If Jennifer didn't come, you would have already beat

me! Just if it weren't for me to stop you, I don't know how you will frame Jennifer!”

Jennifer glared at Sophia and said, “As for the contract with the Johnson Group, Sophia played the

main role. Mr. Berry gave me face and let me take the credit on behalf of the public relations

department. Right, Sophia?”

Before Sophia spoke, a cold voice was heard in the crowd, “What are you talking about?”

The crowd gave a way. Sophia and Hazel stood on the side, Stephen a white suit stood on the other

side.

Jennifer said with a smile, “Mr. Berry, nothing. We just got together to say a few words.” Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

With doubt, Stephen took a look at Natalia in the crowd.

Natalia was pleased to see that Stephen was looking at her, she stopped forward and said with a smile,

“Mr. Berry, you said the contract with the Johnson Group was Jennifer’s credit, but Sophia was not

convinced and said that the contract was settle by her. And she said it was unfair!”

“You lie! It's not like that! Sophia never said...” Hazel defended Sophia. Stephen looked at her coldly.

Hazel suddenly felt the temperature around lower and she immediately shut her mouth.

Stephen looked at Sophia said in a cold voice, “What the hell is going on?!”

Sophia bowed her head, “The gossip made Hazel misunderstand. The person who won the contract

was Jennifer. It had nothing to do with me.”

Stephen sneered, “You smashed the director's head with a teapot, if not Jennifer dealt with that. Do you

know what the consequence would be?!”

Sophia nodded, “Yes.”

‘You are the boss, and you are right.’

“Thank your manager!”

Sophia immediately looked at Jennifer and lowered her head. “Thank you, Jennifer.”

Jennifer dared not accept it. She was afraid of revenge by Sophia in the future, but seeing Stephen’s

attitude, she could only accept it with a wily smile.

After that, Sophia wanted to come out as soon as possible and hide in the corner for a breath, but

Stephen refused to let her leave.

“What's all that gossip about in the company?”

Stephen's intention was obvious, but Sophia did not want to continue to be bullied by him, “Mr. Berry, I

did not start it. I never said anything like that.”

Stephen chuckled out loud, “It's not you. Then who?” Stephen pointed to Natalia. “What's your name?”

“Mr. Berry, I am Natalia from the public relations department.”

Stephen smiled and looked at Sophia, “Why the gossip said that you won the contract, not that Natalia

won the contract?” He meant ‘You are be the beneficiary of gossip. Who else could it be if you are not

the source of gossip?’

Sophia bit her lip: all right, she would leave from the company soon any way, she endured!

Sophia bowed her head and apologized, “I was wrong.”

Stephen was satisfied, “You should apologize to Jennifer. Jennifer is the victim.”

Sophia apologized to Jennifer, and Stephen felt with satisfaction. After Stephen left, the crowd

dispersed.

Looking at Sophia’s pale face, Hazel hugged her arm, “Sophia, don't be too sad.”

Sophia smiled at her and said she was okay.

Hazel asked with concern, “Sophia, did you offend Mr. Berry? Why did Mr. Berry always give you a

hard time?”

This question made her think of the next morning after they had sex in the hotel. When she woke up,

she was sad and angry, so was he, as if she was the shameless one who had raped him.
