Chapter 207 Lots Of Attention
Wilma shook her head and said, “Let’s head inside, Ms. Sophie!” Since the others were acting like they were Sophie’s hardcore fans, she decided to approach Sophie directly.
“Mhm,” Sophie didn’t want to waste more time there and went into the building with the pretty ladies. As all of them worked in a cosmetic company, Wilma had asked them to learn how to put on makeup. To her, that was a very basic request.
Yet, Sophie still looked better than all of them without makeup. Tristan’s car remained in the same spot until he was no longer able to see her figure.
Sitting inside the conference room, Sophie was pretty satisfied as she flipped through the reports on the profits Transfix Cosmetics had made for the past month.
After all, a month ago, Transfix Cosmetics’ reputation was still in shambles. Yet, in just a single month, the company is already doing pretty well.
“What do you think we should do to secure our victory, Ms. Sophie?” Wilma knew about the bet between Sophie and Tanner Group.
It was her hope that Sophie would continue to lead them. That was why she wanted to ensure that the company’s performance was excellent.
“All of you are already doing a great job,” Sophie praised satisfactorily.
It made her happy that the people she chose didn’t disappoint her.
In response to that, Wilma let out a sigh of relief.
“Thank you all for your hard work. When the annual meeting rolls around, I’ll give everyone a bonus,” Sophie announced.
“This is our job, Ms. Sophie.” Wilma knew there was no way Sophie would mistreat those who worked earnestly.
Still, she was grateful because she was happy to have a boss like her.
It was then someone knocked on the conference room door.
“Come in.” Wilma frowned. Who’s interrupting us right now? Don’t they know I’m having a serious meeting with Ms. Sophie?
When the door opened, Wendy poked her head in first.
The moment she saw Sophie’s face, she blushed.
Then she served a cup of coffee to Sophie. “This coffee tastes really good, Ms. Sophie. A relative of mine bought it from overseas. Give it a try.”
Ever since what happened on Jinrich Island, Wendy had been trying to repay her gratitude to Sophie. However, that chance didn’t surface at all until Sophie showed up at the company for the meeting.
That was because Wilma had been using video calls to communicate with Sophie, even when Transfix Cosmetics was in trouble. Finally, Wendy had her chance.
Seeing how Wendy was acting made Wilma smile.
“All right, you should leave now. Ms. Sophie and I still have some matters to attend to.” Wilma spoke. Why are my subordinates all so cute? She has been completely captivated by Ms. Sophie. It’s amazing how charismatic Ms. Sophie is. She can capture the hearts of both sexes!
It wasn’t until Wendy left the conference room that Wilma said, “Do excuse her, Ms. Sophie. She’s still young.”
“It’s fine. She’s cute.” Even though Sophie was younger than Wendy, she described the latter as cute.
That amused Wilma a little.
“In any case, we only have three more days. In these last three days, Transfix Cosmetics will have to complete the final sprint to the goal.” Sophie suddenly changed the topic.
Upon hearing that, Wilma became serious as she grabbed her pen and paper before recording everything Sophie said.
The moment she heard the advertisement Sophie had in mind, she became very excited. Ms. Sophie is simply awesome! Only someone like her can come up with a plan like this.
“I’m on holiday now, so I have more time to help out. Call me if you’re facing any problems.” Sophie then stood up.
“You’re leaving Ms. Sophie?”
“Mhm.”
At one in the afternoon, Tristan called Sophie.
At that moment, she was playing a game at Wings of Light’s headquarters.
No one would expect that the invincible Phantom would want to do nothing but play games in Wings of Light.
“Don’t you think you’re playing too many games, Phantom? You should be taking on more jobs instead of doing that,” Butterly grumbled.
“I’m not interested.” Sophie is not short of money.
Thus, whether she wanted to take on a job depended on her mood.
At that moment, she didn’t find the available jobs interesting enough, so she found no reason to accept them.
“You! I have no idea what to do with you.” The clients specifically asked for Phantom, so if she didn’t want to take on any of the jobs, Butterfly had no choice but to reject them.
“Every single member of Wings of Light is the best of the best. It won’t be interesting if they only ask for me,” Sophie responded.
All members of Wings of Light were handpicked by her, so their abilities were more or less on the same level as hers.
“That’s right! Our abilities may be comparable to yours, but you’re the famous one! When people hear your name, they’ll put their trust in you,” Butterfly replied.
That’s fair enough. Before Wings of Light was formed, and I was all by myself, I really did get a lot of attention.
“Now that your final exam is over, are you really not going to take on a job even if it is just for fun?”
“Those aren’t fun.”
Those requests really didn’t rouse Sophie’s interest at all.
At that moment, the silver ring on her finger glowed.
Her eyebrows furrowed. It’s been so long since the ring glowed. Here I thought they’d forgotten about my existence! I didn’t think they’ll contact me today.
“What’s the matter?” Butterfly was a little worried when she saw the dumbfounded look on Sophie’s face. It had been a long time since she had seen her boss like that.
“It’s nothing.”
Concurrently, a man was scowling in a skyscraper located at Anglandur.
“The signal was disconnected,” his subordinate informed.
The man slammed his fist on the table. “Continue to contact her!”
Does she think she can run away? Nothing in this world that I fancy can escape my grasp! With a feverish glow in his eyes, he ordered, “Tell her that if she still refuses to come back, Arius will die!”
Do you think you can escape me, Sophie? Once I catch you this time, you’ll never be able to run away again! His fists tightened.
At Jipsdale’s international airport, Arius bade Sophie goodbye. “Remember to take care of yourself after I leave, okay?”
If he had a choice, he wouldn’t want to leave. However, the people in Anglandur had been urging him to return.
“Remember, after your university entrance exam ended, come visit me in Anglandur. Believe me, you’re a genius doctor. If you’re willing to come, you’ll be a legend in the medical world.” He was worried his words wouldn’t get through to her, so he had to emphasize again.
“Arius—” Sophie was sick of listening to the same thing over and over again.
“I promise you, after my university entrance exam ends, I’ll go to your medical association and give you a chance to persuade me.” The only reason she said that was to shut him up.
“That’s a promise, then.”
Even though the broadcast had already called for boarding, he was still rather unwilling to leave.
“Just go already!” Sophie urged.
“Did he look for you, Sophie?” Arius asked because he knew the person looking for her wouldn’t give up that easily.
