Chapter 211: Hating to See Him in Pain

(God’s POV)

Sophia brought the documents to the database and handed them to the manager. The sterile

fluorescent lights cast harsh shadows across the filing room as she approached the

reception desk.

The manager looked up from his computer screen, his brow furrowing in confusion. “Isn’t this supposed to be delivered by Research Technician Irene?”

Sophia maintained her composed expression, though her heart raced beneath the surface.

“Research Technician Irene had other urgent matters to attend to. He asked me to deliver

these on his behalf.”

The manager nodded slowly, accepting the explanation without further question. He

stamped the documents with practiced efficiency.

“Is Professor Andrew Kelly available today?” Sophia inquired casually, her fingers drumming

against the counter.

“Professor Kelly left for a conference yesterday,” the manager replied. “He won’t be back for a

couple of days.”

Perfect. Sophia’s lips curved into a satisfied smile. The timing couldn’t have been better for

her plans.

She glanced around the busy database office, watching staff members hurrying between filing cabinets and computer terminals. A cold smile played on her lips as she observed their

oblivious dedication to their work.

None of them suspected what she had just accomplished. The copied research data was

already safely in her possession.

With deliberate calm, she turned and left the database, her footsteps echoing down the

empty corridor.
