The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 472 Drugged Again

Michael arrived quickly, his curiosity piqued by what Sophia might want to say.

Could Mason's earlier plan have worked?

Had Hayden already spoken to Sophia following the deal with Veda?

Sophia reaching out to him now likely meant she wanted answers.

Just as Sophia had anticipated, Michael pushed the door open with a scowl. He stepped inside, his cold gaze sweeping over Sophia before he sat across from her, clearly on guard.

"Why meet here?" he asked.

Sophia looked like she had been drinking.

Her cheeks were flushed, and her eyes were starting to glaze over. When she saw Michael close the door behind him, she smiled faintly and poured herself another drink.

"Nothing much, just wanted a quiet place to talk."

The room had a peculiar scent.

At first, Michael didn't pay it much mind, but he noticed Sophia's outfit a tight red dress, her hair in loose waves, and a sophisticated makeup look with bold red lips.

He had to admit, Sophia was stunning.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have captivated him so completely back then.

Seeing her now, Michael couldn't help but think of the past, but his heart was now calm. The woman before him, with her venomous heart, no longer stirred any desire in him.

Besides, he had never touched her back then, and he certainly wouldn't now.

Michael let out a cold laugh, his sharp gaze fixed on her as he got to the point. "What do you want to talk about?"

Sophia remained vague, taking a deep breath and smiling at Michael. "You don't have to see me as an enemy. I did unforgivable things, but setting all that aside, we still have feelings for each other, don't we?"

Sophia, emboldened by the alcohol, began to get emotional. She leaned closer to Michael, her breath
