Chapter 400

Sophia gave the guard a puzzled look: "When did the company have that rule?"

"Just at the end of last month," the security guard replied, "It was a direct order from Mr. Crawley."

Sophia's confusion deepened. She couldn't fathom why checking the surveillance would necessitate such a serious rule.

She thanked the security guard and headed back to her office.

Don happened to come out of his office and saw Sophia walking in with a serious expression. He called out to her, "What's wrong?"

Sophia shook her head slightly: "It's nothing."

She started to walk past Don but then stopped midway.

Turning to Don, she looked hesitant: "Mr. Dempsey, I need to check the surveillance footage for something, but the guard said I need written permission from Brandon, and he's out of town on a business trip right now. Could you maybe have a word with the guard and let me have a look?"

Don found it strange: "Why don't you just give Brandon a call? If he gives the word over the phone, which guard would dare to stop you?"

A touch of embarrassment colored Sophia's face. "I don't want him to know."

If Brandon found out she was going to check the surveillance, he would watch it too. She didn't want to expose Daniel's disdainful way of treating Theresa in the footage.

Sophia didn't want to cause any rift between father and son or put him in a difficult position.
