Chapter 895 A Talk

I see. Sonia heaved a sigh of relief. And I thought he was a psychic.

A lock of her hair had fallen out of place from the running earlier and she pushed it behind her ear. She looked at Connor and said, “I imagined quite a different person, Mr. Salzburg. I never thought you’d look so friendly. I apologize for looking so surprised.”

She was just being polite, though. Connor’s looks were deceiving, but she knew he was not friendly at all. He was just putting on an act, but thanks to that front, she was not feeling as nervous anymore.

He ignored the little white lie and waved her off with a smile. “It’s nothing. If anyone should apologize here, it’s me. I’m sorry for scaring you, Miss Reed. I spoil my assistant a little too much, so he can be quite arrogant. I’m really sorry for his behavior.”

People like him thought they could do no wrong, and all their apologies or bowing were just for show.

If she did not stop him, he would get back at her someday for this. He might be smiling on the outside, but he would have already thought of Sonia as his enemy on the inside.

“You flatter me, Mr. Salzburg.” Yeah right. I would have let you bow if it weren’t for the fact that you’re a hypocritical snake. The fact that he betrayed Toby’s mother disgusted her despite them not meeting before. Sonia was a woman, so of course she
