Goodbye, My Wretched Love! By Dolly Molly

Chapter 8

As soon as Sofia caught sight of Brian, she jolted up, but her vision started to blur, and she felt herself on the verge of blacking out.

“Careful!” Brian caught her, giving her a small smile as he held her steady.

Sofia knew that she needed to avoid trouble. With caution, she gently released Brian’s hand and slowly rose from the floor, using the edge of the hospital bed for support.

No woman in New York could resist Brian’s signature smile. Everyone loved it. But Sofia paid no attention. At that moment, Brian’s smile became a little stiff, and he quickly tried to stop Sofia in her tracks.

“The doctor said you have a serious stomach problem, and you need more medical attention. What are you doing? If you need anything, just tell me.”

Sofia was a little surprised. Brian had always been a lazy kind of person who relied on his employees to do everything for him. He seemed overly enthusiastic about her.

She gave him a bitter laugh and kept walking towards the door.

“What is it, Sofia?” Brian huffed. He had never been so ignored by someone, and so he caught Sofia’s wrist.

“I have to go to work, Mr. Sanchez.” Sofia didn’t dare offend

him anymore. He was a demon with a charming smile, just like Finley. And she had already learned her lesson.

Sofia couldn’t help but feel perplexed by the sudden change in their behavior. Initially, they were horrible to her, but now they were putting on this friendly facade, which left Sofia feeling uneasy.

She quickly thanked Brian and gave him a crooked smile. “Thanks for bringing me to the hospital.”

She remembered that it was Brian who had saved her from Mr. Walter and his men. And though she didn’t know his reasons, Sofia thought she should thank him for that too.

As she spoke, Brian didn’t know how to respond. He let go of her arm, took out his wallet, and handed her a black card.

“Here, just use this to pay for things. I also have an empty apartment in Montefiore. You can move there.”

“And I can also help you find another job. Weren’t you in design before? I have a friend who owns a design company, and I can recommend you to him. Your education and talent would make it no problem for you to have a high starting salary.”

Sofia felt as if she were listening to a story from a fantasy world. Those things didn’t quite belong in her reality.

She laughed a bitter sound that reached Brian’s ears and raised her left hand.
