Chereads / His only Cure / Chapter 21 - Chapter 21

Chapter 21 - Chapter 21

Sophie went to bed ready for tomorrow's fight. She woke up at exactly five o'clock. She quickly got up and got ready for work.

This time, however, she spent much more time on her makeup, which made her look incredibly sexy. She put on a tight, short dress, ate a quick breakfast and walked confidently to the office. She assigned today's tasks and emailed everyone before seven.

And then?

Then she went to the elevator and took it to the top floor of Darell's apartment. She punch the code she had learned earlier and entered as if at home, going straight to her boss's bedroom. In bed, she found the blonde beauty sleeping practically naked under his sheets. 

"Get up, honey, it's time for you. Dreams do not come true. The prince won't come" She called sweetly to the frightened woman. She covered herself with the sheets and looked in disbelief at Sofie standing next to the bed.

"Who are you? Why did you come in here? Don't know who this apartment belongs to?" She started threatening her, glaring at her.

"That's why I'm here, honey. I came to ask you out elegantly before anyone sees what a joke you are making of yourself" Sophie crossed her arms under her perfect breasts.

"What? Do you know who I am?!" The woman was furious, getting up from the bed.

"Someone insignificant" Sophie walked close to the woman, looking down at her. "Listen... lady, I don't know what his mother promised you, but none of it will come to fruition. Darell already has me and is not going to change that, so once again I politely ask you to leave our apartment before I call security and they will take you out as you are standing" She threatened, glaring at her menacingly. 

"His mother..." 

"His mother, his mother" She interrupted. "His mother has nothing to say here. I won't let her put another empty chick in his bed who knows nothing about life and lives off her daddy's money" Sophie said, making the woman turn red with anger.

"You'll regret this" She hissed and went to get dressed quickly. 

"Believe me, I'm doing you a favor with this. I doubt you'd rather be humiliated by Darell in front of everyone. Think how the others ended after his mother sent them to him"

Sophie had no idea how it ended, but when the woman heard it, she stopped in her tracks. 

"Exactly" She continued seeing the reaction. Darell won't change me for anyone else and you'll be treated like some pushy chick trying to ruin someone's relationship. The last thing I would do is agree to stay in a stranger's apartment because his mom said it was a good idea. Can't you do better than force yourself into someone's bed?"

The woman looked menacingly at Sophie, locking herself in the bathroom. After a while, she came out dressed, passing her and heading straight to the exit.

"I have plenty to choose from anyway" She muttered, leaving the apartment.

"That's what I was afraid of" Sophie sighed heavily, knowing that the second obstacle wouldn't be so easy.

Before she even came back downstairs, she changed the code on Darell's lock. For a while, it was the best idea to keep away any more uninvited guests. She went straight to her boss's office, knowing that his mother would be there soon.

Noah stood at his desk with his mouth slightly open as he saw Sophie enter his boss's office. A moment later, he followed her into the office with today's load of documents, never taking his eyes off the woman.

"You're about to burn a hole in my head. What is it about?" She asked without taking her eyes off the papers.

"You look... different" He hesitated, not wanting to offend her.

"My combat outfit. We will not wait patiently for the 'problems' to go away on their own. We'll help them a little with this" Sophie glanced at him from under the paper. The man's eyes immediately lit up. He secretly hoped that the woman would be able to help her boss come back much sooner.

"And I got rid of the intruder from Darell's apartment. It behooves him to disinfect his apartment after her visit. Later I will send you a new code, which you must not reveal under any circumstances" She informed the surprised assistant.

"Can I inform my boss about this?"

"Better to wait and see how today goes"

Noah nodded and left the office, letting Sophie focus on her work. While she was engrossed in her work, Noah quietly peeked through the door and stole a photo of her. When the boss calls to ask about the next day's report, he better have all the documentation from it.

Before noon, Darell's furious mother burst into the office. Seeing the beauty sitting in her son's office, she stopped for a moment, not recognizing the woman. 

"Hello, Mrs. Pilsar" She nodded slightly, without lifting her head from the papers. 

"It's you?" The surprised woman looked at Sophie before she recovered and remembered why she came here.

"How dare you get rid of the woman I chose for my son?!" She shouted furiously. "Do you think I will let you use my son like that? You're definitely thinking about taking over his company and getting rid of him!" She waved her hands menacingly, getting more and more nervous when she saw no reaction from Sophie. "I knew that your presence here would not bring anything good... Get out of here and don't come back. You're dismissed" She ordered firmly, pointing at the door.

There was an awkward silence. Darell's mother stood there, breathing heavily with anger, and Sophie was still looking through the documents. 

"I don't believe it. I just don't believe it! How can you behave like that! Didn't you hear what I said?! Get out of here!" She shouted again. Sophie calmly put the papers aside and looked at the woman, red with anger.

"Is this your company? Did you hire me? Were you the one who gave me my assigned job? Do you have any power over me? Can you do something to get me out of here?" Sophie crossed her legs and supported her head with her hand. "Do you know what the answer to all these questions is?" She asked her questions with stoic calm.

"You think I'm not capable?!" She stamped her heel threateningly.

"Yes. That's what I think" Sophie agreed honestly.

"Ha! This boldness!" 

"Exactly... boldness" Sophie pointed upwards as if she had an idea. "Have you noticed that you are pushing your expensive shoes into your son's life just to harm him? He built this company on his own, without your help. He found potential partners and made the company grow to this size through his work, without your help. He has acquired the best, competent employees who are willing to jump into the fire for him, without your help. He is where he is because of his work and he has it all because of himself and guess what? He did it without your help" She stood up and leaned against the front of Darell's desk. "All you're doing now is embarrassing yourself by trying to suck up to some highly placed people, pushing more empty women into your son's bed, thus ruining his life. I'll tell you something. Such good advice from the younger generation"

She approached Darell's mother, who looked like she was about to kill. "If you weren't by his side, supporting him and his decisions, comforting him when things were hard, didn't believe in him and his visions but you felt somehow obliged to show him your motherly love in this strange way... you can stop. Because I will do it right. And finally understand, that he won't listen to you and your pathetic ideas because I won't let you do that" She looked at the woman with a victorious smile, knowing full well how this would end.

A second later, the older woman's hand landed on Sophie's cheek, scratching it until it bled. However, the smile did not disappear from her face. 

"Assault on a stranger at her place of work... " Sophie looked pointedly at the corner of the ceiling where the camera was placed. "With such evidence, I will try to obtain a restraining order. It so happens that I know a very good prosecutor who cannot be bribed in any way possible. And the best part is that I work in the same place as your children... I sleep in the same building as your children... What's the conclusion? You just got banned from entering this company and the employees' apartment. Looks like you won't be seeing them any time soon" Sophie put on a much more menacing expression. "Because I'm not going to leave Darell's side for one step… or a second. The same goes for Diana. So... Only of their own free will, will they be able to meet you. I advise you to rethink your actions and if you really care about their well-being, you will let them make their own decisions and support them as you should"

Once again, the woman's hand landed on Sophie's cheek. The girl licked the inside of her cheek, feeling the blood. A menacing smile appeared on her face.

"Excellent" 

"You will regret it!" After shouting these words, Darell's mother left her son's office in a hurry, passing the terrified Noah.
