As Robert's cool hand touched Sophia, she felt her soul trembling.
She could feel his warm breath on her shoulder, and hear what seemed to be his ragged breathing.
At this moment, an unprecedented nervousness and panic made her almost scream.
She only felt a chill on her body, and the next moment, she fell down.
No.
He couldn't force her to do anything!
"Master Miller..." her voice trembled.
Suddenly, the breath that belonged to Robert disappeared in an instant, and the hand that had been placed on her shoulder was also withdrawn.
She looked over and found that her pajamas had been taken off by him and held in his hand, while she was wrapped in a thin blanket.
"Do you usually wear such revealing clothes in front of Joseph?" Robert's narrow phoenix eyes looked coldly at Sophia, and the white knuckles that held the clothes showed his displeasure towards her.
Sophia was stunned.
She wore revealing clothes? In front of Joseph?
It was a huge misunderstanding.
She had never even held hands with Joseph, how could she do such a thing?
That outfit was not something she wanted to wear, but something Uncle Mark specifically instructed her to wear.
"Master Miller, you..." You've misunderstood me.
"Remember, you are my woman, Robert's woman," Robert's voice was as cold as ice, "put away Joseph's tricks, I don't need you to do that kind of thing."
With that, he left.
"Master Miller..." Sophia hurriedly spoke up, only to see Robert's tall figure leaving, leaving her in a state of confusion lying on the bed.
She didn't want to live with him at all, and she had no intention of staying tonight. How could she have any crooked thoughts?
This is a misunderstanding.
The things that just happened were too fast, and she didn't have time to explain to him. When he came back, she would explain it to him clearly.
She lay alone on the three-meter-wide bed, but did not wait for Robert to return.
As sleepiness overtook her, she could no longer hold on and fell into a deep sleep.
The next morning, the bedroom door was opened, and Robert stood in front of the bed in a sharp suit.Sophia's sleeping posture was not elegant, with her white jade arms wrapped in the quilt, her long legs exposed, her long black hair scattered on the white pillow, and her stunning face was even more breathtaking.
Especially the mark on her snow-white skin reminded him of what had happened between them.
Thinking of that night, he couldn't help but raise his hand to tug at his collar and turn around to leave.
Sophia had already woken up at noon, shocked that she had slept for so long in a strange room.
In the restaurant, she spotted Robert and Anthony sitting at the table at a glance.
The lighting was not good last night, but when she saw Anthony during the day, she found that he looked like an angel who had just descended to the world, delicate and lovely, making it hard for her to look away.
Anthony saw Sophia entering the restaurant,and his big black eyes looked at her timidly.
Sophia smiled gently at Anthony, then saw him quickly hiding himself in the chair.
Robert saw Anthony's move, and his long arms stretched out to hold Anthony in his arms. His handsome face was cold and emotionless, without even a glance at Sophia.
Sophia saw that Robert didn't like her, and she was also helpless in her heart. She really didn't intend to do anything.
But she didn't want to fall out with Robert, especially since he had saved her.
"Master Miller, I'm sorry about last night." She took a deep breath and walked over to sit beside Robert with a smile. She explained, "I never intended to seduce you in that way, I..."
"Don't be so outspoken in front of my son." Robert's cold gaze swept towards Sophia.
Sophia fell silent and quickly looked at Anthony, only to see the child looking at her timidly with his big eyes."Baby..." She smiled sweetly, her voice gentle and coaxing Anthony, "I'm sorry, don't take what I just said to heart."
In case she accidentally taught Robert's son something bad.
If that happened, the five-year contract between them wouldn't need to be fulfilled, and he wouldn't need Joseph to kill her, he would do it himself.
She had to hold onto his thigh tightly and never make a mistake.
Robert took in Sophia's sweet side, her pleasant voice making his eyes sparkle.
As soon as Anthony saw Sophia talking to him, he buried his head in Robert's arms.
"Master Miller, baby is shy," Sophia smiled and looked up at Robert.
After dinner, Anthony was taken away by the butler, leaving only Robert and Sophia in the dining room.
It was too quiet, Sophia spoke first, "Master Miller, your son is so cute."
Robert frowned slightly, "Isn't he your son too?"
"Uh...yes, he's my son," Sophia quickly smiled, "Our son is so cute, I really like him."
Robert's brow relaxed, but his eyes looked deep into Sophia's, "Aren't you afraid of our son?"
"Fear?" Sophia was puzzled. "Why should we be afraid?"
Robert hinted, "He is completely white from head to toe, different from ordinary children."
"Why should he be the same as other children? There are no identical people in the world, and children are the same," Sophia said seriously to Robert. "I'm not afraid of him. He is like a little angel, so sacred and lovely, but..."
"Just what?" Robert asked.
"Just that when I talk to him, he never responds to me," Sophia looked disappointed. "He doesn't like me."Robert's eyes softened when he heard this. "Anthony doesn't dislike you, he just has autism."
Sophia was shocked. She didn't expect such a young child to have autism.
"I thought he was just shy around strangers," she said, then asked, "What disease does your son have that makes his hair completely white from head to toe? And where is his biological mother?
Robert's expression turned cold, and a chill ran through his body.
"You have a lot of questions," he said.
Sophia noticed Robert's displeasure and her face turned pale.
"Master Miller, I'm sorry, I didn't mean anything else. I just care about my son's health. After all, with such advanced medical technology now, can't his illness be treated?" she asked.
Robert's eyes were cold as he stared at Sophia for a while, and the chill around him gradually dissipated.
"My son has albinism," he told Sophia. "This disease is caused by a genetic metabolic disorder that makes him lack melanin in his body, resulting in his whole body being snow-white and different from ordinary people. He developed autism after being mocked by others, and there is no cure for it."
Sophia's eyes were full of heartache when she heard this.
"Master Miller, please rest assured, I will accompany him more," she said.
"Since you are so willing to spend more time with my son..." Robert's eyes flashed with a deep light, and he took out a document and threw it in front of Sophia. "Sign it."
"What is this?" Sophia asked, looking puzzled at the contract in front of her.
Robert leaned back in his chair, looking noble and cold.
He looked directly at Sophia with his deep phoenix eyes, and his thin lips lightly opened: "Yesterday, when I went to the Mu's to pick you up, I found out that you had resigned. So, from today onwards, you will join the Miller Family Group and become my personal secretary."
"Sophia: 'Master Miller, I resigned from Garcia Group and haven't decided on my next job yet.
Besides, you already have an assistant, do you really need me?'
'An assistant and a personal secretary are two different things,' Robert gazed at Sophia.
Sophia was taken aback. This sounded familiar, just like what he said to her on their wedding day.
'Can I not sign?'
'No, you cannot,' Robert replied firmly.
Sophia had no choice but to sign the document, not wanting to offend Robert.
'You didn't even read the document...' Robert's eyes were deep, 'turn to page three.'
Sophia was shocked when she saw what was written.
'Master Miller, you tricked me.'
'It's not me who tricked you, it's your own fault for not reading the document,' Robert corrected Sophia.'I didn't expect someone of your status to trick me,' Sophia was angry but didn't dare to vent her frustration on Robert.
'That's not my fault,' Robert's face was indifferent, 'read it out loud.'
Sophia was unhappy but still read it out loud, 'To be your 24-hour personal secretary, to be a mother to your five-year-old son, and not allowed to live anywhere except for the estate. In case of any accidents, I must inform you.' "
Robert took the file and looked at Sophia's name, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.
"Since Master Miller asked me to sign the document, then please have Master Miller sign this prenuptial agreement," Sophia placed the contract in front of Robert.
Robert looked deeply at Sophia without saying a word, then stood up and left.
Sophia hurriedly followed Robert to the car.
"Master Miller, please sign the contract between us first."He had just tricked her into losing her freedom, and she couldn't give him another chance. Once he signed the contract, she would have some security.
"Be quiet," Robert frowned, looking displeased.
Sophia felt the chill emanating from Robert, and the words on her lips were swallowed back.
She was angry and helpless, but she needed Robert, so she could only endure this handsome man who was always unpredictable.
Inside the Miller Family Group, Robert looked at his assistant David with a meaningful look. "Take care of her affairs."
"Miss Martinez, please follow me," David made a gesture to Sophia.
Sophia followed David and listened to him arrange her work.
She glanced over and saw that her workspace was separated from Robert's by a glass wall, and he could see everything she did with just a glance."Assistant Gu, do I have to work here?" Sophia asked.
"Yes," David replied.
"Can we put a film on the glass so it's not transparent?" Sophia asked, feeling uneasy about working in such close proximity to Robert after their unpleasant encounter at the villa.
"No, we can't," David shook his head. "Is there anything else you need?"
Sophia shook her head and said, "No, thank you, Assistant Gu."
"Don't mention it. If you need anything, just let me know," David said respectfully. "Madam."
The use of "Madam" made Sophia's scalp tingle.
She thought of the day she married Robert and how David was there, but she calmed down.
In the pantry, Sophia sat in a chair drinking coffee when four elegantly dressed women walked in."I wonder where this secretary who was parachuted into President Robert's office came from," one of them said.
"That woman's name is Sophia, and she looks like a fox spirit," another added.
Sophia listened to the mockery and jealousy in the women's words and frowned.
"Fox spirit, bring it on and I'll tear you apart. Trying to steal President Robert, you're asking for trouble."
"Wait for her to go to the bathroom, then lock her in and welcome the CEO's secretary with a bucket of cold water."
"Cold water is too cheap, just push her down the stairs. If something happens in the Miller Family group, with President Robert there, no one will dare to make trouble."
"Which newcomer do you want to teach a lesson?" Sophia asked with a smile, knowingly asking.
The four women finally noticed a woman sitting in the corner.
"Let's teach the new secretary a lesson," one of them spoke up.
"Shh, what are you saying?" Another person quickly spoke up to smooth things over, looking at Sophia in the corner with a warning and a threat, "No matter which department you're from, forget what you just heard. Otherwise, once I find out which department you're from, you won't be able to work at Miller Family again."
The tea room was crowded, so Sophia knew they hadn't thought about her identity.
It was these women who looked beautiful, but were as venomous as snakes.
"Intentionally hurting someone is against the law," she ignored their threats.
"So what?" One person sneered disdainfully, "This is Miller Family."
"At Miller Family, you can just be inhuman, never seen a human before, and you're already hurting and killing people?" Sophia's smile widened on her face. "Is that how your parents taught you?"
"Who do you think you are?" The accused women glared fiercely at Sophia upon hearing her words. "Where did this uncivilized thing come from? How dare you talk about us? Get lost, or we'll make you regret it."
Sophia raised her hand and threw the coffee in her hand directly at the face of the woman who was cursing at her.
"Ah..." The woman screamed in pain from the scalding hot coffee.
"How dare you throw coffee at me." The woman angrily raised her hand towards Sophia. "I am the supervisor. How dare you act so recklessly in front of me? I'll make sure you regret it!"
"Smack, smack!" Sophia took the initiative and slapped the woman who was about to hit her.
"You...how dare you hit me..."
"I hit you because I wanted to. I don't need to choose a day." Sophia's eyes were cold and her aura was strong.
"Who...who are you? How dare you hit someone?" The people around were too scared to act and angrily questioned Sophia.
