"Bernard?" Sophie asked.
How could it be him?
The guy who had been tormenting her for the past three years was actually Bernard?!
She loved him so much, how could he be so cruel to someone who loved him?
She didn't want to believe it, tears welling up in her eyes as she shook her head forcefully, "You didn't do this, did you?!"
Bernard's gaze slowly fell on the mask in his hand, as if even looking at her for a moment longer would disgust him.
Sophie looked up at the cold, unapproachable man in front of her, finally accepting the reality.
"Why are you doing this to me."
Bernard casually stroked the mask, giving her a cold look,
"Don't you get it?"
Sophie wanted to deny it, but she was too smart not to know the reason he treated her like this.
It was all because of what happened three years ago with Joelle in the mall bathroom when they messed with Eleanor.
But still. Sophie couldn't accept it, and she yelled at Bernard,
"To get back at Eleanor, you've already bought out the Ratliff Group!
You demoted my father from chairman to executive director, and I was stripped of my presidency and became a powerless manager.
You've taken everything from me, so why do you still let these people humiliate me every month?!"
She hated chasing after someone she could never have, while Eleanor got him so easily!
And all she did was bully that woman once, and Bernard had been taking revenge on her for three years. Why?!
She let go of her crossed arms and stood up straight in the corner, head held high and chest out, walking up to him. She said,
A enraged Sophie, with her face distorted in anger and heavy makeup, stormed up to him.
Her hand hadn't even touched his shoulder when the tall, burly masked man pushed her away.
Sophie, who was pushed away, trembled all over.
"Bernard, what exactly is so attractive about that worthless woman that you love her so much?!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Caleb slapped her face again and said,
"Sophie, if you insult Ms. Shultz one more time, don't blame me for being rude!"
Already furious, Sophie didn't care about Caleb, or even her own face.
She just stared with tear-filled eyes at the man who was high above, not even willing to speak more to her.
She said, "Bernard, I don't understand, she and I look somewhat alike, but you just can't stand me, why is that?"
