Betrayed by Four: Reborn, Their Rival Mafia Lord Became My Husband - Chapter 454: Chapter 454

Hurley wanted to find Sophie now and couldn't wait.
However, he knew that Sophie would be upset if he went to the clothing department now, so he could only wait patiently.
At the end of the day, the employees left work one after another, especially in the clothing department. Everyone left early.
Anyway, this person was not a director, so they naturally wouldn't fawn around her.
Hurley knew that the clothing department was empty, so he made the move to go downstairs.
The lights in other offices were turned off, except for Sophie's office.
Hurley quietly walked over. Through the glass, he saw Sophie, who was still busy.
There were many, many papers in front of Sophie. They were the design drafts of Walton Corporation's clothing department over the past few years. She had been in the office today, looking at the materials of Walton Corporation's clothing department over the years. There were too many, and Sophie only had a rough idea. After a quick glance, she saw the problems in the clothing department at Walton Corporation over the years.
Hurley didn't go in to disturb her. He just watched Sophie from outside for a long time.
When Sophie was serious, she had another kind of charm. She focused on flipping through the things in her hand and then looked up at the manuscript on the computer.
After a while, Sophie stretched her back and prepared to pour a glass of water.
As soon as she stood up, she saw the man outside the glass, who had been standing there for an unknown amount of time.
Sophie opened the door and asked, "Hurley?"
"When did you come?"
Hurley snapped back to reality and walked towards Sophie, "I see you're too busy, so I didn't want to disturb you. What do you want to drink?"
"I plan to go get a glass of water."
"Let me make you a cup of tea." Hurley took the cup from Sophie's hand.
"Okay, thank you, Mr. Walton." Sophie gladly accepted.
Hurley brewed a cup of scented tea for Sophie and brought it to her office. Seeing that there were still so many things in front of her, he didn't know when she would be able to finish them.
He knocked on her desk and said, "It's time to get off work, Miss Hades."
"I have to finish reading all of this today, so you should go back first."
When Sophie spoke, her hand movements didn't stop.
"Why are you busier than me?" Hurley invited Sophie to work in the company, originally hoping to have more contact with her, but they ended up not seeing each other all day, not to mention Sophie being so busy.
The clothing department was usually not so busy. Since it was not the company's main business, Hurley did not expect the clothing department to make much money for the company.
"It's good that you came to the company, but you don't have to bring any benefits to the company."
Sophie looked up at the man standing beside her.
That was because there was a light above Hurley's head as if his body was plated with gold, the light was dazzling.
"Mr. Walton, you spent so much money to hire me, but you don't expect the department to make a profit?"
Hurley was very generous and gave her shares directly.
Anyway, when Hurley offered money, Sophie accepted it.
"Mr. Walton, since you're so rich, why don't you give me some?" Sophie joked.
"Okay." Hurley couldn't ask for more. He had so much money, but he didn't have a wife to spend it on, so he usually didn't buy anything himself.
Saying that, Hurley began transferring money to Sophie.
The next second, Sophie's phone beeped. Seeing the string of zeros, Sophie was surprised, "Hurley, what are you doing? I was just joking, I don't lack money."
Of course, Hurley knew that Sophie was not short of money. He just liked to give Sophie money to trap her into feeling indebted to him.
Maybe she would get used to his wealth and might stop looking at other men from then on.
"I'm afraid that our Miss Hades will run away. So, I should pay some salary in advance."
Sophie returned the money to Hurley, "Aren't you afraid that I'll take my salary and run away?"
Hurley deliberately said, "You're already pregnant with my child, why would you want to run away?"
At the mention of this, Sophie's face instantly heated up. How did all of these reach Hurley's ears?
"That's all their nonsense, I don't know where it came from."
When Sophie went halfway to the restroom, she heard those people talking outside.
That kind of rumor really spread one version after another and was getting more and more outrageous.
When Sophie moved closer, those people hurriedly left, and she didn't even have the chance to explain.
Originally, those people's rumors were a bit outrageous, but who knew that even Hurley knew about it? Now that Hurley mentioned it to Sophie, Sophie didn't know how to answer.
"Yeah, but how did they hear it? Didn't it come from your mouth?"
"Absurd, did you mishear? That's a fake gossip. I just said that I threatened the company, but who knew that those people would think that I was pregnant and threatened you with the child."
Such a melodramatic plot. How could they think of it?
Hurley casually transferred the money back, and he leaned closer, deliberately teasing, "Then consider this money from me as support for the child."
Sophie's heart trembled. Hurley was talking nonsense about raising a child.
She pushed Hurley away, "I won't tell you anymore. I have to continue working. Otherwise, you should go back first."
If the conversation continued, Hurley might say something.
"I still have some work, so I happen to be working with you here."
"What are you doing working here?" There is nothing here."
Hurley just made a phone call, and soon, Chris brought a laptop to Hurley.
Hurley also asked Chris to pack some food. Looking at Sophie's concentration, they probably wouldn't be able to leave for a while.
Sophie continued to look at the papers, and Hurley also worked for a while. Soon, the food came. Hurley opened it and called Sophie to eat first.
While saying, "Okay, I'll be right over," Sophie didn't let go of the work she was doing.
"Who told me that I shouldn't finish my work and urged me to rest?"
How could she advise him on that and forget about it?
"I'll finish reading this later." Sophie still didn't put down her work.
Hurley was not rushing Sophie, but from the moment he came downstairs, Sophie could be said to have been working when she should have been relaxing after work hours.
He didn't call Sophie over just to get Sophie to work.
Sophie finally finished her work and came over to eat, but she ate very fast.
Hurley couldn't help but say, "Eat slowly, no one will share it with you."
"The food from this restaurant tastes good." Sophie said.
Perhaps it was because she was hungry, but everything tasted particularly delicious.
However, Hurley noticed it and asked, "Did you not eat anything at lunch?"
Sophie was indeed busy and forgot, "I didn't bother."
At noon, Hurley did not go find Sophie. Instead, he had someone bring food to Sophie. Sophie originally went to the storage in the department, but when she went to get it, she suddenly thought of a design draft. She went back to her office to look at it, and then went back to get it. By then, her meal was already in the trash can.
Sophie didn't ask questions about it but returned to work.
Hurley figured out that Sophie was also a workaholic. When she was researching the antidote those days, Sophie could go on days without rest.
