Trapped with the CEO

Several minutes later, Hugh showed up in the meeting room with several reporters following behind him.

Hugh had known about what was going on in the meeting before he even came here. He had thought of what he would do and prepared for it. He walked inside and directly connected the screen to his computer.

The reporters were getting ready to shoot the scene, and they aimed their cameras at Sophia and the screen.

Hugh opened his computer under everyone's confused gaze. They did not know what he was planning to do. He opened the Wechat For PC, and clicked on the chat records between him and Sophia.

Most of them were voice messages, so the others would not know what they had been talking about.

Actually, most of it were sweet messages of concern from Hugh. It was a bit embarrassing, but he continued scrolling through it so he could show these people what truly happened.

Hugh kept going through the messages and finally found out what he was looking for. He then had the page enlarged and people clearly saw the time stamp indicated on the message and it was clear as crystal that the conversation happened half a month ago.

Sophia had sent him two files. Hugh opened one of them, and it displayed twelve pieces of design drafts.

The crowd immediately burst into an uproar.

Hugh closed the file and then kept rolling up through the pages. Then he opened another file which was sent by Sophia just ten days ago. It was a PowerPoint presentation.

The designs in the presentation file were exactly the same as Yuki's. Yet, Yuki said that she had finished the designs just two days ago. Everyone in the meeting room was shocked as they started discussing with each other.

The reporters all took photos of the designs on the screens. Hugh and Sophia have presented a very concrete evidence.

Hugh looked at the crowd and said coldly, "Sophia Lo has already informed me about the concept of her design about a month ago. We all need evidence, don't we? We cannot just blindly believe the mere words that people would say. The truth is in front of you. This chat records indicate that Sophia sent me the design draft and designs many days ago. Sophia is innocent, and these evidences back her up on that."

One of the reporters curiously asked, "Is there any chance that Sophia Lo has stolen Yuki's design before she sent them to you?"

"That's possible. Maybe she has been lying to you since the very beginning." Someone also raised suspicions.

Sophia and Hugh took a glance at each other, and then Sophia smiled and said, "That's easy. We can alway pull up CCTV footage."

Then Jonas acted up on it and ordered the CCTV footage be showed on the screen. Judging by the footage, no one has come into Sophia's office.

Sophia realized that the video footage had been revised since the timeline was not accurate. Then she walked to Y

When her sister ran away from the wedding, Autumn was forced to marry Charles.

His name had been linked to innumerable ladies.

He had different girlfriends for every day of a year.

Autumn had never thought that she would fall in love with him.

e at what he was seeing.

Most of the voice messages lasted almost 1 minute*. It seemed that they were getting closer and closer to each other...

(*TN: The maximum length of the voice message in Wechat is 1 minute.)

They were brought up together, and now they chatted with each other so often. It was hard to believe that there was no romantic involvement between the both of them.

In a private restaurant.

Hugh put the delicious steamed fish in front of Sophia and said, "Have some. It's really tasty, you'll like it."

"You should have some too, Hugh." Sophia's voice was sweet and caring whenever she was around Hugh. Sophia did not hesitate and picked up some fish meat with the chopsticks.

"Eat well!" said Hugh. They were having a small, relaxing talk and the atmosphere was cozy and warm.

Sophia picked up her glass and said, "Hugh, thanks for your help today, I was able to walk out of the room safely. If not for you, I would not be here. Here's a toast for you. Cheers!"

"Oh, don't mention it." Hugh casually replied, but deep down, he was overjoyed. They clinked glasses and sipped some wine.

After they put down their glasses, Sophia looked at Hugh embarrassingly and said, "Hugh, Your father today... I just can't help but be wary of him."

Hugh was very kind to her, sometimes too kind to her. But She could not say no to his kindness. She did not want to be rude to a person who cared for her.

But Jonas was her enemy, and he was Hugh's father. It will spell trouble not just for her, but also for the man in front of her. It must be very hard for Hugh to be caught up in this dilemma.

Hugh did not want to cause her more pressure, and said reassuringly, "Stop thinking that way. Don't worry about me. I always stand by the side of what is fair and just."

After a while, Sophia replied in a soft voice, "You are very kind to me, Hugh. How can I ever repay you?"
