Chapter 1122 A Request
The smile on Shirley's face instantly froze the moment she saw the woman standing outside.
"How... is it you?"
She never expected that Sofia would actually find her here. Anxiety was rushing through her blood.
That incident, in which Sofia had beaten her at First Meeting, cast a pall of shadow over her.
Sofia noticed Shirley's nervousness and calmly said, "Relax. I'm not here for a fight today."
She handed some gift boxes to Shirley. "These are for you as an apology for my rudeness. I hope you
can forgive me."
Shirley stared blankly at the four gift boxes in Sofia's hand. Based on the exquisite packaging, they
were obviously expensive.

Although it seemed sincere, Shirley couldn't believe it. While she was silent, Sofia softly asked, "Can I
come in?"
Shirley instinctively shook her head. "No—"
She wanted to refuse, but Sofia pointed to the surveillance cameras in the corridor. "There are
surveillance cameras here. If I do anything to you, Skye will find out right away. Isn't that right?"
Shirley felt relieved at that. She took a step back and opened the door for Sofia. Sofia walked into the
living room, taking in the small place. The decoration was simple yet wholesome, especially at the
entrance. There was a pair of men's slippers, indicating that Skyler probably frequented the place.
During the whole month, she asked her father to make some arrangements for the factory Skyler was
in charge of. He had been busy in the other province, so he hardly had the time to return home.
Sofia's gaze swept over the pair of men's slippers. An inexplicable pain surged in her heart.
Why does Skyler still love her? She doesn't look pretty anymore! Just which part of her is better than
me?
She couldn't understand.
"Please, have a seat," Shirley said nervously.
Sofia put her things down and sat on the sofa. Treated her as a guest, Shirley poured a cup of tea and
placed it in front of Sofia. "Miss Green, is there anything I can help you with? I have something to do
later, so I don't have much time."
There was actually nothing to do later, but Shirley didn't want Sofia to stay longer. Sofia glanced at
Shirley and lowered her head slowly. She clasped her hands together as her nails were scratching on
each other's surfaces. "I came here today to ask for your help."

Shirley became even more confused. "Miss Green, you thought highly of me. If you can't do it, I
definitely can't either."
"No, you can." Sofia shook her head and suddenly raised her gaze, revealing her teary eyes.
Shirley couldn't make the head or tail of those eyes. After a few seconds of silence, she tentatively
asked, "Are you talking about Sky?"
Besides Skyler, she didn't seem to have anything that could help Sofia.
"Shirley, I know you are gentle and kind-hearted. You're a girl who understands others well. But... But I
feel so sorry for you when I see you like this." Sofia's eyes reddened, shedding the fierce aura she
used to have to create an approachable facade.
Shirley stared at Sofia, confused. The more she listened to Sofie, the more confused she became. She
couldn't guess what Sofia wanted to say.
Tears overflowed from Sofia's eyes, sliding down her cheeks and falling to the ground.
