Chapter 156 Conn didn't know what Sophie would do to handle him.
She said, "Your first option, stay at the company, but you'll never get another role to play." Corin looked genuinely shocked.
Sophie continued slowly. "Your second option, switch to Burke International's entertainment division. I'll write you a recommendation letter."

When Reece did not respond, Sophie curiously asked, "Don't you have a press appointment today? What brings you here?" "I heard Corin was causing trouble, so..." Reece trailed off.
After spending the last few days together, Sophie had realized that Reece was a man of few words.
Reading Reece's mind, Sophie smiled, "Don't worry, I'm fine.7 After a moment, Reece said, "Then I'll get back to work." Sophie nodded. Once Reece left, she looked at the pile of documents on her desk, her lips curving slightly upward.
