This Time, I Will Get My Divorce, Mr

Chapter 1140 Such a Ridiculous Way to Apologize

Only did Grayson look at Sonia when he heard her words. Then, he looked at the teacup in front of him, but he then

frowned as he looked at the tea inside it. “What variety of tea is this?” he asked.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Lore. I won’t serve you any premium tea. This is just a normal cup of green tea.” Sonia crossed

her legs and smiled.

When Grayson heard her words, he had a grim expression. “A normal cup of green tea? Is this how Paradigm Co.

treats their guests?”

While listening to his words, Sonia sipped her tea and said faintly, “I can’t do anything about this. My company is

small, and I can’t even change the furniture that I have been using for twenty years. What makes you think I can

serve you premium tea? A normal cup of tea is all I can do for you, so bear with it. After all, I still see you as a

guest. Otherwise, I would’ve simply handed you a cup of water.” As she spoke, she emphasized the twenty years of

furnishing.

Although Grayson didn’t have any outstanding abilities in business, he was not a fool. When he heard her words, he

knew that the receptionist had told her about what he said in the elevator. Thus, Sonia was using this as a chance to

treat him offhandedly by serving him an average cup of tea. With that thought in mind, he was fuming in anger.

“Do you even serve just water?” Grayson squinted his eyes at her. “Aren’t you Toby’s girlfriend? Considering the

years that you have been with him, I don’t believe that you haven’t taken anything from him. Does he dislike you? Is

that why he isn’t even willing to buy you premium tea brands? That’s probably why your company only has this kind

of cheap stuff.”

Sonia didn’t get mad and was still grinning when she heard his remarks. “You must have underestimated me, Mr.

Lore. Toby did give me a lot of good stuff, including premium tea. However, I don’t want to serve it to you. I only

serve good tea to people who are polite and respectful, not some arrogant man like you. People like you should only

be accommodated with regular tea. It’s even ridiculous that you said Toby dislikes me. If so, he wouldn’t have

disassociated himself from the Lore Family. Don’t you think so?”

“You…” Grayson was furious at her words that he couldn’t even make out a sentence.

According to her words, she’s implying that my family isn’t worth drinking premium tea and can only be served

cheap, regular tea. Not only that, she’s also boasting about the fact that Toby chose her over my family. This is

just… just… As Grayson thought about it, he was breathing heavily from frustration. At that moment, he couldn’t

think of anything to criticize Sonia.

Seeing that he was furious to this point, Sonia furrowed her eyebrows as she was afraid he wouldn’t be able to

handle his emotions. She restrained herself and put down the cup, asking coldly, “Alright, Mr. Lore. I was only joking,

so please excuse me for it. After all, you do know that we youngsters like to joke about everything. I’m sure you

don’t mind it, do you?” She smiled at him.

When he heard her words, Grayson was even more furious. There was nothing else he could say since she had put

it that way. He couldn’t possibly say that he didn’t think it was a joke, for it would make him seem like a killjoy.

However, he couldn’t let himself agree with her words either as he would need to endure it. Moreover, he knew

that she was not joking. She was clearly provoking him and being boastful about it!

When Sonia saw Grayson shaking from anger, she sighed inwardly. To think that such an impatient man is the boss

of a company. He is even worse than a newbie like me.

A hint of mockery flashed across her eyes as she thought about it. “Enough with all the talking now, Mr. Lore. Why

don’t we talk about business? If I remember clearly, there aren’t any intersections between your family and me. Is

there a reason for your visit today?” she asked.

As Grayson’s assistant soothed him, he slowly calmed down and regained his composure, but he still had a grim

expression. He looked at her coldly and said, “I don’t think we have to beat around the bushes, Sonia. I believe that

you know why I am here.”

“I’m sorry, but I don’t have a clue. Why don’t you just say it? I’m not fond of guessing things.” Sonia smiled,

implying that she wanted him to say for himself rather than admit she knew what exactly happened.

When Grayson heard it, he was furious as he didn’t expect her to be such a cunning person.

He was here to apologize to her, but he didn’t want to take the initiative and say it. After all, he would not be in

control of the situation if he were to say it first. Initially, he was planning to let Sonia ask about it. That way, it would

be easier for him to express his words. However, his plan was now in vain since Sonia insisted on him saying it. If it

weren’t for Harry’s orders, Grayson believed he would have just left on the spot. After all, he had never been in

such a situation with any youngsters other than Toby.

Seeing how Grayson’s expression changed, Sonia shrugged and said, “Since you are not going to say anything, I

guess this will be the end of our conversation. You can always come to me when you’ve carefully thought about

what you want to say. However, I can’t promise that I will still have the time for you.”

As soon as she finished her words, she stood up and shouted in the direction of the door. “Security, take him away!”

“Wait!” Grayson didn’t expect her to kick him out without saying anything. He quickly stood up and stopped her.

“There’s no need to kick me out now, Miss Reed. I’ll say it, okay?”

When Sonia heard his words, a glint flashed across her eyes as she smiled. “I’m listening, Mr. Lore. Please have a

seat.” Then, she motioned for him to have a seat.

“I didn’t expect you to be such a difficult person, Miss Reed.” He looked at her gloomily as he sat down.

Sonia flipped her hair and sat back down. “You flatter me, Mr. Lore. We should always have some tricks up our

sleeves when doing business, right? Now, please begin your speech, Mr. Lore. I’ll give you thirty minutes to say it,

for I’m going to have lunch afterward.” She looked at her watch and motioned him to start talking.

However, her gesture was as if she was signaling him to start putting on a show rather than speaking. She is

treating me like a clown! he thought.

Although Grayson was trembling in rage, he couldn’t do anything. So, he took a deep breath to surpass his anger

and said slowly, “Miss Reed, I’m here to apologize to you. I’m sorry that my daughter, Lynette, caused you trouble

yesterday. As such, I’m sorry for not educating her well enough. Please excuse her for her behavior, Miss Reed.”

The smile on Sonia’s face turned into a sneer as she heard his words. “You are here to apologize on Lynette’s

behalf,” she said.

“Yes,” he replied.

Then, Sonia shifted in her seat. Her sneer was even more visible, and her eyes were icy cold as she spoke.

“However, with all due respect, this is the first time I have seen such an apology.”

As Grayson heard her words, the expression on his face stiffened. “What do you mean by this, Miss Reed?”

“Isn’t it obvious?” Sonia shrugged. “When people apologize, they bring the instigator over and some apology gifts.

Not only that, they are typically well-mannered as they bow and ask for forgiveness. However, I don’t see that in

you, Mr. Lore.”
