Leo walked into the office with apprehension when he went to work on Monday.
From afar, he had already seen Sophie sitting at his work station, staring fixedly at the entrance.
When she saw Leo, Sophie immediately sprang up from her seat and called out loudly, “Leo!”
A few of the colleagues who had already reached the office immediately turned their heads to their side one after another and looked at them curiously.
Leo quickly trotted over and said in a low pleading voice, “Ms. Sophie, please spare me. If there is anything, let’s go outside and talk about it.”
Sophie snorted and strutted out of the office.
Leo hurriedly threw his bag on the desk and followed her out obediently.
The two of them went to the garden downstairs, and found a place with not many people. Before Leo could sit down, Sophie had already begun to question him, “Vivian blocked me, right?”
“Ah, yes, she was really mad. She didn’t do that on purpose.”
“Nonsense. How was that not on purpose? What’s wrong with you? Why do you believe her again?”
“No, it’s not what you think.” Leo quickly explained, “Everything is a misunderstanding. I had misunderstood her. She didn’t do anything that would hurt me at all.”
After listening to Leo’s explanation, Sophie revealed an extremely frustrated expression on her face.
“Leo, I don’t know how to scold you anymore. D*mn! Why are you so stupid?”
“Am I really stupid?” Leo asked unhappily.
“Yes, you’re stupid. Very stupid. Extremely stupid! If Vivian doesn’t have any secret, I’ll write my name, Sophie, backward!”
“Eihpos, it sounds good!” Leo teased.
Sophie raised her leg, gave him a kick, and said, “I’m telling you something serious. Stop interrupting me!”
“Hey! Why did you kick me?” Leo patted the shoe print on his pants and said, “Look, I can’t get it off. You might as well give me a punch.”
“Okay!” Sophie gave him a punch on the head and said, “Idiot. I really want to knock some sense into you!”
“Do you feel better now? Would that appease you?” Leo asked with a grin.
“Humph, I feel worse. Unless you can become smarter. Tell me everything that had happened in the last two days. I’ll help you analyze them.”
“Sophie, that’s after all, my personal matter. You don’t have to bother about it!”
“Say that again!”
“No, I already said that it was a misunderstanding. Just forget it. Don’t mention it anymore. It’s so frustrating!”
“Do you know why you feel so frustrated? It’s because the knot in your heart hasn’t been untied yet. Leo, if you plan to continue to deceive yourself, then I really won’t bother you anymore. But don’t come and complain to me if you have really been betrayed in the future.”
“Betrayed? Would things get so serious?” Leo’s tone began to become a little hesitant.
“Oh god, Leo. Are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? Do you still remember that old saying? The onlookers see most of the game. Tell me everything clearly, and let me analyze it for you. Don’t let her way with you.”
After hesitating for a moment, Leo eventually still decided to tell her everything.
At the beginning, he didn’t tell her everything in detail. However, in the end, he could only tell her everything clearly as he couldn’t bear Sophie’s thorough questioning.
Sophie frowned and thought for a while before saying to Leo, “It seems that there are a lot of questionable points in this matter. There are a lot of things that cannot be explained clearly. I am particularly puzzled about one thing. Why does she want to make everything so complicated?”
“What questionable points? Why can’t I find any of it?”
Sophie rolled her eyes at him and sneered, “It’s because you can only see Vivian in your eyes. Tell me, what else can you still see?”
“Since you have found them, then tell me about it. You don’t have to scoff at me like that!” Leo grumbled.
“Alright, I’ll tell you where the problems are now. But let me ask you a question first. You have checked through her phone, right?”
“Yes, I have checked through it, but I didn’t find any problems!” Leo replied honestly.
“Is she using a dual-SIM card phone?”
“She only has one activated phone number, and I’m sure of that!”
“Are you sure? Humph, don’t say it so confidently. Don’t you feel strange at all?” Sophie suddenly asked.
“To be honest, I also feel that something is wrong, but I couldn’t find any problem with her call history.” Leo said uncertainly.
“Are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid? Don’t you understand? No problem is exactly the problem. Her phone records are so clean. What does that mean to you?” Sophie reminded him.
“You mean she deleted part of the call history?”
“Well, this’s probably the case. Then the question comes. If there is really nothing between her and Tommy and those people are really her family members. Why does she need to delete her call history?”
Leo’s face darkened when he heard that. He already felt that something was wrong when he was looking through Vivian’s phone at that time, but he didn’t think of this at all.
However, he immediately noticed the problem after Sophie brought it up now.
What Sophie said was right. Since she had a clear conscience, and since they were her family, why should she erase all traces of contact between them? This doesn’t seem logical at all!
“There is a way for us to find all the call history!” Sophie said confidently.
“How?”
“We can go and check her phone bill record. She can only delete the call history on her phone, but not the record in the billing system. I am in charge of the Samburg’s system project, so I know their password for their remote maintenance.”
The two of them hurried back to the office and went to Leo’s work station together.
After opening the remote maintenance webpage, Sophie entered the administrator password and called up Vivian’s billing records for the last three months. Then, she started to check one by one with Leo.
Both of them felt a little strange as they looked through them.
This billing record was almost the same as the call history he saw on Vivian’s phone. Leo can even conclude that the two records were exactly the same.
This meant that Vivian didn’t delete her call log, nor did she hide anything.
Leo was starting to feel a little bored. Just when he was about to close the webpage, Sophie suddenly stretched out her arm to stop him.
“Wait, something is not right. Yes, I know what’s wrong. There is a problem with this bill record!”
“What’s the problem?” Leo asked with a low chuckle, “I think there is something wrong with your mind. Whatever you see have a problem.”
“Leo, all her family members are not locals, right?”
“Yes, she is from Zwickau, and all her family members are also from Zwickau. What’s wrong?”
Sophie pointed to the screen and said, “Look! That is the problem. Can you find any Zwickau’s number in this bill record?”
Leo froze for a moment before he took a look at the computer screen again. Sure enough, all the phone numbers shown on the bill records were local numbers. Even if there were a few foreign numbers, they were also not Zwickau’s numbers.
“Do you know where is the problem is now?” Sophie asked.
Leo nodded and said unhappily, “It’s impossible that they are not contacting each other by phone. I don’t think they would take the trouble to change all their phone numbers to local numbers when they came here to look for their daughter. There is some problem with this billing record.”
“Oh gosh. You are so stupid! There is no problem with this billing record. No matter how capable Vivian is, she can’t delete the records in the system. You still can’t figure out where the problem is?”
“Do you mean that she has another cell phone?” Leo asked uncertainly.
Sophie nodded vigorously and said with certainty, “I’m sure that she has another cell phone. They contacted each other with another phone number. Do you still believe that there is nothing between her and Tommy?”
“This doesn’t really mean anything as well. Maybe...” Leo couldn’t continue anymore.
“Isn’t this enough? She has another cell phone, which she used to contact the other man behind her husband’s back. Do you still think that there is no problem?”
Sophie gave his shoulder a pat and said, “Even if it can’t prove that she is having an affair with another man, but it is certain that she is hiding some dirty little secrets. At least, there is a secret that she can’t let you know about.”
“What should I do about this? If I go and ask her directly, she would certainly not tell me the truth,” Leo was starting to feel a little annoyed and slammed his palm on the table.
“What happened, Leo? Who made you so angry?” Mr. Andrew’s voice came from behind him.
“Nothing. We are just joking around with each other!” Sophie rushed to answer his question.
Mr. Andrew chatted with Sophie briefly before waving at Leo and said, “Leo, come to my office for a while. I’ve something to tell you.”
After saying that, Mr. Andrew turned around and went back to his office, and Leo muttered a little worriedly, “He looks so serious. I’m afraid that it’s not something good!”
“Quickly go!” Sophie said with a grin, “It’s a good thing. You’re going to be promoted!”
“Nonsense. Why am I suddenly promoted for no reason? I don’t have that kind of luck!” Leo said with a self-deprecating smile.
“It’s true, Leo. Don’t doubt yourself. I always believe that you can do it!”
Leo still didn’t believe in her words. He only went to Mr. Andrew’s office after playing around with Sophie for a while.
He entered the room after knocking on the door. Mr. Andrew pointed to the chair opposite him and said with a pleasant smile, “Leo, please have a seat!”
“Boss, why are you looking for me?” Leo asked politely.
Mr. Andrew stood up, walked behind his desk and went to close the door first. Then, he pulled over a chair and sat next to Leo.
“Leo, I have good news for you.”
Leo was excited when he heard that. Could it be that what Sophie said was true? Is he really going to get promoted?
He continued to listen to what Mr. Andrew had to say, “After the company’s formal assessment, the HR team felt that your capabilities and performance at work are extremely outstanding. The company management has decided to promote you to be the business consulting director and deputy general manager of Delaney Group’s business department.”
Upon saying this, he stretched out his hand and patted Leo’s shoulder and said to him cheerily, “After the official notice comes out, this office will belong to you. Leo, let me congratulate you in advance!”
Leo was in a daze after hearing his words. He couldn’t digest this piece of news for a moment.
He didn’t expect that he was really promoted just like what Sophie told him.
There was really too sudden. Why didn’t he hear any news about it before this? He wasn’t prepared for this at all. Also, how did Sophie know about this news?
He only came back to his senses when he heard Mr. Andrew congratulating him, and hurriedly asked, “Boss, then how about you? Where are you going?”
