Chapter 580 What's the Relationship with Sarah?
In the past, Alex's feelings were clear to Sarah, and she spoke openly with him. She truly appreciated him, valued him, and considered him her most important friend. But there could never be more than that.
Now, she was unsure.
Sarah dryly laughed twice and then said seriously, "Sophia, if you have any grievances in your heart, just tell me. I promise you, from today on, I will try my best not to see Alex again and will never meet him alone."
Sofia Harris laughed at her, "What nonsense are you talking about? You two have been friends for so many years. How could you cut off contact because of this? I also don't blindly take sides. You are my best friend, Sarah, and we will never have any barriers between us because of a man, right?"
Looking at Sofia Harris's serious expression, Sarah smiled, moved, and took her hand initiative. "Of course, I promise you that."
After she finished speaking, she raised her chin a bit. "But don't underestimate yourself. Actually, I can tell that Alex likes you. When I saw him this afternoon, I teased him a bit, and he blushed."
Sofia Harris raised her eyebrows, "Really?"
"Why would I lie to you?"
Sarah knew that Sofia Harris had deep feelings for Alex, and she was genuinely happy for them to be together.
Sofia Harris looked up at the dazzling glass chandelier and confided in her best friend, "Actually, being with him... it may depend on my scheming. That time, we drank alcohol, and then... things progressed naturally."
Saying this, her expression dimmed again, "Actually, I was the one who took the initiative. I wasn't that drunk, but when I woke up the next day, he thought he had forced me, so he wanted to take responsibility for me."
In other words, if it wasn't for this incident, they wouldn't be together.
Sofia Harris even felt that Alex might not actually like her; he was just burdened by moral obligations and felt responsible because they had been intimate.
But if there were no feelings involved, was this kind of responsibility what she wanted?
This assumption made Sofia Harris feel depressed, and she didn't want to think about it further.
Sarah sighed and gently pinched Sofia Harris's face. "Don't worry, things will get better. We're both so lovable. If he can resist falling for you, there's definitely something wrong with his eyes. You can take him for cataract surgery then."
"Okay." Sofia Harris smiled. "Let's go back. They're probably getting anxious."
In the private room, the three of them waited for them to come back for a long time and started talking.
Isabella Moore's gaze shifted over to Alex sitting across from her, and she suddenly asked, "I wonder where you are at this high point?"
As Benjaminraised the issue, he crossed his hands on the table, and his fingers twitched subtly.
Alex replied casually, "Have you two heard of the company MT? I work there."
"Of course we have," Isabella Moore was somewhat surprised and glanced at Benjamin. "MT is a prestigious multinational company. You must be very capable in your job."
Alex smiled slightly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
He looked at Benjamin, who had been silent the whole time. Benjamin's reserved demeanor made him seem unapproachable, just like Antonio used to be.
But Alex knew that Antonio, privately, had a childish, gentle, and playful side when facing his loved ones. This shining Benjamin in front of him didn't.
If possible, he hoped Sarah could stay away from this man, but he would rather pray for Sarah. He hoped this man had truly forgotten about her, the man who used to love her dearly.
Otherwise, it would be too pitiful.
Alex's eyes flickered with curiosity as he observed Benjamin's reaction. "Although our company is based overseas, we also have dealings with domestic businesses, especially the Jerretts and the Valencia family."
"You can say... Our company in is specialized in serving Jerretts and the Valencia family. All our resources can be released for Miss Miller," Benjamin said.
Benjamin's fingers suddenly stopped moving. He sensed some hidden meaning and met Alex's eyes in an instant.
Silently, it seemed as if a game had begun.
Alex may not be as domineering as Benjamin, but he remained calm.
Isabella Moore felt the tension and tried to break the stiffness. She smiled and said, "It's rare to find such a suitable partner in this era."
"That's for sure."
Alex's gaze was gentle, yet there was a different kind of power behind it. "As long as Miss Miller says the word, we, MT company, will spare no effort."
A light laugh escaped from Benjamin's mouth, and it was unclear whether he was truly laughing or being sarcastic. "There must be a reason, right? There are so many companies, and your boss wouldn't favor Miss Miller for no reason. What's the reason? You have been teasing us this whole time, and now I'm genuinely curious."
Sarah and Sofia Harris were talking as they returned to the private room. The moment they pushed open the door, they happened to hear this question.
Both of them keenly sensed the subtle atmosphere, and it felt tense and dangerous.
Sarah and Sofia Harris sat down, both a little curious about what they had just talked about.
"Work," Benjamin replied succinctly.
Alex also smirked and answered his previous question, "Warren said that there are many companies in the country, but our CEO unconditionally favors Miss Miller."
Benjamin squinted his eyes, clearly unhappy. His presence exuded a dark and oppressive aura, almost suffocating.
What is the relationship between the CEO of MT company and Sarah?
