Chapter 549 She’s at the Door
“Sofia Green?” Shirley had no idea who the woman in front of her was. However, Sofia’s unique
temperament caught Shirley’s attention, and she thought that Sofia was a beautiful woman.
Sofia’s fit figure and fancy outfits could outshine a celebrity. However, Sofia wasn’t as good as Veronica
in Shirley’s opinion. Somehow, she has the face of an internet sensation.

“Right, I’m Skye’s girlfriend,” Sofia answered as she put her things down in the foyer without noticing
the person in the dining room. Shirley was confused by the statement. “Who’s Skye?”
“Skye” was a nickname given to Skyler by Sofia. “Don’t play dumb.” Sofia swept her long hair to the
back of her shoulder as she sized Shirley up with a disdainful look. “That’s a fresh choice of outfit. No
wonder Skye would look at you. Guess I’m wrong about you before. You really are something, eh?”
Shirley didn’t need more description to understand who “Skye” was.
She’s referring to Skyler! The realization was blowing her mind.

door. How am I supposed to prove myself innocent?
Thinking back on it, Shirley regretted asking Skyler to join her for the meal.
From the dining room, Skyler could probably hear their conversation in the foyer, but he did not reveal
himself. Shirley didn’t need to think twice to understand he wanted to avoid agitating the situation.
After all, she was good at observing her surroundings and reading people after being Veronica’s
assistant.
Hence, she stated, “Miss Green, I’m afraid you’ve misunderstood. I have nothing to do with Young
Master Skyler, and I wish you two a happy relationship. I’m quite tired, so I apologize for not inviting
you into the house.”
Shirley wanted to chase Sofia away and avoid getting involved with the woman. Things probably
wouldn’t end well if Sofia found Skyler in Shirley’s house.
“I’m already here to apologize. What’s with your attitude?”
Folding her arms, Sofia was glaring daggers at Shirley with a tilted head, as if telling the latter to know
her place.
Sofia would only swallow her pride and apologize to Shirley in the first place due to Shirley being
related to Veronica. Or else, she would never go soft on another woman.
Shirley found Sofia’s rude behavior and arrogant attitude irritating, but she was afraid of such a person.
“Miss Green, I forgive you. I appreciate your kindness, too. However, I’m exhausted after what
happened today.”
Shirley was helpless against Sofia’s outrageous attempt, and she couldn’t hide the tiredness and
impatience that were written all over her face.
However, Sofia was seeing things from a different perspective. Sofia thought Shirley was provoking
her, and the idea of being looked down upon by a poor woman from the lowest level offended her.
“You’ve got quite an attitude.”
Sofia reached out her hands and shoved Shirley. Shirley took a few steps back in her slippers before

to the ground.
Skyler walked out of the dining room when he could no longer stand it for not doing anything. “Sofia,
stop being unreasonable!”
He found Shirley on the ground as soon as he joined the two in the foyer. He immediately assumed
Sofia was the one who pushed Shirley, so he turned to Sofia with a cold look. “Now what? Are you still
not satisfied even after you beat her? Are you trying to do it again at her house?”
Sofia widened her eyes in disbelief when she saw Skyler in Shirley’s apartment. She knitted her brows
as she stuttered, “Y-You—”
She pointed at Skyler before turning to point her finger at Shirley. “You told me that you have nothing to
do with him!”
Before Sofia could get an explanation from Shirley, Skyler walked over to the woman on the ground
and helped her rise to her feet as he asked in concern, “Are you okay?”
It was just an everyday question, but he was talking gentler than usual to Shirley due to the guilt filling
his mind.
From what Sofia saw, Skyler was taking extreme care of Shirley.
