Chapter 356
“Yes. I need to talk to Sophie. But I'll come and stay here with you later at night.”
“It's okay, Mark. I know you're very busy these days, so you don't have to come here at night. Just get
some rest.” If Sunny did not act impulsively and rushed to meet Clayton, he would not be lying in the
hospital. He knew it was all his fault.
Mark patted his shoulder and left too.
Once they were outside, Clayton noticed that a huge crowd of reporters was waiting for them. When
the reporters saw him, they started to surround him.
“Are you here in the hospital to apologize to Sunny, Mr. Zales?”
“Mr. Zales, even though The Wheelers had terminated their contract with your company, it was ended
on good terms. Why did you hit Sunny so badly?”
“I've heard that many celebrities under Sky Media are asking for their contracts to be terminated as
well, Mr. Zales. How do you feel about it?”
One by one, they flung the questions at him.
Clayton did not even have the time to answer.
Wilbur, meanwhile, tried to shield him from the reporters. However, it was a vain effort as he was the
only one around.
In order to show his sincerity, Clayton did not bring any bodyguards with him. That was the reason why
the reporters managed to surround him.
Thus, the only thing that he could do was to back away.
Some of the reporters, however, were so careless that their cameras bumped into Clayton.
Despite that, he had to work hard to keep his anger in check.
Why are the reporters here? Moreover, why are there so many of them? But I can't lose it. I need to
control my temper.
He pasted a smile on his face.
“Hello, everyone. I'm actually here to apologize to Sunny.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Is that true? But why did you beat Sunny up, Mr. Zales? No matter what, he was once an artist signed
under your company.”
Clayton was rendered speechless.
He knew that he would not be able to give the right answer.
After all, Sunny was still lying in the ward.
At that moment, the reporters saw Sophie and rushed over to talk to her.
“An artist under TS Entertainment was beaten up, Ms. Tanner. How will you handle this matter?”
All eyes were fixed on Sophie.
Previously, they knew her only as the third daughter of the Tanner family. It was the first time the
reporters interviewed her after she had become the CEO of Tanner Group.
What kind of person is she? She has become a CEO at such a young age!
“Indeed, Mr. Zales is here to apologize. But we're not going to accept his apology. TS Entertainment is
going to hand this matter over to a lawyer. Mr. Zales had assaulted Sunny, so I think that it's better for
the court to deliver the final verdict.”
She was not a merciful person.
Sunny was nearly beaten to death. It was not something that could be settled by a mere apology.
“You...” Clayton did not expect to be screwed by Sophie. What did she mean? Has she taken me for a
ride in the past few days?
“An eye for an eye. You have to repay your debt. It's only a proper thing to do.”
“You have such strong moral values, Ms. Tanner.” They initially thought that once Clayton had
apologized, Sophie would accept the apology.
After all, Clayton was a very influential person in Jipsdale.
However, they did not expect her to be so bold.
“Are you messing with me, Sophie?” Clayton was enraged.
“What's the matter? Are you saying that you don't have to apologize after hitting someone?” she asked
indifferently.
“Let's go back, Clayton.” The situation was not favorable to Clayton. Wilbur knew that if they continued
to stay there, it would cause more trouble for them.
In fact, Clayton wanted to leave as well. However, he could not move an inch as there were too many
reporters surrounding them.
“Do you think that I don't want to leave?” Gosh! Can't he see that I'm stuck here? Then, he added, “You
better call a few bodyguards to come here.”
Wilbur immediately went to the side to make the call.
“We know your social status in Jipsdale, Mr. Zales. Can you please tell us what is the reason for your
apology? Do you really want to ask for forgiveness?”
Clayton was extremely annoyed.
Wilbur was trying his best to block the reporters from getting near Clayton. “I'm sorry, everyone.
Clayton isn't going to answer any questions today. But we will have a press conference later on. You
can ask him the questions there.”
Sophie smiled coldly upon seeing the situation.
It's merely the beginning. The next one will be even more entertaining. Clayton's glorious days are
over. From the time he beat Sunny up, his fate has been sealed.
“That's enough. Let's get inside the car.” Tristan was with her all the time. Therefore, he knew that she
was the one who planned everything.
But it doesn't matter at all! After all, Clayton deserves it. My girl isn't someone to be trifled with. Since
Clayton dares to mess with her, he will need to bear the consequences.
“Okay, let's go.”
“Hey, Sophie!” Mark yelled. He felt that she had become a stranger after watching how she had
planned everything so mercilessly.
Sophie stopped in her tracks.
“You should go back first, Mark,” she said to him.
The reporters, meanwhile, surrounded Mark the moment they saw him. they wanted to interview him as
he was the leader of The Wheelers.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNevertheless, Sophie asked a few security guards to accompany Mark to his car before she climbed
into hers.
Clayton was even more furious after seeing Sophie get into her car. This chic has the nerve to mess
with me!
It was already more than an hour later when Clayton went back to his ward. He had an ugly scowl on
his face, and he looked terrible.
Wilbur did not dare to say anything.
At that moment, he only wished that he was invisible and went unnoticed.
Subsequently, Clayton smashed everything that he could find in the room.
Things haven't been going well for me recently. What's going on?
“Please don't get angry, Clayton. She won't be happy for long. We'll get our revenge the moment
Tristan is done with her.” After all, she's just an ordinary woman. There's no man in this world who
would stay in love with the same woman for so long.
“Tristan Lombard!” Clayton had the same thought as well. That bit*h has Tristan to back her up.
Otherwise, she would not have the courage to do anything.
Meanwhile, Tristan and Sophie arrived at Sean's law firm.
Sean was already waiting for them.
“Why are you here? Don't you trust me?”
“It's nothing like that. I just want to see if you need anything else.” Sean was a famous lawyer in the
legal field. Once he accepted the case, there would not be any problem anymore. I have nothing to
worry about if Sean's here!
“There's none. Don't worry. Clayton has already received our demand letter,” he said without any
expression.
“Thank you for your help.”
“You're Mr. Tristan's girlfriend, so you don't have to be this polite.” He was not someone who liked to
make small talk, so it was natural that he did not speak much to Sophie.
