All Chapters of Be Gentle With Me, Mr. CEO: Chapter 251 - Chapter 260

Hearing such a demand, Calla took a few steps back. She found it hard to believe that someone as audacious as Sophie existed.Sophie was nobody to her, so why would Calla give up her love just because Sophie begged her for it? Either Sophie had lost her mind or she thought Calla was a fool. Unfortunately for Sophie, Calla was no fool, and she firmly rejected Sophie. "I'm sorry, I can't agree to that. I love Mercer, and he loves me. He told me everything about your past with him."You were once in a relationship, but that's long gone. I suggest you move on and find someone who loves you and whom you can love in return. If you keep this up, you'll never find happiness."After saying this, Calla walked past Sophie to get her keys and open the door.Sophie suddenly stood up just then, shouting and cursing at Calla's back, "Mercer loves me! I was his first woman. What do you have that I don't? You better stay away from Mercer or I'll make you regret it!"Calla turned to see a face

"Let's not talk about this now. Focus on getting better first." Mercer's voice was gentle as he spoke. "Please don't blame Calla," Sophie cried. "She was a bit emotional then, that's why we quarreled. She didn't mean to push me. I fell and got upset, which triggered the attack." Standing outside, Calla frowned as she listened to Sophie. Sophie certainly knew how to twist the truth. She subtly accused Calla of hitting her, leading to her sudden asthma attack. At the time, Calla had felt sorry for her, given her medicine, and called an ambulance to take her to the hospital. What a snake in the grass Sophie was! She rescued Sophie and this was how she repaid Calla. Calla didn't rush in, wanting to hear what Mercer would say to Sophie.As if on cue, Mercer asked, "Didn't I make things clear between us? Why did you go to find Calla?" "I… I can't live without you, Mercer. Can we start over?" Sophie's eyes were full of pleading as she lay on the bed."It's long over between us.

These were probably the most beautiful words of affection Calla had ever heard from Mercer. She found herself a bit entranced by him. Calla buried her head in the crook of his neck, taking in his scent. Within seconds, the two had reconciled, and any lingering tension between them dissolved completely.A moment later, Calla lifted her head from Mercer's embrace. She grasped the collar of his coat with both hands and said seriously, "Mercer, let's not see each other for two weeks."Mercer frowned upon hearing this. "But you said you weren't angry anymore. You—" "I'm not saying this out of anger. I'm serious this time." Despite the heavy tone, there was no trace of anger on Calla's face."What do you mean, then?" Mercer asked, looking at Calla in confusion.Calla glanced at the hospital building behind them and said, "I don't want to fight with you over Sophie anymore. I'm giving you two weeks to sort things out with Sophie. When we meet again, I want us to be free of any burde

At this moment, Faith stepped forward and blocked the doorway."What do you mean by this?" Calla glared at Faith, who was leaning against the door frame and blocking her way."This is my office now, and everything inside belongs to me. If anything goes missing after you stroll in, who am I supposed to hold accountable?" Faith sneered maliciously.Calla's eyes narrowed as she glared at Faith. Though she and Faith had never gotten along, she hadn't expected Faith to be so openly hostile now. Faith was truly a petty person."As for your things, I've already had Natasha move them to the storage room. You can go fetch them yourself. I'm busy and have no time to entertain you," Faith said coldly before turning around and closing the door to her office.With the door slammed shut in her face, Calla frowned.At this point, Natasha hurried over and whispered, "Ms. Sherman, shall I take you to get your things? I've packed everything for you and put them in the room over there."Natasha wa

Didn't Faith previously mock Calla about having her contract terminated? Faith had also made a point about Calla receiving her compensation money earlier. Well, that money could be put to good use against Faith now."You!" Calla's bold words made Faith lose all her bravado. After all, she didn't want to get involved in a lawsuit. Having worked at a law firm for many years, she knew how time-consuming and costly lawsuits could be. It was something not everyone could afford.Seeing Faith back down almost immediately, Calla decided not to prolong the confrontation. Her threat of suing for defamation was just to scare Faith anyway.At this point, Natasha realized that Calla was simply arguing with Faith. She had no real intention of going to court. Thus, she quickly knelt to help Calla pick up her things from the floor.Faith, no longer as arrogant as she had been moments ago, saw that Calla wasn't pursuing the matter. She took the opportunity to slip back into her office without a
