Chapter 107 Sophia, I Miss You
Sophia didn't want him to know it, or he didn't deserve to know it!
After this meeting, the two didn't see each other again.
Sophia worked harder, and Chloe, who was watching Sophia, was really worried.
"Sophia, what happened to you and Drake that day? I feel like you become a different person after you came back."
"Nothing!" Sophia said lightly.
"Hey, why keep it a secret? You give me the runaround every time. If nothing happened, why do you look like you lose your family?" Sophia was out of words.
'Chloe, you are so sharp-tongued!'
"Sophia, can you stop taking care of everything by yourself? If Drake bullies you, we will settle the score with him for you."
Sophia smiled. "Nothing, seriously."
Chloe's eyes widened in anger.
No matter what she said, Sophia just kept it to herself.
Sometimes, she couldn't tolerate Sophia's stubbornness.
"Okay, just keep it to yourself. Do whatever you like! It's none of my concern!" After finishing speaking, Chloe went out.
Sophia's eyes fell on the outside, and there were tall buildings outside, but she took no heed of them. Drake's words, "Sophia, I miss you." occupied her mind. 'Sophia, I miss you!'
Sophia even thought she was going crazy!
Why was that sentence echoing in her mind?
Bard came to find her and noticed Sophia wasn't in the right state. "What's wrong with her?"
"Who knows? She's been like this since she came back that day!" Chloe didn't bother with Sophia's business.
Bard frowned. "Sophia, I've told you, if Drake bullies you, tell me, and I will deal with him for your sake."
"He didn't bully me. Bard, Chloe, let me take you to a newly opened sushi bar. I heard its food is delicious."
Bard and Chloe exchanged glances.
The look in Chloe's eyes seemed to imply, 'See? That's it!'
What could Bard do?
When Sophia came back, he did check secretly and found that there was no marks left by a man on Sophia's body.
Logically, Drake did not force her to have sex. But why did Sophia become a different person?
When they got to the sushi bar and got out of the car, unfortunately, they met Drake, Flynn and Bailey.
In the past, if they met each other, Drake and Sophia would look at each other for a while, and then Sophia would leave first.
Today, to everyone's surprise, Drake walked inside without even looking at Sophia.
Flynn can feel that Drake had changed since he came back from the suburbs, but his change was so large!
"Sophia, what happened to you?" Flynn asked.
Drake who was in front said, "Aren't you going in?"
Flynn knew Drake was a little bit annoyed, so he smiled apologetically at Sophia and quickly followed Drake.
Sophia didn't care about it, and was going to walk forward.
Bailey walked in front of Chloe. "Grandpa invited you to dinner at home tonight."
Chloe nodded. "Okay."
"I'll pick you up then."
"OK!"
Bailey walked in.
When Sophia, Chloe, and Bard walked inside, they had no idea that their private box was opposite to Drake's box.
It would be fine if the door was closed, and nothing could be seen, but when the door was opened, everyone could feel the discomfort of Sophia and Drake.
No, Sophia and Drake seemed fine with it and they were the ones feeling uncomfortable.
Chloe stared at Sophia curiously while Flynn stared at Drake curiously.
"Aren't you going to eat?" Sophia and Drake almost asked at the same time.
Flynn said incredulously, "Jesus, you said the same words at the same time. It was amazing how much you connected!"
Neither Sophia nor Drake darted a glance at each other, as if they hadn't hear what the other was saying.
Bard closed the door first. What a joke! It was so annoying to look at Drake!
"Close the door!"
Over there, Drake ordered.
Flynn obediently closed the door.
Bard said with some concern, "Sophia, you won't stay here after you finish settling the things here, will you?"
Sophia smiled. "Bard, how did you see that I want to stay here?"
"Isn't it obvious? No matter how you two cover it up, there's something fishy between you two."
Sophia was rendered speechless.
She subconsciously looked at Chloe. "Is it?"
Chloe kept nodding.
"You must have read it wrong. Nothing fishy between Drake and me."
Chloe and Bard, of course, didn't buy a word of it!
"Okay, let's eat!"
Coincidentally, these two groups of people finished having food and came out of the private boxes at the same time.
Sophia and Drake were the first to come out. They were really like strangers, and they just walked by without looking at each other.
Anyway, Flynn who was watching them had a confused look on his face.
After this coincidental meeting, every time Sophia and Drake met each other, they still acted like strangers to each other, which made everyone else around them feel that they had given up on each other. The work went smoothly.
Chloe was keeping an eye on Sophia, and found that Sophia seemed to be fine.
However, Chloe vaguely felt that something was wrong.
Well, she couldn't bear it any longer.
One day, when Sophia was working, she received a message: Sophia, I'm about to exit the airport. Come and have a meal with me if you have time!
Sophia glanced at it and replied: Okay, Ms. Glass, I have some work to do, and I will go to you as soon as I finish it.
-Okay, I'll wait for you.
At the airport, Emma walked out of the exit, and the moment she saw Drake, her eyes were wet.
"Drake!" she called softly.
After all, they had experienced so many years of separation.
Though they had been keeping in contact with each other, they had never seen each other face to face.
Although they established a good relationship with each other on the phone, when they met, they couldn't feel comfortable with each other like other mother and son. "Mom!" Drake yelled, albeit stiffly.
"I'm here!"
Emma didn't expect him to call her "Mom" and she lost her composure for a moment.
Drake tried to reach out and gave her a hug.
Though Emma never expected it, she also stretched out her hands and put her arms around her son's waist.
Back then, when she left, Drake was very little.
Although he could walk, he couldn't remember things that happened back then.
But now, he was tall enough to give her a sense of security.
Moreover, he was really handsome!
Drake took the luggage from her hand. "Mom, I've made all the arrangements you asked me to. I'll take you to your place and then we'll go get something to eat."
