Get you in my arms

Chapter 22 Verify It Again

After murmuring a few words to another, the man stood up immediately and beckoned another man to take her out. "Let me go! I can walk myself!" Sophia said Though she wanted to run away from them, she couldn't.

"If you don't want to die, let her go right now!" A harsh voice was heard and Sophia saw Lucas rushing towards her. He didn't see her at the airport, so he knew that she must have sneaked out to look for John. Mr. Yao's staff was shocked by his fierce posture, and he immediately loosened his hand, knowing that he was no match for him.

"I came back to give this back to you." She took off her ring and threw it at him. "From now on, you and I are strangers!" Then she turned around and left.

"Sophia, I'm sorry. I'm sorry!" John was paralyzed to the ground, like a helpless child with a headache.

Lucas gave him a pitiful look and followed her out.

At night, Sophia went to the bar alone. It was said that alcohol could chase away her sorrows. But she found that the more she drank, the more sad she was. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

"I don't think it's good. Give me another one."

The bartender served her a cup of long island ice tea. When she was about to taste it, a pair of big hands stopped her.

"Sophia, you are drunk." The deep and magnetic voice was obviously from Lucas.

"I'm not drunk. I want more." She shook off his hand. How could she feel uncomfortable if she was drunk?

"If you are sad, drinking alone is useless." He held her up and said, "when we get back, I'll be your sandbag and let you vent your spleen enough."

What happened after she got on the car? She could only vaguely remember that she had flung him down, not just to carry him as a sandbag. It was not until she woke up at noon the next day that she realized that she was seriously injured.

"Lucas --" Her roar echoed the walls.

"You wake up." While walking to her unhurriedly, the man bent down and said seriously, "don't worry, I'll be responsible for you for the rest of my life!" He paused and pinched her chin gently. "From now on, you are not allowed to drink even a drop of wine when I'm not around. Remember!" His tone was so arrogant.

Sophia's heart trembled slightly, and there was a feeling of inexplicable love surging in her heart, but she suddenly stopped on the way. "It's okay that I don't drink, but how are you responsible for me? Am I a sandwich, sandwiched between you and your lover?" Her nose ached and her eyes turned red.

He didn't know whether he should laugh or cry. "Why do you think that I like men?"

She did not speak, and turned her head away, pretending to ignore him. It was him who had admitted it himself, but now he refused. She was not a fool, and she would not easily believe him. Suddenly, Lucas touched her body. Sophia was scared, "what do you want?"

"Should we verify it again to see if I am a man or not?" He said with an evil smile.

She blushed and couldn't get out of bed.

In the following one week, she was still in a haze. The change was so fast that she was not used to it for a while. Luckily, Jay was willing to take photos of the huge news and he finally returned with victory.

In the cafe, Jay patted and coaxed her while holding her in his arms, "Oh, my dear Sophia, I just left for a few days. How could you be so upset! John is such a coward. "

"There is end between him and me!" She rubbed her temples. She was so sad. Her heart had been hallucinating after a bomb had been shot.

"Don't pull a long face then. There's no wild woman in the world. You don't have to be entangled with him."

"No, that's not what I'm concerned about." She put her chin in her hands and sighed.

"What else could I bother you?" Jay giggled.

She told him about her relationship with Lucas.

As soon as Jay heard that, he could not help but spit out the coffee all over his mouth. Then he asked, "Sophia, are you doing this to revenge on John?"

Confused, she scratched her head. It was true that she was angry, but mostly it was because she had nothing to lose. After leaving John, her heart turned into a blank, which was the void and loneliness that she had never experienced before. But Lucas appeared in the wrong time and filled the void in time.

"Who is this man? Do you need me to check his background?" Jay wiped his mouth.

"No, he is my boss, CEO of ZW Group." She pouted and thought to herself, 'he is so mysterious that I can't understand him at all. I don't know whether he is real or not.'

"Oh, my god!" Jay covered his mouth with astonishment, "Lucas is a big shot." Sophia, you're going to be a super star. "

"Jay, can you still speak louder? All people in the coffee shop should hear you." She was desperate to hide herself.

I'm serious. You have to keep an eye on Mr. Lucas this time. Don't let him slip away. " He looked excited as if he had found a new rich guy.

"It's just money. What's the big deal?" As the saying goes, wealth and power can't let you yield.

"Let me ask you, what is your biggest ambition?"

Sophia was stunned for a while. Her biggest ambition was to be a rich woman, and let the bastard, who had abandoned her mother and herself, apologize to them! "Does it have anything to do with Lucas?"

"It's a big deal," Jay patted her on the shoulder and comforted her, "he is a tall and strong man. You just need to climb up to the top by getting close to him. You can't rely on yourself to succeed. Many people's success relies on the shoulders of the giants. Only those who have opportunities and people can achieve half success with half success. You have great opportunity to meet him, so you should make good use of him. "

"Take advantage of?" "I just want to be in love. Don't make things so complicated, okay?"

"No, no, no." Jay shook his head and added, "That man and woman get along with each other was like the game of love. Love is mutual use. Both of them get what they want from each other." He put his arm around her shoulder and continued, "from now on, I will be your love strategist. I promise you, you will tame Mr. Lucas."

What Jay had said made her confused. She scratched her head, wondering whether she could understand him or not. However, after she went back, she thought about it for the whole night, and then she gradually understood what Jay was talking about. God had closed the door for her, he opened the window for her. Perhaps this was an opportunity.

She didn't know Lucas well. He was like a mystery, difficult to understand, difficult to guess. However, she decided to make a bet. Life is a game made up of many gambles. As long as the earth hadn't stopped spinning, it wouldn't be the end of the day. If she lost, she would come back again.
