My Sweet Wife

This was the first time.

Just as a few people were speculating, Leonardo Cooper stood up, his long and athletic body giving off an invisible sense of oppression, and the voice that opened his mouth to speak was even colder to the extreme:

“The meeting is over. After you go back, you will think about the program, tomorrow I want to see a new program again.”

In the quiet lounge, the woman was sitting on a chair, her hands tangling.

There were no lights on inside the room, and Sophie Sabastian allowed herself to be plunged into a blanket of dimness when suddenly the door to the lounge was opened without a word of greeting.

The familiar scent of an aristocrat passed through, and Sophie Sabastian raised her head to meet a pair of dark, unadulterated eyes that nearly made her jump.

Leonardo Cooper didn’t walk over, instead he hid one hand in his pocket and leaned against the door frame, just by standing like this, he exuded an invisible aura.

There was no trace of emotion on that handsome face, and the voice that spoke was just as cold, “I hope you better have a good reason that will get me out of the conference room to see you.”

Sophie Sabastian was just overly angry, that’s why she said such arrogant words, not expecting Leonardo Cooper to actually leave from the conference room.

Only, seeing Leonardo Cooper, that fire in Sophie Sabastian’s heart rubbed up all of a sudden.

She walked over for the first time and took the initiative to grab Leonardo Cooper’s tie, her pair of beautiful eyes were filled with burning anger at the moment, “Leonardo Cooper, tell me the truth, my mom went to look for you, what exactly did you say to mom?”

Leonardo Cooper’s gaze dissolved into a melting ink as it landed on the woman and said in a low mellow voice, “… I don’t know.”

“You don’t know? How could you not know?”

Sophie Sabastian thought of the possibility that her mother might leave her, the whole person seemed like an enraged beast, and the strength of her hands couldn’t help but intensify, “By the way, Tishon. Did you bring Tishon here?”

Compared to Sophie Sabastian’s excitement, Leonardo Cooper was as cold as a snowy mountain, his eyes looking at her grimly.

“Leonardo Cooper, you tell me, isn’t it?” Sophie Sabastian clenched her teeth.

Tishon, though he was almost an adult, rarely came to town, and what if he hadn’t been brought here by someone, there was no way he could have come here alone.

And only Leonardo Cooper, knew Tishon, and with Leonardo Cooper’s intelligence, there was a good chance he knew what his relationship was to her, too.

Under Sophie Sabastian’s gaze, Leonardo Cooper did not answer his question, instead, he reached out his slender hand and removed Sophie Sabastian’s hand, his tone was rather light: “Do I have the need to answer your question?”

Sophie Sabastian refused to give up, “Leonardo Cooper, why are you doing this?”

Leonardo Cooper didn’t answer, turned around and took his long, slender legs in stride.

“Leonardo Cooper!” hissed Sophie Sabastian, almost desperately.

He turned his head and looked out the window. Perhaps because the sunlight outside was so harsh, Leonardo Cooper’s eyes were slightly stung.

But the man didn’t stop.

Sophie Sabastian watched his departing back and, finally, nearly slipped against the wall.

No, this couldn’t be happening, she had to know what Leonardo Cooper had said to her mom.

There was no way to pry it out of Leonardo Cooper, but she could contact Tishon.

Only, Tishon’s phone number, couldn’t be reached no matter what.

She had to go back to the hospital again.

Trent Stone walked into the president’s office with a respectful tone, “This time, Sophie Sabastian came in looking for you, it seems to be something very important.”

“Yes …,” he looked up from a large piece of paperwork, his black pupil eyes cold as a cold pool, “Busy, to question me!”

Trent Stone was startled for a moment, and then, somewhat embarrassed, “President, are you really ready to give up Sophie Sabastian? I have heard that when Ms. Sophie was a child, it seems that she was once forced by a man who was many years older than her, although she escaped later, but it still left a shadow.”

Leonardo Cooper leaned his back against the back of the leather chair and looked to be deep in thought.

“The old man told me that. But … that’s why she’s so afraid of me?” Leonardo Cooper said lightly, but with an imperceptible hint of confusion in his brow.

Trent Stone instantly had the feeling that he didn’t know whether to tell the truth or not.

Ms. Sophie is so afraid of you, but it’s not just because you are many years older than her, the more important reason is that as long as it’s a woman, standing in front of you should feel afraid, right?

“So, President …”

Leonardo Cooper pulled back his chair, stood up, walked to the front of the floor-to-ceiling window, looked at the bustling city in front of him, and snapped, “Spare her? No way! Send someone to keep a close eye on her!”

“Yes!”

Hospital.

Tristin Sabastian was guarding Sophie’s mom’s side almost without moving an inch.

Sophie Sabastian had also taken time off work and wanted to watch over her mom, but her dad had been reluctant.

“You work hard, and if you don’t feel like working, you rest at home. Your mom’s business, I want me to handle it myself.” It was only a matter of days, but the man looked as if he had aged a dozen years.

Sophie Sabastian, however, couldn’t argue with him. Instead, she waited by the hospital room for her mom to wake up.

After another, rainy, dreary evening, Tristin Sabastian walked out of the hospital room and said to Sophie Sabastian, “Sophie, if you have time, why don’t you go and bring your mom’s favorite harmonica?”

Sophie Sabastian knew that her dad wanted to play the harmonica for her mom himself, so she immediately agreed and walked out of the hospital as the rain fell harder outside.

The rain was the worst way to get a taxi, and Sophie Sabastian stood on the side of the street, soaked to the skin.

Not far away, a black Porsche quietly parked next to the street.

Inside the car, the man’s long fingers were gently placed on the steering wheel, and his outstanding features were reflected in the rearview mirror.

Finally, he took out his cell phone and made a call, “Come over and pick up someone, don’t say that I asked you to go, just pretend to be an ordinary cab driver.”

“Okay, boss.”

Sophie Sabastian was a bit distressed thinking about what she should do, by then a cab suddenly stopped in front of her, the driver waved his hand at her, “Miss, may I ask if you’re looking for a taxi?”

“Yes.”

Sophie Sabastian hurriedly got into the car, and then apologized, “Sorry, my clothes are all wet, I’m willing to pay twice as much.”Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

“That’s okay. You’re too kind.”

She hadn’t slept well inside the hospital in the past few days, and at the moment she was drenched, sitting in the cab with a vague feeling of drowsiness.

The driver seemed to see that she was sleepy and told her to rest for a while.

Sophie Sabastian grunted, leaned back in her seat, and literally fell asleep. The sound of the rain outside gradually became lighter, and the world gradually fell into a silence.

Finally, she dreamed of him.

The world a flower white, she saw him wearing the head of the invariable black suit, wrapped his robust body, features are still the same cold, fingers gently hold her up.
