Chapter 72 I’ll go with you.
The feeling of being ignored was harder than expected, and the tip of Sophie Sabastian’s nose was a little sore, yet she stood up and walked over towards the side with the chocolate.
“Leonardo Cooper,” she called her name.
It was only this time that Leonardo Cooper finally turned back to her, glancing at her with a somewhat cold brow, his dark eyes unsure of what kind of emotion was going on.
“… That, a gift for you.”
Sophie Sabastian took out the chocolate and placed it in front of him.
Leonardo Cooper didn’t immediately reach out his hand to take it, only a flash of surprise seemed to flash through his eyes.
His white, slender fingers, gently stroked the smooth box, past the label, and Leonardo Cooper slowly read, “Ninety-nine dollars.”
“Ah … well, I’ve been picking them out for quite a while, and I thought this one was pretty good, so that’s why I picked it out for you.” Sophie Sabastian rubbed her head a little embarrassed, “Also, I was really busy last time, that’s why I didn’t get to go see Little Red with you, I’m sure I’ll have time to go this Sunday.”
Leonardo Cooper’s dark eyes drooped as he looked at the price tag on top of the box, his expression momentarily unreadable.
Sophie Sabastian gave him a cautious look, and couldn’t guess what exactly was going through Leonardo Cooper’s mind.
Could it be that he resented the fact that she had bought this one too cheaply?
“That, next time, I’ll definitely choose something a little better. I’m really sorry this time.” Sophie Sabastian looked apprehensive, “I wanted to make it myself, but I’m so bad with my hands …”
Leonardo Cooper hears this and results in a box of chocolates in Sophie Sabastian’s hand, looking indifferent.
“Chocolate, right?” Leonardo Cooper raised the box of chocolates, his eyes filled with coldness within them, even with a hint of anger.
Sophie Sabastian froze when she saw the look in his eyes, had she done something wrong again?
In the next second, the chocolate box was thrown violently, the box hit the ground and immediately smashed open, Sophie Sabastian watched the chocolates inside roll out, the tips of her fingers were a little cold.
Silence for a long time, Sophie Sabastian’s nails were almost on the verge of going deeper into her skin finally she took a deep breath and looked up at Leonardo Cooper: “You … you don’t like chocolate? Shall I buy you something else?”
“I don’t need anything from you.”
“Leonardo Cooper… you, are you mad at me?”
“Sophie Sabastian,” he called her name, and finally reached out and clamped his hand around her jaw with such force that he nearly made Sophie Sabastian cry, “Do you think you have anything to be mad at me for? ”
It took Sophie Sabastian a moment to snap back to her senses at the sound of those words.
It was also true that a man like Leonardo Cooper wouldn’t care about her at all!
Leonardo Cooper turned around and went upstairs.
Before leaving, he didn’t even look at Sophie Sabastian and only said “Butler, pack up the stuff and throw it away.”
She lowered her head in some frustration and looked down the dark brown steps, the sourness at the tip of her nose growing.
The housekeeper was about to pack up the chocolates when Sophie Sabastian turned around.
“Don’t pack it up, I’ll take care of it.”
There was something vaguely stifled in Sophie Sabastian’s voice.
“Ma’am …”
Sophie Sabastian squatted down and picked up the chocolates on the floor one by one, her black hair sliding down her cheeks, Sophie Sabastian softly said, “It’s fine.”
The housekeeper was silent for a while before saying after some deliberation, “Madam, the young master should have a misunderstanding about you.”
It was better for the two of them to settle things between these two people themselves.
“Misunderstanding?” Sophie Sabastian snapped.
Because of what? She sat up on the couch thinking, not even knowing when the butler left.
After racking her brain she couldn’t come up with anything, and getting a little sleepy, she simply took a nap, but she didn’t expect to fall asleep like that.
When she opened her eyes, it was already bright outside, Sophie Sabastian yawned and straightened up, only to realize that she was actually back in her bedroom bed, she looked at the familiar place with some incredulity.
What was going on, she clearly remembered falling asleep on top of the couch yesterday.
Sophie Sabastian clenched her fingers as another possibility suddenly occurred to her …
Could it be that Leonardo Cooper had carried her back?
Thinking of this, Sophie Sabastian felt the tip of her nose start to sour again.
After going downstairs, Sophie Sabastian searched around, and after the housekeeper’s reminder, she realized that Leonardo Cooper had left very early in the morning, “Young master is on a business trip, and may not be able to come back until tomorrow.”
She still thought that today, she could go to see Little Red.
At noon, Sophie Sabastian had nothing to do at home, so she simply went out to eat.
The taste of the curry was so delicious that it almost melted in her mouth, Sophie Sabastian couldn’t get enough of it, and when she was about to order a second bowl, a person suddenly sat down in front of her on the empty seat.
Unlike before, today’s man was wearing a slightly more formal shirt with two buttons casually undone, revealing a collarbone a few shades deeper than a woman’s, white and sultry.
“…” Sophie Sabastian pursed her lips.
How is it that you see this guy everywhere?
Nathanael Lora was wearing black sunglasses, it was almost as if she was a star who had stepped out from inside a movie, the corner of her lips slightly hooked, “Sophie, it really is a coincidence, isn’t it?”
Sophie Sabastian lowered her head, I don’t know why, this man always gives people a feeling of not being able to guess, “Uh-huh.”
“The curry and rice you had? I quite like it too.”
Sophie Sabastian still just gave a faint hmmm.
And when it came time for the third question, Sophie Sabastian found herself unable to remain bland.
“Sophie Sabastian, let’s go see the boy together.” Nathanael Lora hooked her lips for a moment, as if it were a sultry rose blooming in that moment.
“Nathanael Lora…” Sophie Sabastian looked at him, a little flustered, “You don’t joke.”
“I never joke.” He gave a low chuckle.
She looked at him, “Nathanael Lora…”
He laughed a little and finally held out a newspaper that had been folded into a square, unfolding it and placing it in front of her, a smile still on his face, “Or maybe you’ll look at this before you decide?”
Sophie Sabastian took one look and couldn’t take her eyes off it.
The man who was supposed to have gone on a business trip appeared on the headlines at the moment. The close-up photo was of the man with another woman, and although the man was only in the back, that handsome back, she could instantly recognize who it was.
Leonardo Cooper?
Sophie Sabastian’s heart felt as if it had been gripped.
Leonardo Cooper was with another woman? Wasn’t Leonardo Cooper on a business trip?
It was as if she was drowning in the sea, her breathing became hard, and I don’t know how long it took, but it was so quiet inside the store that she could hear her breathing, and finally she heard her own voice: “I’ll go with you.”
The red Maserati, Sophie Sabastian only looked at it before withdrawing her gaze and after a second of hesitation, got inside.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
