Chapter 85 – The Fool
She was bored in the living room, so she stood, and left the living room.
After talking to Old Cooper for a while, Leonardo Cooper realized that Sophie Sabastian was gone.
“I’ll go out and check.” Leonardo Cooper took a sip of tea and stood up.
Old Cooper touched the rim of her cup, “You don’t have to be so nervous, no one is going to do anything about her.”
Leonardo Cooper said without changing his face, “I just wanted to hang out too.”
At this remark Old Cooper, couldn’t say anything else and simply left him alone.
The Cooper family is really big, Leonardo Cooper looked around, Sophie Sabastian’s shadow was not seen, but saw another woman.
“Jenny.”
Hearing the familiar male voice, Jenny was startled and turned around to see Leonardo Cooper, somewhat puzzled, “What’s wrong? Uncle.”
“Have you seen your third aunt?”
“No. …” So it was about this.
Leonardo Cooper glanced at her, and before he left, he icy coldly spat out a sentence, “I hope that you can all get along together, especially Emma, if the next time she’s talking nonsense, I’ll put this debt on your head.”
With that said, Leonardo Cooper left in stride.
Jenny’s face was a little hard to read, had he already seen that she had actually taught him those words?
Walking out into the backyard, he then sees Sophie Sabastian, who is so bored that she is counting ants.
The two left the backyard and Sophie Sabastian asked if it was time to go home.
Leonardo Cooper held her little hand, knowing she was bored, “Just bear with me, there’s still dinner to be had …”
All afternoon Sophie Sabastian played transparent in the living room, only to leave near dinner when Leonardo Cooper suddenly took a phone call.
“Sister, let’s go to the bathroom together.” At that moment, the little girl named Emma who was at noon suddenly came over and tugged on the corner of her coat.
“… Where’s your mom?” Sophie Sabastian wasn’t a saintly mother, and really didn’t have much love for a child who had scolded her, even if the child didn’t know any better, or maybe it was just someone else who had put some kind of idea into the child …
“My mommy went somewhere.” The little child looked aggrieved, as if she was going to cry the next second, and Sophie Sabastian, who feared nothing more than someone crying, had to pick her up and walk over in the direction of the restroom.
A gaze had been following Sophie Sabastian’s shadow, and after seeing Sophie Sabastian leave, he took Sophie Sabastian’s cell phone in his hand, and after opening it, he found someone’s WeChat.
Fingers quickly typed the message: in fact, I still like you, if you are willing, the two of us go back together, okay?ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
… I don’t like Leonardo Cooper at all. If it wasn’t for the fact that at that time my whole body was stupid, how could I be with Leonardo Cooper. The only one I like is yours.
… Don’t be like this, don’t leave me okay …
…
When the girl came out after going to the restroom, she reached out her hand for a hug from Sophie Sabastian, saying in a milky voice, “Thank you, big sister.”
It seems like this child doesn’t even know the basics of what to call her. Sophie Sabastian’s heart softened and she picked up the girl and walked home with her.
On the way back to the main house, passed a bridge, The Cooper family worthy of The Cooper family, basically everything, under the bridge in the water there are a few full of yellow ducklings swimming around.
The girl was so excited to see the ducks that she kept reaching out for them, Sophie Sabastian saw her excitement and went to the side to have a better look.
She didn’t realize that the bridge was so slippery and the handrail was so short that the girl kept lunging towards it, and Sophie Sabastian lost her center of gravity for a moment and fell into the water.
“Ah!”
It was summer at the moment, but the water was still freezing cold. Sophie Sabastian was violently dunked in two big mouthfuls of water, but still nervously was shouting, “Emma where are you?”
“Oooo… well!” The sound of a girl crying and choking on water came from the side, Sophie Sabastian hurriedly slid over to the sound, the little girl had fallen into the water, she immediately picked the girl up.
…
Several people inside the room were making a lot of noise.
The appearance of a man brought the noise to an abrupt end.
Still the white cenci shirt, underneath was a pair of black nine-minute pants, the man’s body looked long and tall, and his black eyes couldn’t help but feel intimidated.
In the middle of the crowd was the woman sitting on the couch, wrapped in a blanket with her head bowed.
Her face was a little pale, her eyes were slightly red, looking as if she was an abandoned kitten, generally pitiful. The woman’s appearance was reflected in the man’s pupils, Leonardo Cooper’s heart ached for a moment, and his face suddenly turned cold as he walked over with his long legs.
As soon as he took Sophie Sabastian into his arms, Leonardo Cooper’s fingers compassionately stroked over her face, and his tone and face were much gentler as he faced her, “Sophie, what’s wrong?”
Jenny snorted coldly, “Uncle, this time it’s not me talking nonsense, all of us can see it. Sophie Sabastian left with Emma for a long time and didn’t come back, I was a bit worried about Emma, so I went out to look for Emma, guess where I found Emma?”
As if she was sure that the words she uttered next would cause a not-so-small reaction, Jenny purposely paused for a moment and looked at Sophie Sabastian coldly, this time, let’s see how you can still turn around.
“Did I ask you?” Unexpectedly, Leonardo Cooper gave her a cold look.
Then, Leonardo Cooper picked Sophie Sabastian up and walked towards the gate as if ignoring the crowd, the people standing next to her didn’t dare to say anything, but thinking that the next thing was most likely this matter would just go away, Jenny said stiffly, “Uncle, I haven’t finished my words yet. ”
“Then let’s talk about it later!” His tone was decisive.
Only after leaving the room did Sophie Sabastian dare to raise her head from his arms, a pair of dark eyes watery, coupled with reddened orbs, it was so heartbreaking to watch.
Leonardo Cooper eyes flashed a trace of remorse and heartache, gently kissed the tip of her nose: “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have left.”
Sophie Sabastian originally did not have any kind, but after hearing Leonardo Cooper’s words, her nose suddenly became sour, looking at Leonardo Cooper and asking accusingly, “Don’t you even want to know what happened?”
“Fool, no matter what happens, I trust you not to do anything to disappoint me.”
For the first time, someone had said something like that to her from her side.
Sophie Sabastian threw her arms around his neck, buried her head in his chest, and cried.
It took a while before Sophie Sabastian stopped crying.
Leonardo Cooper saw that she had calmed down and went out the door, and within a few moments, brought over some clothes.
“Hurry up and change, I’ll wait for you downstairs.” After saying that, he walked out and carefully closed the door.
