Chapter280 Jealousy
Jealousy
Zach kept glaring at her. But she seemed like she did not take it seriously. Then he was more vexed. He relaxed his gripped of her hand and then rubbed hard at her hair where Charlie had touched. “Don’t let others touch your head!”
He did not want anyone to touch his baby.
Sophia was not offended. She made fun of him instead, “No.”
“What?”
He asked in a low voice. And Sophia felt the sound of him gashing his teeth was even louder, so she could not resist laughing, “My dad and my mom will still touch my head, I can’t stop them.”
“Well...”
Zach was a bit discomfited and he did not know how to reply.
She was right. He would never dare to stop his parents-in-law to touch their daughter. Thinking of that, he looked more upset.
Sophia laughed out loud when she saw his look, “Zach, you’re so cute.”
“Cute?” Zach start to grit his teeth again.
“Right. You are acting like a girl who keeps complaining.” She was killing herself laughing. “Come on, don’t be like that. You’re killing me.”
“Sophia!”
Zach was more incensed when he saw she kept sniggering. Then he untied his seat bell and scooped her into his arms.This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
Sophia was surprised and then fell to his arms before she had any response.
“Zach!”
“You smiled at him so happily!” He was still gritting his teeth. Then he held her face.
Sophia was bewildered at first, then she realized he had misunderstood. “I was just being polite. You’re overthinking it.”
Zach sniffed. Sophia wiped the tears which were brought by her laughing, “Okay, I’ll be angry if you continue to act like that. There’s no man who is so petty as you are. Why can’t I talk to other guys?”
“But you never give me such a bright smile, and you keep being horrible to me…”
He was still whining, which amused Sophia again. But she resisted the impulse to laugh and then kissed him on his cheek.
“But I won’t kiss him. Why are you jealous of him? Don’t you feel embarrassed?”
“Sophia.”
“What?”
Sophia looked into his eyes and found he was expectant, “One more kiss!”
Sophia was shy and then gave him a glare. Then she wanted to detach herself from his embrace and come back to her seat. But Zach was still holding her, “One more kiss. I didn’t even feel your touch.”
“Zach! Stop that…”
She did not finish her words, but Zach approached and then kissed her lips. After a moment, he released his hold, grinning from ear to ear, “OK, now I know you were being completely truthful with
me.”
Sophia was a bit angered and abashed, with her cheeks flushing red.
“Zach, shame on you!”
Zach did not deny, as if he agreed with that, “I’m only brazen in front of you.”
Sophia had a twitch on her lips, “Stop it! You are unabashed in front of everyone.”
Zach looked upset, “I’m that kind of person in your mind?”
“Yep.” Sophia answered, and her smile broadened.
“Well, I thought I was a handsome and unbeatable hero to you. It turns out…”
“Stop bragging. Let’s go, hurry.” Sophia asked him to drive. Her colleagues had already been gossiping about her. They could not stay here any longer, otherwise there would be much more gossip.
Zach became more cheerful and said, “We’ll have dinner in Logan’s house.”
“Really?”
“Mia has come back. I think you may want to eat the dinner cooked by her, so I get us invited.”
Sophia was exuberant. She even wanted to throw herself on him and give him a reward. But he was driving the car, so she had to restrain herself.
They arrived in the villa. Zach entered the passcode directly and came in. Mia did not come back from the shopping yet, and the living room was empty.
Sophia hid behind his back. “I’ve told you to called them at first. Now they aren’t at home and we look like thieves breaking in an empty house.”
“There’s nothing to worry about. We won’t steal anything from them.” Zach patted her hand to comfort her.
Sophia rolled her eyes at him, “No wonder my idol wants to kill you every time when he sees you.”
Zach ignored her words and said, “Don’t complicate it. Where will Logan go in this moment?”
Then he whispered to her stealthily, “Believe it or not, they must be in the bedroom right now, I’m sure.”
“Why do you know?”
“Who do you think I am?” He was the one who knew everything.
Zach took her upstairs, as if he was really trying to confirm what he had said. Sophia was nervous and stopped him, “Don’t you think that’s a little bit rude?”
What if they…
“Not at all.” Zach did not care what she had said.
Sophia wanted to give him a slap. That was the bedroom of Logan and Elena. She thought it was inappropriate to come in directly.
But apparently, Zach did not think of that. He still tried to comfort her, “Relax, I…”
Speaking to Sophia, Zach knocked at the door and then opened it. Logan and Elena were lying on the bed to have a rest.
As the door was opened, they looked at each other without speaking. The atmosphere at the room soured.
Zach was in a sweat – he felt like he was a dead man to Logan.
“Well…”
He gave a wry smile, trying to lighten the atmosphere under the pressure. “I did not mean it. The door must be broken. It was opened when I just knocked at the door. You…”
Logan was always self-possessed. But he was also amused, with his lips curving in a smile, “Zach, ‘good for you’.”
“It was an accident, really. The door is to be blamed.”
Logan stared at him with his piercing eyes.
“Dude, don’t… Just calm down. There’s no need to make it such a big deal. Go on, please. I’ll go downstairs with Sophia.”
Zach was in a cold sweat. Then he took Sophia to go downstairs hurriedly after saying that. And he ran so fast as if there were some beasts chasing after him.
