Chapter 31 A Compromise
Sophia compressed her lips. If she really wanted to explain it to Victor, she didn't know how to open her mouth.
"Can we just let it go? I promise you that I will never betray you in the next three years. "
The dead silence enveloped the car.
They arrived at the villa of Victor.
Sophia got a little relieved.
When they got off the car, Web walked up to them and said, "Sir, Miss Sophia, the dinner is ready."
"Yes." Victor responded flatly. Web promptly took the briefcase from Victor's hand, and made a gesture of welcome to Sophia, "please, Miss. Sophia."
Although she had lived here for a few days, it was not easy for her to get used to this kind of life. Sophia thanked Web politely before she followed Victor into the house.
But she didn't want to face Victor alone. She wanted to give Zelda a hand.
"Oh, my God. Why does Miss. Sophia come to the kitchen? Get out of here. Don't get your clothes dirty. " Zelda said in a panic as she noticed that Sophia had come to the kitchen with a mixed feeling.
"It doesn't matter. I don't have anything important to do, so I can help you with something." Sophia said with embarrassment.
"No, I don't think so. I'm afraid that Mr. Victor will blame me for that. And I'm almost ready. You can just wait for dinner."
Since Zelda insisted, Sophia didn't have anything to say. She nodded and returned to the hall.
Victor was reading a magazine while drinking coffee leisurely.
Sophia cautiously walked up to him and noticed that he didn't look at her. She sat down on the sofa and turned on the TV.
And that had become a habit for her.
But wherever Victor was, Sophia couldn't even focus on TV. She often peeked at him from the corner of her eyes.
But this time, Victor noticed Sophia's look on his face. He raised his lips and looked at Sophia with a faint smile.
"Let's eat." Zelda's voice broke the awkward silence in the room.
Then Sophia came to the dining room and helped Zelda to pick up food.
"Is Mr. Victor in a bad mood today?" Zelda whispered.
Sophia's mouth twitch. When had he been in a good mood? However, thinking about this, Sophia replied politely, "I think he has always been like this."
"Oh," Zelda uttered and stopped asking even though she didn't fully understand what Sophia meant.
Until the dinner was over, there was no sign of warmth on Victor's cold face. Sophia felt uneasy for having such a life. The case of a few days ago had presented before, and she didn't know what to do with her after they returned to the room.
Although she escaped last night, what about this night?
Sophia frowned when she thought of this.
"What are you thinking about?" The unexpected words brought Sophia back to the present. her pretty face flushed red.
Damn! She was thinking about that!
Raising his eyebrows slightly, Victor stopped and stared at Sophia. It made Sophia even more ashamed. "You blush. Are you thinking about what we are going to do later?"
"I didn't!" Sophia understood it in a few seconds. So she denied it immediately. But she couldn't help biting her tongue. Didn't she feel guilty on the way to deny it! Sophia wanted to bury herself in the ground!
"It doesn't matter if you have thought it or not. I will do it anyway." A sly smile tugged at the corners of his mouth. Victor wasn't embarrassed at all.
Sophia was speechless.
But she could do nothing to him except silently complaint in her heart.
After dinner, Victor went upstairs. Since Sophia didn't want to go back to his room, she decided to have a small talk with Zelda. When Web came, she pulled Web together. They chatted.
"It's getting late, Miss Sophia. Go to bed early." The conversation didn't last long and Zelda said to Zelda. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
Sophia's embarrassed smile appeared on her face, "well... I'm not sleepy. I'll go to bed later. " It was easy for her to say these words, but it was also hard for her to say it out. Could she say that she did this to get rid of Victor!
If she returned to her room now, she would be tossed and turned again by Victor.
"Sir has been up for a long time. Don't keep him waiting." Web said as if he knew everything.
Sophia's smile on her face became stiff. She tried to change a topic and said, "Web, Zelda, it seems that you want me to be with Mr. Victor every day. He is such a rich man. Did he often change a girlfriend before?"
"Of course not."
"What girlfriend! He will never do that! " Web and Zelda said the moment Sophia finished her words. Web saw this and shook his head with a smile. Zelda continued, "I have never seen Mr. Victor bring any other girls back before. You are the first one. So I think you must be very important to him, right?"
Web agreed.
Sophia confused, "how could it be? I don't believe that he didn't have a girlfriend before, or... Does he really like men? "
Web and Zelda were shocked when they heard this.
Sophia was afraid that she might have said something wrong. So she immediately explained, "Web, Zelda, don't be angry. I just... I just heard someone talking about it, so I said it. Don't take it seriously. "
Zelda couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"How could it be possible! If he likes men, he wouldn't have brought you back. It must be a misunderstanding between Mr. Victor and Mr. Jay Ji. "
Sophia confused.
"Mr. Jay Ji... ?"
Web explained with a smile, "Mr. Jay Ji is Mr. Victor's good friend, but he... Well, I think you will have a chance to see Mr. Jay Ji in the future, but you will understand when you see him. By the way, I heard that there will be a party in a few days. Maybe Victor has told you about it and you will be able to see Jay Ji then. "
Sophia gave a polite smile. She didn't know why Victor told her about this. And she had never heard about this man called Mr. Jay Ji.
"Anyway, there is nothing wrong with Mr. Victor. It can be seen that he cares about you very much. He has been up for a while, right? You'd better go to bed now." Zelda urged.
Web and Zelda, who were extremely "kind" to her, Sophia couldn't help smiling bitterly.
…… When Sophia got up, Victor had changed into pajamas and was reading a book in the bedroom. The dim warm light made his outline softer than usual.
In fact, if he was not so self-willed and overbearing, he should be a good man. Sophia thought in mind, and she was shocked to be dumb.
"Come over if you have seen enough." Victor's voice brought Sophia back to the present.
"You go to bed first. I'll stay up late tonight. I'll read a book too..." Sophia nurse said while shaking the book in her hand. She knew that she couldn't escape the torture of Victor today. But it would be nice if she could last longer. It was so weird when there were only the two of them!
"What's the meaning of reading a book? Let's do something interesting. " Victor put down the book in his hand and stared at Sophia, a smile resting on his lips.
Interesting?
The 'interesting' thing came to Sophia's mind made her speechless. This guy was so amazing! He said it so naturally as if he didn't feel embarrassed at all.
"I'm not feeling well today. Can I have a rain check?" Sophia didn't want to be bothered by Victor.
"No, you can't." Victor opened his mouth and broke Sophia's thought in an instant, "since you said we have only a contract, shouldn't you keep your promise? You haven't explained clearly what happened last night. Why do you want to escape today? "
Victor was fuming with rage when he heard this. Besides, he remembered the man who had be with Sophia yesterday. Victor lay beside Sophia.
Sophia blushed immediately!
Victor noticed Sophia's condition. His face blushed and his eyes became red.
Sophia was eaten up by Victor again.
The next day, when she woke up, the first thing she felt was pain. She felt pain all over her body. Was this guy really powerful! She must be out of her mind to sign a three-year contract with him. If it continued to go on like this, she was afraid that her life would be ruined by him in less than three years!
Sophia muttered to herself. She rubbed her dizzy head irritably, and when she turned her head, she saw the deep eyes of Victor.
"What... Why are you staring at me? " Sophia's feeling overwhelmed her, her voice trembling. She looked away, only to see something inappropriate.
