Chapter 152 Sophia, You Can't Afford to Lose Any More Time
Chapter 152 Sophia, You Can't Afford to Lose Any More Time
"You won't." She withdrew her hand.
"Okay, I know you believe that I can handle it, but do you really bear to see that?"
He was right. If he hadn't found her to ask for her, she would persuade her to leave all Drake's things
behind.
But now, she wavered after Drake talked about his misery. As her brother said, she was too susceptible
and soft-hearted.
Sophia looked away unwittingly, "I don't want to be part of it."
"Then you shouldn't have slept with me."
"You slept with me, you need to be responsible for me."
Sophia said resignedly, "Can you just let it go?"
"No, I can't. You must be responsible for me."
She was annoyed, "So you are going to be like the sticky stuff?"
"Yeah."
Sophia had no idea how to refute him, but meanwhile she was aware that the reason why he booked
the breakfast here was because it was a nice place to talk.
And honestly, she was touched by his words...
The hot dog with a coke happened to be served at that moment. Sophia started eating so that she
could avoid his tons of questions.
But what she didn't know was that her thoughts had given her away.
After having breakfast, she was going to pay the bill herself when Drake interrupted, "I said it's on my
treat."
"Alright." She took her money back.
It was fair enough, since last night she made him dinner .
When he saw Sophia was about to drive away, he soon stopped her.
"Aren't you going to send me to my company?"
"I believe there are tons of people who could drive you to work other than Paul."
She was not going to do that?
Drake hurried to open the door and sat inside, "It's on your way."
"It's not."
"Sophia, be responsible for me."
Though Sophia really wanted to kick him out, she drove him to his company anyway.
When they arrived, Sophia pulled over and signaled him to get off.
But Drake took out his phone unhurriedly and called Paul, "Are you ready? Alright, I'm down here."
Before long, Paul came.
Sophia was confused about what Drake was about to do.
Paul came with something like a label. He greeted Sophia first and then stuck the label on the
passenger seat. It read, "Only Available to Drake."
"Are you a child or something?"
Sophia was going to tear it off when Drake said, "Be responsible for me, Sophia."
Then Sophia withdrew her hand.
It was really annoying. She felt as if she had done something wrong and he had the proof of it.
Sophia had no intention to tangle with him. When she was going to leave, her phone rang. It was from
Chloe.
"Okay, I'll be there in a minute."
She gave Drake a glance, "No matter what trick you are playing, it's not going to work."
She turned the car around and drove off.
Paul looked at his boss. Every time when Miss Lawson showed up, he could see a totally different side
of him.
It seemed he was willing to do anything for Miss Lawson.
"Good job." Drake complimented.
"Thank you, Mr. Riley. But are you sure it's going to work?"
"It must work. It's impossible for me to stay with her every minute. She's running out of patience and is
probably ready to having a falling out with me. As long as I could make sure she won't have a chance
to get the birth-control pill within seventy-two hours, she won't be able to stay away from me once she
has my baby."
Paul gave Drake a thumb-up, "Brilliant."
Drake went into the company complacently.
But what he didn't know was that a woman saw everything that happened just now in the distance.
When Sophia finished her work, it was already in the afternoon.
She was dining with Chloe.
"Drake's trying to make you stay at all costs, Sophia. I can't believe he could do things like that."
"He will do anything to get what he wants."
"Then why hasn't he canceled his engagement with Cecelia? He said he could handle it, but he actually
did nothing."
Sophia was indeed not so satisfied with this thing.
It had been two days. Was he lying to her? Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
No. What was she thinking about? Whether it was a lie or not, it had nothing to do with her.
"Did you take pills?"
It was Chloe's words that reminded Sophia, "Not yet. I need to buy it now."
"Go ahead after you finish this meal."
"Alright."
After lunch, Sophia was about to leave when Drake got her into new trouble.
She felt that he would continue to make things difficult for her as long as she turned down his
suggestion.
This time, Sophia didn't get off work until almost eight o'clock.
When she threw herself into her chair, Chloe came. "Dinner together? We can buy the pill on our way.
You only have 24 hours left if we don't buy it."
"Okay, let's go."
Sophia took her bag, and they walked out.
But when they came outside, Drake, just like yesterday, was waiting for her.
"I came to see you, Sophia."
His words implied that he wanted some private time alone with Sophia.
Chloe did not move at all, but she gave Sophia a glance.
She nodded and looked at Drake, "I don't have time today."
"Are you going to have dinner?"
"It's none of your concern."
The eye contact between Sophia and Chloe was a sign that they were going to buy birth-control pills.
Drake, of course, was not going to let them do that.
"How about we three having dinner together? It's on me. I haven't had dinner either."
Chloe held her arm directly, "Thank you, Mr. Riley, but no need."
Was she provoking him?
Drake looked at Sophia, "You should be responsible for me, Sophia."
Sophia kept silent. She knew what he meant. Then she looked at Chloe. "Chloe, you go back first."
"But you can't afford to lose any more time, Sophia."
"I know. I will watch it. Just go."
Quite vexed, Chloe glared at Drake before leaving.
Drake approached Sophia, "Let's go. What do you want to eat? It's on my treat."
"That won't be necessary. We need to talk."
Drake frowned. He knew what he had been doing was pushing her too far. Maybe this time he really
pissed her off.
They found a place nearby. Drake said nothing. He knew all he needed to do was to apologize.
Anything else he did might cause Sophia's aversion of him. In that case, it would be impossible to
change her mind.
"Drake."
