Chapter 154 If He was Dead, How Could She Live on?
Cecelia looked at him, "I did nothing, Flynn. Trust me."
Flynn turned to Drake, as if inquiring if that was true, but Drake didn't seem to want to say anything.
"Take her away."
Cecelia was anxious. "You can't do that, Flynn. If we leave, they'll get what they want."
Flynn glanced at Drake and Sophia.
He had been well aware that they were destined to be together and nothing could separate them.
Then he sighed helplessly, "Let's go, Cecelia."
Cecelia shook her head. "No, I can't. Drake's mine."
"Let's go." Flynn patted her shoulder gently.
"I can't. I really can't."
Cecelia had a weird feeling that Drake and she would be over if she just left.
"Cecelia."
"Please, Flynn. You know I've loved Drake ever since I was a child. If I can't be with him, it will kill me. I
mean it."
"Cecelia." Flynn called her again, running out of patience.
"You know I really love him, Flynn." Cecelia grew desperate as she continued her words.
As her elder brother, Flynn also felt distressed for his sister.
But Cecelia should better cut it off with Drake to save herself the pain.
There was no use for her to stay here.
"We should go." He carried her and went away.
"No. Flynn." Cecelia kept screaming, but eventually her voice faded in the air.
Drake and Sophia were left alone.
The dishes had been served.
Drake sat down. "At least have something before you go."
Sophia sat down as well and ate silently.
Both did not say anything. After dinner, Drake escorted her home and left.
Sophia went back to her room, thinking of what Drake told her earlier. She could feel that, with Olivia
continually setting obstacles, he was not having a good time in the Riley family though he looked very
powerful on the outside.
The last car accident would have killed him if she wasn't there...
If he was dead... how could she live on?
...
The next day, Sophia was a bit puzzled that Drake did not show up.
But since she had work to do, she hurried to her company.
It was again in the afternoon after she finished her work.
Just like yesterday, when she was having food, Chloe asked her anxiously, "Almost seventy-two hours
has passed. Did you take the pill or not, Sophia?"
Sophia paused, perplexed, "I completely forgot it."
"My god, what are you thinking about? You really want to have Drake's baby? I admit that he loves you,
and it would be nice if you two can be together, but the point is, you don't want to be with him, don't
you?"
"Plus, you guys only had one night stand, and he's sticking on you like that. You hate it, right? If you
have his baby..."
Sophia frowned and said after thinking for a while, "I was not ovulating that day."
"Sober up, Sophia. You believe that? You are an adult now. Though it would be more likely for you to
be pregnant when ovulating, it is still possible that you will be pregnant during your safe period."
Right.
"I'm going to buy pills after lunch."
Chloe shook her head resignedly when something suddenly struck her, "Recently, Drake has been
showing up before you frequently. Is that a sign that he doesn't want you to take pills?"
Sophia had not thought about it.
If that was true, his intention was more than obvious.
Chloe sighed. "It seems he's not forgotten you and will not give up on you either."
Of course Sophia was aware that Drake had never given up her.
If it had been earlier, she would not give a shit about it, but now, it seemed she wavered.
As if knowing what was on her mind, Chloe looked at her and said, "Are you hesitating, Sophia?"
"I..."
"Forget it, it's not up to me. After all, it's not my life. Though I can give you some suggestions, it is you
who should make the final decision."
Sophia's throat bobbed for a few times and eventually she swallowed what she was going to say.
After lunch, she decided to buy the birth-control pill. No matter it was effective or not, it was within
seventy-two hours, and she was going to take it.
Meanwhile, Drake, who had been busy the whole night at the hospital, received the phone call from
Paul.
"Mr. Riley, Miss Lawson went to the store."
The doctors said to the Prices, "The patient cannot be stimulated anymore. If that happens again, she
might over react again. I hope you can pay enough attention to that."
"Thank you, doctor. We will keep that in mind."
"Mr. Riley?"
Receiving no response for a while, Paul asked again.
"Stop her and get her to my mother's place. Don't let her take pills."
"Got it."
Paul heard the voice on the other end of the phone.
After working for Drake for so many years, he could understand some of Drake's actions and words.
The fact that he made such a decision meant that Sophia had been taking up a place in his heart.
Paul stopped in front of Sophia and said in a respectable manner, "Miss Lawson, Ms. Glass wants to
meet you."
Sophia looked at him meaningfully, "Emma?"
"Yes."
Paul kept cool without showing any expression.
"Wait a minute, I need to but something."
"But it's emergency."
"Don't worry. I will be there after I got what I want."
"Let me drive you there."
"I'm fine."
"Please, allow me. Ms. Glass wishes to see you safe."
If Sophia hadn't figured out Paul's intention by then, it could be said that she learned nothing from Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Emma.
She thought for a while. Paul was just doing what Drake told him. She didn't want to give him a hard
time, so she nodded.
Sophia went into a drug store and went out with the pills.
Of course, Paul knew he must do it secretly, otherwise Sophia would notice something fishy.
So, he opened the car door for Sophia.
While driving, he kept peeping Sophia. When she was about to put the pill into her mouth, he hit the
brake and the pill dropped to the floor.
Paul was relieved and said apologetically, "I'm so sorry, Miss Lawson. I didn't mean it. The car in front
us stopped suddenly."
The pill on the floor was certainly inedible.
