Chapter 155 Cecelia Committed Suicide
Chapter 155 Cecelia Committed Suicide
By now, Sophia felt that there was no need to hide anything. She put down the bottle in her hands and
said drily, "Paul, sending me to my teacher is only a lie, isn't it? You are here because Drake told you to
watch over me so that I don't take the pill, right?"
Paul was embarrassed. "I'm sorry, Miss Lawson, but the pill is harmful to your health."
"I know, but it's only one time. It's nothing."
Paul peeped at her again, "Miss Lawson, I really don't understand. You and Mr. Riley love each other.
Why are you torturing each other like this? Is it so hard for you to be with each other?"
Sophia looked out through the window silently, "I just want the nice memories stay in the past."
"But if you two be together, it's totally possible for you to create new wonderful memories. After all, you
love each other."
Sophia sneered. "Love? What's its use? Can I exchange it for money?"
Paul pressed his lips together.
Well, that was the weirdest reason he had ever heard.
But as an employee, it wouldn't be appropriate for him to comment on it.
Sophia wanted to get off whenever they passed drug stores, but she was well aware that the reason
why Drake sent Paul to her was to stop her from doing so.
Paul probably wouldn't let her get off. She needed to think another way out.
Emma Glass was already standing at the doorway as if she had known that Sophia was coming.
When she saw Sophia coming close, she walked towards her, "You are here, Sophia."
Though Emma was good to her, treating her like her own daughter, Emma was Drake's birth mother. It
was reasonable that Drake would always be her first choice.
Emma looked at Paul. "Now that she's arrived here safely, you may leave now."
"Goodbye, madam." Paul turned around and left.
As Emma was taking her into the room, Sophia was quite sober minded to realize that there was
actually nothing that Emma wanted to talk with her about, so she didn't ask her anything.
When they entered the living room, Emma kept serving her tea and something else.
Sophia eventually interrupted her, "Ms. Glass, let's just sit down and have a talk."
"Okay."
Emma stopped walking around and sat down.
The atmosphere was different.
Usually, when they met, they had a lot to talk about, but today, neither of them knew how to start the
conversation. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
It seemed a bit awkward.
Sophia, too, had no idea why they became like this.
Sophia said first, "I know what you are going to say, Ms. Glass. Actually, me and Drake..."
But before she finished her words, Emma interrupted her, "Listen, Sophia, I know you think you and
Drake are over. But the situation is different now. Can't you consider making up with him again?"
"We can't pretend like nothing has happened between you and Drake that night. And I believe you
have figured out Drake's intention. He hopes that you don't take the pill."
Sophia didn't expect Emma to be so straightforward.
"I think you know how harmful those birth-control pills would be to your health, Sophia. Though you
might think it's okay to take it for just once, we really hope that you don't take it."
"Of course, as a woman, you must have your own considerations, like what if you got pregnant? If you
do, we really hope you could give birth to this baby and give it a whole family."
Sophia was shocked, "A whole family?"
"Yes, as I have said before, as long as you agree, we'll deal with the Prices. But the circumstance is
quite different now, after all, you slept together. Though Drake keeps asking you to be responsible for
him. But as a man, he should be the one responsible for you whether he likes it or not."
"It's not that I don't want to tell you. Actually, Drake went to deal with this problem yesterday, but
Cecelia killed herself."
It was entirely beyond Sophia's expectation. No wonder Drake didn't show up today.
"Whatever she does means nothing to Drake. He's made up his mind to cancel the engagement."
Sophia frowned. She didn't expect things to turn out like this.
"Sophia, I know as your teacher, I should consider things from your perspective, but Drake is my son..."
"I understand, Ms. Glass."
There was still a trace of guilt on her face, "I hope you can be together, whether you have a baby or
not.
"As for pills, I don't suggest you taking them. If you have a baby, we will go through this together, if not,
think twice about your relationship with Drake. If it's not going to work, let's try to come up with another
way out, okay?"
Sophia kept staring at Emma. She must admit that what Emma said was exactly what was in her mind.
Drake, smart enough to invite Emma as the lobbyist, made if hard for her to say no.
After a long while, she said, "Alright, I'll do as you say."
A smile eventually appeared on Emma's face. She nodded. "Good, Sophia. Thank you."
Sophia nodded. "Can I go back now?"
"Ehn..." she hesitated, "Yes, let me ask Drake to have someone send you home."
"It won't be necessary. I can just call my brother."
Emma nodded.
Honestly, Sophia was hurt.
After all, Emma was the teacher who treated her so well, but she took Drake's side and viewed the
whole thing in Drake's best interest.
Yet, Sophia could understand why Emma did so.
When Bard came, he didn't ask much. After a simple greeting with Emma, he took Sophia home.
When they were on their way home, he felt that something was wrong. "Why did Emma invite you to
her place, Sophia?"
"They don't want me to take the pill. It's harmful to my health."
Bard was vexed. "I see what they're doing. Want you to have a baby for Drake?"
Sophia glanced at him. "Actually, Emma and Drake were nice to me, and they said they would be
responsible for me."
"Responsible? Then why hasn't he canceled his engagement with Cecelia Price?"
"Because Cecelia committed suicide."
