Drenched in Love

Chapter 53 It is Exactly What You Said



Stephen went upstairs to sleep and he told Sophia to sleep too. Sophia looked at the bedroom door and thought of that nightmare, she did not dare to go in.

She originally wanted to sleep in the living room, but once she closed her eyes, she saw the dishevelled female ghost flying to her. Sophia even dare not stay in the living room. In desperation, she crept up to the second floor and sat at the door of Stephen's bedroom. Even sitting here, Sophia did not close her eyes. So she sat with her eyes open until daybreak.

In lunch break time, Sophia picked up the phone and read the message Vincent sent her.

'Sophia, I do not want to say so, but your Mom did die because she was too sad about you.' Sophia, go less to the cemetery. Your mother complained against you when she was in sickbed.

This sentence was like a very sharp fingernail, ruthlessly seized Sophia's heart, let her out of breath. Tears clouded her eyes. Sophia bit lips and forced herself not to cry.

No. No, Certainly no.

Sophia told herself in the heart. After a while, she made up her mind that after work she would go to see Vincent and ask him.

As Sophia was sad, Natalia came over and accidentally hit Sophia's arm. Sophia frowned and raised her head.

She said nothing, but Natalia could not help laughing out loud, "Sophia, what is this in your hand? A phone?" Natalia called to everyone, "Come and have a look! Take a look at Sophia's mobile phone, isn't this the phone used by the elderly? Sophia, how old are you? Why do you use such a bad phone?!"

When she cried out, a crowd of people surrounded her.

Sophia frowned, clenched the mobile phone in the hands and said nothing biting her lips. Hazel darkened her face, "What are you looking at?! Haven't you all seen it before? What a fuss!"

After the crowd dispersed, Hazel comforted Sophia, but Sophia shed tears. Hazel felt sorry and said, "Sophia, don't put that in heart!"

Sophia didn't care about that. She just thought of her mother and felt sad.

After work, Sophia drove to the door of the Adams Group. Not long after, Vincent came out of the company.

"Sophia, how did you become like this?!"

In the coffee shop next to the Adams Group, Vincent holding Sophia's shoulders asked. Vincent was surprised, because recently Sophia became too thin. Whoever saw Sophia showed this expression. Vincent groped up and down holding Sophia's arm, as if he was checking how much weight she had lost.

Sophia frowned and tried hard to pull out her arms from his hand.

Vincent refused to let go. Seeing that she struggled, Vincent suddenly held her into the arms, "Sophia, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I didn't take care of you. It's all my fault! It's all my fault! Sophia, I am sorry!" Vincent sobbed, it seemed that the next moment he would cry out.

As her tired body fell into his arms, Sophia's body suddenly softened and she felt sad, after all, she had loved this man. She was willing to trade her career and reputation for him.

She got tears in eyes. As she was to embrace his waist, her hand stopped in mid-air.

It was not in school, it was not when they fell in love, and it was not after their quarrel.

Sophia suddenly woke up. She pushed Vincent hard and said, "Let me go!"

Vincent wanted to hold her again, but he gave up when Sophia struggled. He pulled the chair, let Sophia sit down, and he sat down in the opposite.

Sophia got straight to the point, "Vincent, how did my mother die? I want to know the details."

Vincent's face became bitter, "Sophia, since the thing had happened, don't......"

"Tell me!" Sophia accentuated tone.

Vincent said, "Sophia, your mother really carelessly slipped down the stairs. At the time..."

"At that time, your mother woke up from a nap, heard you call her downstairs, so she went to look for you. When she went downstairs, accidentally she fell down the stairs."

Ella pushed open the door and said while walking to Vincent.

Seeing Ella, Sophia's pupil shrank.

Ella held Vincent's arm, "Vincent, is that right?" She said to Vincent, but looked at Sophia.

Vincent took a look at Ella and wanted to pull his arm back, but Ella held him tightly. He failed and could only give up.

Ella shook Vincent's arm and said with a smile, "Vincent, am I right? You told me how Sophia's mother died."

Vincent's face turned pale. Looking at Sophia, he said, "Yes, you are right."

Ella smiled and leaned forward to kiss Vincent.

Seeing that, Sophia felt disgusting: a moment ago Vincent showed concern to her, like when they were still in school, after a quarrel, he wanted to coax her. The next moment, Ella came, they showed they were intimated. Sophia wanted to leave, but she could not leave, she still had things not clear.

Sophia looked aside and said in a hoarse voice, "I was in prison at that time, not at home, how could my mother hear me calling her?"

Ella said, "Because you were in prison, your mother was too sad and she often heard your voice at home and sometimes she saw your figure. That's why your mother accidentally fell down the stairs."

"Is that so?" Sophia asked again in a weak voice. She didn't look at Ella, but Vincent.

Vincent looked paler than before. He could hardly speak under Sophia's gaze.
