Chapter 55 Shall I Spend the Night with You
Stephen might have noticed her bad mood, in the next few days, he did not arrange any work to her, even Hannah cooked.
During the day Sophia drove her car the Berry Group to work, and went back to the villa after work. Stephen did not give her work, so she took the initiative to clean up.
Sophia had to work until one or two o'clock in the morning every night. When she got tired, she went back to the bedroom. Because she was tired, as she lied down and closed her eyes, she could soon fall asleep. But even so, she still had nightmares at night. It was the same eerie green that seemed to float in the air as the night before. An eerily rhythmic, sullen and resentful tone.
Again and again she ran out of the bedroom, again and again was chased after that female ghost. When the female ghost appeared, she fainted.
She remembered that she had run out of her room, but she had always woken up in her own bed. Just when she thought it was really just a nightmare, she found several bruises on her body. The bruises were exactly where her body touched the ground when she fell. It was not a dream.
Sophia's heart felt freezing.
She could not stay here any longer, she thought. .She began to contact Vincent constantly, wanted to know Calvin's address and contact information from him. She wanted to see her father and brother again, and then she would die to pay her mother's life. But for several days, whether she called or sent a text message, Vincent did not respond.
When it was time to get off work again, Hazel packed things up and patted Sophia's shoulder, "Sophia, have you finished your work? Let's go together."
It was just pat, but Sophia got strong reaction. She jumped up from her chair, but her body hit the desk, her legs became weak and she slid down from the chair.
The office was quiet, and then Natalia laughed out loud.
"Leave them alone!" Hazel held Sophia stand up. Looking at her pale face, Hazel could not help but ask, "Sophia, what's wrong with you?"
Sophia shook her head and forced a smile do that Hazel would feel relieved.
Actually, she had been jittery lately. Because of the nightmare, the slightest sound, or some strange shape, would made her feel that the dishevelled female ghost was coming from behind. "Sophia, let's go together." Hazel said again.
Sophia declined, "I still have work to do. You go first."
Hazel nodded, all right. They did not find that Natalia deliberately stopped at the door and turned to look at Sophia.
When it was about eight o'clock, Sophia locked the door of the office and was to leave.
Instead of driving, she wandered aimlessly around the streets. She didn't want to go back, and she didn't dare. Whenever she went back there, she felt that a female ghost was haunting her. She found a KFC, pushed the door and went in. She didn't order anything but sat on the couch by the window. She just wanted to sit here and rest for a while, but she soon fell asleep. 9 p.m.
Sophia woke up. She was woken by the ringing of her mobile phone. Apart from being cheap and big enough, the phone for the elderly was loud, like a loudspeaker.
Sophia picked it up. It was Stephen, who said on the phone, "Come back at once. Don't let me send someone to arrest you."
Sophia could only go back.
That night, of course, it was the same nightmare. She again got fainted in the living room and woke up in her bed.
Sophia pulled up her sleeve and looked at her elbow: a new bruise.
At work, Sophia suddenly stopped typing. She remembered the night before.
Last night she fell asleep by accident in KFC. When she fell asleep, she had no more nightmares!
"Hazel!" Sophia suddenly seized Hazel's hand, "Do you mind if I stay over at your home for the night?"
Hazel nodded.
After work, Sophia sent a message to Stephen and then turned off her phone.
Hazel proposed to have hot pot, Sophia agreed. Two people went to the supermarket to buy food and went home carrying bags.
Hazel opened the door. Hazel paused for a moment, and a young man in a casual shirt and trousers came over.
"Brother! You come at the right time! We're going to have hotpot, you can join us!" Hazel said to Emmanuel happily.
Emmanuel ignored Hazel and his sight fell on Sophia.
Sophia was in the most common clothes, with kitten heels on her feet. She had no make-up on her face, which was pale from poor sleep, but it did not disguise her beauty in the least.
Beauty WAS beauty, even if the beauty had bad skin and mental state, she was outstanding.
Seeing that Emmanuel looked at Sophia, Hazel lifted her arm to touch him, "Brother, this is Sophia Carter I mentioned a lot and she helped us out last time!"
"So it's you!" Emmanuel invited Sophia in and said, "Sophia...No! Thank you for helping me, Miss Carter! I've been thinking of finding a chance to thank you face to face, but Hazel said you were busy and didn't have time, so I didn't have a chance to thank you. Now that you have come, let me thank you!"
Sophia smiled and greeted him.
Three people of the same age gathered together, they chatted happily. Emmanuel went down to the supermarket to buy a case of beer and opened all the bottles. "Here! Let's get drunk tonight!"
It was the happiest night for Sophia since she was out of prison. In persuasion of Hazel and Emmanuel, Sophia drank a lot of wine.
By eleven o'clock in the evening, both of them were a little drunk. Hazel and Sophia walked into the bedroom holding each other. Emmanuel packed up, took a blanket and was to sleep on the sofa.
When Sophia woke up in the next morning, Sophia carefully thought about what happened last night. She didn't have nightmares last night. She pulled up her sleeve and looked at her arms. The bruise on the arm was caused the night before yesterday, and there was no new bruise last night.000000000000000
