Chapter 87
Behind the door, Sophie leaned against the door weakly. She held her forehead in disbelief. She really wanted to kill Evelyn just now.
It was because Sophie was too afraid to return to the past.
It was not easy for Sophie to stand up again. She did not want to go back to the past!
Evelyn should never have learned from Laura!
By pushing her, Evelyn had touched Sophie’s bottom line!
Sophie could not help but think of the dark days in the Bourn family. She felt cold all over.
At this moment, her phone suddenly rang.
Sophie was shocked.
She suddenly picked up the phone and realized that it was a video call from Roger.
For some reason, she felt a little relieved when she saw Roger’s profile picture flashing. She could not help but press the answer button.
The next second, Roger’s face appeared on the screen.
Although his eyes were still lifeless, they were so deep that they seemed to be able to absorb her soul through the
screen.
For a moment, Sophie was in a daze and did not say anything..
After a moment of silence, Roger sensed that something was wrong. He immediately asked in a low voice, “Why aren’t you saying anything? Did something happen?”
Sophie did not expect him to be able to sense it.
For some reason, her eyes felt a little sore.
However, she still shook her head and smiled bitterly. “No, nothing.”
Roger asked in a deep voice, “I’m your husband. No matter what happens, you can tell me. Are you unhappy at school?”
Dillon only reported to him at night. He had just found out that Sophie had been troubled by the teacher in school. He called her immediately to comfort her, but he did not expect Sophie to look so unhappy.

Chapter 87
“No, I’m very happy in school.” Sophie realized that she sounded too disappointed and quickly perked up.
“Habourland University is very good. The principal and teachers are not bad, and I like the classes very much. It’s my first day there, and I like the feeling of being free.”
She had never been to university. During her middle school exams, she studied hard every day. She was not as free as she was in university.
nor’s eves darkened.
Seeing that her disappointment really did not seem to have anything to do with the school, Roger’s eyes
“If it’s not because of school, then your family must have made you unhappy. Who is it? Evelyn?”
He could feel that Marcus, Bianca, and her brothers cared about Sophie very much. She had just returned home, so they would definitely dote on her.
The only person who could make Sophie unhappy was Evelyn.
Seeing that she could not hide it, Sophie could only smile helplessly. “Your guess is quite accurate.”
As she spoke, her chest relaxed a little. She returned to the bed with her phone and said, “I almost got pushed downstairs by her just now.”
Upon hearing this, Roger’s eyes flashed with coldness. “Evelyn pushed you?”
How dare Evelyn touch his wife?
It seemed that the lesson he taught her last time was still not enough!
Seeing that he was agitated, Sophie quickly comforted him. “Yes, but I also pushed her. I even almost strangled her
to death.”
Sophie sounded a little guilty when she said the last few words.
Roger immediately sensed something, and his heart ached. He comforted her in a low voice, “I know what kind of life you used to lead. It’s normal for you to want to kill her after she hurts you like this. If it were me, I wouldn’t be able to tolerate it either.”
Roger’s words comforted Sophie a lot, but she asked hesitantly, “You aren’t afraid of me? I felt that I was so scary back then. I felt that I really wanted to kill her at a certain moment.”
Roger smiled. “Everyone has moments when they want to kill someone, but you’re kind. You didn’t really kill her. If you were really evil, you wouldn’t have the time to blame yourself here.”
Sophie was defeated by his logic. She could not help but frown and smile bitterly. “What you said seems to make sense. Indeed, everyone has moments of breakdown when they want to kill someone. I’m also nalve and kind. I didn’t actually kill her.”
The depression in her heart finally relaxed at this moment.

Her hands were not so cold anymore.
“You’re smiling, aren’t you? Smile more often. There’s nothing wrong with that,” Roger said calmly, as if he was an expert who had achieved enlightenment.
This serious and old–fashioned look made Sophie frown. “You’re pretending to be an expert again.”
Roger smiled. “I’m an accomplished person. Otherwise, I would have killed thousands of people in this house.”
Sophie fell silent for a moment.
Yes, Roger was much sadder than her in that house.
At least her family loved her.
However, in the Nicholls family, it was Roger’s own family who schemed against him.
“Sigh, now that you mention it, I don’t even want to go back to the Nicholls family anymore. It’s so comfortable to be in the Dawson family.” If she had food and drinks and could go to school, how happy would she be every day?
‘Then enjoy it while it lasts, because you’re already mine and will be back soon,” Roger said domineeringly, raising his eyebrows.
Sophie pursed her lips. “We haven’t even chosen a wedding date. What’s the hurry?”
Roger smiled. “Are you urging me to arrange a wedding date?”
Sophie blushed instantly. “Don’t talk nonsense. I’m not rushing you!”
However, Roger smiled smugly. “Norman has already chosen a date for me today. It’s on the 22nd of the month.”
“The 22nd?” Sophie calculated the time. It was only half a month away.
“Isn’t this too fast?” Sophie pursed her lips.
She had not spent enough time at home.
‘I’m still a student. Logically speaking, I should be staying at my parents‘ house.”
Roger smiled. “There are more people getting married in university. Living with your husband is the way to go.”
When Sophie heard the word ‘husband‘, she was not used to it.
“We haven’t had a wedding yet. You’re not my husband yet!”
Roger could not help but tease Sophie when he saw her blush. “Alright, you don’t have to call me your husband. I’ll call you my wife then.”

Chapter 87
“Don’t!” Sophie had goosebumps all over her body!
“Even if we’re married, don’t call me wife! Just call me by my name!” Sophie was so flustered that she could not control herself. The thought of the word wife made her feel uncomfortable.
“Alright, Sophie Nicholls.” Roger deliberately said the last word in a bewitching manner.
In an instant, Sophie’s hair stood on end!
Roger had clearly called her name!
But what did he call out?
Why was it so mushy?
“You’d better shut up! Don’t call me!” What was going on with Roger recently?
Why was he always teasing her!
His words were so mushy that it made her heart itch!
“Why? Are you shy?” Roger smiled and continued to tease Sophie.
Sophie could not take it anymore and could only shout, “I’m not! I just feel too mushy and disgusting! I’m ignoring you! I’m going to sleep!”
With that, Sophie was about to end the video call.
Roger could only bid farewell. “Alright, have a good rest. Good night, Sophie Nicholls.”
He said the last word flirtatiously again.
Sophie’s nerves were instantly snapped. She grimaced and hung up the phone!
