Chapter 53 They Had To Be Married
"Let me finish my words before you lose your temper," said Anna calmly.
Lucas stood up, walked to the window and opened the curtains.
At dusk.
The air was filled with chill.
A gust of cold wind swept through the balcony, and fragments of red blood, like Rouges, were scattered all over the ground.
He stared at her, took a deep breath and said, "Okay, what is it?"
"I want to know what kind of girl can attract your attention and make you marry her," she continued, walking up to him
With his thick eyebrows slightly raised, and his face softened, "what's your conclusion?"
"She has passed this test for the time being."
"I know you are always reasonable." Lucas smiled through tears.
"Who was so angry and wanted to blame me just now?" "You've forgotten your mother after getting married." said Anna,
pretending to be angry, as she poked his forehead with her finger.
"How come?" Lucas attentively rubbed his mother's shoulder, "you are always the most important in my heart."
The first trip to the Mo family seemed to be not bad. The Mo couple took a slow tactics toward their son. He didn't show obvious
support or fierce opposition to his marriage, but tried to delay it as much as possible. They knew well about their son's unruly
personality and learned a lesson from Jenny's thing. The more pressure Lucas suffered, the worse the result would be. They
believed that as time went on, his interest in Sophia would naturally disappear.
Sophia didn't know what they were thinking. The moment she left Mo family, she was relieved and more confident in herself and
Lucas' future. She believed that she had passed the examination of her future parents in law and believed that Mo family was not
in danger!
The news that she was engaged to chuck soon spread throughout the whole Qin family.
Maggie was on the verge of going crazy and hated Sophia even more. SOPHIA was the only person who could make her
extremely frustrated so far. Sophia would not only take away Lucas, but also her father and P Group. She would not be
completely relieved unless Sophia disappeared from the world. Of course, Sandra had the same idea. She couldn't let Mandy
and his daughter step on her. So when the two of them worked together, a scheme came up in the dark.
Apart from her, John was also the most painful one in Q City.
He felt downhearted. The only way he could think of was to run away and leave the country which made him despair. He would
heal himself secretly and never come back. But before leaving, he still wanted to see Sophia for the last time.
After receiving the message from John, Sophia had mixed feelings. She still remembered the first time she sent him to America.
At the airport, she cried bitterly. She was so sad. She was afraid that he would never come back. John was leaving again. She
decided not to see him off. Things had changed. It was time to say goodbye to him, her old friend.
As soon as she got off work, she was ready to leave. Unexpectedly, she was told that there would be an international meeting at
7:00 pm. This guy, Lucas, had to go to Europe to torment them.
Therefore, she had to call John.
"It's okay. I'll wait for you to get off work." John's voice sounded resolute. He was going to fly to America tomorrow morning.
There was a sob in Sophia's heart.
It was nearly eleven o'clock at night when the meeting ended.
She rushed out of the office without even picking up the documents.
The bustling street was quiet now with few cars on.
John happened to buy a cup of coffee at Starbucks on the opposite side of the building. Seeing her walking out of the building,
he waved and said, "Sophia--"
When she saw that it was a green light for pedestrians, she trotted over to him.
Suddenly, a roar of engine rose from not far away and broke the silence of the street. At the corner of the street, a minibus
rushed towards them, regardless of the red light.
She turned her head and was overwhelmed for a moment. The van didn't slow down and went straight to her.
At the moment of bumping into her, two big hands pushed her away.
She sat on the side of the road, depressed. Suddenly, she turned around and saw the minibus driving away quickly. And John fell
into the blood not far away.
This time, he was really hit!
"John!" she screamed, climbed, staggered over and held him up. "John! John! John! John. "She wiped the blood on his face,
rubbed his eyelids, and kept shouting. He didn't respond. His handsome face was pale and his breath was very weak. She was
scared to death. She called the ambulance with a trembling voice for the first time in her life and then pulled his lips to give him
artificial respiration.
He opened his eyes, looked at her and vomited a mouthful of blood. The bright res stung her eyes and made her viscera twisting
into a ball. She cried and wiped the blood at the corner of his mouth. "John, the ambulance is coming. Hold on a little longer, hold
on a little longer!"
"Sophia..." He lifted the corner of his mouth and put on a weak smile. "Are you hurt?"
"No, I'm not hurt." She burst into tears.
"That's good!" He raised his hand slightly and seemed to wipe away her tears. "Don't cry I'm fine I'm fine. "
She took his hand and nodded desperately, "you're fine, you'll be fine."
The ambulance arrived soon and the paramedics carried him into the stretcher. Sophia stood by his side holding his hand tightly,
but she didn't dare to let him go. She was afraid that he would leave her if he loosened his grip.
When the doctor wearing an oxygen mask, he waved his hand, as if he had something to say.
"Sophia, I I have something for you. " He raised his hand and pointed feebly at the pocket of his coat. She put her hand into his
pocket, and saw tie's platinum necklace with a diamond shaped pendant on it.
"Open the locket." Said John weakly.
She nodded and opened the pendant. Inside was a photo of John and her. In this photo, they were in the ferris wheel when John
came back from America. She remembered very clearly that he was standing in the ferris wheel, facing the sky, and loudly
yelling at everyone below, "John loves her, and forever loves her!"
"John!" She once again held his hand and placed it on her face. Her tears rushed out like a raging flood.
"I didn't mean anything else. I just hope Sometimes Please remember me. Don't Completely forgot about it. "
"No, John, I will never forget you, never." She shook her head desperately. They had too many beautiful memories. He used to
be a part of her life and the person she regarded more important than herself. She had deeply and unreserved loved him. Even if
she was with Lucas, she would not want to erase these memories.
"Sophia I really want to hold your hand for a lifetime But I'm useless I lost you." He looked at her continuously from slightly closed
eyes. The bright light in his eyes slowly dimmed. "I'm sorry If it can come back again, I will definitely go to the airport and take
you away... " His voice became fainter and fainter and finally disappeared by his lips.
"John--".
