Sophie’s POV
“This is my parents’ house; I came here to visit them today.” Lance said to me with a huge smile on his face.
My mouth went agape. “Y-Your paents’ house? Y-You mean M-Mrs. Hastings is your mom?”
“Yes.”
“Oh my God…” I mumbled to myself.
“How about you Sophie, may I know why you’re here?” he suddenly asked me.
I looked at him. “Err… actually—
“Lance!”
Mrs. Hastings suddenly appeared and came running to Lance and hugged him. “Oh my God, Lance I missed you so much!”
“I missed you too, mommy.”
I was just looking at them while they were hugging each other. They seem to be close to each other.
“Are you hungry? I asked the chef to cook your favorite food today.” Mrs. Hastings said to Lance.
“Really? Sure! I missed eating here too.&rdq
Sophie’s POV“Where have you been?”I was surprised to see Vincent sitting on my bed as soon as I opened the door of my room.“W-What are you doing inside my room?” I asked.“Waiting for you.”He stood up and walked towards me. “You didn’t answer any of my calls. Didn’t I tell you to go home early? Are you really that bull-headed?”“I’m sorry, I didn’t notice the time. I just went to the mall with my best friend.”“Oh, really?”“Y-Yes. By the way, I’ll be going to Sabrina’s house, too. I’ll be helping her cook for a party for her mother.” I said.He stared at me for a while with furrowed brows. “Do you think I believe you? Are you seeing some other guy? Do you have a boyfriend, perhaps?”“H-Huh? N-No, I don’t have one. I-I’m telling you the truth.&rdquo
Sophie’s POV“Sophie!”I turned around as soon as I heard Lance’s voice.My heart started beating so fast as soon as I saw his face. He was wearing a black turtle neck with a pair of black jeans, wearing his signature black round glasses.Now that I look at him, he somehow resembles Vincent.Wait, why am I thinking about that jerk?He almost touched me down there last night. Good thing I was able to remind him that he only owns my thigh and not my soul.I should make sure that I would win the next game or else he would be able to conquer the other part of me that I’ll never want to give up to him.“Where’s Sabrina?” I came back to my senses when Lance asked me.“I-I don’t know. She’s not answering any of my calls. Maybe she’s already on her way here.”
Sophie’s POVLance and I ended up in a coffee shop.“Wow! This coffee looks so beautiful!” I cooed as soon as the barista put our order on the table. It has a heart-shaped latte art made from steamed milk.“Yeah, they do really have such creative baristas. I even heard that one of them joined an international contest last year.”“Really? Is that true? That’s amazing then!”He nodded. “And they serve delicious croissants too. I usually go here whenever I want to stress out.”“That means you’re stressed right now?” I asked him.“Not anymore because you’re here already.”Heat immediately captivated my whole face. I just sipped some of my coffee while averting my gaze from him.He’s actually the same with Vincent in that part. They are both so bold and outspoken. We
Vincent’s POV“Where’s Sophie?” I asked Venom as soon as I entered the mansion.“She said that she went to her best friend’s house, Sir. She also said that she already informed you about it.”I nodded. “So she really went there, huh? For sure it’s not even her best friend that she’s meeting up with. She kept on stuttering when she told me about it last night.”Venom didn’t say anything.I don’t have anything to do today that’s why I went home early. I was actually planning on playing around with Sophie all day just to keep myself entertained but looks like she’s entertaining herself by being with somebody else.I think she’s having so much freedom and I don’t like it.My phone started ringing. “Vincent.”“Boss, we already found him.”
Sophie’s POVLance looked alternately at me and Vincent. His brows were furrowed. “V, what are you doing at my student’s house?”“Student?”“Yes, Sophie is my student. She studies in the school where I work as a doctor.”Vincent looked at me so I averted my gaze.My heart keeps on beating so fast.Why did I even allow Lance to go here?“She’s my wife.” Vincent suddenly said.Lance’s eyes widened. “W-Wife? A-Are you kidding me? Sophie is still young.”“She’s my wife, you can even ask it to her.” Vincent said then he looked at me.I bit my lower lip as I tried to find the right words to say. Lance looked at me. “Is that true, Sophie?”“Y-Yes…” I almost mumbled.Lance’s mouth went agape.Of course he would be shock after knowing that his young
Sophie’s POV“Miss Sophie, Sir Lance already left.” Venom said to me as she opened the door of my room.I didn’t take the blanket off me. “Okay…”“I will go now, Miss Sophie.”“Okay…”I don’t know why but I don’t feel good after what just happened. Lance finally knew about my marriage with Vincent and that also means that we’ll be having much smaller time with each other. For sure he’ll be more distant to me now since his brother is my husband.I don’t want him to stay away from me…Him, knowing that I am already married to somebody only validates the fact that we don’t have a chance to be together anymore. I know it’s wrong for me to feel this way but I feel so sad and hurt.Lance is my first love and the one I love until now. I don’t want to be away from him, I want to be with him f
Sophie’s POV“What?! Mr. Jacobs already knew about your relationship with Vincent?!”I nodded as lay my head on my desk. “And now I don’t know what kind of face should I give him. I’m so embarrassed because I hid it from him. For sure he thinks that I’m trying to hit on him and his brother.”“Well, I don’t think he cares about it.”“What? Oh well, he already has a girlfriend so why else would he care about whether I am married or not?”“Poor Sophie. Well anyway, you already have a strikingly handsome and hot as hell husband so there’s no need for you to be sad.”And the mention of his name already brought the heat to my cheeks as soon as I remembered what happened last night. “A-About that…”“What?”“S-Sab, w-we almost did it…” I whispered after looking around us.And as usual,
Sophie’s POV“Vincent, I will just go out with your brother today.” I said to Vincent while we were having our breakfast.He wiped his mouth with a napkin, then he looked at me. “What for? Is that a date?”“How I wish.” I said.It became casual for the two of us to talk about his older brother ever since he found out that Lance is actually the man that I love. He didn’t get mad and care maybe because he doesn’t really care and we both know that we both don’t have feelings towards each other.Actually, I became more comfortable around Vincent ever since that night happened. I mean, that night when we almost did it. Although I still haven’t asked him about that Monica that he mentioned that night.“Sure, he’ll take care of you anyway. Just make sure that you won’t allow him to touch any of my properties.”“I’m sure he wouldn’t wan
