Voltaire's POV
Sophie asked me to meet her. It's been a month now since the last time that I get to see her and I admit that I missed her so much.
Finally, maybe she's no longer mad at me. I will apologize and ask her to live with me again. I will never let her go again. I will definitely explain things to her.
"Did Lucien make a move?" I asked George while I was choosing a coat to wear later when I finally got to the tower where Sophie asked me to meet her.
"He hasn't made any move yet, boss. I think he is plotting something again. Whenever his gang is quiet, that only means that they are planning something."
I nodded. "I know, that's probably the reason. That old man's really taking his time to plan something against me. As if I would let him succeed."
I stood up and looked at George. "I will just go and meet my wife. I will let you handle things here, George while I'm not around."
"I understand, boss."
"Good. I'll get back h
Sophie's POVI took a deep breath before finally looking into Vincent's eyes. "I want a divorce."His mouth went agape. He blinked, obviously trying to make sure if he heard it right. "W-What? C-Can you repeat it? I'm sorry, I don't think I've heard it right.""I want a divorce, Vincent." I repeated, I tried very hard for my voice not to crack. "For one month, I have thought of it deeply. I think it's time for us to finally let go of a relationship that never really existed."I stared at him. I was waiting for him to speak."Sophie, I can explain it all to you. About what you saw in the garden, Monica just forced me to kiss her, but I didn't kiss her, believe me.""No, Vincent. It's not about that anymore. I have realized that there are still things that I want to do. There are some things that I still want to experience and discover in myself.""And filing a divorce would help?" He asked, he sounded as if I was being unfair.I
Sophie's POV"Are you sure about this now, Sophie?" Lance asked me.I smiled as I nodded my head. "Yes, this is the first step. Lance, thank you so much for allowing me and Venom to stay here. We owe everything to you. Thank you so much.""I will get tired of saying this to you since you don't seem to get tired of thanking me too. Sophie, you don't have to thank me anymore. I will always be here for you no matter what happens. And now that you are finally moving out, I just want you to know that I will stay beside you. I am so proud of you."I wiped the tears in my eyes as I hugged him tight. "I don't even know what I would do if not because of you, Lance..."He just pat my shoulders then we moved away from each other. "Shall we go to your new house now?" He asked."Let's go!"I bought a unit in a condominium for me and Venom near the company where I am working as a model. I still go to school but they only give me worksheets to answe
Sophie's POVMiss Felestine stood up, the smile on her face didn't vanish. "Sophie!""G-Good morning, Miss Felestine.""Please take a seat, sweetheart.""Thank you." I sat on a couch and she sat next to me."Miss Thea said that you want to see me?" I asked.Why do I feel so nervous no that I'm in front of her."Yes, I told her that. By the way Sophie, I'm sorry if I didn't tell you in the first place that I am the CEO of this company. I just didn't want you to feel awkward towards me."I shook my head. "You don't have to apologize, ma'am. I understand you and I think it was also my fault since I didn't immediately recognize you.""Actually, I'm so glad that you weren't able to recognize me. I felt comfortable with you since the first time that we met and I don't even know why. By the way, congratulations. You truly deserve to win the competition.""Thank you so much, ma'am. It's such an honor for me to receive suc
Vincent's POV"Where's Lance?" I asked his maid as soon as I stepped out of my car."Sir Vincent, sir Lance went to your parents house today so---I didn't let her finish speaking, I went back inside my car and drove off to our parents' house.This would be the very first time that I will go there. I haven't gone there for so long ever since I moved out from our house.I want to see Lance, I would like to tell him to give Sophie back to me."S-Sir Vincent?" The maids in our house looked so surprised upon seeing me."Where's Lance?""H-He's inside, Sir."With my hands balled into fists, I walked straight to the living room and there, I saw Lance, my mom, and dad busy talking to each other."Lance!" I yelled.All of them turned around and looked in my direction. Lance stood up, I quickly walked towards him and punched him on the face."You fucking bastard!""Vincent!!!"Lance fell to the
Sophie's POV"Venom, do you think my decision is just right?" I asked Venom while we were drinking wine while watching a movie."Miss Sophie?"I looked at her. "I asked Vincent to file a divorce.""You did?""Yeah. He got so furious and told me that he loves me. It seems like he will never allow me to divorce him.""Do you still love him?" She asked.I drank more of my wine. "My feelings for him never changed. You know, the moment that I saw him, my heart started beating so fast. I wanted to hug him, kiss him, I wanted to run into him and tell him how much I missed him but I didnt...""I understand you, Miss Sophie. If that is the case then I think you really have to think first. Don't file a divorce yet or you'll regret in the end. I think you should give boss a chance to prove how much he loves you. If he said that he loves you more than Miss Monica, then I think he is saying the truth. Boss has always been so straightforward
Sophie's POV"You did really great, Sophie. I was really impressed!" said Miss Felestine while we were heading to the company lounge."I was really nervous a while ago. I thought I would start stuttering while presenting." I said.We sat down on the couch. "I didn't actually notice that you were feeling nervous. You look so confident, sweetheart.""You are complimenting me too much, Miss Felestine...."She shook her head. "No, honey. I'm just telling the truth. You did really great and I am so proud of you.""Thank you...""By the way, I saw that handsome guy who sent you here this morning, is he your boyfriend?""Huh? No, he's a very close friend of mine.""Really? But you suit each other. I think your'll make a great couple."I just smiled at her."Sophie, can we go for a dinner next week? I would like to know you even more." Miss Felestine smiled at me."Dinner next week? Sure, Miss Felestine. I'd
Sophie's POV"Sophie, do you think I look good now? Do you think I already look presentable? Ah, why do I feel so nervous?" Dad kept on asking me while we were inside his car. My brother Seb was the one who volunteered to drive.I laughed because of how daddy acted. "Dad, why would you feel nervous? Miss Felestine is a nice person.""I know that honey, but I just can't help myself from getting so nervous. Of course I want to make her see that your dad is a presentable man.""You are a presentable man, daddy. Actually, you look so handsome today."He laughed. "Oh Sophie, you're so good at complimenting me even now.""Sophie, did you tell her that your very handsome brother is going with you too?""Of course I did. I called her last night and told her about you too.""And did you also tell her that she can get take me in and be one of their company models?" He joked."Hahahaha! You Seb!"***"Miss Felestine sai
Sophie's POV"Dad, do you know her? Do you know Miss Felestine?" I kept on asking my dad but he wasn't even saying a thing.I looked at Miss Felestine and I saw tears filling her eyes. "Albert... How can you do this to me? I thought you already died...""D-Died?" I asked confusingly."Anna... W-What---Miss Festine suddenly looked at me. Tears started cascading down her cheeks as she walked towards me. "Is she... Is she m-my daughter?"My eyes widened. "D-Daughter? D-Dad, what does she mean by that? P-Please, tell me what's happening, daddy!" I yelled as tears started streaming down my face too."Sophie....""A-Anna, s-she's your mother..."My mouth went agape. "B-But how did that... I know my mom's face! I even have a photo of her!!""That is not your mom, Sophie...""W-What?""Y-Your mom is Felestine.... She is your Aunt Natalie's sister. W-We had an affair before and you are our daughter. Upon kno
