Sophie’s POV
“Please take care of yourself, Sophie.” dad said to me as he hugged me when they were about to leave already.
I patted his shoulders and smiled. “You too dad, take care of yourself for me please.”
“Please take care of my sister. We won’t be able to look after her again so please take care of her for us.” Seb said to Lance and Sabrina.
“You don’t have to worry about anything because we will always take care of her.” Lance said to them.
I hugged Seb for one last time then he finally left with dad.
“Seb has really grown up, right?” Sabrina said to me as we sat down.”
“You’re right, Sab. And dad too, I think he’s been stressing too much just to save some money for me. Maybe he’s been working a lot.”
“At least they still care about you.”
I sighed. “But I don’t want them to get
Sophie’s POVAfter Lance and I danced, I also asked him to dance with Sabrina because she’s alone. They went to the dance hall while I was just sitting at our table.I almost fell from my chair when my phone suddenly rang. I reached for it inside my purse and I saw Vincent’s name on my screen. I looked around to see if he was there but I wasn’t able to see him because of the dim lights.Why is he texting me when he can just go here and talk to me?I opened his message.‘Go outside.’My brows wrinkled. Go outside? And what would I be doing outside?I didn’t want to go out but the curiosity is killing me so I stood up and walked out of the venue. I looked around but Vincent wasn’t there so I decided to go to the garden instead. The hotel was huge and even the outside and the way to the garden was filled with lighted pathways which made it look romantic. There were also petals of red roses
Lance’s POVI could still remember the day when I first met her. She was wearing a plain white t-shirt and a white-washed jeans. Her hair perfectly flowed above her shoulders and she appeared like a kid with all the other students surrounding her.She was looking around as if she was lost and I couldn’t help myself from staring at her. Her thick black brows were furrowing and she keeps on pouting as if a little kid.At first, I just found her cute and left her there but then when I was finally about to go to the HR office, I saw her again. And that time she looked as if she was about to cry.I walked towards her and I asked her if there’s something that she’s looking for. And the moment that she turned around and met my gaze, I fell in love. I fell in love with those big brown eyes that shine as bright as the stars in the sky, I fell in love with her cheeks that turns easily red when she’s embarrassed and shy. I fell in love
LANCE’S POVI love Sophie. I’ve been loving her ever since the day that we first met but I never told her about it because she’s still my student. And I never wanted her to stay away from me if ever she knew that I like her. I said to myself that maybe I’ll just wait for her to graduate first, I’ll wait for her to finally achieve her dreams then I’ll finally confess to her.But then I suddenly knew that she’s married to my younger brother. My younger who I love the most too. I found out that they were married and my heart automatically broke into pieces. Now, I know I’ll never have the chance to confess to her. They are both important to me.I tried to move on and was about abandon my feelings for Sophie but then…*FLASHBACK*“By the way, Lance.”“Hmm?”“I-I just want to ask something; I hope you won’t mind it.”I looked at her. &ld
Lance’s POVI gently put Sophie in the backseat of my car. She got so drunk and lose her consciousness afterward. She was also crying a while ago and I don’t even know the reason why. I just found her near the hotel’s garden and she was crying.Everybody also went home already and we couldn’t find V either. Sabrina got a call from her mom too so I’ll be the one to bring Sophie home.I couldn’t help myself from wondering why she got drunk and cried so hard a while ago. I wonder what she saw in the garden that made her like that.“Young Master Lance.” Venom welcomed us as soon as I entered Vincent’s mansion while carrying Sophie in my arms.“May I know where Sophie’s room is?”“U-Upstairs, Sir.”I nodded. “I’ll just bring her there.”“O-Okay, Sir.”Carrying Sophie in my arms, I went upstairs going to her room w
Sophie’s POVLance helped me get all my things inside my room and put them inside my bag. Then we went downstairs to put it all inside his car.“Miss Sophie.” Venom suddenly called me.“Venom. What is it?”“Can I go with you, Miss Sophie?”“Huh?”She bit he lip. “I know I owe a lot from boss, but I just think that you are my responsibility now and that I have to take care of you wherever you go. Please let me go with you, Miss Sophie.”I then looked at Lance. “Lance, can we take Venom with us? I actually don’t want to leave her here either.”“Of course, she will go with us.”“Thank you so much, Lance.”Venom and I hugged each other then we were about to go outside and finally leave when Vincent’s car suddenly arrived. He parked it in front of the mansion.I hurriedly ran towards Lance and hid be
Vincent’s POVThe first time that I met Sophie, her beauty immediately stunned me. That’s also the reason I kissed her that time. And she was so surprised I couldn’t stop smiling whenever I remember how bold she was to act like that in front of me.She was the very first woman who did that to me. The very first woman who had the audacity to slap me on my cheek. She was just fortunate because aside from she’s pretty as fuck, her lips tasted like cherry too. I couldn’t take her off my mind since that day and I was still planning on how I could get her to sleep with me the next time that we’ll meet.But then I never met her again until one night when his father, Laurens, offered his own daughter to me as collateral to his debt. I got surprised to see her again, and that made me feel excited. I was excited to play with her and use her to satisfy my own selfish needs.All I wanted was to have her as my property, as someone t
Vincent’s POV“You look incredibly beautiful,” I whispered in Sophie’s ears while we were walking down the stairs at the start of the party.She didn’t respond. She tried to brush my hand off her but I kept on pulling her back.“You should smile, Sophie.” I whispered to her.“And what if I don’t want to smile?”I looked at her. “Haven’t you still forgotten about that?”“Forgotten about what? Why, what did you do? Have you done something wrong for me to get mad at you?” she asked sarcastically.“This is not the right time for us to argue, Sophie.”She looked at me annoyingly. “Then what time is it? Time to flirt with your first love? Then go ahead, flirt with her all you want and I won’t even care.”“What? Soph---She brushed my hand off her and left me there.She hasn’t forgott
Sophie's POVI woke up inside a huge room that I'm not even familiar with."Miss Sophie, you're finally awake!" Venom immediately sat next to me on the bed.I sat up on the bed and looked at her. "Venom.""Miss Sophie, we are here at Sir Lance's house.""Yes, I remember."Then the door suddenly went open and Lance stepped inside. His eyes widened upon seeing me. "Sophie, are you alright? How are you feeling?""I feel fine." I said with a not-so-enrgetic tone of voice.Lance looked at Venom. "Please, kindly help the maids to prepare some food downstairs.""Yes, sir." said Venom before leaving us there inside the room."V has been calling me." Lance started the conversation.Just hearing his name makes my blood boil already."I don't want to hear his name." I said to him."Oh, sorry, I understand.""Lance, can I stay here while I'm looking for a job and have enough money to rent a pad?"He looked at me
