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
Sophie's POVI decided to visit my mother Hannah at the graveyard to give her some flowers."Mommy... I don't know what to do anymore... I don't know who to believe... If you are here you'll probably tell me the truth... I will only believe you..."I quickly wiped the tears in my eyes. "How are you now, mommy? I hope you are doing well there in heaven. I love you so much, mom..."I stayed there for a little bit longer until I finally decided to stand up."I will go back here, mommy..."I was about to finally leave when someone suddenly arrived, holding a bouquet of flowers in her hands.It was Miss Felestine."Sophie...""M-Miss Felestine."She smiled then she walked towards me. She kept down on the ground and put the bouquet on my mom's grave."I would like to thank you, Hannah. I would like to thank you for taking care of my daughter... I've been away from her for so long... I almost thought that she alre
Sophie's POV"May I know where are you going, Miss Sophie?" Venom asked me as soon as she saw me getting ready.I was wearing a simple yellow chiffon dress and my hair was in a bun. I also wore a simple make up. "Lance and I are having a dinner together.""R-Really?""Yeah, he said he's going to tell me something important."Venom nodded. "I'm so happy that you're finally having the courage to start again, Miss Sophie.""What? Venom, Lance and I are just friends.""But that doesn't mean you can't be more than that." She teased me.I just shook my head while smiling when my phone starte ringing."Hello, Lance?""I'm already outside, are you ready?""Yes, I'll go there. Just wait for me.""Okay."Then I hang up the phone. I looked at Venom with a smile on my face. "I'll go ahead now, okay?""Alright Miss Sophie, take care.""See you later."Then I finally walked outside. I r
Sophie's POV"Sophie, are you sure you're going to be alright alone there?" asked Miss Felestine.I still call her Miss Felestine because I still can't address her as 'Mom' or 'mommy'. She said that she can wait until I can finally call her that.I smiled. "I want to practice talking to our company investors. You always go with me and you always save the conversation for me. I think I wouldn't be able to practice my marketing skills with that. I will forever rely on you.""But I like it when you rely on me."She smiled. "Alright then, I would let you talk to our biggest investor today. He would meet you at the conference room at 10 am today.""B-Biggest investor? B-But Miss Felestine, what if I wouldn't be able to convince him?""Then we lose our biggest investor." she just said as if it wasn't a big deal."But---"I trust you, Sophie. You can do it as long as you believe in your self. Trust me, you can do it."I
Sophie's POV"Good morning, Miss Laurens."My eyes widened and the smile on my face vanished as soon as I saw him.It was him.Vincent."Why are you looking at me like that, Miss Laurens? Is there something wrong?" He asked innocently with a playful smile on his face.What is he doing here?"I-I'm sorry but I think you are mistaken. I am waiting for Mr. Dylan Jacobs, not you. Please get out of here." I said to him.He just sat on the chair across mine and folded his arms on his chest. "I am Dylan Jacobs.""Vincent, I am not playing with you. I have a very important meeting with our biggest investor today so please stop fooling around and get out of here." I said with gritted teeth."Miss Laurens, I am not playing with you too. I am Dylan Jacobs. Your biggest investor."I glared at him. "Vincent, I am serious here!!""I only use Vincent Hastings as a mafia boss. But when it comes to real business worl
