Chapter 84: Disappointed Sofia's POV“Marcus?” I closed my eyes for the second time. I saw him smile a bit. I struggled to think about where I am right now and what I am doing here.He didn't respond; instead, he just simply looked at me, which made me irritated. He then started to walk away. Without a second thought, I followed him curiously.“What am I doing here?” I walked past him and went in front of him.“Answer me!” He didn't answer, and I heard him sigh. Damn it!“Are you the one who made all of those things?” I pushed him, but he's too strong and remains standing.“So you did this?” I threw him the pillow beside me. I have a lot of things to do in our business! I thought after the wedding I could continue working, and yet I'm here!“I did,” he answered, and I furiously looked at him.“What about your wedding?! I thought I would be the bridesmaid?! Why are we here?” I knew he was up to something. My gaze went to the clock, and it was already late for their wedding.“I just ma
Chapter 85: I am not your enemy, HelenaSofia's POV“You can't do this to me, Marcus!” I was too frustrated because of what he said. Screw him!“Yes, I can,” he looked at me teasingly. He even crossed his arms while looking at my reactions.“Don't you dare play with me, Mr. Sterling. I'm telling you. You don't want to be my enemy!” I closed my fist, but he didn't give a damn.“I am not your enemy, Helena. Besides, I brought you here because I wanted to know something,” he stated. His words made me think about something. Is this about my investment? Or about my company? Did he just conduct an investigation into our company?“Look, if this is all about our business?! We don't run illegal businesses, Mr. Sterling. Besides, you can talk to me about it in the first place.” I forced myself to be calmer. I just can't stay here together with him right now. If he's just pretending about his wedding today, then he successfully played it. But I don't think his fiancée also knew about this.“I do
Chapter 86: Our Room?Sofia's POVI am still pondering whether staying here is a good idea. Why doesn't he just let me go so I can show him the evidence? He's making things too difficult.I never imagined things would turn out this way. I never thought I'd spend my time here with him."So, how long do you expect me to stay here?" I asked him as he drank water. I waited for his response, but he remained silent even after finishing.I sighed. I shouldn't have asked. I knew it would take days or weeks, given his behaviour of not answering my questions. This guy is really something else.After finishing our meal, he washed the dishes. Since it's not my job here—considering he abducted me—it's his duty. I still couldn't forget how I ended up here, having dinner with my kidnapper.Such things have never happened to me before; they only happen when Mom is far away.I already miss her. I want to talk
Chapter 87:He's driving me crazy! Sofia's POV I wake up without Marcus by my side. Maybe I was just hallucinating last night due to tiredness. I stood up, wanting to take a shower, so I searched for clothes. Luckily, I found clothes for girls that suited me. I went to the bathroom and hurriedly took my shower. I even saw a toothbrush already prepared. After finishing my daily routine, I sat on the bed, sighing while thinking about how to escape from here. My mom would be worried by now. I looked around for something I could use for communication, but I couldn't find anything. I also searched for my purse, but it’s gone. I don't know where it went; maybe Marcus hid it from me. I decided to leave my room, and there I saw him cooking, his topless body showing his muscles. “Where are my things?” I asked him, but he didn't even glance at me. Right! Just right! “You have to give me your phone now, Marcus,” I to
Chapter 88:Don't laugh!Sofia's POVI woke up feeling hungry, and it was already late at night. My tummy is demanding food. At first, I hesitated to leave the room because I knew Marcus was outside, though I was not sure if he was still awake or asleep.I sighed and touched the door, feeling numb. I hesitated to open it. Damn! What should I do?“Damn, I'm hungry,” I muttered. I didn't know if I should go outside or not. I bit my lip and returned to my bed, sitting down.Damn! What am I supposed to do? I don't want to see that jerk! I lay back on the bed and closed my eyes, my tummy growling.“Can’t you wait for another hour? I just want to make sure he's not around before we go eat,” I said to myself, feeling stupid.I found myself opening the door and sneaking into the kitchen. Damn! I couldn't help but look for food.I walked slowly, making sure not to make noise, step by s
Chapter 89: Bad DreamSofia's POVAfter we finished dinner, I went to the living room. I didn't know why, but I found it a little bit cute that a guy was cooking and washing plates, but it won't change the fact that he was the reason why I was here.At the same time, I'm still worried about my mom and our company. I wanted to know what's happening now with our business, but I couldn't. I wanted to talk to my mom and tell her that I was alright and she didn't have to worry about me, but I couldn't.I'm still thinking deeply about how to get away from this island, though there's no possibility that I could do it alone. No one is here; it's just the two of us, and I can't just swim a few miles from the city. I would die before I could get there.I sigh and look around. I'm still thankful that nothing bad happened to me; I wasn't hurt, and I'm totally fine.I'm still looking for my things, but I can't figure out where they
Chapter 90: Sweet SmileSofia's POVHe was shocked when I pushed him, but I had no choice but to do it. Our position was a bit uncomfortable. I knew he was just being nice to me, but it was wrong of him to hug me. Besides, he already has a fiancée, and hugging me like that was unacceptable.“I'm okay now,” I simply said while wiping my tears. However, I'm confused because of what just happened earlier.“You can go back to the couch now,” I added, but he didn't move or even say anything. I’m afraid to turn around and face him because he's close to me.I could even feel his breath, and it made me uncomfortable for real. He's too close to me.“Marcus,” I called him. I don't know if he's already asleep or just pretending that he couldn't hear anything. The only thing I want is for him to distance himself from me.“I said I'm okay now; you can distance yourself from me
Chapter 91: Funny Sofia's POV When I recovered myself, I suddenly smelled something. “What is that?” I kept on smelling it, and he also noticed something, and there we concluded that the food he'd been cooking was burnt. We both laughed as he rushed to close the fire. “Damn! I forgot,” he embarrassedly said and looked at me. His expression made me laugh even more. “Seemed like we're eating burned food right now,” I joked to him, which made him chuckle. Actually, this was the first time I saw him up close while he was laughing, and it was not fake. It's a real laugh. I also noticed that it changed the way I see him right now. He's not really that cold and serious person; there's also a side of him that is more than I'm thinking of. “I'd rather cook again than let you eat that burnt food,” he said and went to check another stock in the refrigerator. “You don't have to cook another; I'll just eat what you have cooked. Besides, the food on the table is enough to eat,” I told him.
