All Chapters of The Arranged Bride: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

 Nick's POV As soon as Sophia left my cabin I slammed my hand on the table. I couldn't believe she tricked me. The rest of the day , I tried drowning myself in work but the only thing I could think of was Sophia. It was around six when I remembered about the dinner. I didn't want to be late and hear a long lecture from Mom. So I decided on heading home.On reaching, I made my way to my room. Keeping my blazer on the bed , I was loosening the tie around my neck when suddenly Sophia came out of the walk-in closet . She had put on a white one shoulder dress and black heels. With a minimal bit of makeup on her face, her look was pretty simple yet she looked absolutely gorgeous.She cleared her throat and I realized that I had been gawking at her. I looked up to see her smirking at me. Averting my eyes I quickly walked over to the bathroom and closed the door behind me. Taking a shower, I

 Sophia's POV When I came to the living room I was stopped by what I saw. The sight in front of my eyes completely broke my heart.Nick was sitting on the sofa with that same blonde girl from his office straddling him. They were sucking their faces off. How could he? The previous night he stole a kiss from me and now he had brought a woman home!?.Ignoring the bitter pain in my heart, I turned to look at Ethan to not find him there. Just then he was coming out of his room with a duvet in his hand which was covering his view. I went up to him. "I brought this. We can cuddle under this while watching the movie." He said with smiling eyes."Ethan, why don't we go out for some ice cream ?" I asked, covering up with a bright smile. He thought for a second and then grinned, nodding.I turned to look at them who were standing and looking at us. Nick was looking away while that

 Sophia's POV The day was really fun for me. My best friends and shopping really took my mind off a lot of things. Ethan was also enjoying his time. He bonded really well with Char and especially Ryan.I never knew that Ryan was so good with kids. While me and Char were shopping they kept each other company like some long lost friends. He even made him promise that he will visit soon.We ended up watching a movie as well. I was skeptical of Nick's reaction about being so late as Ethan was with us. But then, Ethan gave me those puppy eyes which I couldn't have resisted. So I gave in.When we finally reached, Char was too tired to come out of the car. So I carried Ethan to his room while Ryan brought in my shopping bags. He engulfed me in a warm embrace."Soph, remember that whenever you think you can't take anymore or you need anyone, we are always there." He said and kissed my forehead. He never

 Sophia's POVIt has been about two weeks since the trip to the amusement park and things between Nick and I have been fairly nice since then . He doesn't insult me like he used to do . No , we aren't the closest to each other , but we are trying to be friends. Some days we have our dinner or breakfast together while some days, he is either early to office or comes back late. I don't know what caused the change in him but at least it is better than fighting at every instant.I hadn't told Ryan or Char because I was confused whether it was permanent or the jerk version of himself would return. So I just kept quiet.I sometimes can't help but wonder, would he ever leave Christina . I guess he loves her

 Nick's POVToday when I woke up , the first thing I saw was Sophia's face. She looked so peaceful while sleeping. We were facing each other . The sun rays falling on her brown hair and face, made her look so beautiful. I wanted to see her grey eyes that never fail to mesmerize me. Looking at her brought back memories from yesterday.When Christina started with her story , I was really tensed that everyone would believe her and I was right. I could see in Charlotte and Ryan's expression that they were fuming. Even Erica looked away in disappointment while Caleb looked worried for me. But looking at Sophia , I couldn't read her expression. I had never treated her well. Besides , she had seen me with Christina twice. She didn't know that me and Christina were never a thing and I regreted not protesting the day when Christina declared herself as my girlfriend in front of Sophia. But when Sophia didn't believe a single wo
