Drenched in Love novel Chapter 115

While Sophia was still standing there staring blankly, a black Rolls-Royce stopped at the roadside, right next to the Panamera.

"What are you looking at?" asked Stephen as he came close to Sophia and held her waist. He had a look along her sight and found nothing special except for the traffic stream.

Sophia was frightened by his sudden approach. Looking at his face which reminded her of Grace and what Grace had ordered her, Sophia shook her head immediately, "No...nothing!"

Sophia didn't want to argue with Stephen, so she sprang away from his arms and went to her car in a hurry. When she was about to open the door and get in the car, Stephen caught up with her and held her into his arms again.

With his face close to hers, Stephen warned in a sweet tone, "Sophia, You are mine. Don't hook up with any man before I abandon you, remember? Or I will make you hardly wish to live!"

With these words, he let go of Sophia and left by car.

Standing blankly for a moment, Sophia couldn't help sneering, 'See, Sophia, this is just another way he uses to torment you. So don't flatter yourself or drop into his tender trap.'

Both Stephen and Sophia knew that there was only hatred between them. If either of them believed that there was romance between them, his or her heart was bound to be broken.

However, love was uncontrollable.

After running with Stephen every morning for a week, Sophia could now run ten circles at a time after changing into the light sportswear and sneakers.

After Stephen stood at the destination for several minutes, Sophia caught up with him.

Glancing at Sophia, Stephen wiped his sweat with the towel Hannah handed to him and turned back to the villa. Sophia followed him.

After taking a shower and changing the clothes, Sophia found that Stephen was already having the breakfast at the table. Sophia came over to sit straight down opposite Stephen and began to have breakfast.

The breakfast was fried bread sticks, steamed stuffed buns, pies and rice paste.

Sophia was about to take a pie when she remembered that Stephen had said he wanted to kill her with a pie that evening. So she paused and changed the direction of her chopsticks toward the fried bread sticks.

Before taking a full mouthful of the fried bread stick, Sophia found that Stephen was gazing at her. His sight was so focused that she couldn't ignore it.

Sophia looked at Stephen for a moment with a frown and couldn't help touching her face as she wondered if there was something on her face and only found nothing.

While Sophia was in puzzlement, Stephen said, "Come over."

Sophia blinked as if she didn't understand what Stephen said.

Stephen directly stretched out his hand toward her and said again, "Come over."

Sophia still didn't move.

This time Stephen stood up and came over to grab Sophia to the chair next to him. Then he sat down again and began to eat.

Sophia was speechless.

Even though she had lived in the Berry villa for a couple of months and met Stephen almost every day, she was still nervous when Stephen was so close to her that her nose was filled with the faint smell of tobacco from him.

After eating the fried bread stick in her hand and half a bowl of rice paste in a hurry, Sophia stood up and said, "I'm full, Mr. Berry. I'll go to work first!"

Having been living with Stephen for a time, Sophia was no longer so scared of him, but she was still unwilling to sit next to him as she kept in mind that Stephen said he wanted to kill her with a pie. She had almost been poisoned by a pie before, so didn't want to be killed by a pie again.

Stephen stretched out his hand to grab Sophia back to the chair and picked a pie to her mouth with chopsticks.

But Sophia turned her head away.

With a smile, Stephen pinched the chin of Sophia to force her head to turn back and said, "Eat it."

Sophia still refused to open her mouth.

Stephen still smiled and said leisurely, "Be obedient, or you will drive me to the company today."

Glancing at Stephen with a frown, Sophia opened her mouth and took a bite of the pie.

She knew that Stephen was talking about yesterday.

Yesterday morning, she had planned to drive to the Berry Group as soon as possible after the breakfast when Stephen stopped her and asked her to drive him to the company as Daniel took the day off from work and couldn't drive him.

Sophia agreed. However, when she just parked her Panamera in the parking lot, Natalia, who worked in the same office with her, was getting off. Natalia knocked at the window of the Panamera with her arms across her chest and was about to say something with a domineering look when Stephen got off from the back seat of the Panamera.

Although Natalia was the one who was embarrassed, Sophia wasn't relieved as she could feel there were more rumors about her in the company.

Watching Sophia eating a bite of the pie, Stephen smiled and said, "Good! Eat more."

The sweet words from the mouth of Stephen sounded poisonous to Sophia.

After eating the pie, Sophia was thirsty and she reached up to fetch the water glass near her. When she just took hold of the glass, her hand was wrapped by the hand of Stephen.

Sophia blushed in embarrassment and tried to pull out her hand which was held tightly by Stephen.

However, the harder she tried, the tighter Stephen held. Sophia finally failed to pull out her hand.

With his eyelids slightly drooped, Stephen watched how Sophia turned from embarrassed to angry and to decadent and the curvature of the corner of his mouth became bigger.

Hannah, who was standing by to serve, couldn't watch it anymore and left quietly.

Sophia looked at Stephen with angry eyes. Stephen smiled and let go of her hand. Sophia was blank for a moment and immediately pulled back her hand after realizing it.

Stephen held the water glass and put it to her mouth with an obvious intention of letting her drink it.

Glancing at the water in the glass unwillingly, Sophia opened her mouth and drank it.

Consciously or unconsciously, Stephen either spilled the water he carried or didn't allow her to drink it. After drinking the water, the white shirt before her chest got wet and she could see the color of her delicate skin and her underwear when looking down.
