Mafia King’s Innocent Bride

CHAPTER 66: LANCE’S FEELINGS



Lance’s POV

I 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 shines 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 with her beautiful smile that makes my day every single time.

When I helped her find her room, she was so happy and she began jumping like a little kid that I couldn’t help but smile.

*FLASHBACK*

“Can you still remember the first time that we met, Sophie?” I asked Sophie while we were sitting on a bench. I asked her to take a walk with me since I’m already done with my duty and their class has already ended too.

She drank some of her coffee and smiled. “Of course, I still remember that time. I will never forget about that because that was the first time that I saw you. And of course, I almost got lost. I didn’t know where my room was back then, then you suddenly appeared looking like a student too.”

“I saw you looking around as if you were trying to find something. You even looked like you were about to cry although I found you really cute. I walked towards you and approached you. I can still remember how happy you were when you finally found your room.” I was smiling while narrating that because I could still feel the happiness that I felt when I first met her.

“I know I looked so stupid that time but thank you so much for helping me back then, Mr. Jacobs. If you didn’t tell me where my room was, I probably arrived late and my professor would scold me too.”

We both laughed.

“Don’t worry, Sophie. You didn’t look stupid at all, I even thought you look so cute.”

Her cheeks turned red. God, why is she so adorable?This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

“I’m not a puppy to be cute though.”

I looked at her to make sure if she was mad. “I’m sorry Sophie, I shouldn’t have said that.”

“Huh? What do you mean?”

“Did that disappoint you? I mean, when I called you cute?”

“W-What? Of course not, I’m not disappointed. I’m sorry, Mr. Jacobs. I was just being so over-reacting.”

I shook my head. “That’s good to hear. I thought you got mad at me.”

“That would never happen, Mr. Jacobs. Getting mad at you will be the last thing that I’ll do in my life. I will never get mad at someone who’s been so kind to me since my first day here.”

“I’m not as kind as what you think though. I may be selfish at times. And I like it when things go in my way. When I want something, I make sure to get it.” Sophie looked at me as if she was really surprised of what I just said. “Oh, sorry. Did I surprise you again? Hahaha!”

“N-No, I’m just surprised because this is the first time that I heard you talk so seriously.”

I smiled at her. “Because I usually smile, right?”

“Yes. By the way, Mr. Jacobs, can I ask you something?”

“Huh? What is it?”

She looked away and took a deep breath before looking at me again. “D-Do you already have someone you like, Mr. Jacobs?”

My heart suddenly started beating so fast because of what she just asked me. I drank some of my coffee before I looked at her too. “I have.”

I leaned on the bench and looked up at the sky. I could feel her staring at me. “I’ve been in love with her since the first time that we met. She’s a beautiful, matured, smart, and a kind woman. She’s everything that a man could ask for.”

“I-I see.” She suddenly cut off. She looked away before standing up. “By the way, Mr. Jacobs. I need to go home now. My dad is surely looking for me now.”

I stood up too. “Oh, I’m sorry. I understand, shall I walk you home?”

“No need to. Besides, I have someone to pick me up from here anyway.”

“That’s good then. So, shall we just see each other tomorrow?”

She nodded. “Okay.”

I just waited for her to finally step inside a limousine. I watched as her car started moving.

There is a girl I like, Sophie. A girl that I’ve been loving since the first day that I met her.

And that is you.
