Mafia King’s Innocent Bride

Sophie’s POV

I woke up inside a huge room that I’m not even familiar with.

“Miss Sophie, you’re finally awake!” Venom immediately sat next to me on the bed.

I sat up on the bed and looked at her. “Venom.”

“Miss Sophie, we are here at Sir Lance’s house.”

“Yes, I remember.”

Then the door suddenly went open and Lance stepped inside. His eyes widened upon seeing me. “Sophie, are you alright? How are you feeling?”

“I feel fine.” I said with a not-so-enrgetic tone of voice.

Lance looked at Venom. “Please, kindly help the maids to prepare some food downstairs.”

“Yes, sir.” said Venom before leaving us there inside the room.

“V has been calling me.” Lance started the conversation.

Just hearing his name makes my blood boil already.

“I don’t want to hear his name.” I said to him.

“Oh, sorry, I understand.”

“Lance, can I stay here while I’m looking for a job and have enough money to rent a pad?”

He looked at me then he shook his head. “You don’t have to look for a job anymore, Sophie. You can stay here no matter how long you want. I promise I won’t mind it.”

“Thank you so much, Lance.”

“You don’t have to thank me, Sophie.” He sat up straight. “By the way, if you don’t mind me asking, what are you planning to do now?”

I heaved a sigh. “I just don’t want to see Vincent. Please if he ever try to go here and take me back, please don’t let him…”

“But Sophie, he’s still your husband.”

“Please, Lance….”

Lance hesitation for a while. “I understand but you have to understand that you can’t just hide here forever. You need to face him too and talk about things.”

“I don’t even want to see him ever again.”

“He’s still your husband, Sophie.”

I shook my head. ” I want a divorce.”

His eyes widened. “Sophie, don’t say things like that. You know it’s not that easy to do that. You are married, you need to talk things out first.”

“We don’t have anything to talk about anymore, Lance. Vincent loves Monica and I’ve been just someone who serves as a hindrance between them.”

“That’s not true, Sophie. Believe me, I can see that V really loves you.”

“You are just saying that to make me feel better. I saw him kissing Monica in the garden during my debut, how will I even interpret that?”

Lance didn’t speak anymore. “I’m so sorry for what happened, Sophie.”

Vincent’s POV

I immediately pushed Monica away when she tried to kiss me.

“Monica, what do you think are you doing?!”

“What? What’s wrong with what I just did? Didnt you like it too?”

My brows furrowed. “What are you saying? I am a married man, Monica, you already have my brother!”

“But I’m the one that you love, right? I am the only woman that you ever love in your life!”

“What is wrong with you, Monica? I think you’re already drunk.”

She shook her head. ” I am not drunk, Vincent! I know what I’m doing! I’m the one that you love, and I love you too, Vincent. I’m so sorry for taking this long to admit my feelings for you. Believe me, Vincent, you are the one that I Iove and not Lance….”

“No… no… that cannot be, Monica.”

“That’s the truth! That’s why you need to stay away from Sophie. Let’s just live together.”

“I love Sophie, Monica. Yeah, I know I was so crazy over you before, but everything has changed when Sophie came. She’s the one that I love now. She’s the only one that I want.”

“No, that’s not true, Vincent! That’s not true!”

“That’s the truth, Monica. I’m so sorry.”

I was about to finally walk away but then Monica held my hand and tried to pull me back so I quickly brushed her hands off me. “Please, stop this, Monica. I still need to find my wife e. Please excuse me.”

“No, Vincent! I’m the one that you love! No!”

***

“Damn it!” I yelled when Lance and Sophie left.

Sophie saw it when Monica kissed me in the garden of that hotel where her debut was held. I didn’t even know that she was there already.

I walked inside the mansion and saw the maids.

“Did Sophie bring all of her clothes with her?”

“She brought all of her clothes, sir. But she didn’t bring any clothes from the closet.”

I nodded then I went upstairs straight to Sophie’s room.

I opened the door and saw how tidy the room was. She used to clean her own room and she never asked any maid to clean it for her.

She didn’t really bring any clothes from the closet.

Sophie’s really one of a kind. I’ve never seen such bold woman like her. She changed me, she changed my world.

Way back then, my whole world revolved around Monica that’s why I didnt know what to do when she left.

I didn’t care about anything, I just focused on my own business and making more money but I didn’t really care at all. I didnt care about anyone. But when Sophie came, everything has changed. I finally have someone I want to protect.

But now, look what I just did. I hurt her and I don’t even know if she can still forgive me.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
