My Sweet Wife

Chapter 206 – Photogenic Effects



Sophie Sabastian wanted to open her mouth to ask him, but not wanting to open her mouth to talk to him, she turned around and went back to her room anyway.

Nestled in her room, she ran around the gym and listened to music, she had gained a bit of weight lately, and for her on-camera results, she had to stay in shape not to go over 90 pounds.

Winifred, the maid, looked over to Leonardo Cooper sitting on the living room couch and inquired, “What would you like for dinner, sir?”

“Go ask the young lady.” Leonardo Cooper puts down the tablet in his hand and looks in the direction of the fitness room.

The maid Winifred ran over to ask Sophie Sabastian, who frowned and wiped the sweat from her body, and after a while said, “I don’t eat dinner, you don’t have to make my portion, I’ll just have a little fruit later.”

The maid was in a difficult position, so is she going to ask Mr. again?

Obviously, they were both at home, but it was as if a chuhan river boundary had been drawn in the house, neither of them spoke, there was no communication whatsoever.

This atmosphere in the house was really weird.

Sophie Sabastian was running and her cell phone called, it was Tishon, she put it to her ear and answered it.

Tishon’s anxious voice came from the other end of the phone, “Sophie, your dad is dying, come to People’s Hospital quickly.”

“Okay, I’ll be right there!” Sophie Sabastian grabbed her clothes and car keys.

Tishon on the other end of the phone was still talking, “Sophie, I didn’t reach you before, so I contacted your mom, and your mom’s current condition doesn’t look very good either.”

She got anxious angrily, “Why are you looking for my mom, my mom she has a heart condition!”

“I …”

“Tishon you watch my mom, I won’t forgive you if anything happens to my mom! I’ll be right there now …”

In twenty minutes time Sophie Sabastian arrived in the hospital with her dad still in the resuscitation room.

“Mom, are you okay?” Sophie Sabastian saw her mom’s face as white as paper, her hand covering her heart, she was panicked and scared looking at it.

Sophie’s mom covered her heart and breathed hard, “Why didn’t you tell me about your dad’s car accident?”

“Mom, your health condition, I also dare not tell you …”

“No wonder I can’t contact your father these days, it’s never been like this before, so it’s your father who had a car accident.”

The doctor took the critical notice and handed it to Sophie’s mom, with a serious and heavy face, “It is now necessary to do a craniotomy immediately, the current level of our hospital now, to a great extent, can not guarantee the success of the operation.”

“What then? If the surgery is unsuccessful, the person will be lost ah …” Sophie’s mom murmured helplessly.

All of a sudden, she looked like she had aged many years.

The doctor spoke again, “That is to be able to invite experts in this field, over, can greatly improve the success rate, the current cardiology top talent are in the United States.”

Listening to what the doctor said, Sophie’s mom was not raising her hopes at all and was not happy about it.Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

Sophie Sabastian knew what her mom was thinking, they didn’t even know the doctors here, how could they have the means to go abroad to bring them here.

It was at this point that one person came to her mind: Leonardo Cooper.

When the doctor was urging her mother to sign, suddenly Trent Stone rushed over, he looked at Sophie Sabastian and said, “Young lady, as for the doctor, the president has already ordered to go and make arrangements, the surgery is scheduled for tomorrow, please don’t worry about it, young lady.”

“Uh-huh.” Sophie Sabastian was instantly relieved.

See how capable Leonardo Cooper is, for her, when she has no idea what to do, as long as Leonardo Cooper has these three words, she can get it done.

Allen Sabastian looked at Sophie Sabastian and said, “Sophie, it’s a good thing you married Leonardo Cooper, I’m so happy for you that you did.”

“We, The Sabastian family, and your father are all thanks to Leonardo Cooper this time, you have to thank him well and be nice to him, understand?”

Being nice to Leonardo Cooper wasn’t the hard part, the hard part was that they’d been in a cold war lately.

To end the cold war one of them has to bow down first, she didn’t do anything wrong, why should she bow down first?

But … did have Leonardo Cooper to thank for this one.

In the hospital to guard Allen Sabastian after surgery, through the dangerous period, but still in a coma, Sophie Sabastian left the hospital, is the first to go to the TV station, because she frequently leave, the leadership is a little upset, she went to the radio station, and rushed to start working, she did not have on hand to interview the news, it was Raina Sabastian directed to do odd jobs for the day.

With a busy day ahead of her, Sophie Sabastian smiled to herself, she’d been pretty bad lately, not a single thing in her life had gone her way.

At the end of her shift, Sophie Sabastian went out from the station, the black Maybach at the entrance made her stop her gaze.

The license plate number she recognized as Leonardo Cooper’s car.

Sophie Sabastian walks up to the car and the door is opened by Trent Stone.

She got in and looked over at Leonardo Cooper and asked, “Why did you come to pick me up and not give me a call?”

“Stopped by on the way.” Leonardo Cooper looked at her, his voice light, not the slightest emotion audible, like it was honestly just a stopover, as he said.

That was something that Sophie Sabastian didn’t believe when she heard it; it wasn’t like he’d come to pick her up once or twice, and she’d purposely would have said that just now just to find an opening.

After all, they hadn’t seen or spoken to each other for many days.

As the car drove home, Leonardo Cooper looked out the window at the store and lifted his thin lips, “Stop. Go to this one and get a chocolate.”

“Yes, President.”

Sophie Sabastian watched Trent Stone get out of the car and then looked at where the car was parked, it was her favorite chocolate shop.

She always wanted chocolate when she was in a bad mood, and when she was in a good mood, but as a reporter she had to get in the picture, and too much chocolate made her fat. It seemed that Leonardo Cooper could memorize all her habits and preferences.

Leonardo Cooper’s gaze fell on her face and when he saw a slight chill under her eyes, he frowned and asked, “Was it something that happened at the station today?”

Suddenly Sophie Sabastian wrapped her arms around Leonardo Cooper and mumbled in his embrace, “No.” After a pause, she spoke again, “Thank you, for what happened to my dad, and thank you, for what happened to my scandal …”

She didn’t know why she herself hugged him, she just suddenly wanted to say all this the moment she heard him ask her.

“We don’t need to say the word ‘thank you’ between us.” Leonardo Cooper raised a hand to stroke the top of her hair.

It had been a long time since he’d held her like he was doing now, and now that she was nestled in his arms, his whole heart felt like it was being filled.

Snuggling together as if for warmth, Sophie Sabastian rubbed against him, “Do you know how horrible I am right now? Now you’re the first thing that comes to mind whenever anything happens to me.”

Being like this made her feel horrible, and she was afraid that she would become more and more dependent on him.

“You’re always the first to show up when I’m in need; you’re always there to help me out when I’m in trouble; you even know when I’m in a good or bad mood, and what I love to eat. But to me, you are a stranger, the most familiar stranger; you flit about, I can never guess your mind.”

The person in his arms, seemingly resigned and confused, rubbed against his heart.

Leonardo Cooper held her away from him, his fingertips lifting her jaw, his eyes meeting hers, lifting his lips in displeasure, “Am I the one who makes you feel untrustworthy?”

Sophie Sabastian was stunned by his words, that was not what she meant.

His cool and chilling voice was heard in her ears again, “I’ve told you more than once that you’re the only woman I’ve got, and that’s not enough to make you feel comfortable relying on me?”

“No, I am …” Sophie Sabastian wanted to open her mouth to explain, but did not know what to say.

She liked him too, and had confessed her love to him, but she always had reservations, probably because she had been hurt by Wilson and didn’t dare to let herself get too deeply involved.

Besides, the term of his one year engagement, he never mentioned that he wanted to break it …

She’d love to be like Leonardo Cooper so she could see what he was thinking and know why he’d only want her for himself.

With four eyes, she could see the anger surprisingly surfacing under Leonardo Cooper’s eyes, but more than that, it was disappointment.

“Do you have any other engagements tonight? If not, can you have dinner with me? I’ll treat you.”

Invite him to dinner?

Between the two of them, was there a need for such strange language?

Seeing that Leonardo Cooper doesn’t open his mouth to speak, Sophie Sabastian’s face is revealed by him with a playful smile, winking her eyes, “All your cards are with me, and when they’re with me, they’re mine, so it’s me who’s inviting you to dinner. Remember it’s my treat. You’ll owe me a meal today, and you’ll have to get something to pay me back later.”

That stiff atmosphere just now was successfully eased by the words she said.

“Girl, I didn’t realize that you still have business potential.” Leonardo Cooper seemed to be satisfied and raised his hand to touch the top of her hair.

Being touched by Leonardo Cooper, Sophie Sabastian felt that this tone of his was like a gratified look of ‘a daughter in my family is growing up’.

Just now she said those words, just intentionally want to ease the atmosphere, she said those words if she really think that way, is too much, say this kind of words were praised to have the potential of doing business, probably really is no treachery is not business.

Outside the car, Trent Stone bought the chocolates and handed them over; “Here, Young Lady.”

Sophie Sabastian took the chocolates and chewed on them feeling the sweet and creamy flavor, remembering that she had given chocolates to Leonardo Cooper before and he seemed to like them too.

Sophie Sabastian handed Leonardo Cooper a piece of the chocolate, “Here.”

Leonardo Cooper took it, his eyes floating slightly, and suddenly opened his mouth to ask, “Do I need to return this?”

“It needs to be returned as well.” Sophie Sabastian narrowed her eyes and smiled, nodding.

No sooner had she finished nodding than she heard Leonardo Cooper in her ear say, “And how do you want me to pay it back? A meal, a bar of chocolate.”

“Uh … haven’t thought about it, I’ll tell you when I do.” After she answered that, she lowered her head and ate the chocolate again, she was just talking, but looking at Leonardo Cooper so seriously, it was as if he really wanted to pay it back.

When she finished eating, when she raised her head, she saw that Leonardo Cooper was still looking at her, the chocolate in his hand was still uneaten, she was about to open her mouth to say something, but then she saw that he had reached over and grazed the corner of her lips with his fingers, slightly cool fingertips, as if they had been brought with a store, touching her lips, giving her a tingling feeling.

In addition to having a tingling sensation, there was also because Leonardo Cooper leaned in too tightly, his warm breath brushed against her face, and she was a little hot and dizzy.
