My Sweet Wife

Chapter 231: Falling into the Abyss



When she was about to finish her meal, Sophie Sabastian’s cell phone called, he picked up the phone and looked at the caller ID it was Leonardo Cooper calling. She hurriedly put her cell phone aside to answer it.

The phone which came from Leonardo Cooper’s voice, Leonardo Cooper’s voice was clear and cold, “Where are you?”

At this moment, Sophie Sabastian realized that she did not call Leonardo Cooper, and Leonardo Cooper might have run downstairs of her company to wait for her.

Sophie Sabastian spoke warmly: “That, I am at the Western Restaurant at 156 SX Road. Your friend Mr. Nathanael invited me for dinner. Said you would pick me up later.”

Smart Sophie Sabastian knew how to talk to keep Leonardo Cooper from getting angry.

Nathanael Lora wasn’t very happy to hear her say that. Mr. Nathanael? A friend of yours? Rather, she skimmed herself off the top and looked raw.

Nathanael Lora waited for Sophie Sabastian to hang up before speaking, “Am I not your friend? Are you so afraid Leonardo Cooper will be upset?”

“Count me as a friend, a regular friend, not so much that I can treat myself to a meal at a restaurant like this. As for the second question you asked, of course I’d be afraid Leonardo Cooper would be upset, he’s my husband, and if he’s upset, I can’t be happy.”

While waiting for Leonardo Cooper to come over, the meal was finished, so Sophie Sabastian was free to answer his two boring questions.

Nathanael Lora had a very lost eyed look on his face, he was playing with his wine glass in his hand, looking at the beauty of the shaking red liquid in the light, and said in a pitying tone, “You have a terrible eye for picking men, you don’t want a warm hearted one like me, you have to pick a hard to reach geek like Leonardo Cooper. ”

Hearing Nathanael Lora say this, Sophie Sabastian gave a nonchalant smile.

Let him know what that smile meant.

It didn’t take twenty minutes for Leonardo Cooper to arrive.

Seeing Leonardo Cooper enter the restaurant, Nathanael Lora waved at Leonardo Cooper and greeted him, ”It was too difficult to invite you to a meal, so I invited your wife over to eat. Have you eaten yet? By the looks of you you should have just gotten off work, would you like to have some?”

“Honey, the lobster here is delicious.” Sophie Sabastian was also worried that Leonardo Cooper was hungry right now, so she wanted him to have some here and gave him dish recommendations.

She got up and walked over to Leonardo Cooper and took his arm, “Eat here, Mr. Nathanael’s treat, I’ve had plenty.”

Leonardo Cooper raised his hand and stroked Sophie Sabastian’s head, seeing the excited smile under her eyes from the free meal someone else had treated her to, and was in a happy mood.

“Get one of each of your signature dishes here. Lobster for two packages.” Leonardo Cooper said as he looked to the waiter.

Nathanael Lora looked at him incredulously, “I invite you, you don’t come to eat, your wife calls you, you come. Leonardo Cooper, you’re a fake aren’t you? Or you have so much of this point, and take out and pack, this kind of thing is not something you can do!”

Leonardo Cooper gracefully took his seat and looked at Nathanael Lora, “I thought you wanted to buy me dinner? I’m fulfilling you.”

“…” Nathanael Lora was surprisingly speechless.

Watching the dishes come up one by one, Nathanael Lora found something serious to talk to Leonardo Cooper, “President Cooper, the cooperation I talked to you about, how are you considering it?”

Leonardo Cooper didn’t say anything, but Sophie Sabastian beside him said curiously, “You two can still have a project together? The fields you two are involved in are completely incompatible, right?”

Nathanael Lora is primarily a car salesman, with side projects related to automotive peripherals.

Leonardo Cooper is all about gaming and investing in movies and TV.

“Of course we do, and we try to be multi-faceted every year, to try other areas. Like the two projects we tried this year, a perfume and a movie investment.”

“Ohhh.” After a pause, Sophie Sabastian suddenly remembered that the sponsor of the show she’s doing now has an expiration date and won’t be working with her, she looked to Nathanael Lora, “That, Mr. Nathanael, since you have so many industries, you must need to advertise every year as well, right? The program I’m hosting right now is just short of an advertising sponsor.”

Nathanael Lora looks at her in surprise, “Sophie Sabastian, aren’t you a host? How come the host wants to do the job of soliciting advertisement sponsors first too?”

“I saw you and thought of it in passing. I get a twenty percent commission on ad sponsors.”

“Are you short of money?”

“No, but it’s not like having a lot of money is a bad thing.”

The two of them were talking, Leonardo Cooper wasn’t talking, and also Nathanael Lora’s business didn’t get done, and he hitched up some money to sponsor the show.

Sophie Sabastian was very accomplished about this pulling in advertising sponsorships, after all, if she got this done, the station manager would be happy, and her position would be a little more important on the station again.

After dinner, Sophie Sabastian got into her car and explained the day’s events to Leonardo Cooper.

Leonardo Cooper listened patiently.

Sophie Sabastian suddenly thought of what Larissa had said to her, she looked at Leonardo Cooper and said, “Honey, Larissa said something very strange to me today, she warned me that I should not think about her fiancé and you.”

“Pay no attention to her.” Leonardo Cooper said with a faint look on his face.

“Uh-huh.” After a pause, Sophie Sabastian added, “She and Nathanael Lora are both weird, and Nathanael Lora went to the station and instead of picking up Larissa, she took me to dinner.”

Whether the two of them are weird or not, only those in the know will know.

Leonardo Cooper, although he had known both Nathanael Lora and Larissa for a short period of time, had never cared much about what was going on between the two of them, so he didn’t really know.

After seeing Sophie Sabastian and Leonardo Cooper off Nathanael Lora was bored and went back to the bar.

At night Larissa goes to the bar to pick up a drunk Nathanael Lora, she frowns, “Why did you get yourself drunk again?”

“Is it my dear fiancée?” Nathanael Lora raised his hand and tenderly stroked the top of Larissa’s hair, and his tone of voice was wireless with favor.

Larissa saw the women in revealing clothes surrounding Nathanael Lora next to her, and coldly scolded, “Why don’t you guys get out of the way and stand in the way?”

“Dear fiancée, why are you so ungentle? You should have told them to please get out of the way.” Nathanael Lora leaned on Larissa’s shoulder and winked at them with a smile in her eyes, “I apologize for my fiancée, I didn’t scare you.”

“Pretty little girls should be treated as pretty little girls should be treated, no rude remarks to them.”

A drunken Nathanael Lora, looking again at Larissa, who was holding him up, “Of course, you’re still the best looking. You wouldn’t be a big star if you didn’t look good, would you?”

For the drunken Nathanael Lora, Larissa was too lazy to fight with him.

Helping Nathanael Lora and throwing him into the car, Larissa looked at the way he was sleeping with his eyes closed and reached out to stroke his face, “Do you love her that much? If you love her so much, then why are you engaged to me?”

No one’s heart is made of stone, besides Larissa is the star of the show, the one everyone holds in their hands, so proud to be so humble in front of Nathanael Lora.

“Do you think Sophie Sabastian looks like her? Even someone who looks like her, you accompany her to dinner.”

Nathanael Lora hears the sound of someone talking in his ear, he raises his hand and caresses Larissa’s face as if he is admiring that with all his heart, “Larissa, you are beautiful.”

“Hmm… Even as pretty as it is, it’s not the face you like.” Larissa’s eyes darkened and she murmured in a despondent whisper, “You’ll love me if you just tell me that you’ll love me if I make my face like hers, and I’ll leave everything behind right now to become the way you like.”

Nathanael Lora, who had raised his hand to caress Larissa’s face, froze his hand for a fraction of a second, just as fast as he was different.Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

He wasn’t drunk, and it was never the case that those who wanted to be drunk would become more and more sober.

Ergo, Nathanael Lora reached out, cupped her jaw with his fingertips, and took her lips.

With that kiss, the bitterness was spreading in Larissa’s mouth, like her internal organs had been squeezed so bad that they squeezed out bile before the bitterness spread into her mouth. She used to think she wouldn’t care if he was awake when he made love to her, knowing that the person was her.

But now she realized that she cared, and she wanted him to love her.

But if she pushed him away, then she wouldn’t even have a chance to be a substitute. Wrapping her arms around Nathanael Lora’s neck, she struggled to kiss him back.

In the midst of the pleasure, Nathanael Lora touched a cold tear that fell on his hand, but it was unexpectedly hot, scalding his heart for a moment, and he stopped moving, lifting his hand to wipe away the tear under her eye with his fingertips, lowering his voice to ask, “Why are you crying?”

Was she crying?

Even Larissa herself didn’t realize that she was actually crying, she was slightly lost in thought and a smile appeared on her face again, “I accidentally got my hair in my eyes and it hurt a little, so I shed a tear.”

“Larissa, don’t cry, you won’t look pretty if you do.” Nathanael Lora said softly, her hand still wiping her tears.

After wiping her tears, Nathanael Lora patted her head lightly, “Call your assistant and ask your assistant to come and drive you back.”

“What about you?” Larissa looked at him in disbelief before trying to negotiate with him, “I’ll drive you back and then have my assistant drive me back.”

“Do as you’re told. Hmm? You have your assistant come and drive you back, it’s getting late and it’s not good for your skin if you go to bed too late. I can get a chauffeur to come over. I’ll come back to your place to keep you company when I’m free.”

His voice was extraordinarily gentle.

But Larissa was clear that he was such a gentle gentleman when talking to anyone, not just her alone.

Larissa looked at Nathanael Lora for an instant.

She had once fallen into this abyss by mistaking his gentleness to be exclusive to her, before she fell for him.

Half a dozen times, Larissa still took out her cell phone and called her assistant.

She knew she had to listen to him, she was going to be capricious and want to stay with him for a little while longer, he wouldn’t have a fit on the surface and say something to him, but he would be cold and not see her for a long time afterward. She had no way to cope with this kind of behavior of his, to maintain this relationship with her, she had to only obediently listen to him only.
