My Sweet Wife

Chapter 242 Turns out, she’s the substitute



At night, Sophie Sabastian sat on the sofa waiting for Leonardo Cooper to come back and fell asleep waiting.

As soon as Leonardo Cooper came back, he saw Sophie Sabastian lying on the sofa, frowning with heartache, he looked at Winifred who greeted him and took the jacket in his hand, “Why don’t you let the young lady go to the bedroom to sleep?”

“I persuaded, young lady she had to wait here for you to come back.” Winifred felt wronged.

Leonardo Cooper walked over to Sophie Sabastian, picked her up in a cross body and brought her back to her room, she woke up just as she was placed on the bed.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

Sophie Sabastian opened her eyes and looked at him, “Honey, why are you back? When did you come back? Why did you come back without waking me up?”

“I just got back.” He lowered his voice and spoke to her.

Sophie Sabastian looked at Leonardo Cooper and remembered that she had taken the pregnancy test and was going to leave it for him to read, but she didn’t have it in her hand, so she must have left it on the couch when she fell asleep.

She got up and wanted to look for it on the living room couch.

Leonardo Cooper pushed her back, “Where are you going? It’s late, go to bed.”

Sophie Sabastian could see the weariness on Leonardo Cooper’s face, she’d been waiting for him to come back since she’d answered his phone call, wanting to show him the pregnancy test, and wanting to ask him who the woman was, and wanting to ask him why he’d kept the divorce papers.

She had a bunch of things she wanted to say to him, but he had a tired look on his face and wanted to rest, and after half a heartbeat of wanting to say something, she just let it go.

Wait until tomorrow, she thought.

Let him rest first.

Sophie Sabastian lay in Leonardo Cooper’s arms, it had been a long time since she had slept with him, and it felt so warm to be in his arms.

Her heart felt like it was instantly filled, as if as long as he was there, she could get through any sadness, or anything that was too big for her to handle.

The next morning, Sophie Sabastian woke up first, rather than waking up first, it was more like she hadn’t slept all night.

Maybe it was because she slept a lot before, or maybe it was because she had a lot of things on her mind, so she was so overwhelmed that she had no sleep and couldn’t sleep.

She heard a cell phone ringing in her ears, she followed the sound and looked for her cell phone, it was Leonardo Cooper’s cell phone calling, she glanced at the caller ID Ewenny.

Leonardo Cooper woke up to the sound of his cell phone calling.

Sophie Sabastian saw that he was awake and rushed to hand him his cell phone, “Incoming call on your cell phone.”

The sound of the incoming cell phone call stopped the moment Leonardo Cooper took it, he tossed the phone aside and got up, “I’m going to take a shower while you get some more sleep.”

“Aren’t you going to get more sleep? You came home so late last night.” Sophie Sabastian frowned her pretty eyebrows, concerned about him.

She was worried that he was too tired.

Leonardo Cooper could hear it too, he leaned over and kissed her forehead, “I still have to go to the office today, there are still some things I haven’t finished.”

“Oh.” Sophie Sabastian answered.

She watched Leonardo Cooper walk into the bathroom and didn’t take her eyes back for a long time, she heard the sound of her cell phone calling again in her ear, she took the phone and looked at the caller ID, it was still Ewenny. just now Leonardo Cooper didn’t call back, which meant it should be an unimportant person, right?

But when people called again, it must be something.

Sophie Sabastian stared at the caller ID, hesitating to answer the call, because the note was a name, and if it was a business person, there should be a note for the name, but it was just a simple name.

When she was hesitating to answer the call, Sophie Sabastian’s hand accidentally touched the answer button.

A soft and sweet woman’s voice came from the other end of the phone, “Hey, Brother Leonardo, are you up yet?”

Have you gotten up yet, this kind of question, this kind of tone, it should be between a very intimate couple that would say something like this, right?

“He’s in the shower, may I ask what’s up?” Sophie Sabastian returned.

It was true that Leonardo Cooper was in the shower, she was being honest, but how the person on the other end of the line heard Sophie Sabastian say that was kind of deliberate.

Ewenny’s voice on the other end of the line became harsh, “Who are you? Why did you take Brother Leonardo’s cell phone?”

“Do you have something? I’ll pass it on for you if there’s something wrong, I’ll hang up if there’s nothing.” Sophie Sabastian said this and hung up without waiting for her to answer.

The name Ewenny, Sophie Sabastian felt familiar, she thought for a while, and suddenly remembered that Larissa had mentioned it to her several times before, and every time Larissa mentioned Ewenny when she was saying those strange things to her.

Ewenny on the other end of the phone was still talking, “What’s your relationship with Brother Leonardo? Who are you?!”

But the phone responded to her with the sound of a mechanical hang-up.

Once Sophie Sabastian hung up, she got up from her bed and went downstairs to the living room to find her pregnancy test slip, which she wanted to show to Leonardo Cooper.

Winifred, who was starting to get busy cooking in the kitchen downstairs, was surprised to see Sophie Sabastian up, “Young Lady, you’re up so early today, I haven’t even made breakfast yet.”

“I’ll do it with you.” Sophie Sabastian thought that Leonardo Cooper would be going to work later, so she wanted to help Winifred do it together to make it faster.

Sophie Sabastian was helping Winifred with the cooking and was only halfway through when she saw Leonardo Cooper coming down from upstairs.

“Honey, are you leaving now? Not eating?”

“Uh-huh. I’ll eat at the office.”

Sophie Sabastian watched Leonardo Cooper turn around and leave, a sense of loss rose in her heart, and she didn’t know why there was an empty feeling in her heart.

In her mind she thought about Larissa’s words, about Wilson’s words, and the phone call she had gotten this morning, and the divorce papers, so many things she wanted to ask about, but there wasn’t even a proper chance to open her mouth.

Sophie Sabastian wanted to believe in Leonardo Cooper’s character, she felt that if he had a woman outside, he could have told her directly, there was no need to hide it from her.

With this in mind, Sophie Sabastian felt less depressed.

But she still wanted to ask for clarification.

At noon, Sophie Sabastian looked at the time, took Winifred’s cooking and her pregnancy test, and went to the office to find Leonardo Cooper.

Once she arrived at the office, she took the elevator, and just as she reached the top floor and got off the elevator, Sophie Sabastian met Sophia.

When Sophia saw Sophie Sabastian sitting in with her lunch box, she automatically gave way to her, but the corner of her mouth surfaced a touch of ridicule, and spoke, “You really have a big heart, and your skin is thick enough. It’s also true that to be able to hold Kennedy in one hand and our president in the other, how can you do it without a bit of characterization and a bit of city?”

“You’ve picked on me several times, isn’t it because you also covet Leonardo Cooper? You like him and don’t dare to tell him directly, so you want to give me a hard time?”

Hearing Sophie Sabastian say this, Sophia instantly glared at her in anger, “You! I was originally looking at the fact that your mom and dad just died and harboring some mercy in my heart, I didn’t want to tell you a thing, but now it seems that I don’t have to be merciful to you.”

Mercy? If she really was a merciful and good person, she wouldn’t have brought up the matter of her mom and dad’s death again.

There wasn’t a single person in the entire city today who didn’t know about her parents’ death, Sophia knew all about it, but it seemed as if Leonardo Cooper didn’t know about it yet.

Realizing this matter, Sophie Sabastian was a bit lost, in the past, no matter how big or small she was, Leonardo Cooper knew everything, and would also deal with the trouble for her, but now that such a big thing had happened to her, he still didn’t know.

She thought that he was too busy with work and tried to understand him, but it was impossible to understand without losing her mind.

Sophie Sabastian looked at the lunch box in her hand with her eyelids hanging down, she didn’t want to pay attention to Sophia, she turned around to leave, but Sophia reached out and pulled her back, “What? Are you too scared to listen?”

“I’m not interested in hearing what you have to say.” Sophie Sabastian pivoted away from her hand, she hadn’t had the leisure to pay her any attention.

But now that she was being tugged at by Sophia, it wouldn’t hurt to delay a bit to hear what she had to say.

Sophia snorted, “Yeah? Do you know Ewenny?”

Ewenny again.

Sophie Sabastian had gotten a headache from such a name and now recoiled when she heard it, not wanting to hear it very much. But she was dying to know about Ewenny.

Seeing Sophie Sabastian stop her footsteps, the mocking meaning at the corner of Sophia’s mouth became more and more intense, and she continued to say, ”The president went to Canadian this time because she was injured, and specially went to Canadian to take care of her. This time he came back and brought her back, the president placed her in a villa under his name.”

Going to Canadian wasn’t a business trip to take care of Ewenny?

Is that why he wasn’t available to take her call? Or should that be, he didn’t want to answer it.

In her ear Sophie Sabastian was still hearing Sophia saying, “Have you seen Ewenny? Yesterday, she and the president came back and were photographed by the media reporters, but unfortunately, they didn’t capture the front face. I did see the front face, you really do look like her, especially the nose and eyes.”

“Sophie Sabastian, you can be really pathetic, you are nothing but a substitute with the president, a substitute for Ewenny, you are a pathetic and ridiculous substitute, what do you have to flaunt in front of me?”

“Now that Ewenny is back, just wait, the president will soon abandon you, and I will soon be able to see you crying miserably!”

“You’re talking nonsense! Don’t know what you’re talking about?!” Sophie Sabastian was that overwhelmed and left with quick steps.

Behind her, however, Sophia raised her voice and shouted, “Sophie Sabastian, I’m just waiting to see what happens to you!”

The words that Sophia shouted were clearly heard by Sophie Sabastian, and it was like there was a tape recorder playing back in her ears, always replaying the words that Sophia said to her.

“The president went to Canadian this time because she was injured and went to Canadian specifically to take care of her. This time he came back to bring her back, and the president placed her in a villa under his name.”

“You really do look like her, especially the nose and eyes.”

“Sophie Sabastian, you can be really pathetic, you are nothing but a substitute with the president.”

Substitute …

She never knew why Leonardo Cooper liked her, why he was willing to extend his hand to her when she was abandoned by her fiancé at the wedding; why he was always so nice to her and took care of her; why he saved her so many times …

She couldn’t find a reason for his kindness, which is why she’d always found it hard to guess Leonardo Cooper, found him hard to get close to, and even though she slept in the same bed every day, she still found him strange.

Turns out, the reason was because she was a substitute?
