My Sweet Wife

Chapter 285: Promise her conditions and promise to get married only after you do it



Kennedy received Sophie Sabastian and chatted with her while driving, “Sister-in-law, you shouldn’t be anxious, Leonardo, he’s just having an old problem, and it’s not the first time he’s been in the hospital in the past two years or so. Stomach problems, you don’t have to worry too much.”

He was deliberately lying about the person being in the hospital, but he was also afraid of scaring Sophie Sabastian, so he said this to comfort her.

“Since, he’s not seriously sick, why would he lie to deceive me?” Sophie Sabastian asked him suspiciously.

After all, Leonardo Cooper’s stomach problem, she already knew about it, and there was no reason for him to hide it from her to lie with her before.

Kennedy’s eyes floated and twinkled underneath her eyes, “This, this I didn’t ask him. He’s probably, I think he’s probably given up on himself and doesn’t want to tell you any more about him, wants to stop pestering you.”

“Is that so?” Sophie Sabastian frowned at Kennedy, clearly not at all convinced.

How could Leonardo Cooper have changed his mind first thing this morning when he was drunk last night and was telling her he didn’t want a divorce?

“Of course.” Since he lied, Kennedy hardened his heart and finished the scene, he just had to get the person to the hospital.

Sophie Sabastian looked at the vehicles coming and going, originally worried about Leonardo Cooper’s condition, but now her mood has calmed down.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

It was only after half a minute that she spoke again and asked Kennedy, “Is he really planning to divorce me?”

“Huh?” Kennedy was in a trance, nervously vain, “I didn’t say that, don’t you dare guess. We’ll be at the hospital soon, ask Leonardo Cooper yourself when you get there.”

Sophie Sabastian was clearly able to determine that Leonardo Cooper was not trying to divorce her.

However, she couldn’t think of any reason right now why Leonardo Cooper wasn’t answering his phone and why he was hiding the hospitalization from her.

When they got to the hospital, the whole floor was silent; Sophie Sabastian knew the hospital well enough to know that it was usually full of patients and that the inpatient gastroenterology unit was not in this building.

But since Kennedy had brought her here, she went ahead and followed; maybe Leonardo Cooper wasn’t had some kind of stomach bug.

“You go on in. I won’t be going in with you.” Kennedy brought her to the door of the hospital room and stopped short.

Sophie Sabastian pushes the door open, and there’s a room full of balloons and lots of glowing stars, and the whole room is dark, but just enough to be illuminated because of the glowing stars, and there are hovering hydrogen balloons up there, and there’s a box of chocolates crashed underneath them, and underneath the biggest balloon is a ring box.

Leonardo Cooper walked out, took the ring from the ring box, walked up to her and got down on one knee, “Sophie, I love you. Let’s have a wedding.”

Sophie Sabastian didn’t say a word as she silently looked at the man kneeling in front of her.

What a roller coaster of emotions at this moment she experienced, before coming here, her heart was in turmoil and worried about him, now because of the surprise he prepared, her whole heart floated in the air again. Being proposed to by the man you love, no one would be unhappy.

At that time her brain was feverish and she was so moved that she lost the ability to think and nodded her head.

Sophie Sabastian brought down the chocolates in the room piece by piece and looked to Leonardo Cooper and asked, “Did you do the setup here yourself?”

She was worried that even the venue for the proposal, he was all big presidential gesture and gave an order for someone else to come and get it, then such a proposal would lose its meaning.

“Of course I got it. But I told Trent Stone to get the stuff.” Leonardo Cooper took her in his arms and talked to her.

He didn’t want to lie to her.

Sophie Sabastian sat in her room for over an hour, the fever in her brain dissipating, she broke away from Leonardo Cooper’s arms and looked at him, “There’s no rush on the wedding. You have to promise me a few things first.”

“What things?” Leonardo Cooper couldn’t help but tighten his eyebrows when he saw her look so serious.

“First, don’t fail to answer my calls in the future, you have to answer my calls at all times; second, you can’t tell lies to deceive me, whether you think it’s for my own good or not; and third, you can’t get angry with me at any time, and you can’t be cold and violent towards me.”

After a pause, Sophie Sabastian took the ring off her hand, “Whenever you do those three things, then we’ll have the wedding.”

“Uh, okay.” Leonardo Cooper answered. He had a loss, but the fact that she hadn’t mentioned divorce was enough to satisfy him, and he was confident that he could do what she asked.

Sophie Sabastian gave the chocolates in a box, crouched down and picked up the box on the floor, looked at Leonardo Cooper and asked, “Why did you propose to me so suddenly? It’s not in your character, you’re supposed to plan everything you do for a long time.”

“The phone call, the fact that you told me you weren’t sick but had Kennedy bring me to the hospital was an impromptu decision later?”

Speaking of which, Sophie Sabastian looked as if something had occurred to her, “Did Kennedy put you up to all this?”

If so, then her decision to hold off on the wedding was the right one, and the happy sort of mood she’d just been in had suffered.

“Uh-huh.” Leonardo Cooper answered.

Sophie Sabastian stopped talking and went straight out the door, clutching her chocolates.

Leonardo Cooper followed behind her and spoke, “Because you were angry last night, I wasn’t sure about the proposal, but still wanted to give it a try. Girl, I want to see you smile at me, you haven’t smiled at me in a long time, you used to be so easy to coax, you’d smile when you bought a piece of chocolate.”

Leonardo Cooper took a piece of chocolate and tore it open and handed it to her mouth as he reached over and hugged the cardboard box in her arms.

“That’s because I used to be so protected by my parents that a child’s mind is easily satisfied.” Sophie Sabastian stopped in her tracks and looked back at him.

It was different now, it was hard for her to be happy with chocolate, even if she was given two mountains of it.

She just couldn’t really be able to be able to smile when she thought about, her mom and dad, and her unborn child.

“Girl, it’s my bad.” Leonardo Cooper had a slight lump in his throat.

Blaming himself for the past, how could two people who were prone to sadness, come together and laugh? Unless none of this had ever happened between them or, alternatively, time was allowed to heal the wounds.

Sophie Sabastian saw him like this, her heart is also sour hard, she reached out and hugged him, as if she wanted to warm up that way, rubbed in his arms, “Leonardo Cooper, everything you did to me, I already know. Abroad, you actually knew where I was and arranged for Alicia to come over and take care of me, Alicia told me all of these things.”

“Thank you, for keeping Alicia with me.”

She knew he’d been with her silently like that for over two years as well, that she’d been in danger and nearly killed by fire, that she was childless, and that he could blame himself enough to break his body like that, and that it meant, too, that he was in pain, and that he was grieving, too.

Now, whether or not she could let herself go and stop blaming herself and stop feeling sorry for the past, those were things she could only try to see.

If she can’t let herself go, then the knot in her heart can’t be untied, and she won’t be able to love Leonardo Cooper and enjoy being loved by Leonardo Cooper as she used to.

Losing the ability to love people and not daring to enjoy being loved are destined to be unhappy.

After a pause, Sophie Sabastian spoke again, “Let’s go back, tomorrow, I want to visit my parents at the cemetery.”

She also wanted to go home and visit.

Out of that hospital, Kennedy and Trent Stone and a group of people who were helping earlier, were waiting for them in front of the hospital, Kennedy looked at Leonardo Cooper and Sophie Sabastian with an expectant gaze, “Have you two discussed when you want to have the wedding? It’s such a happy day, it’s worth celebrating, go to my bar, let’s go.”

“The wedding isn’t going to happen for a while. Also, Leonardo Cooper he can’t drink, bad stomach.” Sophie Sabastian said looking over at Kennedy.

Upon hearing that he couldn’t drink, Kennedy found it meaningless, “Well, if you can’t drink, you have to celebrate, right? Some juice would be fine.”

Sophie Sabastian frowned her pretty eyebrows, her expression was very serious, “Leonardo Cooper, add one more condition to what I just said, you can’t drink again, if you drink, we will divorce immediately. I don’t want to lose my husband, it’s too unpleasant to talk about.”

“I will absolutely not drink in the future, I will stay away from anyone who advises me to drink, what you said last night, I have not forgotten.” Leonardo Cooper also took a stand immediately.

Kennedy scratched his head feebly, “Breathless, Leonardo, why have you become a wifey?”

“By the way, I forgot, what happened last night has not yet been dealt with.” Leonardo Cooper said this and looked at Trent Stone, “Don’t allow that boss to come within my sight again.”

“Yes, President.”

Sophie Sabastian looked at the answering Trent Stone and asked suspiciously, “Trent Stone, didn’t you say your wife fell? How is the person? Why did you come back to work so soon, why don’t you stay home with her more?”

“Back to ma’am, my wife and the fetus in my abdomen, are not in any serious trouble, they just moved a little bit last night.”

“It’s good that it’s fine.” Sophie Sabastian also felt that over the years, Trent Stone had followed Leonardo Cooper around, like a personal nanny, so she cared a little more.

Kennedy, who was treated like air, looked at Sophie Sabastian, “Sister-in-law, are you sure you don’t want to go to the bar to play? It’s just juice and dancing to celebrate.”

“If you want to drink juice and dance, then you can come back with us, to the house, I’ll get you freshly squeezed juice, put music on for you, and you can dance there.” Sophie Sabastian returned Kennedy’s words.

From what she knew of Kennedy, he was involved with the mob and arms, and just looked sunny and like a nice guy on the surface.

He’s going to a bar, purely dancing and drinking juice, who’s going to believe that?

Kennedy is powerless, he looked at Leonardo Cooper and said, “Thanks to me to give you advice, thanks to me to treat you as a brother. What can happen to these two of you well, hanging out with me, a single guy?”

“Oh, you haven’t found one yet? Then I’ll find you a girlfriend as soon as possible, I’m in touch with a lot of stars now.”

Kennedy didn’t agree as happily as before, and also gave a refusal, “No need, I seem to have found that girlfriend of mine too, I can’t get excited about other women, sucks.”

“We’ll be heading back then.” Those were Leonardo Cooper’s words.

Leonardo Cooper took Sophie Sabastian to the car.

Kennedy, who was left where he was, watched the car they were sitting in speed away and badly shouted, “Eh! You guys just left me here and left!”
