Chapter 62 How Could He Face It


    Reeva was confused, “How did youe downstairs? Didn’t your brothere from hometown, and


    today he came back again without telling me.”


    “I…” Elizabeth did not what to say. She had not introduced Hugo to Reeva till now, if she said she had


    got married and lived with her husband upstairs, would it be awkward?


    “Your brother has told me about your story.” Reeva looked at Elizabeth with sympathy and then she


    added, “I think, it will be better if we live separately… after all, you are not brother and sister.”


    So that was Reeva cared.


    Elizabeth forced a smile and nodded.


    This belongs ? N?velDra/ma.Org.


    In the past, Reeva was nice to her, because she was the sister of Anthony.


    If they were not brother and sister, it was indeed awkward to live with them.


    At this, Elizabeth took out her key to the house where she rented with Anthony to Reeva.


    “Your stuff...” Reeva asked.


    Elizabeth interrupted her with a smile, “I have not too many things in the house.”


    “What about your quilt and slipper?”


    “Throw them away.”


    “Ok.”


    After the door of the elevator opened, Elizabeth and Reeva parted.


    Reeva was no longer her sister-inw.


    In addition to Hugo, in this city, she felt she had no one to rely on.


    The manager’s office in DL Estate Building


    “Mr. Hugo, here is your tea.” Ben, the assistant put a y colored ceramic teacup lightly on Hugo’s


    desk.


    At that moment, Hugo was reading the document and did not notice the tea up. As he turned the page,


    the tea cup leaned over and got the desk wet.


    Seeing that, Ben took the tissue from the desk, strode over to wipe it and he apologized, “I should not


    put the cup here.”


    “Never mind, I don’t drink eat. After reading these papers, I have to go to the headquarters.” Hugo


    closed the document and got up.


    “Are you leaving?” Ben wiped clean the desk and then asked with doubts, “You have an internal


    meeting in half an hour.”


    “Put it off to the afternoon.” Hugo said lightly. He now only thought about the things rted to his


    brother Jasper.


    His brother would have a routine check in the headquarter, should he go and meet him?


    He got up and left his office.


    As he came out form his exclusive elevator, he looked up and saw a familiar figure standing at the door.


    Probably, it was telepathy, the woman turned around.


    She was not as thin as before.


    Her skin was good, her eyes were bright and her smile was clean. Her curly ck hair was beautiful.


    She folded her arms with a LV bag.


    Hugo could not help but frown. As he was in daze, Sofia stepped on her silver high heel and walked to


    him with a smile, “Hugo.”


    Sofia raised her hand and took Hugo’s hand, shook it in the air like his girlfriend.


    She felt his hand was as warm as before, which was unforgettable.


    Since Hannah the deputy director of the finance department stuck around Hugo, other women would


    stay away from him.


    One time, Elizabeth was understood by Hannah and was targeted secretly.


    Now, there was a woman again. Several female staff passing by the hall looked Sofia up and down with


    gossip.


    Sofia was ufortable by being stared, but she was peacockish with a smile. She looked at Hugo


    andint with a soft voice, “Hugo, why didn’t you pick me up? I…”


    Hugo frowned and took back his hand from Sofia and then interrupted her with a cold tone, “Miss


    Rogers, please show respect.”


    Sofia was dumbfounded. She stared at Hugo’s indifferent face for a long time. It was she made a


    mistake first, so she stepped back, lowed her eyes sadly and said in a polite and estranged voice, “Mr.


    Hugo, do you have time to have lunch with me? I have something to tell you.”


    “No.” Huge refused her directly, passed around her and strode to the door.


    Sofia did not give up and caught up with him and once again took Hugo’s hand. Feeling wronged, she


    got moist in eyes. She said in a hoarse voice, lowering her gesture, “Please, Hugo.”


    Hugo still did not want to pay attention to her. He narrowed his eyes and fixed his eyes on the hand


    holding his hand.


    He did not resist again. Sofia was pleased, raising her eyebrows, “Hugo, I do have something to tell


    you. Actually…”


    “I have no interest.” Hugo came back to his sense and interrupted her before she could finish her


    words.


    Then he nced at her hand holding his, pressed his lips and then shook it off with force.


    It was a great force and unconsciously he pushed her away.


    Sofia staggered. She did not stand stably on her high heels and then fell behind with that force.


    Hugo did not bear to see that, so he hurried to stretched out, caught her should, so she did not fall


    down.


    Sofia was pleased and took the advantage to lean to his chest. She looked up at his doubtful eyes


    pitifully.


    It had been five years they had not met each other, and he became more excellent.


    He was now the manager of the DL Estate and a well-known national architect.


    Sofia remembered that when they were high school students, Hugo’s handsome face had attracted


    much attention from many girls. Now he became better looking, making her infatuated. By a nce,


    she was attracted.


    “Hugo, please… let me finish, ok? I had a reason when I left you. Don’t you want to know why?” As


    Hugo was silent, Sofia tried to finish her words.
