Chapter 239


    The two stood in silence. Sophia was ying with her keyboard boredly as she made her character in


    the game walk around in circles by theke. All the while, she was thinking about Irene, whom she had


    met earlier that day.


    Irene… is literally like a magical bird in the sky.


    She is a magical bird, and I am only a wild chicken.


    To Michael, I am receable. I am probably someone he could get rid of anytime!


    Beast continued to stand by Sophia’s side in silence as well. asionally, he would move a little to


    prove that he was still there.


    Beast finally asked, ‘Unhappy?’


    Sophia replied, ‘Yeah.’


    ‘What’s the matter?’


    Sophia poured herself a ss of milk. After finishing it off, she typed, “I’ve been tomb sweeping all day. I


    feel down.’


    After a few seconds, Beast replied, ‘When you think about the fact that it’s a holiday today, you won’t feel


    down anymore.’


    Off screen, Sophiaughed out loud. If Beast knew that I was Sirius, who had killed him before, we’ll see


    if he is still happy.


    Sophia replied, ‘I went tomb sweeping with my husband today and met his first love; tell me if that wasn’t


    heavy.’


    Harry rested his hand on the keyboard and watched as the beautiful young warrior typed out sentence by


    sentence.


    ‘He’s locked himself in the study ever since we came home.’


    ‘His first love was really beautiful.’


    Harry had a rough idea of what had happened; no wonder Sophia wandered around for over an hour in


    the game.


    First love?


    Was Sophia talking about Irene?


    Back then, Irene and Michael were already engaged, and everything was progressing well. If everything


    had gone smoothly, Nathan would’ve had a sibling of his age already.


    But ever since that ident…


    Over these years, Michael never brought up Irene, but Harry knew it didn’t mean that he had forgotten


    about her.


    If he still couldn’t let go of her, why did he even bother bringing a young bride home?


    Suddenly, Harry felt sorry for her and replied, ‘As a man, he would always remember his first love, but


    you are the only one in his heart.’


    Sophia shook her head. All of a sudden, she didn’t feel like drinking milk anymore, so she took some red


    wine from the cer and poured herself a ss. It was a very fine wine, but when she drank it, it tasted


    extremely bitter.


    Wine is so bitter. Why do people still like to drink it?


    As the strong wine entered her throat, Sophia could feel a zing fire burning from her lips to her


    stomach as it prated into her heart. In an instant, she felt a pain in her heart; after the heat was


    gone, she became numb, unable to feel the pain anymore.


    Perhaps this was the advantage of having fine wine!


    After drinking the wine, Sophia’s face became red all of a sudden.


    Taking advantage of the effect of alcohol, Sophia blurted out everything she’d been suppressing to Beast


    as if he was a dumpster. ‘Tell me, do men have a true heart?’


    Before Beast could reply, Sophia started talking to herself. ‘How would men have a true heart?’


    When the wife of Sophia’s father, Joe, was pregnant, he hooked up with the nanny who was hired to take


    care of the pregnant wife, getting her pregnant in the process. Joe didn’t even care about the child that


    his nanny was carrying, which was his own flesh and blood.


    What a ‘nice speech’ Richard had back then when he said, “I vow to love you forever, and I will never


    leave you unless the world falls apart.” In the end, he got together with the Huffs!


    Love? Hmph!


    Harry saw the words Sophia had sent to him.


    ‘There is obviously someone else in his heart, but why is so nice to me? Is he not afraid that I might fall


    in love with him one day?’


    After thinking for a long time, Harry didn’t know what to reply. When he finally figured out his lines,


    Sophia had already gone offline…


    Sophia switched off theputer and gulped another mouthful of wine.


    Following the scorching heat was a burst of coldness and numbness, but shortly after the numbness, the


    heart wrenching feeling would strike again.


    Sophia curled up at one corner, drinking wine ss after another as she was trying to numb herself so


    she wouldn’t feel the pain.


    She understood that Michael had simply bought her to take care of Nathan; all this while, there was


    someone else in his heart.


    Sophia was well aware that she shouldn’t crave for anything, but why did she fall in love with someone


    she shouldn’t uncontrobly?


    It was too painful to love Michael; he was too shiny, and he had too many people in his heart. In such a


    crowded space, Sophia couldn’t fit in.


    The drunk Sophia felt her world being turned upside down. Suddenly, she had the urge and courage to


    talk to Michael. She wanted to leave him before she fell too deeply in love; she wanted to leave him for


    good!


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    However, Sophia was so drunk that she didn’t have any energy. As she wobbled to the door but was


    unable to open it, she slouched on the floor by the door and watched the whole world spin around.


    Suddenly, she rushed toward her cupboard and found the love letter she had written for Michael a few


    days ago.


    As Sophia opened the love letter, she realized the letter she wrote for Michael had somehow changed in


    colour; the handwriting was different, and even the colour of the ink had changed.


    The first sentence on the love letter read, ‘I am a light.’


    ‘Haha. Love? What the f*ck!’


    Sophiaughed bitterly. She tore apart the letter fiercely and took two mouthfuls of wine before finding a


    comfortable ce to sleep.


    At that moment, Harry was in Vi No. 4. Although he rarely went back there, he hade back and


    stayed there only because he went tomb sweeping today.


    Sophia was already Michael’s woman.


    But…


    Just when he was hesitating with his phone in his hand, there was an iing call from Michael all of a


    sudden. After the call was connected, Michael sounded unusually down as he said, “Harry, can you


    make a trip here?”


    Harry was stunned. Is this about Sophia?


    Regardless of what happened, he had to head over to take a look.


    Immediately, Harry rushed to Vi No. 8. Upon entering the study, he saw Michael and his group of


    subordinates; it seemed like they had met some troubles.


    Michael knitted his brows and said, “Chica is in trouble.”


    He handed a postcard to Harry. On the front of the postcard was Michael’spany’s address


    beautifully written with a ball pen, and the recipient was Taylor.


    At the back of the postcard… was Sophia’s photo!


    It was a photo of her training in the military. Sophia squatted in the shade and tied up her shoces,


    revealing a red mark on her ankle—a faint mark of a wolf’s head.


    At the back of the postcard, there was a sentence beautifully written with a ball pen in a foreign


    language, ‘My precious!’


    My precious!


    My precious!


    My babe!


    When Harry saw the words, he felt numb in his head.


    It was a famous movie line from the movie ‘Lord Of The Rings.’ In the movie, there was a powerful magic


    ring; the magic ring was so strong that it could mess with people’s minds.


    When one obtained the magic ring, they would be a monster under the influence of its powers,


    demonstrating a crazy and fanatical desire to possess the ring. Furthermore, they often held the ring and


    said ‘My precious’ in an extremely obsessive tone.
