Chapter 387


    At the beginning, she was desperate like an abandoned puppy and was bought back home by Michael.


    This doomed her status in Michael’s heart. No matter what, she was destined to never be as good as


    Irene. Sophia was never satisfied with the present and only wanted to make herself better to be


    someone who could be on par with Michael.


    She dared not let herself rest while powerlessness and anxiety urged her to keep moving forward.


    Sophia was afraid that she would no longer be unique and excellent one day and could easily be


    reced. She wanted to stay by Michael’s side forever… To her, Michael was irreceable, but to him,


    she could be substituted at any time.


    All of a sudden, a hand reached out and was ced above Sophia’s small hand, catching some drops of


    the falling rain. On the knuckles were scars left behind from the fight during the day.


    Sophia didn’t know since when Michael started standing behind her silently. He ced one hand on her


    shoulder and caught droplets of the rain with the other. “What are you thinking about?” “Nothing,” she


    replied. Using his height as an advantage, Michael ced his chin on her head.


    He had thought about what happened during the day and knew that other than the fight, there seemed


    to be something else that Sophia was worried about. He knew that the reason was Irene, who suddenly


    showed up. However, Michael was really clear about his feelings—Sophia was the only person he


    loved.


    Nathan wanted a family and a mother so Michael had brought Sophia home to live under the same roof


    as him. His love for her gradually grew as he got along with her. In his eyes, her strength and small tricks


    were funny and cute so he wanted to love her, protect her, and spend the rest of his life with her.


    He kept her by his side not only to maintain thepleteness of their family but also because he loved


    her. As for Irene, it had been a long time ever since he became disgusted with her, as if she was a


    mosquito that he had hit against the wall.


    Meanwhile, he treated the person he loved like a warm nket over his shoulders that he could touch


    whenever he wanted. Come to think of it, this was the first time they sat together in silence.


    “It is said that a person will go through three rtionships in their life. One that is ignorant, one that is


    unforgettable, and thest one is simple and warm.” Michael was the first to speak. With that, he lowered


    his head and looked at Sophia, who was sitting beside him. “Chica, do you want to be my unforgettable


    love or my simple and warm love?”


    Sophia was dumbfounded. Other than the ignorant lover, the other two were given to Irene. As for


    Sophia, she also had one missing. The others were given to Richard.


    Michael looked at her but she didn’t answer even after a long time. At that moment, only the night lights


    were switched on in the room and all they could hear was the pitter patter of the rain from outside. The


    sound came in waves and it was steady and quiet, but it filled their worldpletely.


    Hearing the sound of rain, Sophia’s worries gradually calmed but she was still in a daze. One is an


    unforgettable rtionship and the other is simple and warm. Must I only choose one? Even though he


    will always remember an unforgettable rtionship, it will go by in a sh and wouldn’tst forever.


    A simple and warm rtionship canst a long time but it seems to be missing some excitement and


    passion. Love would then be as in as daily necessities and like rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and


    tea, it will eventually deteriorate. All the passion and excitement will be gradually worn away and


    disappear with time. Meanwhile, Michael kept his head lowered, waiting for Sophia’s answer.


    In the darkness of the night, all he could see was the soft and delicate outline of her lowered head that


    conveyed her sorrow and anxiety. After a long time, Sophia looked up at him and asked seriously,“Can I


    be both your unforgettable, as well as simple and warm love?”


    As soon as she uttered those words, it was as if the world went silent. Sophia looked at Michael uneasily,


    afraid he would dislike her greed. Yes, I want to be unforgettable and I want to have a simple and warm


    rtionship. I want to spend the rest of my life with him but I don’t want our love for each other to


    gradually disappear. We have to at least keep our passion for each other going.

    The two of them looked at each other and it seemed like a long time had passed before Michael


    suddenly lowered his head and smiled. Leaning his forehead against hers, he said, “You greedy little


    thing. Since you want to be both my unforgettable and simple and warm love, you should also give


    something in exchange. If you can show me something that touches me, maybe I’ll consider.”


    Sophia hurriedly grabbed his shirt. “I’ll exchange my unforgettable love with yours. I’ll exchange my


    simple and warm love with yours. Will that do?”


    She looked at him nervously, hoping that he would say what she wanted to hear. However, Michael didn’t


    say anything in reply. Instead, he stroked her head and chuckled. “Are we memorizing lines? Why are we


    talking about unforgettable love and simple and warm love? It’s difficult to even pronounce these words.


    I’ve never acted in a romance drama but I used to be a soldier.


    Soldiers like me have always been straightforward, so I’ll only ask you one question.” Michael then lifted


    Sophia’s chin and in a serious manner that he never had before, he asked, “Sophia Edwards, are you


    willing to sleep with me for the rest of our lives?”


    Sophia couldn’t help butugh. Then, she put her hands around his arms and leaned forward to kiss him


    deeply as she whispered, “Yes.”


    It rained the whole night but the weather the next day was great. When Sophia got up early and opened


    the window, the air was very fresh and it seemed to smell sweet. It was as if she was in a particrly


    good mood after talking to Michael.


    It was the weekend so Michael didn’t have to head out to meet the cast. All he wanted to do was spend


    the weekend with his young bride. However, there were always calls that disturbed their alone time. Sure


    enough, Michael received a call that day after breakfast. He had already set up the smart anti-


    harassment setting on his phone so calls that he didn’t want to pick up couldn’te through. Those


    who could call him were definitely extraordinary people.


    As soon as the call was connected, Michael heard Old Master Fletcher’s energetic voice. It seemed that


    Mark was in a good mood that day because he immediately called Michael by his nickname. “Mikey, it’s


    the weekend. Ask Sophie to bring Nate over to y.”


    Michael put down the phone and felt a little reluctant. He was about to tell Sophia about this when he


    saw that she had already dressed and was leaving in a hurry.


    “Sean called a moment ago and told me that Natasha suddenly went to the beachside vi to pick up my


    grandfather. She told him that she was taking my grandfather to the militarypound. I have to go


    check it out.” As she spoke, she went out in a hurry.


    Natasha always had a purpose whenever she visited Woody. She even brought Woody to the military


    compound this time so she must have an agenda. Whether she was trying to hurt Mark or Woody,


    Sophia had to go and see.


    Natasha brought Woody to the militarypound? Michael also started to get anxious. When he saw


    Sophia leave in a hurry, he wanted to follow her to check it out too. However, he hadn’t returned to the


    Fletcher family in ten years…


    Seeing Sophia leave the house, Nathan hurried to catch up with her.
