The Ice-Cold Executive Gets A Wife Novel - Chapter 134

Sophia felt a little disappointed when she heard Sebastian’s tone. She felt a little guilty.

He was right. She deliberately avoided Sebastian because she didn’t know how to face him. Now, she felt a little more at ease.

However, after such a long time, she and Norman didn’t have any sort of relationship apart from quarreling. There was nothing between the two of them at all.

“There’s nothing between him and me. Don’t make wild guesses, okay?” Sophia’s eyes were still closed. “Bro,” she added.

Bro? Sebastian’s heart trembled as if the sense of distance from before had suddenly disappeared.

The corner of Sebastian’s mouth twitched. “Okay.”

Sophia heard Sebastian’s reply and slowly opened her eyes. She looked at Sebastian’s side profile and felt much better.

“Right,” Sophia said. “Just let me down at the intersection in front. I’ll walk a few steps.”

Compared to NRTE, which had more people and more mouths, Sophia recalled the rumors in the elevator. If she and Sebastian arrived at the office together, it was inevitable that people would gossip about them.

She was not afraid. She was only worried that he would be affected. After all, he was the CEO of NRTE, and she was just a pregnant intern.

“Are you embarrassed about being seen with me?” Sebastian asked, his voice not loud but very powerful.

What was going on in his brain?

“No, no, I want to buy some food downstairs.” Sophia quickly found an excuse and denied it.

“You don’t like the chef on the twenty-third floor?”

“No, no, My cravings change every day. I’m afraid it’ll be troublesome to him.”

“The salary I gave him is enough for him to be bothered. You can use that service.”

. ‘ she didn’t know what she should say, so she simply didn’t say anything.

“What else?” Sebastian saw that although Sophia didn’t say anything, she looked troubled.

“I’m afraid that… We will be misunderstood together.”

“Is there anything between us that is worth being misunderstood?”

Yes and no.

“But…” Sophia swallowed the last part of her sentence.

“Sophia, are you still the same Sophia that I know? The same Sophia who wasn’t afraid at the conference and was full of confidence in the face of those who doubted you?”

Yes, ever since she started her career, she had become less confident because there were too many outstanding people. She felt like a tiny speck in the vast sea.

Was his tone too harsh just now? Did she feel that she was looked down upon? Sebastian was a little annoyed. He really didn’t mean that.

“No, I’m just a little scared. I’m afraid that being seen together will affect you. After all…” Sophia said in a low voice. She looked at her abdomen.

“Affect me? You’re so stupid. How could I be affected?”

“Me… too.” ‘I’m afraid that everyone’ll misunderstand you. After all, you don’t know how bad their gossips were in the elevator.’ The words were on the tip of her tongue, but she swallowed them. She couldn’t tell him that and seemed very conflicted. She looked like she wanted to say something, but she hesitated. She was obviously worried about something.

“You’re the only one who’s not afraid. I’m fine.” There was a rare tenderness in Sebastian’s eyes.

Sophia’s heart skipped a beat. This man was usually cold, but it really made her heart soar when he was gentle.

“I got it, bro. Thank you. Let’s go.” Sophia’s heart beat faster. What Sebastian meant was… she had misunderstood. However, Sebastian said that he was not afraid of any misunderstandings. Sophia cursed herself for overthinking.

Sebastian drove into the underground garage.

That car… was it Sebastian’s?

Daisy recalled the night when Sebastian pressed her against the side of the car and threatened her fiercely, and shivered.

Was there someone sitting in the passenger seat? Daisy turned her steering wheel and followed the car.

The car stopped in the underground parking lot.

“Get out of the car,” Sebastian said.

Sophia got out of the car and followed behind Sebastian. He walked very slowly as if he was waiting for Sophia.

“Ah!” Sophia was absent-minded and accidentally misstepped. It was nothing, but she scared herself.

Sebastian was also scared and subconsciously reached out to hold her hand.

‘This feels good.’ Sophia thought.

‘Her hand is soft.’ Sebastian thought.

Sophia and Sebastian? There was something wrong with them!

No! Did they go to work together in the morning? And talk and laugh? What was their relationship now? Were they a couple?

Did he find out that he slept with Sophia that night?

‘What was going on? Why were they holding hands? No way! Then, I have no chance at all.’ Daisy, who was sitting in the car, was almost driven mad by the scene in front of her.

Recalling Sebastian’s attitude toward her the other night, Daisy’s grip around the phone in her hand tightened.

She kept zooming in and pressing the shutter button of the phone.

‘Sophia, just you wait. Even if you are together, I will not let you have it so easy!’

For the first time, Daisy wanted someone so badly, and for the first time, she wanted to destroy someone..
