The Ice-Cold Executive Gets A Wife Novel - Chapter 135
Chapter 135: Different
Sebastian and Sophia were holding hands. Sebastian felt that Sophia’s hand was soft and slippery.
He was not an inexperienced man, but he felt that a force was pulling him from Sophia’s soft little hand this time.
Sebastian had never had feelings for anyone before, and he always felt that relationships were particularly troublesome for him. He thought that women were insatiable and that it was troublesome to ask for his money at first and then his time.
To him, women were simply the release of his own restless, stressful work and libido. He was willing to spend more time working and building his Wall Street Empire than hanging out with women.
But Sophia was different. She was self-sufficient, and he was willing to spend time with her.
He was willing to spend more time at the maternity store because he thought she might need it. He was willing to spend time in silence trying to understand her preferences, simply trying to help her make her life and work better because of his initiatives.
He did not feel that these were a waste of time. He even felt that he gained unprecedented satisfaction in this. When he founded NRTE, he felt this kind of satisfaction, too. But later, because NRTE’s business got increasingly better, his level of satisfaction decreased.
She just suddenly broke into his world, very abruptly. She had said something that made him laugh and cry, something so innocent that it aroused his possessiveness and protectiveness.
It was an unknowable change for him, and Sebastian wanted to turn that unknowable into knowable. To make her his woman.
But would she want to be his? She was pregnant. So, would she want to?
While Sebastian’s mind was racing, Sophia realized that she had lost her composure. She quickly tried to pull her hand back. But Sebastian didn’t seem to have any intention of letting go.
“I’m sorry. I misstepped.” Her voice was so quiet that it was impossible to hear her if he hadn’t paid attention.
“It’s okay. Be careful in the future,” Sebastian said with a smile. There was a hint of ambiguity in his eyes.
Ahh! Why was he smiling at her again? When he was not smiling, he was handsome. When he was smiling, he was even more handsome. Sophia was a little mesmerized. When she came back to her senses, her face immediately turned red again.
Damn it! Why was her face starting to get hot again? Don’t be so casual. Sebastian might think that she was too infatuated.
The first time she saw him, she had a nosebleed. Now, every time she saw him, her face would turn red, and her heart would race.
It was all his fault. He wouldn’t let go! That was why he made her so nervous!
“Erm… my hand,” Sophia said directly.
He wouldn’t be so indifferent this time.
At the same time, she tried to break away from Sebastian’s grasp again, but she failed.
Why did Sebastian look a little proud?
This made Sophia speechless. What was he proud of? Was he teasing her?
“What’s wrong? Are you uncomfortable?” She was, but… but what did he mean? “No. We shouldn’t be seen by others.”
“No? Why not?”
” “This…
“The CEO of NRTE enjoys helping others. Is that a bad thing?” It was clearly a question, but Sebastian said it affirmatively.
Why did it feel like Raphael’s style?
When Sebastian saw that Raphael had successfully wooed Olivia in just two days, he wondered if all girls would fall for Raphael’s tricks.
“No. It’s good. Very concerned about your staff.’
“That’s good. Don’t move.”
At this moment, Sebastian’s phone rang. He glanced at Sophia and hesitated for a moment. He let go of Sophia’s hand and answered the call.
“You go ahead, bro. I’ll go in first.” Sophia looked as if she had found help. She found an opportunity and quickly escaped.
They worked on the same floor. There was no such thing as separation. But Sophia really couldn’t find any excuses to leave.
Sebastian immediately switched to another hand to answer the phone. He grabbed Sophia’s hand again and even tightened his grip.
Her flustered and rambling look was really cute and funny.
Seeing her blushing face and looking around guiltily, Sebastian’s smile widened.
“What did you say?” Sebastian asked the person on the phone. It seemed to be something urgent.
Sophia gestured at him again, indicating that she would leave first. Sebastian nodded to express his approval.
‘Okay, I won’t tease her anymore.’ When he was about to let go, he didn’t forget to give her hand a squeeze.
“See you later!” Sophia lowered her head and ran in a panic to the elevator that was arriving..
