The Ice-Cold Executive Gets A Wife Novel - Chapter 161
Chapter 161: Phillips’ Party
Phillips still remembered his nervousness that night, which lasted the whole night.
He soon saw Sophia at the party. She was so dazzling just standing in the crowd. She chatted comfortably with others and would raise a glass of alcohol from time to time, and there was always a blond boy hanging around her. He was very handsome.
“Hello, classmate. May I know the name of the blond boy?” This was the first thing he said at the party, and it was also the one he had been holding back for a long time.
Phillips did not know why he felt a little upset. When he arrived, he had already given himself a prep talk. He did not expect tomake any progress with Sophia.
After all, they had not seen each other for more than a year. Who knew if Sophia had someone else. But when he saw that there was indeed someone and that the other person was so handsome, Phillips felt conflicted.
“What? What did you say? The music is too loud. I can’t hear you. Speak up.” The girl who was asked the question was a little impatient. It seemed that her night was not going as planned.
Phillips could only raise his voice and ask again.
“You don’t even know that? It’s our campus’ playboy, Norman.” The girl looked at Phillips in disdain.
Playboy? Did Sophia like that type of boy? This was far from his perception of her.
At that moment, Phillips felt inferior. He never thought that he was special because he knew that although he was an excellent student, his family was not bad compared to the average.
However, compared to the attractive Sophia and Norman, he was so ordinary. He never dared to expect that anyone would take a fancy to his talent.
He found that he was far inferior to his peers, talking and laughing. He could only sit quietly on the sidelines and listen to others talk.
He felt very helpless, but there was no way to change the situation, so he remained silent. He was also thinking about approaching Sophia, at least to talk to her.
The girl he questioned earlier sat on the sofa closest to him and dragged him down.
“Why aren’t you talking? Is your throat broken?” The girl saw that Phillips didn’t answer for a long time and continued to mock him.
“No. I don’t know how to have a conversation,” Phillips quickly explained. Even if it was a random person, he tried his best to be polite.
“Then, drink up. Cheers.” The girl raised her glass and giggled.
“Cheers,” Phillips said softly, but his gaze was stuck on Sophia.
He quickly passed out after one or two glasses, lying on the table unconscious.
By the time Phillips woke up, it was already midnight. He felt pain all over his body as if he was falling apart.
He slowly opened his eyes and saw a dark shadow sitting by his bed. When he took a closer look, it was Sophia. At that moment, his heart beat violently. He was so excited that he did not know what could describe what his heart was doing. He could not believe that he was in such a dream.
Phillips quietly walked over and reached out to gently stroke Sophia’s hair. He did not know what to say. He only felt that Sophia did not seem to be asleep. He even smelled the faint fragrance of Sophia’s body, which made him very excited. This was the smell of the person he liked.
He was willing to stay drunk and not wake up if this was a dream.
“Hey, hey! Don’t fall asleep here! Hey! Seriously!” The girl complained, but she did not sound impatient. Maybe Phillips was hallucinating.
“Anita, another down. Which room do I take him to?” The girl who had been chatting with Phillips all night asked kindly. It seemed that she did not hate him that much. She was just in a bad mood.
“Whichever. I have left the door open for all the rooms on the third floor. Just enter any one of them!” In his daze, Phillips saw the hostess named Anita shrug. She indicated to Phillips that he could sleep in any room. She did not care about the rest and had no intention of going upstairs.
There were sounds of men and women having sex from some rooms. Phillips recalled that he seemed to have accidentally bumped into a man who was also drunk. By looking at his back, he could only feel that this man had a strong aura. The guy acted as if he had walked into his home and opened a room door at random.
After that, Phillips could not remember anything else.
“Phillips, what business do you have with me?” A familiar yet unfamiliar voice sounded. It was a voice that he had been longing for.
Sophia and Olivia arrived together. She was a little rounder than before, giving her a softer edge..
