The Ice-Cold Executive Gets A Wife Novel - Chapter 166
Chapter 166: I’m Late
Sophia heaved a sigh of relief, but why did Sebastian sound so strange on the other end of the phone? He seemed to be a little absent-minded. Maybe he was busy with company matters. Sophia didn’t know why she was a little disappointed.
“Okay, bro.”
After hanging up the phone, Sophia walked to the bed and lay down. Her mind was filled with Sebastian’s reaction just now.
The phone call made Sophia feel a sense of distance from Sebastian. Maybe he was busy with something at the moment, which made Sophia feel a little nervous. However, it was probably because of her pregnancy that she thought too much. She comforted herself.
“Why? Was your leave declined? I’ll go to Raphael and ask him to help talk to Sebastian. Really!” Olivia assumed that when she noticed that Sophia was a little stunned. She would do anything for Sophia.
“No, no. He asked me to take care of whatever I needed to do before going back,” Sophia explained absent-mindedly.
After she brought Olivia back to the dormitory, Olivia insisted that she lie on the bed and rest.
It was obvious that Anita had not been back for some time. Some corners were covered in a thin layer of dust.
Sophia saw Olivia busily cleaning up the dormitory. She felt lucky that she had a friend taking care of her since she was a child. She was even older than Olivia by a few months, but Olivia always treated her like a child, giving in to everything, afraid that she would suffer.
Later, when the two were no longer in the same school, Olivia often came over for a visit.
With her, the two spent more and more time together, and they became more and more intimate, like a pair of sisters.
Sophia lay in bed, watching Olivia as she busied herself, and her heart felt warm. Before she knew it, she had fallen asleep.
She dreamed that she was bathing by a river. The water there was very clear. She could see a big boat moving slowly down the river. While in the middle of the river was a small docked yacht. The lights on the yacht were flickering. It looked like a ghost.
All of this made Sophia nervous. She thought that maybe she was hallucinating, but it really didn’t seem like an illusion.
Sophia kept thinking about what she saw on the yacht. A gust of cold wind blew, and Sophia couldn’t help but shiver. The coldness made her feel very uncomfortable.
Just when Sophia felt that she was about to suffocate, the cabin door of the yacht was opened, and a foot appeared. Then, she saw a man walking out.
His face was very blurry. Sophia could not remember where she had seen him before, but there was an uncomfortable aura around him.
Sophia wanted to escape, but she could not move at all.
She had to close her eyes and shout, “Help! Help!” But she could not make a sound.
The man ignored Sophia and walked straight toward the riverbank.
Sophia opened her eyes and saw the man walking toward her. She quickly covered her eyes with her hands and shouted, “Don’t come near! Please, don’t let him see me…”
Her cry for help attracted the others, but everyone was shocked by the man’s appearance. They stood there in a daze, not daring to move or speak.
Sophia felt her ears buzzing, and she felt that the whole world went silent.
At this moment, a man suddenly bent down and picked Sophia up.
“Ah!” It was a familiar sense of security, but she could not see his face clearly either.
Sophia was shocked by the man’s action, and her screaming stopped abruptly. She widened her eyes in disbelief and looked at the man holding her.
“What… What are you doing? Let me go!” She struggled to get out of the man’s arms. However, the more she struggled, the tighter the man held her. It was so tight that Sophia could not breathe. Her chest rose and fell violently, and her face was red.
Sophia did not dare to move anymore. She felt her body trembling slightly. She felt her heart pounding as if it would jump out of her throat at any moment. She had to take a deep breath to stabilize her heartbeat.
At this moment, Sophia suddenly smelled a familiar scent. She suddenly looked up and saw a handsome face.
“Se… Sebastian.” Sophia couldn’t believe her eyes.
“Sorry, I’m late,” he said gently.
Sebastian didn’t say anything else and just looked at her. His eyes were filled with love as if he would melt her.
Seeing Sebastian like this, Sophia couldn’t help but feel a shiver in her heart.
No one knew where the people around them had gone. Only Sophia and Sebastian stood there, staring at each other for a long time.
Olivia watched Sophia’s eyebrows slowly relax in her sleep and finally felt relieved..
