The Ice-Cold Executive Gets A Wife Novel - Chapter 176
Chapter 176: Mutual Attractio
“Sophia, what do you think of my brother?” Anita suddenly asked while lying on the bed in the dark.
She came back to school today because she heard Sophia had returned to the dormitory these two days. It had been a long time since she had been alone with Sophia.
“Huh?” Sophia didn’t expect Anita to ask her this question. She was stunned for a moment and answered, “He is a good… good leader…”
How was he? Of course, he was good. But, no matter how good he was, no one could surpass him no matter how hard they tried.
“You know, that’s not what my question implied. Right now, only we are in the dormitory. I’m asking you, what do you think of him?” Anita was also worried that Sebastian was too slow. Seeing the two of them holding hands today, she thought they had made good progress.
Unexpectedly, they were still polite and shy during dinner, but the only thing left was the thin ice that no one wanted to break. Anita was really worried for them.
“Sebastian is a very outstanding person.”
The longer she spent with Sebastian, the more Sophia felt that this person was rare and outstanding. Generally speaking, a CEO of a listed company who put his career first would have some flaws in his character, but Sebastian didn’t.
Although he was sometimes cold to others, it wasn’t a flaw in Sophia’s eyes. At least, he never was to her. Sophia remembered how considerate he was to her at the dinner table, and she smiled slightly in the darkness.
“Seb is a very outstanding person. There’s no doubt about that.” Anita fell silent after she said that as if she had recalled something sad in the past. After a while, she continued,
“Unfortunately, he is too cold. He can’t smile, and he’s not good at socializing. Perhaps because he’s the second child, our parents often neglect him. He always kept a distance from others, thinking that as long as he proved himself, he would win the respect of others. But during this time, I feel he has changed a lot. When he is with you, he is never cold. Sophia, I think Seb likes you. ”
Anita said it directly. Otherwise, she wasn’t sure how long her good friend and her brother would beat around the bush.
“Me?” Hearing her words, Sophia was stunned. She did not expect Anita to say it so directly.
“Sophia, don’t be shy. It’s not that you don’t know that you’re a beautiful girl and outstanding in all aspects. Seb is a normal boy. It is expected that he will fall for you. If Seb likes you, then you two can be together. You don’t have to worry about other things. Mom and Dad have always been very open-minded. You like him too, right?”
Sophia could feel Anita’s tone was firm and sincere, as if she intended to do this. However, she didn’t know whether she was happy or worried.
“Anita, are you sure this won’t trouble him?” Sophia asked hesitantly.
“What kind of trouble are you talking about? I don’t think Sebastian has ever been afraid of trouble. Otherwise, he wouldn’t hold your hand and protect you in public.”
What Anita said made Sophia blush. She had never thought that she would be moved by this. She had always thought that she only admired Sebastian. But after increasing frequent contact, she found that she had been curious about Sebastian for a long time, and now she even felt a sense of dependence.
“Anita, do you want us to be together?” Sophia asked. She was not sure what Anita meant, so she just asked tentatively.
“Me? Of course, I want you to be with Seb,” Anita said with certainty, “Because I think he is worthy of your love, and he treats you well.”
What Anita said surprised Sophia. She didn’t expect Anita to agree, which surprised her. Before Sophia met Sebastian, Anita said her brother would never be with anyone.
“Do you really agree?”
“Yes.”
“Anita, may I know why? I want to know why you agree for us to be together.”
“Silly, you like each other. Isn’t that enough?”
Sophia didn’t expect Anita to be so direct. The darkness gave them a sense of security and allowed them to talk more.
“Sophia, I hope you can be happy too.” Anita’s voice was very soft, but there was a hint of helplessness and loneliness in it.
Sophia could feel it. But she did not know how to respond, nor did she know what to do. She only listened quietly.
She could still feel the warmth of Sebastian’s palm wrapped around her hand. She had peeked at him, and he looked so determined that he didn’t care what people said..
