The Ice-Cold Executive Gets A Wife Novel - Chapter 97
Chapter 97: Alone Together
“How much have you finished?” A deep, magnetic male voice asked.
Sophia was so engrossed in her work that she was shocked by the voice.
Sebastian stood behind Sophia. Sophia didn’t know whether he was staring at the screen or her.
“More than 30% .” She didn’t stop working because he was there.
It had only been an hour, and he was already rushing her?
“Go eat first.” There was a hint of concern in Sebastian’s tone, but he also kept a distance.
He came to remind Sophia that she had not left for the food after such a long time.
At this moment, Sophia was trying to prove herself because of a small mistake she had made before. On the one hand, Sebastian was gratified by her hard work. On the other hand, he was really worried that she would work too hard, so he reminded her to go back and rest early.
He knew that she had always been serious about her work, or even too seriously about it. However, it should not be to the extent that she would not even eat dinner. After all, she was pregnant. Her body might not be able to withstand such an abnormal diet.
“Thank you. I’m not hungry. I’ll be done in a minute,” Sophia looked at her computer screen and quickly replied.
She was only 30% done. How could she be done in a minute?
“You go ahead and don’t worry about me.” Sebastian was behind her, and Sophia couldn’t help but feel distracted.
“Grumble…” Sophia recognized that it wasn’t her stomach. So, it must be…
“Grumble…” Sebastian’s stomach let out another muffled sound. Only then did he remember that he hadn’t eaten either.
This sound shocked Sophia. She turned around and looked at him. Hadn’t he eaten either? Sebastian looked awkwardly at his stomach, his expression a little funny.
This was very different from his usual self. But it made Sophia feel that Sebastian was more like an ordinary person than the perfect person he was trying to be. A man who was not so different from her.
Was Sebastian waiting for her to eat? Did he mean to ask her to eat with him?
Sophia suddenly felt guilty.
“Well… I’m sorry, bro. I didn’t know you were waiting for me. We’ll go to eat right away,” she explained immediately and clicked on the ‘save’ button to get up.
Who was waiting for her… Sebastian’s expression became even weirder.
But when his gaze moved from the computer screen to Sophia, his eyes were full of tenderness and adoration. He felt that Sophia, a little flustered, was adorable.
Sophia couldn’t help but blush and lower her head under Sebastian’s gaze.
She didn’t dare to raise her head to meet his eyes. She only followed him to the dining room obediently.
“These all look very delicious.” Phil was Sebastian’s personal chef. The food on the table looked both amazing and delicious. Sophia couldn’t help but taste it. It was even more delicious than she had imagined!
Sebastian looked at Sophia’s moving cutlery with a satisfied smile.
“Thank you, bro. The last time I had such a satisfying dish was made by Professor Sanders.” Sophia began to relax after her stomach was filled.
“Huh? Professor Sanders?”
“Oh, it’s my senior, Felix’s father.” Sophia didn’t know why she had to explain it to him
“Oh?” Senior? Besides calling him ‘bro’, did she also call other men ‘bro’? There was no difference between him and other men then? Felix? He didn’t sound like a good person, just like Norman.
He didn’t seem very happy. How could someone’s mood change so quickly? Just a second ago, he appeared to be smiling.
“He’s a math genius in our school. Bro, you probably don’t know him either. Let’s not talk about it. I’ll hurry up and finish the PowerPoint presentation for you.” Sophia didn’t know how to continue this conversation. She could only find an excuse to escape.
She hadn’t finished the PowerPoint presentation yet.
“Okay, I’ll wait for you.” He watched her leave in a hurry, but the anger in his heart slowly dissipated.
Judging from the expression on her face when she mentioned that Felix, he was just an ordinary schoolmate. There should be no problem. Hopefully, that was the case.
Sebastian did not know when he began to care about Sophia. In the beginning, he was attracted by her pure and innocent appearance and her soft and delicate voice. The more he communicated with her, the more he found something else about her that attracted him even more.
Sebastian felt that she was very different from other girls. She had an indescribable charm.
Not only was she a beautiful girl, but she was also strong-willed. She was not always attached to others, nor was she always avoiding him. He felt that Sophia was more interesting than he had imagined.
The night on the twenty-third floor was quiet, and Sebastian could hear her fingers tapping on the keyboard not far away, and he felt a strange sense of relief..
