Drenched in Love -
Chapter 100: The Person She Thought Of In Her Mind Was Stephen
Stephen looked at Sophia suspiciously, and Sophia immediately lowered her head, and griped her phone tightly.
When Stephen sat down at the table to continue to eat, he looked at her again, "What's wrong with you?"
Sophia hurriedly shook her head, "No... nothing."
That's what she said, but when she was serving Stephen the meal, Sophia kept turning her head to look at the clock hanging on the wall.
Stephen looked at her and said, "Sophia, if you have something to say, you better tell me now. If you let me know afterwards..."
He didn't finished his sentence, but Sophia knew that the consequences would only be more serious than she had imagined. "Yes. I know." She replied with her head lowing.
After the meal, Stephen went to the study to handle the business issues, and Sophia made a cup of coffee and brought it up.
Stephen reached out to take it and took a sip to continue the video conference. Sophia looked at Stephen, hesitating to tell him the truth. The first thing she needed to do was to tell him that she was leaving, but once she told him, she knew that he would not let her go. Stephen noticed that Sophia was unusual, and called off the video conference, turned his head and asked Sophia, "What's the matter, tell me."
"I... Mr. Berry, I want to..."
Stephen looked at her, with the expectation and encouragement in his eyes.
Sophia bit her lips, then shook her head. She still dared not to say it.
Just now she wanted to say to Stephen that she was going to send her brother off at ST Internaional Airport and would be back soon. But when the words came to her mouth, she couldn't say it. From Stephen's side, lying was definitely a sin. Stephen's face fell, "Since you have nothing to say, then just go out." Sophia lowered her head and when she was about to leave, Stephen said again, "My meeting will be over in half an hour, so you can put the bath water on for me in advance." Sophia nodded her head and left.
When Stephen came out of the study and went to the bathroom, it was already 10:30 p.m. She only had one hour left. If she drove her car as fast as she could, it would take forty minutes to get to the airport from here.
In other words, she must make a decision within twenty minutes, to say or not to say.
She must go. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for her to reconcile with her father and Calvin, if she did not go... Sophia couldn't image if she could have another chance in her life to get the forgiveness from her father and Calvin. The question now was whether to tell Stephen the truth or not.
This time Stephen did not let Sophia serve him to take a shower, Sophia only waited outside. The time was passing as the clock ticked, Sophia was getting more and more anxious.
Forget it! I should go directly... and then send a text message to Stephen to apologize after getting off the plane.
Sophia looked around and sneaked out of the bedroom. Just as she took a step, Stephen's voice came out from the bathroom, "Sophia."
Sophia was startled and immediately stood up straight, trying to control her fast-beating heart and asked, "I'm here. Mr. Berry, what can I do for you?"
"There was no soap in my bathroom, you just go out and buy some back."
Sophia was happy to hear this: this was a great opportunity. She controlled her voice and tried to calm herself down a bit, "Yes, Mr. Berry, I will go now."
Driving out of the Berry villa, Sophia pressed hard on the accelerator and headed straight to ST Internaional Airport. She looked at the road ahead while staring at the time on the car screen from time to time: 9:45, she still had forty-five minutes left to head to the airport. Sophia bit her red lips tightly and drove even faster.
In the Berry villa.
Stephen got out of the bathtub, his body was not entirely dry, and he only wore a bath towel around his waist. He was standing in front of the window with a goblet in his hand, his eyes all fixed on the wide road outside the villa.
In ST Internaional Airport
Vincent, together with Ella and Luis sent Calvin off. From time to time, Calvin and Ella looked at the entrance of the lobby, where people were coming in and out, but none of them were the ones they wanted to see.
Calvin clenched his fist, "Sophia, this is the last chance I give you. You better not let me down."
Ella gritted her teeth, "Sophia, you'd better come here today, or don't blame me for being ruthless!"
A gentle female voice came out of the airport radio and reminded the boarding.
Calvin looked at the entrance of the lobby, he still didn't see Sophia. The slightest hope in his heart also completely disappeared. He smiled and said goodbye to Vincent's family, "Brother Vincent, Ella, Luis, I'm going to board. I'll come back to see you guys later when I have time. Bye." Calvin pulled his suitcase and left.
At the very moment he turned around, Sophia parked her car at the entrance of the lobby. Getting off from the car, she hurriedly ran inside. Because she ran to fast, she almost slipped and fell. "Calvin! Calvin! I'm coming!"
Calvin, who was about to disappear in the crowd, suddenly turned around. Vincent looked at Sophia, his face was filled with excitement, "Sophia, you... " Ella took out the long-prepared boarding pass from her bag and gave it to Sophia, "Go now! There's no time!" Sophia looked at Ella, and took the boarding pass and ran in to replace Calvin. At this time, she did not know whether she should hate her or thank her. She stole her boyfriend and set herself up wickedly, she should hate her. But then she helped convince Calvin to take her to the United States. In this matter, she should be grateful to her.
Vincent frowned and looked at Ella.
Ella still had the joy of success on her face: Just go, Sophia. After you leave, don't ever come back!
"What's going on here?" Vincent asked.
Ella pursed her lips and looked at Vincent, "I'm a generous girl, I help Sophia and let Calvin take her to America to meet her family. Why are you looking at me like that? I help her and make her happy, aren't you happy about it?" Without waiting for Vincent to say anything, Ella picked up Luis and turned around to leave.
Ella just left the lobby, but did not leave the airport. Because, she had to watch the plane take off with her own eyes and see it disappear so that she could be at ease forever.
Calvin bought two tickets whose seats were adjacent to each other.
Sophia held the phone and looked excitedly at Calvin who was sitting next to her. She wanted to speak to Calvin, but when she saw Calvin coldly turn his face away, she had to shut her mouth.
When the plane started to take off, Sophia looked out the window. At this time, the person she thought of in her mind was Stephen: Stephen once knew she had run away, he would definitely be furious. However, she must go. Stephen, I'm sorry. Sophia said silently in her heart. She lowered her head and held her phone tightly.000
