Revenge On My First Love
Chapter 183 We Are Not in Love

Sophia stared up at him in disbelief. "How amazing! I never expect you to beg me for help."

"I don't think my mother and Aria could get along soon. Aria needs to be taken care of, so she must stay in this villa. I can tell she has become obedient to you after you rescued her. Sophia, can you please come to see them often from now on? I'm a man, and sometimes I lose my temper. You are different. I'm sure Aria will listen to your suggestions."

"Besides, if my mother doesn't feel well, she could tell you. Although we've been in touch over the years, you are closer to her than I am."

Sophia was amazed again as she hadn't expected to hear Drake talk so much in her life.

"What if I say no?"

"You won't. I know you care about my mother."

He was right. Sophia couldn't leave Emma alone. Even if Drake didn't ask her, she would visit Emma occasionally. However, since Drake said so, it became a favor. "All right. I'll come here often."

"Ehn."

"The trouble you've made to my company..."

"I'll solve it."

No matter what, Sophia couldn't leave Sealand for the time being. Therefore, Drake didn't need to do anything to her company.

"All right."

When Sophie returned to her office, Chloe felt Sophia had again fallen into Drake's trap.

Although she didn't know anything, she remarked, "Sophia, believe it or not? You'll never escape from Drake."

Sophia glanced at her without replying.

"What's that look for?"

"I can't agree with you more."

Chloe continued excitedly, "I knew it! I could tell you must have had an agreement with him. He has stopped making trouble for our company, but you don't look like you are leaving Sealand. I guess he must have done something to you. Sophia, tell me. I'm strong to take it."

Sophia told him what had happened earlier.

Chloe gaped at her in disbelief. "So you agreed?"

"I had to. I can't leave Ms. Glass alone after such things happened."

Her words made sense.

"Noah..."

"I'll talk to him," Sophia answered.

However, she had a migraine when thinking about Noah's stubbornness.

By the end of the day, Sophia called Noah out for dinner.

Noah was delighted. However, a bad hunch rose in his heart after he met Sophia.

"Sophia, Edwin and Bard told me you would return to Pinkerton either today or tomorrow. Do you want to tell me you'll stay?"

After all, they grew up together, so Noah could easily read her mind.

"Exactly. I will stay here and cannot go home for the time being."

"What did Drake do to you again, Sophia? Why can't you see through his purpose?"

He looked disappointed. Sophia answered, "He didn't do anything to me this time. I cannot leave because of my teacher."

Noah was taken aback and realized something. "I see. Your teacher did something to you, didn't she? She's on the same side as Drake, so she..."

"No. You are wrong," Sophia interrupted him affirmatively. "Ms. Glass didn't say anything. Something happened to the Riley family. Aria is staying with Ms. Glass now. As you know, Aria thought Olivia was her mother for many years. It will take time for her to get along well with her birth mother. Ms. Glass needs me, so I cannot leave."

"Sophia, that's the Riley family's business. It's none of your concern."

"I know. I don't plan to get involved. I only need to take care of Ms. Glass. After Aria gets along well with her, I'll leave."

Noah smiled. "Tell me, Sophia. Can you return to Pinkerton by then?"

Sophia considered it for a while and answered, "Beats me. If I want to leave, no one can stop me."

"But I don't think you want to leave. Sophia, Drake asked you if you still loved him in so many people's presence last night. I can tell he's confident of winning your heart back. Have you made up your mind, Sophia?"

Staring at him, Sophia replied, "Noah, thank you for everything you've done for me. Since I met Drake, I cannot do things rationally. I'll probably reconcile with him one day, but I'm sure I won't be with you." "Sorry, Noah..."

Noah had heard such words so many times that he didn't want to listen anymore.

"All right. Since you've decided to stay here, I'll also stay here."

Sophia stared at him helplessly. "Noah, don't you have something to deal with in your family? You cannot stay here. Go home."

"Think those things will matter to me without you? No, they won't. Sophia, you are always the only one I want."

Sophia heaved a sigh and couldn't do anything.

"You don't have to repeatedly refuse me. Anyway, I'll only leave when I give up. I haven't, so I won't go home."

Sophia sighed. "What would you like to eat? It's on me tonight."

"No, thanks. It's on me."

When Cecelia passed by the restaurant, she saw them.

With an evil smile, she had an idea suddenly.

Then she sneaked in and talked to a waitress.

Since Cecelia gave her a lot of money and told her she wanted to surprise the two, the waitress agreed and did as she was told.

The waitress walked to Noah and Sophia. "Excuse me, mister and miss. Congratulations! You are at the 88th table in our restaurant. We provide a gift for our 88th diners. I can tell you are lovers, so we'll give you the gift if you play a game with us."

Sophia denied, "I'm not his girlfriend."

Noah glanced at her.

The waitress asked in surprise, "Aren't you? You look like a perfect match."

"Sorry..."

Before Sophia finished her words, Noah interrupted with a smile, "She's right. We're not in love yet. I'm pursuing her."

"It's alright. You can still play the game and gain the gift. The gift is valuable and meaningful. Please follow me." Sophia was unwilling to go, but Noah dragged her. "Come on, Sophia. We're lucky today. Let's play the game." He dragged her into following the waitress.

The waitress explained, "If you can take some group photos as we ask, you'll receive the gift soon."
