Chapter 149 144: Don't Reject Me
Even Sophia herself didn't know what her feelings were at the moment.
Just existed within the chaotic and vague boundaries.
Watching her in silence, a glimmer of light flickered in Derick's eyes. He reached out and gently held her in his arms. Sophia's body shuddered slightly
Derick gently patted her back, his voice warm and soothing:
"I was very happy, you didn't reject me, Sophia, you knew all my feelings, they would never change."
"I hoped you could become the true mistress here, and I hoped even more that you could stay, stay by my side."
This was the first time he confronted their relationship directly since she had woken up.
Pierced through this layer of window paper.
Sophia pursed her lips, appearing somewhat hesitant:

""Derick, I..."
She couldn't accept someone when she couldn't distinguish between gratitude and feelings.

At least it wasn't now.
Derick seemed to know what she was about to say, and he gentlemanly let go of her hand, looking at her with warm and gentle eyes:
"Sophia, don't rush to reject me. I just want you to know my feelings. I won't force you to like me, but you should at least give me a chance, okay?" He had a good sense of propriety.
no
When she felt uncomfortable, she took a step back.
Sophia met his gaze and smiled:
"Alright, Derick, I can't promise good results, but we both did our best, okay?"
She didn't beat around the bush, she straightforwardly offered the opportunity. 10.05%

She didn't explicitly say yes, leaving room for either of them to back out.
Derick's eyes lit up, this answer had exceeded his expectations.
The corners of his mouth lifted noticeably as he embraced her once again.
Then it was instantly released.
It was evident that the happiness was truly uncontrollable.
"Alright, Sophia, I was really so happy!"
He looked at Sophia's delicate features and the corners of her eyes filled with tears, feeling a slight stir in his heart.
He resisted the urge to kiss.
"Go to bed early, I was going to clean up Laurent tomorrow."
Once he had dealt with Laurent, he would be able to free up his hands and focus on Sophia.

"So were you."
Sophia waved, smiling as she turned and entered the room.
Her feeling was very mysterious at that time.
For Derick, she went from being a stranger to familiar, to now being close.
It seemed as though she carried a hint of anticipation in her heart, the anticipation for the beginning of a new life and new emotions.
She couldn't indulge in the past forever.
She would have a brand new start.
When she returned to her country and told Brycen and Cecilia the news, they would probably be happy, right?
She smiled and walked over to the couch on the balcony, quietly watching the outside.
After a few moments of anticipation, there was no longer any flutter in my heart.

The next day.
Sophia slept until she woke up naturally.
She had gone down to have breakfast before the servant arranged for the doctor to come for a consultation.
The doctor had finished the consultation.
Suddenly, Sophia thought of something and asked with a smile:
"I felt my body was recovering well, was it almost better?"
The doctor nodded, "Yes, madam, the inflammation in your lungs has almost healed, and we have used the best medicine to remove the scars on your body. You will be fine after taking the medicine for a while longer." Sophia smiled, "Can I borrow your phone?"
The doctor was taken aback.
"Madam, about the mobile phone..."
The color of their faces subtly changed.
Sophia frowned, "I know you listened to Derick. I just wanted to

make a call to my friend, who is also in Mautiland."
She felt it was no big deal.
She just didn't contact people in her home country.
But her younger uncle Edmund had been in Mautiland for several years!
The doctors looked at each other.
This issue really troubled them.
"Sorry, madam, Mr. Woodward had instructed us not to help you contact outsiders privately."
They nodded apologetically and then left one by one.
Sophia's smile faded.
A hint of strangeness crossed her mind.
Was contact with outsiders privately forbidden?
Even if it wasn't domestic?

Why did he guard so strictly?
Even if I contacted home using someone else's phone, it wouldn't have been possible for people to notice immediately!
She felt somewhat uneasy deep down.
Didn't know why.
She didn't personally call her family to assure them of her safety...
A few minutes later.
Sophia changed into an outfit to go out and then went downstairs.
The servant saw her coming down and immediately went up to meet her:
"Madam, would you like to take a stroll in the garden?"
Sophia chuckled, "No, I'm going out for shopping."
The servant's face changed:
"Madam, your health has not yet recovered..." 55.10%

"My body was already better, and there was nothing wrong all day yesterday."
"But the gentleman didn't allow...
The servant had a somewhat panicked and anxious expression on his face.
Sophia was somewhat displeased deep down:
"I just went out for a stroll, why don't you guys ask him for me?"
She harbored some resentment in her heart.
Did I agree too readily last night?
The servant thought for a moment, then decided to let the driver ask Derick.
Very quickly.
The driver returned with the phone in his hand and handed it to Sophia.
"Madam, the gentleman's call..."

Sophia took it over, enduring the discomfort, her eyes and eyebrows speaking volumes.
The warm and clear voice of Derick came through the phone:
*Sophia, were you bored at home? If you wanted to go out, could the driver accompany you?"
Sophia didn't expect him to agree so readily.
Suddenly, it was somewhat unexpected.
She snorted coldly, "I thought I was imprisoned!"
Derick chuckled softly:
"I was afraid that Laurent would deliberately seek revenge and harm you, so I had them watch over you and not let you go out. There was no other intention."
"The driver is also a bodyguard, let him follow you, it puts my mind at ease."
Sophia glanced at the burly, bearded driver in front of her and nodded.
"Good."

She didn't intentionally seek death either, she was also afraid of danger.
She merely wanted to go out and borrow a phone from
someone.
Hung up the phone.
The phone was taken back by the driver.
Sophia tugged at the corner of her mouth and got straight into the car.
"Madam, where did you want to go?"
Sophia thought for a moment, "Let's go to the coffee shop on Wall Street!"
The driver frowned slightly, but still started the car.
Her uncle Edmund's company was on Wall Street.
If we could have met by chance, it would have been perfect.
Even if it was not possible, there were many people in the coffee shop, borrowing a phone wouldn't be difficult.

The car had been driving for about twenty minutes.
Arrived at the entrance of an expensive, high-end coffee shop with few customers.
Sophia stood there, silently watching.
She knew this brand, it was very high-end, outrageously expensive, and had few customers.
A cup of coffee was equivalent to a full French meal, how could there possibly be many patrons?
Usually, only the big shots from Wall Street would come here to discuss matters.
Sophia glanced back.
The driver had already caught up.
"Madam, crowded places were dangerous."
Sophia could only step in.
She had no choice.
The privacy of this coffee shop was very strong.

A rectangular wooden table was placed near the window, on which coffee beans from all over the world were displayed.
Sophia glanced around and, in a corner, saw a familiar face.
She gave a slight shudder.
Virginia.
