Get lost Ex-husband

Chapter 157 152: Be a Little More Behaved

Sophia's words shattered the relief in his heart.

Derick walked over and sat down across from her, his aura somewhat gently desolate, his face bearing a hint of weary fatigue.

These past few days, he hasn't been doing well either.

His deep eyes were fixed on her, his voice warm and gentle:

"Sophia, I know this method is somewhat extreme, but I couldn't think of a better way to make you stay."

"I didn't understand."

Sophia just couldn't figure it out.

Why had they suddenly come to this point?

"I wished you would stay, stay by my side forever."

"Everything I had, I could give to you, as long as you stayed."

Derick's voice was low and hoarse, calm, seemingly with a hint of pleading.

Sophia stared at him for a few seconds:

"Was the cost that I could only be with you in this world? Away from my parents and family?"

She even found it somewhat amusing.

Such confinement was not love, but treating her as private property.

Derick looked deeply into her eyes:

"After a few years, when the dust had settled, you could go back to see them."

Instead of now, it was a time when her fondness for him could retreat at any moment.

"In a few years?"

Sophia couldn't help but let out a soft laugh.

Her eyes were clear and bright as she looked at him:

"Derick, did you think it was meaningful for us to be together?"

Derick's eyes darkened, leaving no room for doubt:

"Of course there was."

For all these years, he had only ever had feelings for Sophia.

How could you say it was meaningless?

Sophia stood up, "You won't let me go back to my country, will you?"

Derick was silent, he didn't speak.

Sophia gritted her teeth, "Fine, but how long can you keep me locked up here?"

Her tone shifted, she looked up at the brilliantly lit ceiling, her voice clear:

"In a few days, I would be able to jump down from above..."

In an instant.

Derick suddenly looked up, his eyes as cold as ice.

His heart trembled.

288 VThis is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

The color of the face had turned several shades paler.

For a long time.

He stood up, walked over, carefully took her hand, and made a compromise:

"Alright, behave yourself, I won't lock you in here."

She was not the canary he could cage.

Upon hearing this.

Sophia breathed a sigh of relief.

It wasn't without gains after all!

"You could call your parents, but you couldn't leave."

His voice was heavy, "Sophia, the dispute between the Cruise Group and Pierce has reached a fever pitch, and now the outside world is watching closely

"If the Cruise Group had diverted their energy to deal with me, it would have been a very unwise choice."

He straightforwardly laid out the pros and cons.

Let her weigh.

He knew that Sophia could not possibly harm the interests of the Cruise family.

She hated Pierce, and the Cruise Group, due to their own daughter's sea accident, was almost in direct confrontation with the Clement family in the business world. The mall was like a battlefield.

If the Cruise family had known that Sophia was being controlled by Derick, they would have definitely done everything to save her.

What Pierce would do given the opportunity, needless to say, he would not show any mercy.

So, at the moment Derick finished speaking.

The expression on Sophia's face froze.

A slight sinking feeling suddenly came over me.

Derick's preference was also quite despicable.

He took out his phone and handed it to Sophia.

She could contact her family, but she couldn't go back, let alone talk about irrelevant things.

Sophia took a glance, suppressing the surging waves in her chest.

Paused for a few seconds.

She lowered her gaze and quietly said, "Okay."

"The call was not made."

as de

Her heart was as water.

If a call had been made and they couldn't go back, Brycen and Cecilia would only have become more anxious.

Derick glanced at her, as if he had breathed a sigh of relief.

He cautiously probed, looking at her:

"So, could we return to the state we were in before?"

In his profound eyes, there was a hint of anticipation.

He wished more that she loved him, just as he loved her.

Sophia quietly watched him for a few seconds.

Then the smile spread out, "Fine, as long as you don't shut me out."

The gloom in Derick's gentle gaze faded away.

Afterwards.

Two people left the house together.

The servants all breathed a sigh of relief.

Sophia, as before, clung to his arm in the car and gently leaned on his shoulder.

The corners of Derick's mouth couldn't help but lift upwards.

This result was smoother than he had expected.

The so-called freedom he referred to was based on the condition that he or his people were around. Sophia didn't mind either.

Being able to go out was already very good.

In the following few days.

He was having a meeting in the company, and she was waiting in the office.

Occasionally snacking on some treats, the secretary would come over for a chat to pass the time.

She didn't say she was bored either.

But when a person was sitting alone, it always made people feel heartbroken.

Every time Derick came back from a meeting and saw her sitting there alone without speaking, he always felt uncomfortable deep down.

The innocent and flamboyant Sophia in my heart, shouldn't have been like this.

Although she was also smiling, the joy did not reach her eyes.

However, they were all trying hard to return to how they were a few days ago.

When Sophia returned to the manor at night and was alone in her room, she could no longer laugh, her face was extremely cold and indifferent. She knew, she could never find the man who taught her to feed pigeons in the park again.

the Woodward Group.

After the meeting, Derick pushed the door open. Upon hearing the sound, Sophia stood up and said with a smile:

"Would you like some coffee?"

Recently, her coffee-making skills, which she learned from her secretary, had become perfect.

Derick paused, sat there, and gently squeezed her hand with a soft look in his eyes.

She did not refuse.

"I had someone accompany you to go shopping. Buy whatever you want."

Sophia raised an eyebrow, her eyes lighting up:

"Swipe your card."

Derick's gaze was gentle, "Okay."

He was overjoyed.

Before the secretary left, she was called into the office and given a few instructions by Derick.

As for what was said, Sophia had no idea.

But the fact that she was able to step out of the manor, out of this building, was already a phased victory.

The secretary was very thoughtful and meticulous, caring deeply about Mrs. Woodward's feelings.

Only through consumption could a man's intentions towards a woman be verified.

So, the secretary led Sophia into the luxury goods store.

Inside the VIP room of the luxury goods.

A dozen or so shop assistants carefully held the invaluable bags in the shop, allowing unknown wealthy ladies to choose.

Sophia glanced to the side.

Happened to see one of the platinum bags, it was quite pleasing to the eye.

She merely glanced twice before she was scolded by the young lady in front of her:

"What are you looking at? Can you afford it if you look?"

The secretary suddenly panicked and quickly looked at Sophia.

Sophia smiled, didn't say anything, but instead had the secretary call Derick.

As soon as the call connected, Sophia took the phone.

Her voice was soft and gentle, as if she was coquettishly teasing.
