Get you in my arms

Chapter 57 She Doesn't Love You Enough

"So you mean that the X Group is more important than my happiness?" John replied with a mocking smile.

"That's not what I meant." Mrs. Xu hastily explained, "do you still remember the time when your father's friend provided funds to help us when the X Group was in danger?"

"Of course I remember him. But he went back on his word in the end. We were disappointed because of him!" "Humph!".

"It's not that he has changed his mind. It's just that he was threatened and he doesn't dare to help us," Said Mrs. Xu with a sigh.

"Threatened?" "Who's threatening him?" Asked John.

"It's Lucas!" Mrs. Xu murmured in a low voice.

"What?" John almost jumped up from the bed, and his face was covered with extreme anger. He thought that Lucas just took advantage of it, but he didn't expect Lucas to play tricks on him and Sophia. No wonder during that period, the stock of the X Group suddenly plummeted, and the partners also withdrawn one after another. It turned out that it was all Lucas' fault!

"Lucas, you bastard!" He clenched his fists and roared. A strong sense of hatred rose from the chest to the eyebrows. If it were not for Lucas, the rest of the things would not have happened, and he and Sophia would not have been separated! There was nothing in this world that John could do to avenge Lucas. He would repay Lucas twice!

The next day, Lucas came with experts. After a thorough check, they decided to carry out a craniotomy operation for John two weeks later.

Back in the ward, he deliberately said he wanted to eat some strange fruits. He asked Sophia to buy for him and sent her away.

Lucas poured him a glass of water, but he didn't drink it. He turned around to look at him.

"Lucas, does Sophia love you?" He asked slowly.

"This question is very strange. You shouldn't have asked me this."

"You dare not answer me, right?" A faint, sarcastic smile spilled over the corners of John's mouth. "Because she doesn't love you enough."

His words stabbed in the heart like a sharp knife. "The relationship between me and Sophia is not up to outsiders to judge."

"What you get is just her, her heart is still mine." John continued with great certainty.

"Are you declaring war on me?" Lucas frowned.

"I am reminding you to see one fact. I have known her since she was born. We went to the same kindergarten, the same primary school and middle school. We were in twenty-one years and we had the good memories in the twenty-one years. You will never replace them! " John sneered. The deep love between them in the 21 years was his trump card. No matter how excellent and capable you were, you couldn't surpass it!

This was indeed a fierce and powerful sniper, and it hit the vital part of Lucas. His face paled for a moment. He couldn't defend for what he said. Until now, he was still not sure about her. Her heart was like the wind, the mist, as if it could be grasped by one hand, but it had never been grasped. He was jealous of their relationship. He hated that he hadn't met her earlier. He often worried that she would come back to John. Especially after the car accident, the jealousy and anxiety piled up like volcano

ash, and it was getting higher and thicker. However, he would not let his rival detect it at all, nor would he make any concession.

"John, Sophia is my woman now. Don't have any fantasy, or I will teach you a lesson!"

"Are you warning me? Are you afraid? " There was an insidious smile on John's face. "Since you are so talented, dare you play a game with me?"

Lucas looked at him with sharp and cold eyes. He never thought of these words, "dare you or not!"!

When Sophia came back from the fruit store, she saw that the two people were "getting on well" with each other, her heart that was beating very fast now became peaceful.

"What are you talking about?" She smiled.

"Talk to you." John replied in a low voice.

"Are you plotting against me?" She frowned at them.

"Yes, I said you were like a little glutton, who could eat seven dishes at a time, and sleep like a little rabbit, crawling on the bed." Lucas gently pinched her nose.

"I don't know how to get out of bed when I sleep." "Really?"

Lucas laughed and held her up. "I'm used to sleeping with you. Are you serious?" All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

"I don't sleep well?" When she turned around and saw John's face, she quickly pushed away the man who just insulted her. "Oh, you can't tell this to an outsider. Do you understand?"

It was a casual remark, but the word "outsider" in it deeply hurt John's heart.

In the past, they had been glued to each other. But now in her eyes, he was an outsider?

He couldn't help clenching his fists. All this was caused by Lucas. If he didn't grab her heart, how could she leave and take him as a passer-by?

"John, open your mouth." At this time, Sophia's voice interrupted his thoughts. He opened his mouth and a strange fruit was fed into his mouth. But the one fed him was Lucas.

When he was eating the fruits, Mrs. Xu came in. And Sophia went back with Lucas.

In the afternoon, Sophia came alone, and Lucas had a dinner party.

Today, she cooked soybean and pork trotter soup. After feeding him the soup, when she was about to wash the bowl, John suddenly reached out his hand and held her.

"What's wrong? You haven't had enough yet? I'll cook more tomorrow. " She smiled and withdrew her hand. Her subtle movement made John a little disappointed. "Sophia, sit down for a while. I have something to tell you." He patted on the bedside table.

She put down the bowl and sat down on the chair beside the bed. "What do you want to say?"

He pursed his dry lips. "How much do you know about Lucas?"

"Why do you ask me this question all of a sudden?" She was stunned for a while.

"Nothing. It's just an idle question." He waved his hand and turned his tone, "Sophia, thank you for taking care of me these days."

"John, why do you say that? If you hadn't pushed me away, I should be the one lying on the bed." She put a pillow behind him to make him feel more comfortable.

He turned his head and looked at her with his empty eyes: "Sophia, don't come again. I am recovering well. Don't worry."

"What's wrong, John? Why do you say something like that?" She was shocked.

"If you come over often, he will be unhappy." He lowered his head and looked gloomy and dismal.

"Did he say something to you this morning?" Her heart shrank all of a sudden.

"No, he didn't say anything." He shook his head and blinked his eyes unconsciously.

She could tell that he was lying. Every time he lied, he would blink. Even if he couldn't see now, he couldn't get rid of his habit.

"John, don't hide anything from me. Tell me, what did he say to you?" She held his shoulder anxiously.

"He said..."
