Chapter 1099 - 1095: Lest They Rekindle Old Flames
Robert Williams felt helpless too. Right now, he truly couldn’t give Irene Morton full freedom. Quite a few people in the Land Family had been hurt because of her, even last night when Asher Land went to see Irene, she grabbed his arm and bit him hard.Sophie Smith didn’t say anything more, she just closed the door and stepped back.
These past few days, she hadn’t gone out at all. She wasn’t sure if it was because she couldn’t stop worrying about Irene. Eva Miller said she wanted to come over and see her, but Sophie refused.
"Why won’t you let me come over?" Eva Miller was puzzled. "I haven’t seen you for days, I really miss you."
"It’s not convenient at home right now."
"What’s inconvenient about it?" Eva Miller insisted on getting to the bottom of it.
Sophie Smith never had anything to hide from Eva Miller, so she told her everything about Irene Morton.
"Honestly, Sophie, are you crazy?" Eva Miller was exasperated with her. "You actually let Irene stay with the Land Family, are you out of your mind?"
"You’ve turned your home into a rehab center, a shelter, huh? Can you use your brain for a moment? Right now, keeping Irene in the Land Family is just a hazard for you." Eva Miller seemed to be strongly criticizing her, becoming more and more agitated.
"Alright, Eva, calm down, take care of your health."
"How can I not be agitated? It wasn’t easy for you to marry President Land, it seemed like blissful days were ahead. But then this Irene suddenly shows up again! Trust me, she’s definitely going to ruin your relationship!"
Sophie Smith held her phone, her head down. Frankly, she didn’t know if what she’d done was right or wrong.
Eva Miller kept speaking on the other end, and Sophie just listened without responding. Eventually, Eva got tired of talking and stopped.
"Keep an eye on Irene Morton, and it’s best to also watch President Land closely, in case the two of them rekindle something from the past."
In fact, Eva Miller knew her words were somewhat unsubstantiated. Asher Land had never had feelings for Irene Morton, the idea of them rekindling something didn’t really make sense. But she just wanted to alert Sophie Smith. If she didn’t emphasize it, Sophie wouldn’t take it seriously.
"I understand." Sophie said, then hung up the phone, otherwise Eva Miller would continue her tirade endlessly.
Asher Land didn’t head straight home after work today. When called, he only said he was busy.
Meanwhile, at a certain bar.
Asher Land was sitting at the bar, downing one drink after another.
"Hey, drink less." Luke Land took the glass from him. He couldn’t remember now how many drinks Asher Land had had.
Luke Land shook his head helplessly. It was clear that he was dealing with something troubling.
"Did you have a fight with Sophie Smith?" he asked tentatively.
"No." He replied indifferently.
"Then what’s going on with you?" Luke Land didn’t understand. In his view, not many people could affect Asher Land’s mood, except for Sophie Smith...
Oh, Luke Land suddenly realized, besides Sophie Smith, there’s also Irene Morton, right?
"What did that girl Irene Morton do this time?"
Asher Land was a bit surprised. He turned his head towards Luke Land, "How did you know it was related to her?"
"Haha!" Luke Land knew he had guessed correctly, Asher Land’s thoughts, and couldn’t help feeling a bit proud. "What kind of relationship do we have? It’s normal for brothers to be on the same wavelength, to resonate with each other’s thoughts!"
