Chapter 1110 - 1106: Accompany Her for Three Days (Part 2)
Since childhood, she has cherished him deep in her heart. Before Sophie Smith appeared, she foolishly believed that there was a possibility between them, that one day she could become his woman...But now that hope has completely shattered, and she doesn’t intend to continue entangling herself. She will let go, truly let go.
However, she wants to fulfill a dream she has had since childhood, even if this dream only lasts for three days, she would be content.
Asher Land removed her hand from his sleeve and turned his back. Irene Morton let her hand fall, unable to fathom his thoughts.
"I won’t agree."
Irene’s smile at the corner of her mouth gradually stiffened.
"Just three days? Can’t even spare three days?" She urgently stepped in front of him, facing him directly, "I’m not trying to play any tricks or schemes, can you believe me?"
Indeed, the tricks she used to play and the schemes she used are too many, and now when she wants to speak the truth, he won’t believe her.
The self-mocking smile on her face deepened.
"Have a good rest today, I’ll take you out tomorrow."
He only said he would take her out, but didn’t agree to be her lover for three days...
Her eyes couldn’t hide her disappointment, watching him turn and leave, helplessly, her heart feeling empty.
Sophie Smith, who had been standing at the entrance all along, was startled when she saw Asher Land come out, quickly turning away, but she was still seen by him...
Sophie swiftly returned to the master bedroom, closing the door.
She leaned against the door, feeling a moment of unease, possibly because she overheard the conversation between Asher Land and Irene. She inhaled and exhaled, trying to calm herself.
"Sophie, are you inside?" From outside the door, Asher Land’s low voice could be heard.
Sophie steadied herself, composed her emotions, and after a long time, opened the door.
"What’s wrong?" She tilted her head up, curving her lips towards him.
"What did you hear just now?"
"Hear what?" She shook her head, looking puzzled, "What are you talking about?"
"Playing dumb in front of me?" He stepped into the room, turned around, and closed the door, "You were standing in Irene’s room earlier, I saw you."
"I..." As if she was caught, a momentary embarrassed look appeared on Sophie’s face, "I wasn’t standing there for long, honestly, I didn’t hear anything."
"Heh, you didn’t hear, did you? Then let me tell you what Irene and I talked about, hmm?"
"What you talked about, I’m not interested." She avoided the topic.
Naturally, she heard Irene’s request to Asher Land. She didn’t know how Asher would respond, but her inner logic told her to let Asher Land agree to Irene’s request...
"Irene asked me to accompany her for three days, as her lover." He casually stated, and Sophie’s expression remained mostly unchanged, affirming his belief that she had heard the conversation between him and Irene, otherwise she wouldn’t be so calm.
"Do you think I should agree?" He deliberately asked as if seeking her choice.
What she feared most was having the right to choose at this moment.
Because internally, there are always rational and emotional decisions, angels and devils...
She struggled, hesitated, unable to speak.
"Actually, you could completely answer ’no’, you know?" Asher Land whispered gently against her ear.
