“Sophia, don’t say things like that
Derick’s voice was gentle and resonant, but there was a hint of inscrutable darkness in his eyes.
As if placating an unreasonable child.
Tears overflowed from Sophia’s eyes as she looked up at him, her gaze clear, cold, and defiant.
For a long time.
Derick sighed, cleaned her hands for her, and slowly began to speak:
“What did Virginia tell you? She’s trying to stir up our relationship, don’t you know my feelings?”
His eyebrows and eyes were gentle and handsome, and towards her, he was always extremely careful.
In their relationship, he was in a weaker position.

His posture made Sophia’s chest ache and her heart sour.
Just like her initial obsession with Pierce, it was foolish.
She took a deep breath, her tone gradually calming down:
“Derick, did you ever lie to me?”
“If there was, you tell me now, everything is still in time, I am willing to forgive you.”
At that moment, she had almost lowered her bottom line for him.

She couldn’t ignore Derick’s efforts towards her, but she couldn’t ignore her family’s suffering even more.
Derick silently watched her for a few seconds.
A profound, dark emotion swept across the depths of his gentle black eyes.
Soon, it disappeared.
He chuckled, his voice still clear, resonant, and warm:

“Sophia, how could I have lied to you? You are the one I love the most…”
He was just about to put his hands on Sophia’s shoulders when she took a step back, dodging him.
She looked at the face before her, strange yet familiar, deep and warm. The softness in her heart slowly turned cold.
It seemed as if the last bit of confidence had also been shattered.
His love was intense and overwhelming, but it was filled with too much deception and other things.
* It made it impossible for her to distinguish.
She was willing to work hard to follow his path.
However, he was behind an opaque mask from her, forcing the antennae she had proactively extended to retract back into its shell.
The emotions in Sophia’s cool eyes gradually calmed down.
She took a deep breath:
“I needed to return to my country right then.”

The gentle smile on Derick’s face gradually faded, his eyes slightly lowered, as if he was restraining some emotion.
Sophia stood there indifferently.
Once the decision was made, there was nothing to worry about.
“Sophia, it wasn’t the time yet.”
“Then you tell me, when is the right time? You think it’s dangerous for me to go out, isn’t it dangerous here too?”
“I wanted to go back to my country, I wanted to go home, I didn’t want to stay here anymore…”
Sophia’s emotions momentarily shattered, and she couldn’t help but raise her voice.
She pushed Derick away and ran downstairs.
Derick’s brows furrowed, and he immediately followed.
The servant, watching Sophia run downstairs from below, was instantly startled:
“Madam…”

Sophia ignored and ran straight towards the outside of the
manor.
The gate was open.
But the distance was too far.

The driver’s car was parked not far away.
She immediately changed direction.
Opened the car door, got in, closed the door, all in one breath.
She was unable to suppress her anger and impulsiveness.
Watching Derick and others chasing after her from outside, she gritted her teeth, stepped directly on the accelerator, and drove towards the exit.
However, as soon as the car left the house and hadn’t even traveled three hundred meters, suddenly about a dozen bodyguards dressed in black suits and pants appeared, fearlessly blocking the car’s path
She slammed on the brakes, her face pale as she stared at the person who suddenly appeared in front of her.
Suddenly remembered Virginia’s words.

She left, stepping out of this manor, and in the darkness outside, countless people were watching.
But why?
Sophia was flustered, why did she have to do this?
Her hands on the steering wheel trembled slightly.
The next second.
The car door was opened by someone.
Derick stood outside, his face dark and inscrutable.
He took her back to the manor, the restrained chill in his body inadvertently revealing itself.
Sophia turned pale, suddenly finding him somewhat terrifying.
Derick took her into the room and slammed the door shut.
Sophia shuddered in fear.
Derick paused, loosening his grip on her hand slightly,

He looked down at her, her small face pale. Between her clean and pure brows and eyes, there was now an added touch of fear and caution.
Suddenly, he reached out and wrapped his arms around her waist, imprisoning her in his embrace. He lowered his head, intending to kiss her lustrous lips, just like he did in the car.
But before he could touch her, she immediately turned her head away, unable to dodge in time.
His dark eyes dimmed, carrying an indescribable darkness in his expression.
Her resistance caused a moment of panic in his chest.
It was as if the thing tightly clenched in my hand had turned into fine sand, impossible to hold onto.
His large hand cradled her delicate face, his voice somewhat hoarse:
“Sophia, you were willing in the car…”
Why did she have to avoid him now?
Sophia’s eyes were slightly red, her hands wanting to push him away, a hint of alienation in her gaze:

“I don’t want to anymore, Derick, I don’t want to.”
Derick’s face inexplicably turned a few shades uglier, as if some emotions were welling up between his brows and eyes. He felt panicked and out of control inside, lowering his head and kissing down.
With a bit of fierceness.
No matter how hard Sophia pushed away, Derick remained unmoved.
He kissed her as if he had gone mad, seeking the warmth and affection he had felt in the car that day from her.
She had clearly started to like him, she took the initiative to kiss him, indicating that he had entered her heart.
How could he be so easily eliminated?
He didn’t want to!
So he desperately wanted to get close to her, to make her his own, clutching at her sweetness and love.
He wanted to keep her by extreme means.
The next second.
A sharp pain shot through my lips.
Derick snapped back to reality in an instant, his runaway emotions returning to rationality once again.
He tasted the metallic tang of blood on his own lips.
He stiffly stepped back, releasing his grip, a trace of restraint and apology flickered in his deep eyes.
“Sophia…”
Sophia, with her cold and angry eyes, suddenly raised her hand and slapped across.
He didn’t hide.
A flush instantly spread across the face.
He reached out, grasped her numb right hand that she had been using to hit, and gently massaged it.
“Did it hurt?”
His voice was deep and hoarse.

In an instant.
Sophia suddenly felt like crying.
His kindness towards her was somewhat more than she could
bear.
With a cold expression, she withdrew her hand and clenched her fist:
“Get out.”
She had never spoken harshly to him, but at this point, she would not be polite anymore.
Derick looked at her deeply, wanting to say something, but seeing her appearance, he couldn’t say anything.
A dull pain throbbed in my chest, as if it had been struck by something heavy.
He regretted that he had actually done such a thing, scaring her.
The moment I heard she was leaving, my heart was in chaos, in panic.
He really lost control.

He shouldn’t have done that.
He pursed his lips, murmuring softly:
“I’m sorry.”
After he finished speaking, he opened the door and left.
Sophia seemed to have all her strength drained away in an instant.
Unable to hold on any longer, he suddenly fell to the ground, tears uncontrollably streaming down his face.
She had clearly started learning to like Derick, why did they have to treat her like this?
She couldn’t figure out this answer.
His preference, it turned out, also came with a price…
