Chapter 81 Unexpectedly Waiting for You


    Sophia had a fever.


    In order to help Sophia take a bath, Stephen got a lot of water sshed on him. Looking at the wet


    clothes, he frowned, took off his clothes and took a batch in Sophia''s room.


    After taking a bath, he used a towel to wipe the hair. Sophia lied in bed groaning and her face blushed.


    Stephen frowned and took the forehead temperature meter. With a beep sound, the forehead


    temperature meter screen was red: 39.9. He immediately called the doctor to give her antipyretic


    injection.


    "This is a very high temperature for adults. I gave her antipyretic injection. When the fever subsided,


    take the medicine. Drink lots of water and eat a light diet." Doctor Joe said, "It rains when I got here, I


    think it is still raining, so don''t let her go out again."


    Stephen nodded.


    At four o''clock in the morning, Sophia''s fever was subsided after taking medicine and drinking water.


    Seeing that Stephen was tired, Hannah asked Stephen to have some sleep, but Stephen refused.


    Because he was too tired, Stephen fell asleep in the chair on the bedside.


    He was woken by the ringing of his mobile phone. Daniel’s voice was heard over the phone: "Mr. Berry,


    you have a very important meeting ten o’clock in the morning."


    Stephen raised his hand and looked at his watch -- his new mechanical watch. It was already nine


    o’clock. Stephen said, "Oh, I know. I''ll be there on time."


    Stephen got up and touched Sophia''s forehead. Noticing her fever was gone, he felt relived. Before he

    walked out, he said to Hannah: "Cook clear porridge and ask her to eat it when she is up. Tell her to


    take medicine. And call Dr. Joe to check on her again."


    Hannah nodded.


    Before long Stephen left, Sophia was also awakened by the mobile phone ring. It was Vincent calling.


    She did not want to pick it up, but after a moment of hesitation, she picked it up because Calvin was


    with him.


    "Sophia, where are you now? Has your foot been treated? Are you feeling better? Does it still hurt?"


    Vincent kept asking.


    Sophia frowned in disgust: "What is the matter?!"


    Vincent said: "Sophia, I''m sorry about yesterday. I apologize to you on behalf of E. I know you didn''t


    push her, she wronged you."


    For this, Sophia was silent for a while.


    Vincent seemed to know what she wanted to hear. He said, "Calvin lives in the hotel and won''t leave


    for the next two days. You can rest assured. What Calvin said yesterday was a bit over the top. Don''t


    take it to heart. He didn''t really mean it."


    "And, I will persuade Calvin to meet you before he leaves."


    Sophia said in a hoarse voice, "Thank you".


    "Sophia, where do you live now? I want to see you and tell you about the situation of your father and


    Calvin these years." Vincent wanted to inquire about the address of Sophia and to see her.


    "Name a ce and I''ll find you."


    "Your foot..."


    "My foot is all right!” Then Sophia hung up the phone.


    Simple washed her face, got dressed and limped out of the bedroom. Hannah was resting in the living


    room with her eyes closed. She was so tiredst night that she decided to take a nap on the sofa. And


    she fell asleep.


    Sophia continued to walk out quietly. The servant outside cleaning the house knew she had


    extraordinary rtionship with Stephen, so she did not stop Sophia.


    Sophia wanted to drive, but her foot was in pain and it was hard to walk, let alone to step on the brake.


    Helplessly, she had to limp to the door of the vi, thinking of asking Hazel to transfer her some money


    after getting in the car. As for how to repay the money... she would take a job at Emmanuel''s barbecue


    shop.


    At the door, Sophia wanted to stop the taxi, but she saw a white car not far away, where standing


    Emmanuel. Emmanuel saw her, ran over and asked: "Sophia, I finally see you!" Then he thought of


    something. "Why don’t you rest in there? Did Stephen force you to go to work?"


    Sophia shook her head: "I want to go out, can you send me?"


    “Of course!” Emmanuel picked Sophia up and got her into the car. Sophia could not help eximing,


    and Emmanuel flushed and exined, "Your foot has not yet healed and can’t walk. It would be faster if


    I help you."


    On the halfway, Sophia suddenly thought of what Emmanuel had just said. She frowned and looked at


    Emmanuel. "Emmanuel, have you been waiting for me at the gate of the vi?"


    Emmanuel smiled sheepishly: "I am worried about you, so Ie and have a look."


    She went back to the vi yesterday, and it was raining all day...


    Sophia looked at Emmanuel and bit her lip: She was taking Emmanuel as a friend. But that was


    beyond the bounds of friends.


    Vincent chose a cafe. When they went in, Emmanuel nned to go in with her in his arms, but Sophia


    refused, so Emmanuel gave up and put her at the door of the cafe and waited in the car.


    Nevertheless, such a scene was still seen by Vincent. His hand tightened as he held the coffee cup.


    Men have a bad nature, even if he was not right, even if he had cheated others, looking at the woman


    who once belonged to him nestled in other’s arms, he would not be happy.


    See that Sophia limped over with a pale face, his hand loosed. He told himself that there was nothing


    between them. He just wanted to help her as a friend.


    Sophia sat opposite Vincent and got straight to the point: "What do you want to say?"


    Vincent was not in a hurry. He put the caramel mhiato to Sophia: "Sophia, taste it. This is your


    favorite."


    Looking at the delicate pattern of caramel dripping on the surface of the coffee and thinking of the


    coffee that E ordered for her before, Sophia ironically curved her mouth and said, "This tastes bad. I


    don''t like it for a long time."


    Vincent''s face was pale. He understood that it was not just coffee that Sophia disliked, but him. "What


    do you want to drink? I''ll order for you." Vincent raised his hand to call the waiter.


    Sophia frowned: "Vincent, would you say it or not? If you don’t, I gotta go. I don''t have much time to


    waste!"


    Vincent''s face stiffed and he said: "I will say."


    "The Carter Group went bankrupt six months after you were put in prison. You know, thepany was


    investing in a big project, which your father personally presided over. It was supposed to be a foolproof


    project. But at thest step of the project, the partner suddenly withdrew the investment. The Carter


    Group could not support it and had to file for bankruptcy."
