Chapter - 07
Sophia''s POV
When I saw Nichs walking towards me , I became a bit nervous but I covered it up and smiled at
him.
I don''t know why he sounded rude when he said that he wanted to talk .
I could tell he really was ttered at Char''spliment.
There was some kind of tension between him and Ryan . Sensing it, I excused myself and Nichs .
He wanted to decide on what we were going to sell people about how we met and all. We eventually
came up with one.
Just then I heard Ethan . He seemed happy to see me and said that he missed me. Well no shit , I was
happy to see him as well. He was such a cute and happy kid. He looked quite handsome in that small
suit. I could totally bet that he would break hearts when he grows up.
We turned our head to Mr. Carter congratting us on our engagement and thanking everyone for
joining. He called us on the dance floor.
Nichs , led me to the dance floor and and we started dancing to the song. Our steps were
coordinated and our hands fitted perfectly.
Our gazes met a few times and I was always the one to break it.
It felt perfect but would have been better if we were in love.
But I hope we will reach there someday.
Everyoneplimented us on our performance and went on ,on how perfect we looked together.
Exhausted I was seated when a familiar tall handsome guy approached me. I recognized him from the
lift at the office, Caleb.
I learnt that he was Nichs''s best friend since they were infants. Initially , he seemed a little guarded
and was as if trying to understand me . but after few minutes he was his own self. He was a fun and
carefree guy , one with whom you can discuss everything. Maybe we could be good friends.
The rest of event passed and by the time I came back, I was utterly exhausted. Walking in heels for
hours is no joke.

I snuggled closer to Bree and thought of everything that had happened today.
Majority of my thoughts were about Nichs. His brown eyes , sharp jawline , and the sexy lips-
Something is seriously wrong with me.
Ugh , I need to sleep .
"Goodnight Bree"
She barked in response.
Next day...
" Sophie , are you ready yet , Juliana and Erica will be here anytime." , Mom yelled.
"Yeah Mom , almost " , I responded.
Erica is Nichs''s sister. She was unable to attend the engagement party because she had to visit her
friend in Italy. It was some kind of emergency . So this was the first time I was going to meet her.
Till now I love the Carter family and I hope that she is not some sort of snobbish rich spoiled princess. I
can''t really stand these people.
I had put on a oversized sweater with high-waist jeans and pulled up my hair in a ponytail.
I came down to see Mrs. Carter seated and speaking to my Mom and beside her was a slim , brte.
She had nice tanned skin and was wearing a crop top with jeans and a beige cardigan. She was really
beautiful.
When I approached ,both of them smiled brightly at me.
"Sophia !? Oh my you are even prettier than Mom had told me. " , Erica gushed.
" Uhh thank you Erica , you are beautiful as well. " I blushed.
They chuckled a bit at my response.
"Honey , let''s go , we have a lot to do ." Mrs. Carter said.
I nodded and went with them.
She took us to one of the best designer boutiques in city whose owner happened to be her friend. On
the way , me and Erica had be a bit acquainted. She was quite nice and cheerful .
After looking through a lot of dresses , one caught Erica''s attention.
"Hey , this looks great, try this one. "
"Nice choice dear , it''s one of my personal favorites." , Laurel , the owner said.
I went to the trial room . It had a plunging neckline and had withce detailing all over it. I came out
wearing it.
"Oh my .. this is it. It looks FUCKING Gorgeous on you." Erica eximed , making me blush.
"Language, youngdy " , Mrs. Carter looked at her with stern eyes and she looked like she was
caught doing some mischief.
I bit back augh.
"It looks really beautiful on you dear." , Laurel said and Mrs. Carter smiled.
"Thank you, the dress is really beautiful." I said
"Then we will take this. " , Mrs. Carter said. I came back with the dress and gave it for the alterations.
Mrs. Carter paid for the dress , and I didn''t bother to look at the price. I knew it must have cost a
fortune and looking at the price would only raise my guilt . They had earlier told mom that they were to
buy me the dress and it wasn''t up for discussion.
We then visited the jewelery shop and then bought a pair of heels.
After nearly 3 hours we went to a restaurant to eat.
We conversed on various topics and I found that both of them were quite alike. They were friendly and
fun to be with.
Next we went to taste the cake as well. Mrs. Carter said that Nichs was busy with his work so he
won''t be able to join .
We tried a lot of them and finally settled on chocte cake.
It was 7 in the evening when I finally reached home.
"Mommm " , I called.
"In the kitchen, dear " , she said.
I waddled to the kitchen . She was baking cookies. I took a hot one , jumped up and settled on the
counter.
" How was your day Sophie? You look exhausted." She asked.
"Oh , it was nice. They are some amazing people. Cool and fun. But all this shopping totally drained out
my energy." , I sighed.
I was staring into space when Mom touched my shoulder.
"Sophie , do you feel that we took a wrong decision to fix your marriage here? Do you feel that you are
not happy with your situation? I honestly want to know ." She looked at me with concern.
" Mom, it''s nothing like that. They are nice people , warm friendly and as of Nichs, I didn''t find
anything against him. So , your decision is not wrong but this is just a bit.. I am a little nervous. But
nothing I can''t handle. You know I am Dad''s wonder girl." I said putting up my hands in the air.
Momughed and shook her hand .
" That you''re and I know you will find love and be happy. Now go and sleep. You need to rest. " .
"Goodnight Mom" I yawned and made my way to my room.
Long day it was ..
