He lets Sofia get in the car and helps her put the suitcase.<\/p>\n<p>Lily moves a little bit so that Sofia can sit down.<\/p>\n<p>Glancing at the graceful woman, Lily says, &#8220;Sorry, I&#8217;m going back in your car.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s fine. I think it&#8217;s good.&#8221; Sofia smooths her long hair and says with a smile, &#8220;If I had known that Ms. Lily and my David were friends, I would have just come out with you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>My David?<\/p>\n<p>Lily can&#8217;t stand it and she trembles. Then she lowers her head to send John a message to say that she&#8217;s safe.<\/p>\n<p>Since her phone falls to the ground just now, she hasn&#8217;t called back yet.<\/p>\n<p>Sofia knows that Lily doesn&#8217;t want to be disturbed, so she doesn&#8217;t speak anymore.<\/p>\n<p>After David gets in the car, Sofia asks him with concern, &#8220;I heard it was raining in Yorkshire last week. You didn&#8217;t catch a cold, did you?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No. I&#8217;m strong!&#8221; David hands her the thermos cup in the car as he replies. &#8220;Oolong tea with peach in it. I made it an hour ago.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Thanks.&#8221; Sofia takes the thermos cup.<\/p>\n<p>As soon as the lid of the cup is unscrewed, the sweet fragrance of the peach comes out.<\/p>\n<p>Lily feels a little uncomfortable when she smells this fragrance. So she moves aside.<\/p>\n<p>Sofia pours a cup of tea and hands it over, &#8220;Ms. Lily, would you like to try it?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No, thanks.&#8221; Lily suppresses the discomfort and pushes the cup away.<\/p>\n<p>Sofia shrugs and doesn&#8217;t force her to drink it.<\/p>\n<p>While Lily is playing her mobile phone, she hears David and Sofia talk about where to eat tonight, and riding horses at the racecourse this weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Lily is tongue-tied. She doesn&#8217;t know whether she should blame David as a simp, or she should praise Sofia that she&#8217;s so great that she can deal with two men at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>When they arrive, Lily can&#8217;t wait to open the door and get out.<\/p>\n<p>David helps Lily with the suitcase.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;David, come here.&#8221; After taking a deep breath of fresh air, Lily pulls David aside and says, &#8220;Your classmate is very smart and beautiful. But she&#8217;s quite like an angelic bitch.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What are you talking about?&#8221; David asks curiously.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lily touches her forehead and whispers, &#8220;I mean she&#8217;s been hooking up with any men. Forget about that. What do you think of the relationship between her and Mr. Smith?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She doesn&#8217;t believe what she reads in the newspaper and wants to hear what David is gonna say.<\/p>\n<p>After all, David has always worked with Louis.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Not bad.&#8221; David smiles, but he seems somewhat disappointed. &#8220;Ms. Lily, you know Mr. Smith. He likes to advance talents. Otherwise, he wouldn&#8217;t have kept the R Department.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lily feels upset.<\/p>\n<p>Right. Outstanding women can be found everywhere. Anyone can take her place.<\/p>\n<p>Lily suppresses the sadness and says to David, &#8220;Sofia is so smart. It&#8217;s impossible for her to date you if she doesn&#8217;t know your feelings towards her. Besides, she never refuses to eat and go out with you.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s really nothing between Mr. Smith and her.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;So that&#8217;s it!&#8221; David understands. &#8220;Then Ms. Lily, you&#8230;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Stop. He can love whoever he wants to. I won&#8217;t make up with him!&#8221; Lily knows what he means. So she blocks what he&#8217;s gonna say and leaves with a cold face.<\/p>\n<p>As long as she thinks of Louis&#8217; ruthlessness that day, she will be annoyed.<\/p>\n<p>Even if she does something wrong, can&#8217;t they sit down and talk about it? After sleeping with Lily, he throws her some money and runs away! And he even hooks up with other women recklessly!<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s up to him! She won&#8217;t behave like an idiot and give birth to three children for that man. She can afford to raise them!<\/p>\n<p>Seeing Lily enter the apartment, David touches his head and wonders, &#8216;Didn&#8217;t Mr. Smith go to see Ms. Lily when we went to the party last time? Didn&#8217;t they talk about it and solve the misunderstanding?&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Sofia rolls down the window and asks him, &#8220;Are you done talking to Ms. Lily?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s over. I&#8217;ll be right there.&#8221; David quickly gets in the car, &#8220;Should I drive you home or?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Go to the company. I have some things to deal with.&#8221; Sofia smooths her long hair and says unintentionally, &#8220;I heard from the people in my department that Mr. Smith does not look good these days. Did anything happen to you when you went to Country Y?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>David smiles. &#8220;It&#8217;s fine. It&#8217;s just that we failed the business there.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Oh, I see.&#8221; Sofia nods and leans towards the driver&#8217;s seat. &#8220;David, I know that you and Ms. Lily are friends, but she has broken up with Mr. Smith and is not the member of the Smith Group.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I hope that you can have less contact with her. You know what happened between Mr. Smith and her. I don&#8217;t want Mr. Smith to blame you and make you lose your job.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Really?&#8221; David can&#8217;t help but say, &#8220;They just broke up with each other. They&#8217;re not enemies.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Besides, if Mr. Smith hadn&#8217;t cared about Ms. Lily, he wouldn&#8217;t have gone all the way to Country Y to help her.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>That night, David witnesses how busy Justin is and he listens to Justin&#8217;s complaints all night.<\/p>\n<p>Sofia pats him, &#8220;Have you ever seen any couple break up and still be friends? I&#8217;m worried about you. You will lose nothing without Ms. Lily.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-2345","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/2345","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nirvanaharapan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2345"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
