“Sister!" Sophia's sweet gentle voice rang out in the room as she rushed to the bed and sat on the space bedside Rose.
“Sister, why haven't you stepped out of your room since all these days? I heard from mother that you've arrived but you've refused to let anyone apart from Aunt Paige and a few maids. I can't believe that you didn't want to see your little Sophia too.” Sophia ranted all of her complaints the moment she sat down. Ever since the day that Beatrice had told her that Rose was around she tried to come into Rose room but was unable to.
Today she had been able to enter the room because she knew that Rose only opened the door at this time for the maids to come and clean the room. She had woken up earlier than normal so that she could get here before the maids.
Rose, on the other hand, placed her cell phone beside her as she looked at Sophia. The last person she wanted to see was but she knew it was inevitable not to bump into Sophia.
She gritted her teeth as she recalled the memory of the night she died. Rose felt her hand itching to grab Sophia on the spot to kill her but held back her urge and maintained a neutral face.
‘It wouldn't be fun if I just kill you right here. I want you to suffer more than I did and beg on your knees for death.’ Rose thought to herself in her mind.
“Why are you here, Sophia?" Despite the fact that she desired to strangle her right there and then, Rose composed herself and held back the immense anger inside her.
She had a quick inspection of Sophia's face. It looked younger, yet still flirtatious and pretentious. A sense of resentment was brewing in her.
“What do you mean by that sister? Of course, I'm here to see you. Are you angry at me?" Sophia asked as she grabbed one of Rose's hands.
“Actually, I came here to ask you for a favor." Sophia muttered gently in a voice that Rose could hear.
Rose narrowed her eyes. Why did this scene seem familiar to her? In her past life, when she had arrived Sophia also did the same thing coming into her room and asking for a favor. Even though their relationship wasn't really close, Rose had given into that favor.
“What is the favor?" Rose asked, wanting to confirm if Sophia would ask for the same favor she had asked in her past life.
“The thing is, I need to go out in a few days time and I would need some jewelry to match my clothes. I don't want to tell my mother because she would refuse to buy another piece of jewelry for me, considering the ones I have but none of them would go well with the dress I picked. So, I wanted to ask sister to borrow a few pieces of jewelry since you have a lot of them.” Sophia revealed as she looked up at Rose with cute puppy eyes, hoping that her cute acting would work on Rose.
