Bumpkin's Rich Handsome Husband novel Chapter 1051

Chapter 1051 The Shirley With Low Self-Esteem

Today, Sofia was wearing a pair of dark green, loose-fitting trousers paired with a body-hugging cropped top in white and a black baseball cap. Her dark, long hair layered around her shoulders, and even without any makeup, she looked like a cool, proud girl.

In addition, she was born pretty, the type of cool girl with a clean look, and when Shirley recalled how her own face looked, inferiority welled up in her chest. She gripped the ropes on the swing tightly in fear, lowering her head and not daring to look at the woman nearby directly.

"Sky… I-I'm tired. I'm going back to rest." Then, she placed her palms on the ground, forcibly stopped the swing from moving, spun around, and shuffled toward the living quickly.

Skyler wanted to call her back when he noticed how she had literally fled in a panic but didn't do it in the end.

"It's been a while, Skye. Where the hell have you been recently?" A brilliant smile spread across Sofia's face, making it seem as though they had a close bond.

"Shirley was not in a good mood during that time, so I took her on a vacation." He stuffed his hands into his pockets and approached her leisurely. "Are you looking for Matt? He's playing with the kids in the living room. Come on, let's go in." It seemed as though he didn't have anything to say to her.

"Yeah, when I heard that Matthew has come back to life, I immediately rushed here to visit him, but I didn't know that I'd bump into you here." She dropped the stuff in her hands on the ground, started toward him, opened her arms, and wanted to hug him. "I miss you terribly, Skye!" she exclaimed.

However, before her hands could touch him, the man in front of her took a step back. "Stop!" He raised a hand, putting a distance between them. Then, he said in an aloof tone, "I'm dating Shirley now. It's already over between us, Sofia, and I hope that you'll let go of the past and don't disrupt my and Shirley's lives."

Although Sofia had already mentally prepared herself for this outcome, she was still struck by shock and jealousy when she heard the words coming from Skyler's lips. Her opened arms hung rigidly in the air for a few seconds before she slowly lowered them, tightening her palms into fists. "You… Have you really decided to be with her?"

"Yes."

The answer she received from him was firm and determined. There was not even a single trace of hesitation that could be heard, and such a decisive answer made her jealous all over again.

"Don't mess around, Skye. You should know that even if you're dating her, your parents and your family will not approve of this relationship," she pointed out. "Do you know that your family has been searching for you when you went missing for three months? The only reason they didn't call the police was because of your status."

"I already went home on the day I returned and met my parents. So, you don't have to worry about that." His attitude was indifferent from the beginning to the end; he even warned, "Just remember this, you'd better leave Shirley alone. Otherwise, we can't even be friends."

Skye has changed, Sofia realized. He was no longer full of smiles as he used to be. In contrast, he had given all of his passion to Shirley. Meanwhile, he only has a cold, stony face when facing others.

Then, he spun around and left after saying his piece.

"Skye?" Sofia called out, but he didn't turn back and continued walking toward the living room.

Eventually, she could only stare at his back and clenched her hands into tight fists, shaking uncontrollably. Shirley… Shirley! Fury washed over her, and she was mad and frustrated. Nevertheless, she knew this wasn't the time to lose her cool.

"Phew…"

Thus, she took a few deep breaths, picked up the supplements, and headed for the living room, which was bustling with life. When she stepped in, the people in the room instinctively turned to look.

"Sofia is here?"

"What brought you here, Sofia?"

"It's been a while."

Caleb, Miguel, the Ritter brothers, and Yvette all greeted her.
