Marry My Ex's Sworn Enemy (Sonya) novel Chapter 44

Chapter 44: A Olivorrprise for Them 

A heavy silence hung over the private room for several minutes. Nobody expected things to escalate so quickly

Leo Jones and Jake Parker snapped back to reality, helping Julian Jennings up and leading him to the restroom to clean up. Henry’s pants were also splattered, and Jake Parker offered him a spare pair

Don’t worry 

about me; I’ll just change in the next 

room,Henry said

Jake Parker nodded, impressed that Henry was still so lucid after three bottles of Whisky.Your tolerance is amazing.” 

Henry shrugged.It’s alright.” 

Once Jake Parker left, Henry leaned on Sonya’s shoulder

I think I’m drunk.” 

Sonya leaned over and kissed him.Thank you.” 

For what?” 

For protecting me.” 

Don’t thank me.” 

Huh?” 

It’s 

my duty as a man.” 

Sonya blushed, gently pushing him.Go change, I’ll take Lily home.” 

Lily Lane was asleep at the bar. Sonya woke her

Lily, time to go home.” 

Lily Lane yawned.Why were you gone so long?” 

I was a waitress for a bit.” 

I’ll drive you home; I called a rideshare.” 

Sonya shook her head.It’s a long detour. Ihave a ride.” 

You mean Leo Jones? Okay,Lily Lane didn’t think much of it

Sonya saw Lily Lane into her car before returning. As she approached the private room, the door opened, and Henry pulled her inside

Let’s go 

home.” 

He suddenly scooped her up, placed her on the table, and kissed her. His breath carried the scent of alcohol, but it wasn’t unpleasant; it was intoxicating

The place, the time, it was wrong, but she still wrapped her arms around his neck, responding to the kiss

Passion ignited, unstoppable

Then, they heard voices approaching

Where’s Sonya?Jake Parker asked

Probably left with Lily,Leo Jones replied

Henry should still be here. I’ll take Julian; you take him.” 

Okay.” 

Leo Jones knocked on the door

Henry, I’ll drive you home.” 

Sonya pushed Henry, catching her breath against his chest

Leo Jones doesn’t know about us.” 

We’ll surprise them at the wedding.”

Henry kissed Sonya fiercely, then draped his jacket over her head, lifted her from the table, and held her close as they left

Leo Jones, seeing Henry emerge with someone in his arms, blinked

Who’s this?” 

Henry cleared his throat.My fiancée.” 

You’re getting married?” 

Yes.” Henry kissed Sonya’s head.She’s shy; I’ll introduce you properly later.” 

Right.” 

Outside, Julian Jennings was still ranting

Where’s Sonya? I want her here, now!” 

Jake Parker was exasperated.Sonya’s gone home.” 

Sheshe can’t just leave me! Tell her to come back!” 

Henry whispered to Sonya, When you break up with him, you should cut out his tongue

Luke pulled up. Henry waved to Leo Jones

I’ll send you an invitation.” 

When’s the wedding?Leo Jones asked

September 6th.” 

September 6th

Same day, nice.” 

You and Henry are getting married on the same day?” 

Leo Jones scratched his head. Everyone seemed to choose that date. It was auspicious, but awfully coincidental

Watching Henry and his fiancée drive off, Leo Jones thought the fiancée’s back looked familiar

In the car, Henry removed his jacket. Sonya was looking up at him. She was beautiful, her eyes shining, as if only he existed for her

Henry leaned in to kiss her, but Sonya covered his mouth

She playfully smiled, kissing his hand through her own. He smiled too. Seeing her smile, he couldn’t help but smile

What are you smiling about?Sonya asked

Henry thought for a moment, Happy. Why are you smiling?” 

I’m happy too.” 

Luke’s phone rang

Mr. Sullivan, can I take this? It’s my wife.” 

Of course. Pull over.” 

Thank you.”

Luke looked worried; something was wrong at home. He pulled over and answered the phone

His daughter had sudden stomach pains; his wife was taking her to the hospital for appendicitis Surgery and was scared

Go to the hospital. We’ll take a cab,Henry said

I’ll take you to the villa first, then go to the hospital,Luke insisted

Luke, go straight to the hospital. Don’t worry about us.” 

Sonya opened the door and got out; Henry followed

Luke thanked them and left

Sonya looked around; they were near a subway station
