My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 371

Although her face was oily, Sophia put on a refreshing smile on her face. “I’m afraid I won’t be able to attend your piano concert because I have to take part in a world championship tomorrow.”

Natasha sized her up skeptically from head to toe before letting out a snort because she was unconvinced that Sophia could be someone who had anything to do with a world championship. “It’s enough as long as Michael will be there.”

When Natasha walked past her, she caught a sniff of the stench made up of instant noodles and cigarette smoke which could only be found in cybercafes. Frowning in disgust, she got into a car which was waiting for her at the front of the residential area and left.

Sophia could still smell Natasha’s rose-scented perfume and it lingered in the air long after she was gone.

Along her way back, she realized she smelled very bad, which was inevitable because she had been playing the game drenched in sweat for the whole night because of the excitement.

As she started scratching her disheveled hair, dandruff started falling off from her scalp.

When she reached home, Maria was keeping away the cups on the coffee table in the living room. Judging from the looks of it, she had just entertained a visitor, who was none other than Natasha that she just met.

Two invitation cards which gave off a pleasant-smelling scent were placed on the coffee table.

She didn’t even have to think to know who they were from.

She was upset in an instant wondering whether Michael was interested to attend Natasha’s piano concert.

 

Judging from Natasha’s tone, that seemed to be the case.

As Maria was keeping away two tea cups and a tea set, she reckoned Michael and Natasha must have been chatting in the living room just now.

 

There was even a strand of Natasha’s hair on the sofa!

They must have been edging closer and closer to each other and Natasha might have even sat on Michael’s lap just now!

The more she thought about that, the angrier she became.

At night, Sophia took a shower and trimmed her brows. Over the past fortnight since she came back from Kuwait, she had been spending most of her time waiting for information on Cooper and she had not been in the mood to take care of her own appearance. Because of that, she had turned into a messy middle-aged married woman without her realizing.

After applying a mask on her face, she returned to the bedroom to find Michael already lying on the bed, looking all fresh and clean. As soon as he saw her, he patted on the empty space beside him and beckoned her over. “Come, get into bed and let’s make love.”

Thinking about Natasha’s smug look and the two tea cups and two bright red invitation cards she saw in the living room just now, she was furious.

“Not for me. I’m too tired after gaming for one whole day and I have no energy for that.”

She lay down on the bed and deliberately turned to the other side to show that she was mad.

It seemed like Michael could not sense her anger at all as he extended his arm and wrapped it around her body before whispering gently next to her ears, “I’m going to attend Natasha’s piano concert tomorrow. Do you want to join me?”

I was right!

Sophia was about to blow her top.

Didn’t he know that she was not on good terms with Natasha?

Didn’t he know that it was Natasha’s father who caused her father’s death?

She couldn’t believe he still wanted to attend her piano concert despite that.

In a furious tone, she snapped, “I’m not joining because I have to be at the stadium for the tournament at two thirty in the afternoon.”

In fact, she still harbored a glimmer of expectation that Michael would go watch her game at the National Stadium when she said that.

But to her dismay, Michael responded thoughtlessly, “Really? Since the venue of Natasha’s piano concert is just opposite the National Stadium and it’s going to start forty minutes before your tournament, why don’t you attend the concert first before you go to the stadium?”

His answer drove Sophia up the wall.

Despite knowing that the stadium was only opposite Natasha’s piano concert venue, he would rather go and watch her concert than watching her game at the stadium!

She really wondered which one out of them was his wife!

Sophia was so pissed off that she didn’t feel like continuing the conversation with him. “I’m going to sleep because I need to be at my best at the tournament tomorrow!”

Are you trying to seduce my Lord by inviting him to that piano concert of yours?

Fine! You’ll be reduced to nothing once I win the tournament tomorrow!

Michael stretched his arm to turn off the night lamp. Some scented candles were lit in the room to release an extremely pleasant smell that could help them sleep more peacefully. As Sophia had spent the entire day as well as the previous night gaming, she soon succumbed to the overwhelming lethargy and fell asleep despite being angry.

A clock affixed to the wall atop was constantly producing a soothing ticking sound. In the serene environment, Michael planted a kiss on Sophia’s cheeks before he watched her tense body slowly become relaxed until she fell asleep.
