My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 84

However, Nathan seemed uninterested with their offers. He just sat there, eating his watermelon while looking at them impassively. He didn’t even say anything.

The surrounding Company 49 students looked on; even though they were angry, they did not dare to say anything since Faye was an Edwards after all. Should they mess with the Edwards, they’d suffer serious consequences. Hence, there was nothing they could do except to watch Nathan being snatched away from them.

Right at that moment, Sophia pushed her way through the crowd and asked, “What’s going on here?”

Nathan remained silent. Gemma, who had been enjoying her popsicle quietly beside Nathan, chuckled and explained, “Sophia, Faye wants Nate to be her god brother; she’s planning on bringing him over to their company.”

“Faye, this is Sophia. She is very close to Nate, and Nate will listen to everything she says!” Xyla pointed her finger at Sophia immediately as she whispered to Faye in her ear. A gloating look flashed through her eyes.

Faye was Xyla’s cousin; they were very close to each other. Before they came, Xyla had reminded Faye to mess with Sophia whether she decided to hand over Nathan or not.

She had actually hoped that Sophia would act proud like how she behaved before this; it would be great if Sophia managed to offend Faye. In that case, she would definitely not be able to survive at Bayside University anymore.

Faye didn’t look very friendly indeed; she studied Sophia from head to toe for a while. There was a look of disdain hidden in her arrogant eyes, and it seemed like she was looking at an insignificant bug. “So, you’re Sophia?”

Sophia nodded in a dignified manner. “Yes.”

Before Faye could say another word, Richard grabbed Sophia immediately and reminded her in a low voice. “Sophia, now is not the best time to fool around. She is Faye, the wealthy daughter of the prominent Edwards Family. If she wants Nate, you should just agree to it and hand him over to her!”

Still, Richard didn’t want Sophia to offend the Edwards. If she did, then Sophia would definitely not be able to stay in Bayside University anymore.

Xyla was so furious that she almost fainted when she noticed how Richard still cared for Sophia during a time like this. Not willing to lose face, she pretended to act kind and advised Sophia too. “Yeah, Richard is right. My cousin is an Edwards; she likes Nate very much and is ready to take him back to the Edwards Family. If Nate agrees, then he’ll be a part of the Edwards Family…”

At the same time, she didn’t forget to hold Richard’s hand as she said that. She sounded like Richard’s kind and considerate wife who was giving advice to his mean and inconsiderate mistress.

“Hmph!” Sophia really couldn’t bring herself to watch such an awful and disgusting show the duo put on. She protested bluntly, “Sorry, but Nate is my darling. I won’t give him away.”

Nathan quietly swept away Richard’s hand that was holding onto Sophia’s arm before he grabbed her delicate hand and glared at Richard alertly. Sophia was his father’s woman, and he was determined not to allow anyone to have their eyes on her.

Xyla was ecstatic when she saw Sophia rejecting Faye’s offer in a rude and harsh manner. Carry on, carry on! Just keep on acting arrogant! It’s even better if you offend Faye!

She couldn’t wait for Sophia and Faye to fight against each other. Xyla really hoped that Sophia would offend Edwards for good, and she would no longer be able to stay in Bayside University or Bayside City for that matter.

She pretended to persuade Sophia again. “Sophia, my cousin is…”

“Sorry, I’m not giving him away,” Sophia rejected coldly. However, a gentle and cheerful expression crossed her face when she turned to face Nathan. She pinched Nathan’s delicate cheek gently and said, “Don’t worry, I promise I won’t give you away to anyone.”

He was Michael’s only son and Joel’s nephew; if she gave him away to someone else, she would certainly be skinned alive! Besides, Nathan was so cute. She wanted to keep him for herself and couldn’t possibly give him away to someone else.

Nathan nodded coldly with an unemotional expression on his face. However, he felt slightly content deep within his heart. Then, he continued to enjoy his popsicle; he just liked to see Sophia fighting with others over him. It proved that he was far more important to Sophia compared to Michael!

Everyone was impressed by Sophia’s courage and agreed with her decision secretly. However, they noticed the grim look on Miss Faye’s face at the same time.

Faye stared at Sophia in disbelief. “What did you say?”

Sophia replied to her seriously word by word. “Sorry, I’m not giving my son away to anyone.”
