Revenge On My First Love novel Chapter 531

Chapter 531 Come On, Babe!

There was a smile on Sophia's face, "Drake, you are back!"
Drake looked at her with a confused look, "I thought you were at work."
He remembered that when he left home in the morning, Sophia was at work. Why had she come home now after only a short time?
Sophia hugged him, "My husband has just got laid off. Shouldn't I come home and check on you?"
Then she patted his back, "It's okay. From now on, I'll make money to support our family."
"Well then, now I'm really a house husband. Don't you despise me years later!"
"Why would I? With your pretty face, I'll work harder for you as long as you take good care of me."
Drake thought for a second, "Well, guess I should learn how to become a good house husband."
"Papa!" Bonnie reached out her hands, "Welcome home!"
Bonnie was the most satisfied with it. It was such good news, and she got to be with her papa every day.
Sophia took the suitcase in Drake's hands. He then crouched down and took Bonnie in his arms.
"You're gonna stay with Papa every day now, Do you like it?"
"Yeah!"
Bonnie then held his face with her hands and kissed his cheek pretty hard.
Drake didn't realize until he got his daughter that there was a little creature in the world whom he would miss and love so much.
Especially when this little creature was a child who looked a lot like him. It was so sweet, and he looked at her with a feeling that his heart would melt.
Sophia put his suitcase into the study. And she was going to leave for work after saying goodbye to Drake.
Suddenly, Drake pulled her into his arms.
Bonnie smiled like she was touched by the intimacy of her parents.
"Come on, babe!"
He kissed Sophia's lips as he said it.
Sophia replied with a smile, "Don't worry. And if you wanna buy something, just tell me. I'll get you anything you want only if I'm happy about your service at home."
"Got it!"
It was the first time Drake had realized that it was actually nice to rely on his wife.
Sophia returned to the office. Sara walked towards her, looking like she had an urge to say something.
Sophia took a glance at her, "You wanna say something? Just say it."
"I was drunk last time and it led to the scandal about you. I'm so sorry. I didn't know things would go this way."
Sophia could see her guilt, but for some reason, Sara didn't look like she was really guilty.
Sophia thought it was okay if Sara didn't apologize to her. But she got suspicious now that Sara did.
Sara felt a bit uncomfortable being stared at, so she hurriedly said, "It's okay if you blame me for it, really. I'll take the blame."
"Sara!"
Sophia called her.
Sara trembled slightly.
"What's the point of saying sorry? Can something that happened be reversed? Like Drake's grandpa. Can you bring him back to life?"
"I..."
Sara suddenly didn't know what to say.
Sophia made a shush sign by extending her hand.
"You don't have to say sorry to me. This has nothing to do with you. But, you did apologize. Are you a part of this?"
Sophia looked at Sara with an intimidating look as if she had known everything.
Sara froze and for a moment she thought, 'Does she know something? Why would she say that?'
"Ms. Lawson, why do you think I'm a part of this? I... I had no idea this would happen!"
Sophia didn't know why, but her intuition made her think this way. However, intuition alone was not enough.
"Never mind. What is done cannot be undone. Go back to work."
"Ms. Lawson, there's another thing. Check the news here."
Sophia took over the tablet computer in Sara's hand and saw the news about Drake.
The picture showed that Drake looked calm in the interview, as if leaving the Riley Group had not affected him at all.
But the news said-
Mr. Riley looks calm after leaving the Riley Group, but who knows if he will make a comeback or not?
We all know that there's gonna be only one winner in the power game within this rich family.
Mr. Riley lost this time for sure, but will he lose again? Let's wait and see!
There was not a single good word about him. They all thought that he lost unwillingly this time and would definitely get even in the future.
Others might not know what Drake was thinking, but Sophia did. She couldn't believe those reporters would say that.
Did they do this on purpose or not?
Sara asked, "Should we take care of it?"
Sophia passed back the tablet to Sara, "Nope. A clean hand needs no washing. If we say something about it, they'll be more sure of their speculation."
"Got it."
Sara then walked out as there was nothing else.
Sophia called Mia after she was certain that Sara had gone far. She told Mia to investigate Sara and see if she had been in contact with someone fishy lately.
Mia soon finished investigating. She said to Sophia that Sara did not contact with anyone suspicious.
Sophia frowned and thought, 'Was that really an accident that day? She and Rashad truly did not know each other?'
But Sophia thought that things were not that simple. Since Rashad was a top hacker and could erase any trace of his contact with Sara, it made sense that she could not find it out.
If she could not prove the connection between Sara and Rashad, then she must be more careful and keep an eye on Sara.
Sophia returned home after work. And she heard a lot of noises from cars coming this way when she was about to get in. She turned around and saw Flynn's, Bailey's, and Travis' cars, which surprised her.
Drake walked out with a smile, "Sophia, I called them here. This is the first day since I became a house husband. So I invite them to check if I'm qualified. And I'll work harder if I fail this time."
Chloe walked over and said with a smile, "Who knows! Thanks to Sophia, we got to eat the food Drake cooked. This doesn't happen every day!"
"Hey! Not just any food! Mr. Riley told us on the phone! It's pizza!" Flynn, who was standing aside, said the word "pizza" louder on purpose.
"That's right. I forgot. It's pizza! But, I heard he had put it in the oven himself after the pizza guy delivered it. Still, our pleasure, am I right?"
"True!"
People walked in and they all wanted to play with Bonnie when they saw her.
Travis came up to Sophia, "I'm here today to check on your husband. If he's not qualified to take good care of you, I'll find you another one!"
