Win Your Heart novel Chapter 111

"You're right. But I'm afraid that Terence will hold on to this. They must just take this opportunity to bully Victor..." However, Grace was still very worried. To be honest, her mood had not been good since afternoon. As long as she thought of the news and the situation she was about to face, she had a bad feeling.

There had been nothing going on between Grace and Karl, since the day they got married, and their marriage had been a success. Now she was praying that Sophia the unlucky girl could leave Victor earlier...

"By the way, Grace, have someone investigate Sophia. She isn't as simple as she looks. There must be some exaggeration in this news. It was a slander against Victor and Sophia. I think it's just a beginning... " The yummy food on the table couldn't arouse Karl's appetite. He thought for a while and then continued to speak to Grace, "find out the culprit. I'd like to see his ultimate goal!"

Karl's words reminded Grace. 'This news is just a beginning. They don't know what will happen next, ' she mused. Therefore, she must investigate it.

"You are right. I have thought about it carefully. If it's only about Sophia, their goal is not that terrible, but for Victor, Xiao family will certainly be put on the top of the line... " When Grace analyzed the current situation, she couldn't help shivering.

"Well, let's have dinner now. The dishes are getting cold!" Karl interrupted Grace's train of thoughts and urged her to have dinner.

Grace lost her appetite while muttering to herself. As far as she was concerned, Victor might be the one for their aim. She couldn't watch her son going into the abyss...

…… It was late at night. Although Sophia threw herself on the bed, she couldn't fall asleep for a long time. She looked at Victor in sound sleep and sighed.

"Why not sleep?" Unexpectedly, Victor's low voice rang in her ears, breaking the quiet of this night.

Sophia was surprised, "you haven't slept either, have you?" Slowly, she moved her body and rested her head on Victor's broad shoulder. It seemed that only in this way could her dangling heart relax.

At the same time, Victor stretched out his long arms and held her in his arms. He frowned and said, "you're getting thinner again..."

"Well... I was thinking about what happened earlier. I couldn't fall asleep... " Sophia pressed her cheek against his chest and took a deep breath, enjoying the unique mint tobacco scent from Victor next to her. Somehow, she had a feeling that this man was about to leave her.

"It's okay. I have known all the truth. I'll look into it." Victor understood that it was a big blow to Sophia. Having been at the top of the power, the tenderness in Victor's eyes had long gone, which prevented him from saying more words. But he would get a statement for Sophia with real action.

Sophia's voice became weaker and weaker. She said, "I don't care about this. I'm just afraid that you will leave me." Only she knew how much she cared about the people around her.

All of a sudden, Victor turned around and looked Sophia. The room was completely dark in the middle of the night. There was no light in it. The night vision of Victor was very good. He had already adapted to the darkness, so he could see Sophia's exquisite face. He reached out and held her small face. It was as small as a palm, but felt cold. It hit the defense in Victor's heart.

Victor tried to warm Sophia's body with his warm palm and said slowly, "I'm here."

"I'm here." the simple words gave Sophia power. She nodded heavily and covered his big hand with her little hand.

"Why is it cold again?" Victor wondered. 'How scared in the woman's heart?' Thinking of this, he suddenly got down on Sophia's body. Although Sophia could clearly feel the man on top of her, who was emitting a sexual aura.

Victor looked down at Sophia's delicate face. Her long eyelashes fluttered as if a small flame ignited Victor's heart. Her bright eyes sparkled like a lonely star in the dark night.

***Edward skipped the topic***

They had a tacit understanding. The whole room was shrouded in the darkness, with only ambiguous breathing sound...

"Have you heard that Sophia in our company is an illegitimate daughter and her life is promiscuous..."

Sophia took a cup and was about to make coffee in the tea room. When she just walked to the door, she heard someone talking about her. Two young staff whispered, fondling the teacup.
