Sophia signaled to get his meaning and asked Zelda to send the family doctor away.
"If you want to cure a person who is suffering from a mental disease, you need mental..."
Sophia repeated the doctor's words continuously. Her heart seemed to be tangled by countless thin lines. It made her feel extremely messy.
Zelda walked towards Sophia and noticed that she was a little absent-minded, so Zelda asked Sophia cautiously, "Miss, are you still mad at Mr. Victor?"
It reminded Sophia of the arrogant look of Victor. She said, "I don't dare to be mad at him."
"My lady, please don't be so stubborn." Zelda smiled, "you and Mr. Victor, one of you won't confess and the other won't admit anything until you confess everything."
"Although I'm in my middle age, I have experienced a lot. I have experienced any love scandals."
Wearing a bitter smile, Sophia said, "if only it was as you said."
After a pause, she continued, "as you can see, the relationship between me and Victor is not that simple. We don't have a relationship. We just keep a weak relationship by a contract. One day, the contract will be cancelled and I will no longer contact him. "
"Victor just don't like showing his love..."
"Zelda, please don't speak for him. I know what happened between him and me best."
Sophia cut Zelda off from her sentence. Sophia knew exactly what was going on.
She walked to the window, sat down and said helplessly, "I want to be alone..."
Zelda sighed and said, "all right. If you need anything, just call me. I will be right outside."
Then she closed the door and walked out quietly.
Sophia was envy when she looked at the free birds outside.
'Will the birds flying in the sky be troubled by love? Will they be sad because of love?'
Anyway, they are free. The birds were not trapped by the shackles, nor were they met a devil like demon
What would she do if she left Victor?
It was the first time that such a thought had occurred to Sophia. She was surprised, but she felt that it made sense.
Anyway, she would come back to her own world.
Thinking of this, Sophia dragged her tired body and got ready to do it.
She started to pack some necessary things.
Secondly, she must find a new place to live.
Then Sophia took out her phone and called her friends, asking them to help look for a house.
After finishing all these things, Sophia took a deep breath and fell on the bed, looking at everything around with empty eyes.
Although the idea of running away from Victor was very childish, after all, with his power, no matter where she escaped, as long as he wanted to find her, he could definitely find her.
Even so, she still strongly wanted to escape from this man.
Staying with Victor even for a second had become a torment to herself, which made her difficult to breathe...
As the sky grew darker, Victor came home early today.
At this time, Sophia had sorted out her bad mood. She sat on the sofa in the living room and watched the news on TV.
Victor strode towards her and took her in his arms. "Are you feeling better?" He asked in a low voice
Sophia looked at the man who was standing in front of her with a calm face, as if what had happened yesterday was just a dream.
She suddenly smiled as tenderly as she could and said gently, "I'm feeling much better. Did Zelda tell you?"
"She was just worried about you."
Victor explained, feeling relieved when he saw Sophia was happy.
Zelda called him in the afternoon to do a daily report.
When she said Sophia had a fever this morning, somehow he was a little worried. Maybe out of guilt, or anything else, he finished his work as soon as possible and came back to see the woman.
Seeing that Sophia and Victor were getting along well with each other, Zelda couldn't help saying happily, "Victor and Sophia, it's time for dinner."
Sophia nudged Victor gently and said to him with a smile, "it's time for dinner."
Then they walked to the dining room.
This was the first time for Sophia to have put up several dishes on Victor's plate.
Most men liked obedient women, especially those with strong possessive desire.
But when Victor looked at Sophia in front of him who was way to tender, he was slightly surprised. Although he was glad that she was now enlightened, he still felt it a little strange.
Sophia picked up some food for Victor and noticed that he was looking at her suspiciously.
So she asked nervously, "what's wrong?"
"You've gone too far today."
Victor asked, staring at Sophia's expression on her face.
He knew her so well. She was like an unyielding wild horse. Recently she and he had quarreled a lot. It was impossible for her to give in to him so easily unless something was resolved.
"Be gentle to you is courtesy?"
Sophia was afraid that the man in front of her might find out something wrong, so she quickly responded.
Victor smiled and ate the food in his bowl silently.
"Is it true that powerful men always fail to trust people around them?"
But it had never occurred to Sophia before. Although the life in mask looked easy, she hated it the most that she could lose herself.
She told herself that she swallowed humiliation in order to escape from the demon around her.
Suddenly, Sophia felt a grasp on her slender waist from Victor, which interrupted her thinking.
The moonlight poured into the bedroom through the window, making the man beside look particularly charming.
Looking at this man's handsome face, Sophia couldn't help but feel a little lost.
If only nothing had happened between them that would be great.
They just met by chance and then forgot each other. Was it another situation?
However, there was no if in life.
The screen of Sophia's cell phone lit up. Trying not to disturb the man beside her, she lifted the phone lightly.
The brief message read, "the house is ready.".
After reading the message, Sophia wrote, "tomorrow morning."
Then she deleted it without any trace.
Next morning.
Sophia work woke up early. By now, only some white clouds could be seen in the bluish sky.
Glancing at the man who was still in sound sleep next to her, she got up quietly.
After she cleaned herself up, she went into the kitchen and began to pick up the kitchenware that she had never touched before. Then she began to cook in a low voice.
"Miss, you?"
Zelda, who had just got up and yawned, stood at the kitchen door in surprise and looked at Sophia with apron. Sophia took the pot to cook something.
Sophia smiled shyly and said, "did I disturb you, Zelda?"
"No, no, no! Please let me do it for you!"
As she spoke, Zelda hurried into the kitchen and took the cooking equipment from Sophia's hand.
"You and Victor have taken care of me for such a long time, and I just want to make you breakfast as much as I can..."
After that, she continued her cooking.
"My lady, is there anything wrong with you?" Zelda guessed.
Afraid that Zelda might overthink about it, Sophia responded, "don't overthink about it. I just want to try my cooking skills. That's all!"
She then pushed Zelda out of the kitchen and prepared the ingredients herself.
