In response to Thomas Heartwells actions, Sophias heart was already numb, she closed her eyes, and the expected pain did not come, she opened her eyes and saw Thomas Heartwells hand being pinched by Maxwell.
"I just had a stain on my clothes, so I asked Miss Heartwell to wipe it for me, I dont know why Mr. Heartwell is so angry?" Maxwell lied without any trace of guilt.
Seeing this, Thomas Heartwell could not say anything, he just asked the servant to prepare dinner and asked Maxwell to stay for dinner.
"Is Miss Heartwell welcome to stay?" Maxwell deliberately threw this difficult question to Sophia.
Sophia could feel the hot gaze from the Heartwell family, and for his help in resolving the situation just now, she gave a step down.
"You can do as you please." After speaking, she sat down at the dining table and began to eat.
Jade Lee gave her daughter Anna Heartwell a wink, and the latter quickly ran up to hold Maxwells hand, but was avoided by Maxwell.
"There is no need to be polite, just be casual." Maxwell also sat down, but it is unknown whether it was intentional or not, sitting next to Sophia.
At the dinner table, Thomas Heartwell and Jade Lee kept praising Anna Heartwells good things, seemingly trying to connect the two, and Anna Heartwell was not to be outdone, showing her strengths, the three members of the family were smiling, and Sophia seemed like an outsider.
Sophia was used to it, ever since her father married Jade Lee, her mother passed away, she has been in this kind of environment.
And Maxwell did not refuse, nor did he express his attitude, which made Thomas Heartwell and Jade Lee even more delighted.
Sophia buried her head and regarded herself as a transparent person, poking the bowl with chopsticks, and a sour feeling spread in her heart, and she suddenly lost her appetite for the delicious food on the table.
"Why dont you stay at Heartwells house for the night?" Thomas Heartwell suggested.
Maxwell glanced at Sophia with the corners of his eyes, with a sly smile on the corner of his mouth.
Sophia dropped her chopsticks, couldnt bear to listen anymore, got up and ran upstairs to her room.
After taking a bath, turning off the light, and lying on the bed, she couldnt sleep, her mind replaying Maxwell, wondering if he stayed? What is he doing with Anna Heartwell?
A slight sound rang out in the dark, and Sophia was a little scared and wanted to speak, but she was already covered by the mouth.
"Dont make a sound!"
Looking at the mans outline in the dark, Sophia was stunned.
It turned out to be Maxwell? What is he doing in her room so late? Wait, she locked the door, where did he come from?
Seems to know what she is thinking, Maxwell asked with a bad smile: "Of course, I came over the window. Do you really want me to spend the night with another woman?"
Sophia was a bit angry at his dangerous action, but also a bit powerless.
She and he have long been unrelated, what qualifications does she have to manage?
She looked away, pursed the corner of her lips and didnt speak, she moved to one side, pulled the quilt higher, but accidentally touched a warm object, her wrist was immediately clasped, and then Maxwell turned over and pressed on her.
"If you move again, believe it or not, I will do it right away?" The mans voice was hoarse, containing a hint of emotion.
Sophia reacted to what it was, her face turned red instantly, and she tightened her body and dared not move.
It seems to be back to five years ago, when they were still together, she would often tease him, and he would press her like this and let her not move, but the two did not break through the last relationship.
The two people silently looked at each other in the dark, and neither spoke again. Sophia wanted to get up, but she was firmly imprisoned in Maxwells arms and couldnt move.
"Shen..."
"Close your eyes and sleep yours!" His bodys reaction was a bit eager, which made Sophia feel embarrassed.
Sophia was angry and didnt understand what this person was going to do, so she simply closed her eyes and recited lambs in her heart, constantly warning herself to be calm and calm!
I dont know how long it took, Sophia actually fell asleep relying on the warmth.
This night, Sophia slept particularly sweetly, without nightmares, without insomnia, it can be said to be the best sleep in five years!
