Chapter 17 Dinner for Three?
“Well, I’ll keep an eye on it.”
Leonardo Cooper looked like he was driving, and his ears weren’t idle.
Their call, Leonardo Cooper heard it word for word.
Especially Sophie Sabastian’s slightly petulant tone made his grip on the steering wheel unconsciously clench, and he didn’t even notice until his hands were miserably white and bloodless due to too much force.
When they got near the TV station, Sophie Sabastian motioned for Leonardo Cooper to pull around the corner.
She pushed open the car door and was about to get out when Leonardo Cooper called out to her, handing over a Yunnan Baiyao aerosol with a cold face, “Take it and spray it every once in a while, it will get better faster.”
“Thanks.” Sophie Sabastian hesitated and reached for it.
Her fingertips accidentally touched the man’s fingers, Sophie Sabastian’s fingers were numb, as if she was electrocuted, she hurriedly withdrew her hand and stuffed the aerosol into her bag, and flew away with a face full of embarrassment.
Leonardo Cooper only looked down at the fingers that she had just touched, the tingling sensation of electrocution still remains, and even her temperature remains, the corners of his lips rose, and his eyebrows softened.
Sophie Sabastian has not yet entered the office, from afar, can smell a strong fragrance of flowers.
Pushing open the door, she realized that her colleagues were gathered in front of Ximena’s desk, gabbing about something, she curiously walked over and asked with a smile, “What’s wrong, so lively early in the morning?”
“Sophie’s here?” A coworker stepped aside.
It was only then that Sophie Sabastian realized that there was a huge bouquet of blue roses on Ximena’s desk, all of which were very delicate.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
The colleague said enviously, “Ximena’s boyfriend is very nice, he sent such a big bouquet of blue goblins over early in the morning, and it’s said that they were flown in from Holland, so we’re all envious!”
“Ximena, congratulations.” Sophie Sabastian walked in and said to Ximena with a smile, “Looks like the other party is treating you well, when are you going to invite us for a wedding drink?”
“It sure won’t take long!” Another colleague said, pulling Ximena’s hand to show Sophie Sabastian, “Look, her boyfriend even gave her a ring, it’s only a matter of time before she gets married!”
On Ximena’s left ring finger was a sparkling diamond ring, the diamond was so big that it was comparable to a pigeon egg.
Sophie Sabastian’s eyebrows jumped, something strange in her heart.
A few months ago, when she went on vacation with Wilson to Paris, she had seen this ring in the display case of a jewelry store, and because of the large diamonds, she had jokingly said to Wilson that this kind of ring was cumbersome to wear.
She didn’t expect to see that ring on Ximena’s hand again today.
It was too much of a coincidence.
“Not so fast!” Ximena was a bit shy at being said, but her eyes seemed to unintentionally glance twice towards Sophie Sabastian, “It’s just a ring, you guys think too much.”
Seeing Sophie Sabastian not say anything, Ximena asked, “Sophie, what’s wrong?”
“No, nothing.” Sophie Sabastian said. In her heart, she was thinking: this ring is an international brand, it’s not a customized model, it’s normal for Ximena’s boyfriend to buy it and give it to her, maybe she’s overthinking it.
“Don’t worry, even if it’s a wedding, you’ll be in front of me.” Something seemed to pass through Ximena’s eyes as she took Sophie Sabastian’s hand and laughed, “You forgot, I said I would be your maid of honor.”
“Look at that, something’s up!” A nearby coworker coaxed Ximena to treat her to some wedding candy.
Ximena agreed and called for a delivery.
Sophie Sabastian looked at Ximena surrounded by her coworkers, and then looked at the large bouquet of blue goblins, her temples were vaguely aching, but she didn’t feel that there was anything wrong.
It should be that he hadn’t rested well in the past two days, always thinking too much.
Zona’s interview was edited and modified, and then broadcast out on Friday night.
Because the other party was a popular celebrity, plus Sophie Sabastian’s hotness, the ratings of that program were very high. Sophie Sabastian took a few more interviews with a bang, and was busy as hell.
If Wilson hadn’t called, she would have forgotten about the whole dinner together thing.
“Sophie,” Ximena didn’t leave even after work and came over to Sophie Sabastian’s side, saying, “It’s been a while since we’ve had a nice dinner together, why don’t we go for seafood tonight, my treat?”
“Tonight?” Sophie Sabastian froze and smiled apologetically, “I’m afraid I can’t tonight.”
Only moments ago Wilson had called her and said he’d pick up later, and now, Ximena was asking her out again.
“What’s the matter, is … going to dinner with your boyfriend?” Ximena asked, see Sophie Sabastian nodded, seems to be a little lost, and smiled and said, “It’s okay, then next time about it, boyfriend is more important!”
“That …” see Ximena like this, Sophie Sabastian can not bear, can not help but say, “or not together.”
