Chapter 62: Ridiculous
Chapter 62: Ridiculous
Sophia's POV:
"You can sleep in my room---"
"No!" I cut him off, shaking my head. This idea is ridiculous.
He closed the front door and walked past me towards the stairs.
"You will sleep in my room and I will sleep in the guest room!" He glared at me and started walking
upstairs.
I was left speechless until an idea came to my mind. I smiled inwardly and was about to walk back
outside when I heard his voice again.
"Don't you dare continue what you're thinking, Sophia, because they won't let you out of the gate!"
-'This is bullshit!'-
I muttered to myself as I closed my eyes and sighed. I know he was referring to all his security guards.
"I'm not doing anything and I'm not even moving here!"
"Yeah, but I know you're planning to."
"You said we will talk, then why don't we start the conversation so I can go home now?"
"I told you, this is your home!"
"Why do you keep insisting that this is my home?" He didn't say anything so I kept talking. "If you only
want to talk about our marriage or our agreement, then let's talk about it now! I'm so tired, I really want
to sleep now and I want to go home! I'm sure Bryan is now worried about me!" I screamed in frustration
as I stepped forward. I haven't called him yet.
"No!"
I looked at him confused.
"What do you mean no?"
"We will not talk about it tonight."
"What the----"
"You said you're tired, so you have to take rest and we will just discuss it by tomorrow." And he
disappeared from my sight.
"Argh! You're unbelievable!"
As long as I wanted to scream on top of my lungs, I remembered we're not the only people in the
house. I could disturb Nanay Emily, Tatay Berto and the other maids if I do it, so I just balled my fists
hard and pulled my hair out of frustration. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

I was about to knock on his door when it suddenly opened and the face of my handsome but arrogant
husband appeared in from of me.
I gulped as I couldn't help gazing at his well-toned chest. He was now wearing a white shirt that fitted
perfectly to his broad shoulders and muscled stomach. And a gray cotton pants that hug his hips and---
ohhh.
"You're drooling, sweetheart."
"Huh! What?" My eyes widened when I looked at him and found him having a mischievous smile on his
lips.
"I said you're drooling."
I bit my lips and lowered my head when I felt my face turned into a thousands shades of tomato.
"You know what, sweetheart, you just have to say a word and you will have this body tonight. And I will
make sure you will never forget the experience for the rest of your life." He smirked.
I blinked my eyes rapidly as I gazed up at him. Ignoring the loud hammering in my chest, I pushed him
aside and brushed past him to enter his room.
"Oops! Take it easy, sweetheart. I didn't know you're too eager----"
"Shut up, Daniel Kelley! I have self-respect and I'm not the kind of woman you're thinking!"
"Really?" He sneered. "But you have already given your body to your ex-fiance's friend before your
wedding." He shook his head as he looked at me with pure mockery.
And for the second time, I felt like I wanted to kill, I wanted to kill the person who's responsible for
bringing lies in his head.
"Aren't you going to ask me the side of my story and what was the real happened in my past?" I tried to
calm myself as I asked him the same question I remembered having done a few weeks ago.
"For what, to add your lies?"
"Then why did you bring me here if you don't have a plan to listen to me? For what, to insult me again
like you always did before?" I took a deep breath and gulped the lump that formed in my throat. "You
will never understand me if you won't let me explain."
"Tss! Then why didn't you tell me these things before our wedding? I asked you then, remember? I
asked you why you accepted this arrangement but you didn't tell me! You chose to lie and then now
you want to explain? Do you think I would believe you?"
"I tried to explain myself but you didn't believe me, so what more then, when you didn't want to talk to
me? You didn't know how to talk to me without throwing unnerving insults and judgement on my face?
You can't even look at me then, as if I had an infectious disease!"
He didn't say anything so I continued talking.
"Why don't you just file a divorce petition? Let's end this agreement and this fake marriage! You have
already signed the deal with Mr. Giovanni, your company has won the award as the top-grossing
company in California and you have already had the best position in your life. So why do we have to
prolong this agreement?"
"No! I am the one who will decide when I want to end this agreement!"
"So what took you so long when you said you didn't want to believe me? Do you know what I have
realized? Why should I defend myself if I am misjudged and misunderstood? I don't live for those
people and I don't live for your judgement. If you don't want to believe me, then why should I force you?
Why should I convince you to believe me if you judge me anyway, whatever I do?"
I shook my head as I chuckled sarcastically. I didn't hear anything from him until I pulled my suitcase
under his bed.
"What are you doing?" He asked with knitted eyebrows.
"I am pulling my suitcase." I shrugged. "I'm sure you already know what I am going to do next, right?"
"No!" He only took three long strides from the door to my direction. "You won't take your things, not until
I say so!"
And by that point, I was the one in shock and asked him what he was doing, but he just ignored my
question and took the suitcase from my hand.
"Go to sleep! We will talk tomorrow!" He said glaring at me before he walked to the door, pulling my
bag.
"What the hell are you doing? Why are you taking my bag?"
"So you shouldn't be able to think of escaping this time."
"Escaping? What are you talking about?"
"Go to sleep now, Sophia! I will be in the next room, so don't try to do something ridiculous, if you don't
want me to tie you in bed the whole night!"
"Ridiculous? You dragged me out of the party, you brought me here and now you want me to sleep in
your room, isn't what you're doing can be called ridiculous? Why don't you just give me the key to my
old room so I can sleep there and you'll sleep here?"
"No! You will stay here and we will talk tomorrow!"
And before I could form another word, he went out of the door and closed it immediately.
"Seriously? Did he just shut the door? Argh!"
