Vincent’s POV
“Where’s Sophie?” I asked Venom as soon as I entered the mansion.
“She said that she went to her best friend’s house, Sir. She also said that she already informed you about it.”
I nodded. “So she went there, huh? For sure it’s not even her best friend that she’s meeting up with. She kept on stuttering when she told me about it last night.”
Venom didn’t say anything.
I don’t have anything to do today that’s why I went home early. I was planning on playing around with Sophie all day just to keep myself entertained but looks like she’s entertaining herself by being with somebody else.
I think she’s having so much freedom and I don’t like it.
My phone started ringing. “Vincent.”
“Boss, we already found him.”
It was Joe, one of my men.
“Who?”
“Felix, Boss. That bastard who planned on escaping from you. He underwent plastic surgery so that we wouldn’t be able to know him that easily and he even pretended to be someone else. He is now known as George Lautner, a bar owner, and a wealthy tycoon.”
I laughed. “A wealthy tycoon, huh? Acting as if he didn’t steal any money from me. Are you with him right now?”
“Yes, boss.”
“Good. Just keep him there. I’ll go there later. Make sure he wouldn’t be able to escape. I want to see him suffering and I want to kill him in my own hands.”
“I understand, boss.”
I went outside the mansion only for me to see a familiar car outside. I walked out of the gate and glanced at the car.
“Boss, I would also like to inform you about our company’s collaboration with Mrs. Portmann. She said that she wants to meet you as soon as possible.”
That car is familiar to me.
“Boss?”
“What?”
“About Mrs. Portmann.”
“What about her?”
“She said she wants to see you as soon as possible.”
I held my phone in my other hand while my eyes were still locked on the car. “Tell her that I would meet her tomorrow.”
“I understand, boss.”
“Is that all?”
“Yes, boss.”
I hang up the phone and was about to walk towards the familiar car when Sophie suddenly stepped out of it. She ran towards me clutching her bag to her chest. “V-Vincent.”
“You look beautiful, where have you been?”
“I-I already told you about it, right? I went to Sabrina’s house…” she almost mumbled.
“Wearing that dress?” I said while staring at her.
She bit her lower lip. She has the habit of biting her lip whenever she’s nervous or whenever she tries to lie to me. She doesn’t inow how much I want to bite those lips.
“I-I just feel like wearing it.”
“You wore a dress going to your best friend’s house but a simple t-shirt when we went out on a date.”
“Let’s go inside now.” She suddenly said as if she was in a hurry.
I put my arms around her waist as I sniffed her neck. “Go on, I’ll follow later.”
“O-Okay.” She said then she hurriedly went inside the mansion.
I looked at the car again. I started walking towards it with my brows furrowed, trying to recall where I saw it before.
The door went open and I was surprised to see the person who just stepped out of it.
He was holding Sophie’s phone in his hand but he stopped when he saw me. “V?”
“L-Lance?”
Sophie’s POV
“H-Hi, Venom."
“Miss Sophie, the boss has been looking for you.”
I smiled. “Yes, I saw him outside.”
Venom just nodded. “I understand. Would you like me to prepare your bath for you now?”
“Yes, please. Thank you so much, Venom.”
I looked at the mirror and I smiled as soon as I saw the hairpin that Lance just gave me.
It’s too cute. And what’s cuter is the fact that it reminded him of me the moment that he saw it.
I was about to call Sabrina again and tell her about what just happened when I realized that my bag was not in my bag.
“W-Where is my phone?”
I tried to look for it inside my bag again but I still didn’t find it.
My eyes widened. “Maybe I left it inside Lance’s car!
”
I hurriedly ran outside thee mansion to see if he’s still there.
I wonder if he’s still there…
Wait, I think Vincent is still outside. That means…
Just as I stepped out of the mansion’s gate, I saw Lance and Vincent looking at each other with surprised looks on their faces.
They both looked at me.
