Sophie’s POV
“Get inside the car.” Vincent said as soon as he saw me stepped outside of the mansion.
I didn’t give him a glance. “No, I can go there with Venom.”
“Get inside the car, Venom.”
Venom immediately followed him. I glanced at Venom and was about to sit next to her but then Vincent suddenly grabbed my hand which made me look at him.
“You are going to sit next to me. I’m not your driver.”
I didn’t speak anymore. I just went inside his car and I didn’t speak until we reached the university.
“I’ll pick you up later so don’t go without me.”
“Let’s go, Venom.” I said then I quickly stepped out of Vincent’s car, ignoring what he was saying.
“Miss Sophie, wait!”
I just continue walking and Venom was able to walk beside me. “Miss Sophie, is there a problem? Did you fight with the boss again?”
“Please don’t even mention that asshole, Venom. I don’t even want to hear his name. I don’t want to see his face, I don’t want to hear his voice, I don’t want to hear or see anything about that asshole who can’t move on from his ex.”
Venom got surprised because of what I just said but she just nodded and remained quiet.
If only I can just leave that mansion and go somewhere else, I would really do that. How can he even act like he was jealous when he doesn’t really care about me? He only cares for his stupid ego and that woman!
I really hate him!
“Sophie!!”
Just when I was about to go to our building, Lance called me. I turned around to see him running towards me with the usual smile on his face. “Good morning, Mr. Jacobs.”
“Good Morning, Sophie.” he stared at my face confusingly. “Why do you look so sad? Did something happen? Is there a problem?”
And that moment I knew I would burst into tears any moment but I bit my lip just so I could avoid it. “He doesn’t really care about me, Mr. Jacobs. He only cares about his ego. He doesn’t like to see me flirting with somebody else not because he’s jealous but because it’s hurting his ego…”
“What wait, please tell me what happened last night, Sophie. Let’s go to my office.”

“He got mad last night and told me to stop flirting with some other guy whenever he’s around.”
“Then that’s good news. That only means he feel jealous, right? I told you, Sophie. Vincent really loves you.”
I shook my head. “He doesn’t get jealous. He said it’s hurting his ego to see me with someone else.”
“Oh, really? He said that?”
“Yeah. He’s a total asshole. A jerk, I badly want to punch him in the face!”
Lance thought for a while before talking again. “Please don’t get mad at him, Sophie. You know, Vincent is really like that. He tends to say some things that contradict his real feelings but believe me, he felt jealous and he cares about you.”
“That will never happen, Lance. Now I’m wondering why I even fell for that scumbag.” I mumbled as tears began filling my eyes.
“No, believe me, my brother loves you he just can’t admit it. By the way, your birthday is already next week, right? It’s your debut? For sure he’ll have something for you.”
“That’s impossible. He doesn’t even know my birthday; He doesn’t care about me.”
“Don’t say that, I’m sure he’ll prepare something.”
