Chapter 227 So Near And Yet So Far

After Victor left Karl and Grace's house, he didn't want to go back to work, so he went back to his own home directly. Seeing him, Web and Zelda knew that he was in a bad mood. They didn't say much but do their job well.

When Victor went upstairs, the bedroom became empty since all Sophia's things didn't exist. It was like that his heart had been empty too!

Sitting on the edge of the bed, Victor gently rubbed the place which Sophia had spelt on. There still had Sophia's smell. But Sophia had disappeared!

Victor suddenly thought of the defiant look in Sophia's eyes after the love making last night. It turned out that she had already made up her mind to move out and leave him! But he didn't realize it at all. He just let her go!

Then Victor took out his phone and dialed Sophia's number again. Just as he had expected, the cold female voice said, "Sorry, the subscriber you dialed is power off. Please redial it later." Victor threw his phone on the bed irritably. The phone rolled a few times and then stopped by the bedside.

Victor took off his suit jacket. When he recalled the scene that she got his suit jacket with a smiling face and hung it carefully for him, he felt heartbroken. He threw it aside irritably and loosened the tie in his hand. Leaning against the head of the bed, he muttered, "Sophia. How long are you going to hide from me? All your life? How could you... Leave me alone! "

At dusk, it began to rain. There were few raindrops this year in S City during the rainy season. And in the fall, it seldom rained. It had been a cloudy day and the rain finally came! It was rare to see such a heavy rain in S City at this season.

Victor walked to the balcony. Raindrops were falling and smashing the window and formed circles of water which followed from the glass. Now the days were short, and the weather was cloudy. So it was already dark outside. Everything outside the window was hazy in the rain. In the dim room, Victor could only vaguely see the outline of all the furniture.

The wind and rain outside the window were very noisy, but the world inside the window was extremely quiet. In such a quiet environment, Victor missed Sophia more. Sophia. Where are you now? Did you get wet in the rain? How worried I was when you were not by my side? With that on his mind, Victor took a cigarette and lit it up.

At the same time, Sophia was standing beside the bed, listening to the rain outside the window. It was storming along with the rustling sound of leaves. In such a heavy rain, those broken leaves on the branches would probably be into the dusty tomorrow morning. A beam of light flashed through the sky, followed by a loud thunder. Then Sophia closed the curtain and walked away from the window.

At that moment, the door was opened. It was Rita. Rita shook off the water from the umbrella and shook the plastic bag in her hand. "Time to eat! It's

er one night?

"Mr. Victor, I have prepared the files you need for the meeting and put them on your desk." Sophia smiled politely and distantly with a normal tone.

"Sophia. You..." At this moment, Victor's heart was so painful that he could hardly speak. He would rather Sophia get angry with him than be treated so coldly.

"Is there anything you want me to do, Mr. Victor?" Sophia lifted her head slowly, and she met Victor eyes without any emotion.

"Sophia. What do you want from me? You could beat me or scold me! I beg you not to do this to me! " Victor's eyes looked into Sophia's eyes with sadness. His hands was clenched into a fist.

"Mr. Victor, you are wrong. You are my boss. What can I do to you?" Victor lifted her from the chair and forced her to the wall before she finished her sentence. Victor slowly bent over and wanted to kiss Sophia.

Sophia blocked his way. She turned her head and said, "Mr. Victor, don't... Don't do like that! Please let me go. "

Holding her shoulders, Victor asked in a low voice, "What if I say no? What can you do? "

Sophia kept her head down and whispered, "Then I can only resign and go to a place where you can't find me!"

"What? You are going to resign! Sophia! You're so cruel! " With a bitter smile, Victor let go of Sophia and went back to his desk to check the files that were prepared by Sophia. The documents were well prepared. She behaved like a perfect secretary. She finished her work perfectly and didn't go out of line at all.

Sitting in his seat, Victor felt uncomfortable when he looked at Sophia. His office was not so big. It was so close to Sophia's that the distance between him and Sophia was only a few meters. But now in Victor's eyes, it seemed to be the furthest distance in the world, as far as the horizon.

"Are you tired, Mr. Victor? Let me make you a cup of coffee." Sophia walked to Victor's desk and took his glass, then went out.
