Drenched in Love

Chapter 98: It’s Better To See Something You Shouldn't See

"Is she okay?"

Stephen asked with a frown as Doctor Joe packed his medicine box to leave.

Doctor Joe shook his head and Stephen's heart tightened, "Is it serious?"

Doctor Joe still shook his head, "Come on, although I am a general practitioner, I don’t know much

about menstrual cramps."

Looking at Sophia with a pale face lying on the bed, Doctor Joe gave his advice, "If you really care

about her, take her to a gynecologist who specializes in menstrual cramps. Menstrual cramps can be

serious or nothing. To put it in a less serious situation, it's just the cramp during the period; but to put it

in a serious situation, it's possible a sign to be infertile."

Doctor Joe gave Stephen a meaningful look, "You'd better take her to see a doctor."

Stephen did not say anything. Doctor Joe then stood in front of the bed and kept looking at him.

Stephen frowned, "Aren’t you leaving?"

Doctor Joe sighed helplessly and mocked, "Stephen, how come I not know you are such a jerk!"

When he sent Doctor Joe away, Sophia already woke up, but did not open her eyes. Looking at her

body curled up because of the pain, and her painful expression, and her pale face, Stephen only felt as

if a big stone had been pressed against his chest, which made him hard to breathe.

Stephen left with a cold face.

He wanted to go back to his bedroom, and only after he went out the room did he realize that Sophia

was now sleeping in his own bedroom.

Stephen stood outside for a while, pushed open the door of the next room where Jessie used to live

and walked in.

This night, Stephen didn’t sleep very tight, he always felt that there was something undone, but he had

no idea what it was.

Finally he felt a bit sleepy, and was about to fell into sleep, he began to dream again.

His dream was very chaotic, most of the images were the happy and joyful times when he and Jessie

were together.

In his dream, Jessie did not have an accident, he finally waited until she graduated, and proposed to

her romantically, and then they held a grand wedding. Jessie became the happiest woman in the world.

Suddenly his dream shifted to another scene where Jessie was being bullied, and he did his best to

save her, but there was still a man who was faster than him.

He made to rescue Jessie, but she was not happy and looked at him coldly. After leaving him, she met

another man, and held the roses from that man happily and shyly. His heart was about to break.

The scene shifted again, back to the wedding site, the priest finished officiating the wedding, smiling at

him and said, "Now, the groom, you may kiss your bride."

He unveiled the cover and still didn't know how to face Jessie, only then he found out that the bride

standing in front of him was not Jessie.

"Who are you?" He asked in dismay.

The bride who was dressed as if she was a fairy coming down to earth looked at him and smiled

joyously, "I am Sophia. I am the woman who will join hands with you for the rest of your life."

"Not you! The person I want to marry is not you!" He shook his head heavily and turned around to see

Jessie who was standing not far away with tears running down her face.

Jessie said, "Stephen, you said you would never fail me in your life! You now abandon me and want to

marry another woman!"

Jessie turned around and ran away, he was in a hurry to chase after her, but his arm was grabbed by

someone tightly, "Today is our wedding day, you can not leave."

The priest repeated the sentence he had just said, "the groom, you may now kiss your bride."

Before he could say anything, Sophia had already stood on tiptoe to kiss his lips, and his whole body

froze there.

Then, he woke up.

In the darkness of the night: he was sitting on the bed, his heart was beating very fast.

After calming down for a moment, Stephen opened the door and went out, then walked downstairs,

took out a beer from the refrigerator and took a gulp of the bear.

Leaning on the refrigerator, Stephen closed his eyes: this was the second time he had dreamed of this

dream. The first time he was on the plane.

Stephen turned around and took out another beer from the refrigerator and finish it. Only then did he go

upstairs.

As usual, he went upstairs, opened the door, went into the room, and closed the door. When he went to

the bed to go back to sleep, Stephen suddenly realized that there was someone in the bed.

He frowned and turned to leave when he heard Sophia moaned because of the pain.

With the slight light going through the window, he saw a small, poor girl lying on the bed with a pale

face. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Looking at this weak and powerless Sophia, Stephen’s heart became soft a little.

He went down stairs and asked Hannah to boil some water and put it into a hot-water bottle, then he

brought it to the upstairs.

When Doctor Joe left, he said that hotness can relieve the pain to some extent.

Stephen wrapped the hot-water bottle in a towel, lifted the quilt and placed it on Sophia's belly.

The hot-water bottle really worked, not long after it was put on, Sophia looked better and seemed to

relaxed.

Looking at her like this, Stephen took a relief.

After guarding Sophia in the bedroom for a while, Stephen got up and left, when he was closing the

door, Sophia turned over, her long white thighs were exposed, and the hot-water bottle fell to the floor.

Stephen frowned and walked in to pick up the hot-water bottle and put it on Sophia's belly, re-covering

her with the quilt. A few moments later, seeing that Sophia still wanted to turn over, Stephen frowned,

he then took off his shoes and lay down on the bed, holding Sophia in his arms along with the quilt.

When doing these things, Stephen didn't think too much at all. When he began to think and knew that

he should not be like that, he felt sleepy again, and quickly fell into sleep.

They all fell asleep, but Hannah couldn't sleep.

She looked at the clock, which showed it was two o’clock in the morning. And Stephen was still in the

room. Hannah knew something had changed already.

The next morning at eight o'clock, Sophia and Stephen had not yet woken up, Hannah also crooked on

the sofa asleep.

A black stretch Lincoln drove into the villa. When the Lincoln stopped, a noble woman of about fifty

years old, dressed in a famous brand dress, got off from the car.

The noblewoman took her handbag and elegantly walked into the villa. When she got in, she saw

Hannah was sleep on the sofa and coughed lightly.

Hannah woke up and immediately stood up straight when she saw the person in front of her, "Mrs.

Berry, what brings you here?"

The noblewoman smiled elegantly, "Stephen is busy and hasn't been back home for dinner for a long

time, so I have to come over to see him." The noblewoman looked upstairs, "Is Stephen here?"

Hannah's face was a little awkward, "Yes. Mr. Berry is upstairs and hasn't come down yet."

The noblewoman didn't notice her unusual, "I'll go upstairs to check him."

Hannah wanted to stop, but when she thought of the noblewoman's attitude toward Jessie, she

withdrew her hand.

Go and see. It was better to see something you shouldn't see, and then...

Hannah believed: five years ago, Mrs. Berry could not accept Jessie; and five years later, she would be

even less likely to accept Sophia.
