Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around! novel Chapter 16

Charles’ manner was imposing. It was as if his eyes could see through everything.

Panic flashed across Leah’s eyes. She backed away oddly and said softly, “Yeah. Sophia said as long as my brother breaks up with Audrey, she promised to stay with him.”

Charles chuckled coldly. His eyes were extremely icy.

He knew someone’s inherent quality would not change in just two years.

“Charles,” Leah felt horrible when she thought about what she saw when she saw it. “Sophia’s relationship with my brother is unclear and she still wanted to get close to you. She’s so unrestrained. I don’t know whether she’s sick or not. You should keep your distance from her.”

The word ‘unrestrained’ caused Charles’ eyes to become even colder. “Do you think it’s your business who I should keep my distance with?”

Leah’s eyes turned red. “Charles, I’m just concerned about you. There are no ulterior motives.”

Tears welled up in her eyes and they made her look extremely alluring.

Charles looked at her coldly. He did not say anything.

“Charles, I’m just doing this for your own good,” she said helplessly and bit her lip.

“I know what you’re after better than anyone else.” Charles walked past her and there was disgust in his eyes. “Don’t use those cheap tricks on me.”

In that instant, Leah’s face turned pale. She wanted to say something but he had already left.

She gripped her cane and looked at her limp left leg. There was a sinister look in her pained and pretty face. “Charles, why can’t you see everything that I’ve done for you?”

…

Sophia went back to her dorm. She leaned against the door. Her eyes were lifeless.

After a while, it was as if she remembered something. She started wiping her bleeding lips furiously.

While she was doing that, tears rolled down her cheeks and went into her mouth along with her blood. It was bitter and there was also a hint of the metallic taste of blood.

She sat on the floor lifelessly for more than ten minutes before dragging her exhausted body into bed.

She did not have time to weep. She needed to get up and start work in about six hours.

However, this night was destined to be chaotic.
