Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around! novel Chapter 171

Sophia rubbed her slightly aching head, then got out of bed. She shuffled her slippers on and covered her upper body as she walked over to open the door.

Nicole stood at the door with a pale look on her face. After looking at her up and down several times and was sure that she was okay, Nicole finally breathed a sigh of relief. She said, "You scared me to death. What took you so long to open the door?"

"I was too tired and slept a bit more. Sorry for making you worried, Nicole," Sophia said, tugging at her lips.

Nicole glanced at her bare upper body and frowned. She handed her a new patient blouse, then pushed her into the ward. "Go in and change your clothes."

Sophia hummed a response and was about to turn around and walk in when the door of the ward across their room clicked open. Charles appeared at the door clad in a patient’s attire.

Maybe it was because of his tall figure, or maybe it was because of his ridiculously handsome face, but he still managed to carry a sense of nobility with him even while wearing the white and blue striped patient's attire.

Their eyes met. One of them looked enigmatic with eyes that seemed like an endless abyss; another was frowning with eyes overflowing with hatred and disgust.

"What’s..." Seeing that she had been looking outside for a long time, Nicole followed her line of sight and turned her head to look in the opposite direction as well. When she saw who the person standing on the opposite side was, her voice was cut off abruptly as she swallowed the word 'wrong' back in.

"Come in, Nicole." Sophia pulled Nicole in, then walked to the door, and slammed the door shut.

Nicole stood behind her, opening and closing her mouth several times. She said, "Mr. Harris is hospitalized because..."

"I'm not interested to know why he’s hospitalized." Sophia cut her off straight away and put on her patient blouse.

Nicole breathed a sigh of relief after hearing what she said. She thought Soph was angry because she knew that Sterling had stabbed Charles.

"By the way, Soph, what kind of misunderstanding were you talking to Mr. Harris about yesterday if not the car incident?” Nicole asked.

Sophia paused and replied succinctly: "... He misunderstood me for having an affair with William, thinking that I had cheated on him. That's why he has been treating me this way for the last two years."

“A misunderstanding?" Nicole asked.

Sophia's voice was faint, "Yeah."

"What’s next?" Nicole looked at her and weighed her words carefully. "The two of you are… considered to have cleared the air?"

Crash!

Sophia accidentally hit the teacup on the table and it fell to the ground, shattering into several pieces.

"Cleared the air?!" Sophia snickered, the scar at the end of her brows stained with a tinge of ruthlessness. "You must be joking, right, Nicole?

"I have lived a life of pure misery for the past two years and almost spent the rest of my life in Dream Club. How can I possibly bury the hatchet?!"

After all the suffering and torture she went through in the last two years, she would never forgive him even if he knelt on the ground and apologized to her, let alone after hearing the two breezy words “I’m sorry” that came out of his mouth!

She would hate him!

She would keep hating him for the rest of her life!

If it was not for him, her life would not have turned out this way!

"Soph, you..." Nicole had never seen Sophia behaving like this and was momentarily stumped.

Sophia took a deep breath and tried her best to suppress the surging emotions in her heart. She said flatly, "I’m sorry, I must have frightened you, Nicole."

"It's okay." Nicole hesitated before asking, "What are you planning to do now that the two of you know that this is just a misunderstanding? Are you going to take your revenge? Or what?"
