Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around! novel Chapter 286

Sophia figured that Master Harris would come over to find out about the truth but did not expect him to come so soon.

Master Harris brought Ken into the ward and looked Sophia up and down with a sullen look on his face, saying sarcastically, "It didn’t take long for you to almost miscarry, huh? Could it be such a coincidence?"

"You know that Leah and I are incompatible with each other just like fire and water. I can’t be colluding with her and Mr. Jones to deceive you, can I?" Sophia carefully lifted the collar of her patient’s gown when Master Harris came in.

A couple is advised not to sleep together in the first three months of pregnancy. Master Harris would get suspicious if he saw the hickeys on her neck.

Master Harris harrumphed heavily; his expression eased up slightly.

"When Sophia arrived at the hospital after suffering a relapse, she even went through a medical procedure. If you don't believe it, you can go ahead and ask the surgeon." Charles said, "We can't possibly do anything under your nose, right?"

Sophia was lying on the bed. She might seem relaxed but every cell in her body was taut and her nerves were on edge.

"Did I give you permission to speak?!" Master Harris glared at Charles with frosty eyes.

"I was just telling the truth." Charles said, "Leah isn’t someone who will give up easily. Besides, the appliance market is just like a big piece of cake that’s placed right in front of her eyes. She will never let me be with Sophia, that’s why she tried to lay a finger on our child...."

Master Harris cut him off harshly. "Shut up!!!"

Charles looked down and said no more.

"Now you and everyone else think that I’m about to die that’s why you’re riding roughshod over me and even have the cheek to talk back to me now, huh?!" Master Harris's face was livid.

Charles lowered his head. "I wouldn’t dare."

"You wouldn’t dare?" Master Harris shifted his gaze to Sophia and said coldly, "If you’re brave enough to threaten me with a knife for a silly little girl, then is there anything out there that you dare not do?"

Charles said at an appropriate pace, "I was left with no choice at that time. I was worried that you would be upset after learning that you could have caused Sophia to miscarry, yet had no time to get into the details, that was why I was left with no choice but to do so."

"Hah!" Master Harris sneered, then covered his mouth and let out a cough.

Seeing this, Ken immediately took out a handkerchief and handed it to him. He took the handkerchief, wiped the corners of his mouth whilst covering it with his hand, then clenched the handkerchief in his hand.

Master Harris was about to say something when Charles' phone started ringing. It was a call from the company.

"I’m sorry, I have to take this. This is from the company." Charles explained succinctly and answered.

Master Harris frowned and sat on a chair. Ken walked over immediately and poured some water into a paper cup for him.

"Mm. I got it. I'll be there right away." Charles hung up the call and said to Master Harris with a smile hanging on the corner of his lips. "The police are done with the checks. They said that there’s nothing wrong on my side."

There was a flash of astonishment on Master Harris' face. Immediately after that, darkness started flashing over his face.

"I'm going to the company to finish up the handover procedure. I’ll leave Sophia under your care." Charles said, "Leah is also in the hospital. In the case of an accidental miscarriage, Sophia and I are still young, so we can easily conceive again, but you may not necessarily get to live until then."

Master Harris snarled out, "Are you threatening me?!"

"I’m just telling the truth." Charles walked to the bed and planted a kiss on Sophia's forehead, saying gently, "Be good. I'm going to the company to handle some things now. I'll come back to accompany you at night."
