Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around! novel Chapter 312

Sophia’s expression instantly changed. “What do you mean?!”

Judging from how worked up she was and how her voice broke a little toward the end, it was obvious she was panicking.

“As I said earlier, I really don’t mean anything. Let’s just mind our own business from now on, shall we?” Leah said sincerely, “Sophia, you’re not suited to meddle in the company’s businesses, just like your brother. I think Uncle James made the right decision by not handing the company over to you.”

Sophia clenched her fists. “You spent almost three years incriminating me. Do you think Grandpa will believe you if you told him that I’m not pregnant?”

“Grandpa Harris might not believe me, but I can at least convince him to bring you to another check-up at the hospital. Sophia, do you think you can get away with it one more time?” Leah said lightly.

Sophia gulped nervously and reached out to touch her hair. Then, she quietly rubbed her hand on her shirt.

“You don’t have to answer me in such a hurry, we’ve just started eating. It won’t be too late if you answer my question after we finish eating.” Leah opened the packaging for the chopsticks and placed it on top of Sophia’s plate before taking some enoki mushrooms.

Sophia remained quiet for a very long time as if she was silently making a tough decision.

Leah gave her a light smile and cooked herself some lettuce. She proceeded to eat it gracefully as she eyed Sophia in amusement.

“Let’s not talk about whether you can convince Grandfather. Even if you did convince him, I have Charles to protect me, so what can he possibly do?!” Sophia stood up and placed both hands on the table as she glared at Leah.

Leah dabbed the corner of her mouth with a napkin and asked, “Are you admitting that you’re not pregnant?”

Sophia paled upon hearing the words. Then, as if trying to cover it up, she said, “I didn’t lie to Grandpa, I really am pregnant. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to deceive Grandfather.”

“You know best whether you’re really pregnant or not,” Leah said slowly, “Sophia, don’t do anything stupid. You’re already Charles’ girlfriend and you’ll be able to marry into the Harris family any day now. That’s worth much more than 162 million, isn’t it?

“Besides, our company will make the payment to White Group in the future along with the applied interest rate as well as the penalty for breach of contract. Frankly, White Group won’t suffer a loss.”

Sophia’s mind seemed to wander off slightly as if she was contemplating her words.

“Come on, let’s eat. The soup’s very tasty.” Leah pushed the plate of pig hearts in front of Sophia.

Sophia had lowered her head moments ago, but she suddenly looked up at Leah. Her expression was calm and collected now. “Charles threatened Grandfather with a knife last time to protect me. I believe that he won’t just let me be if anything were to happen to me.”

“It’s two o’clock now, you still have ten hours to prepare the money. Otherwise, you’ll see news of Jones Group deliberately delaying payment to White Group as a personal attack to me in the early hours of the morning.” Sophia interrupted her unpleasantly and left right away with her purse.

As Leah stared at her figure that gradually disappeared from sight, the smile on her face slowly went away. It was replaced with a look of disdain.

When she got here earlier and listened to everything Sophia said, she had thought that Sophia finally got smarter.

However, it turned out that she was still an idiot!

How could someone like her be worthy of Charles?

Leah raised her glass of juice and took a sip. Even if Charles did not choose her, he should not settle for someone like Sophia.

She was currently the only woman who barely met the conditions to be good enough for Charles!

She took out her phone and contacted someone from Jones Group to prepare the payment. Then, she made a call to Grandpa Harris. “Grandpa Harris is that you… Oh, it’s nothing. I haven’t seen you in a long time, so I just miss…”

After leaving the restaurant, Sophia only managed to recollect herself after getting slightly further away. The anger and anxiousness in her face had disappeared as she returned to her usual calm self.
