Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around! novel Chapter 366

A hundred thoughts filled Sophia’s mind, and just as she was about to pick up the phone, the ringing stopped.

Sophia cast a glance at the bathroom. Judging from the reflection she saw through the glass, it seemed that he needed a while longer.

She should have enough time to snoop around on his phone now. Although he was a meticulous man, there was still a chance that he might have kept the chat records between him and the netizen who indirectly prompted her mother’s suicide.

If she did not find anything, at least she would have enough to convince herself that he had nothing to do with her mother’s suicide.

Sophia licked her lips and bent over to retrieve his phone.

Just as she was about to grab it, the sound of water running in the bathroom suddenly stopped.

Her heart sank as she withdrew her hand and straightened her back. Her heart was pounding against her chest as she glanced at the bathroom.

There was no sign of Charles. After a short moment, the water continued running again.

The back of her hands was beaded with sweat now. She stared a little longer, and when she finally confirmed that he was not coming out anytime soon, she bent over and took his phone.

However, just as her hand almost touched the phone, she shrunk again.

He had left his phone at such a conspicuous spot when he went to shower. Clearly, he was not hiding anything from her… Suddenly, she did not have the urge to check his phone anymore.

Right then, his phone began ringing once again.

Thinking that it was someone from the office calling Charles, Sophia answered the call without even checking the caller ID. “I’m sorry but Charles is in the shower now. You can let me know if there’s any message you want me to pass along or if it’s something important, I can…”

“Soph, it’s me!” Sterling’s enthusiastic voice sounded from the other end of the phone.

Soph was speechless.

She removed the phone from her ear and glanced at the phone number. Sure enough, it was her brother’s number.

Her brother and Charles never saw eye to eye though, so why did Ster suddenly call Charles and sounded so happy too?

“Soph? Can you hear me?”

Ster’s voice sounded again, and Sophia came around. “Yeah, I’m here.”

Ster seemed to be in an unusually good mood and the excitement in his voice showed. “I’m looking for Harris, can you pass him the phone?”

“He’s in the shower now,” Sophia said.

Sterling only raised his voice, “Both of you already have a child together, for goodness sake, what’s wrong with seeing him naked? Hurry up and bring him the phone. I have something important to tell him!”

At the end of the sentence, he broke out into peals of laughter. He sounded just like a devil.

Sophia, “...”

Was her brother possessed by some spirit? He was always looking for a fight whenever he saw Charles, so what was with the sudden change of mood?

However, Sterling kept pestering her on the phone, so she had no other choice but to do as he asked. She got up begrudgingly and walked toward the bathroom. Just as she was halfway there, the bathroom door opened and Charles sauntered out.

He was wearing a dark blue bathrobe, and droplets of water dripped from his wet hair to the floor. He had left his bathrobe loose, so she could see the water dripping down his chest, streaming all the way down his taut muscles.

The entire image of him screamed sexy and sensual.

Sophia was stunned for a moment when she saw him and quickly averted her gaze as she handed him his phone. “My brother is on the phone, he says he has something important to tell you.”

Charles gestured his hands at her, indicating that he was unable to take it as his hands were wet. However, she misunderstood him and instead, grabbed the towel from him and helped wipe his hands dry. Then, she handed him the phone and stood on her tippy toes to help dry his hair.

As their skin pressed against each other, she could sense the heat radiating from his body through her pajamas, which made her feel hot and tingly inside.
