Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around! novel Chapter 43

“Sophia is so lucky to have a friend like you,” Leah smiled and said. She turned her wheelchair to face Charles. “Charles, I know you’re brooding over the fact that Sophia broke my leg, but I don’t blame her. Can we let her follow us to the hospital?”

Charles was facing the light. Therefore, Leah could not see his face.

“Charles, just say yes. With you by my side, she wouldn’t dare hurt me.” There was a hint of feminine charm to Leah’s words.

Sophia chuckled coldly in her heart. Leah was trying to take it upon herself to separate Charles and her. Even if he had agreed to let her go with them earlier, he would be against the idea of it now.

She was ready to be rejected when Charles said, “Push Leah out.”

The complacency in Leah’s eyes disappeared. She was stunned. This time, she forced a smile. “Be careful. Don’t be as clumsy as last time. You almost made me fall which made my brother misunderstand you.”

Her voice was not soft. Rather than her words being directed at Sophia, it sounded more like she was speaking to Charles and William.

Nevertheless, Charles only left his reflection with her. Things did not go as she had planned.

“If you know your place, you won’t try to do anything to Leah,” William walked toward Sophia and warned her after bending down.

Megan wanted to stand up for Sophia, but when she saw the expressionless William and the pitiful Leah, she ended up falling silent. She felt extremely uneasy.

Sophia tugged at the corner of her lips. “I only wanted to prove myself.”

They said she had attempted murder and would kill Leah. They said she was cruel and would torture Leah several times. Hence, when they scolded her, she did not feel wronged.

“What are you trying to do now?” William asked her with a low voice. It sounded like he was speaking from his throat.

“Mr. Jones, don’t worry.” Sophia backed away slightly and distanced herself from him. “Do you think I’d dare to do anything to Miss Jones when you and Mr. Harris are here?”

“It’s good that you’re aware of that.” When William saw her distancing herself from him, he felt bad. However, he frowned and suppressed the weird emotion in his heart.

He would not fall in love with a woman who had intentions of killing his little sister.

A hint of sarcasm flashed across Sophia’s eyes. “If you’re still worried, just follow your sister for the next 24 hours in case an opportunity for me to harm her presents itself.”

William peered at her coldly and walked toward Leah. He said something after leaning down and strode away.

“Sophia, I…” Megan secretly took a look at Leah. She spoke with a flustered face.

Sophia interrupted her and said, “You can go back first if you have something to take care of. I’m going to attend my physical therapy with Miss Jones.”

Megan did not want to offend Leah because of Sophia. It was understandable. After all, even her own family had disowned her.

“I’m sorry!” Megan smiled in embarrassment and reached out her hand. “You have to push the wheelchair, so it’s inconvenient for you to take these. Let me bring them back for you.”

“Thanks.” Sophia passed the shopping bags to her.

On one side, Leah sighed lightly. She said, “You two have a really close relationship. Sophia, this girl is so good to you. Don’t do what you did to me to her.”

Megan took the shopping bags from her and looked at her in confusion.

“It’s nothing. Back then, Sophia and I were best friends. In the end… Let’s not talk about this tragedy.” Leah looked at her leg and smiled bitterly.

Megan smiled awkwardly. She looked at Sophia and then at Leah. Her face had an expression of embarrassment on it, and she could not put a finger on her emotions.

“Don’t let Mr. Harris wait too long. Megan, we’re going now.” Sophia’s face was indifferent. Her knuckles turned white from clenching the wheelchair too tightly.
