Get you in my arms

Chapter 20 Explanation. Apology. Farewell

"Sophia, how about moving to my place?"

"We haven't agreed yet." she choked up. They had agreed at the beginning that they would protect each other and keep their first time at their wedding night, but she didn't expect he still... Although she knew that John had been cheated, she still felt wronged. "It's far from my company. Let's talk about it after I get my driving license." She found an excuse randomly. After all, she had to pay off his debt first.

"Then wait a little longer. But you are not allowed to leave tonight." Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

At this moment, the doorbell rang. Having no time to answer it, John hoped that the visitor would ring a few times and then leave. However, the doorbell kept ringing.

"Damn it." He cursed, "wait for me. I'll be back soon."

Looking out of the peephole, he saw his mother and Ella, "damn it!" He frowned and sighed helplessly. He had no choice but to let her hide herself for a while. She picked up the clothes and hid them in the closet.

"John, what are you doing? Why do you take so long?" The moment Mrs. Xu came in, he looked around, fearing that his son would hide a girl.

"Mom, I'm sleeping. What are you doing here at this late hour?" John said discontentedly. What he was most annoyed about was that Ella came with him.

"Ella, I have something to tell you." Smiling, Mrs. Xu held her in her arms, as if she were a fragile object.

"I was drunk that day, so I didn't know anything. I don't know what to say." John said impatiently.

"John, I'm pregnant!" Ella put a list in front of him.

"No way!" He had a heart attack.

"Ouch!" she cried out as if her heart had been punched hard.

"You must be kidding me. The result is clearly positive. I am expecting to have a grandson." Mrs. Xu grinned, totally ignoring that her son shaped face was twisting. He kept looking at the wardrobe. Maybe Sophia was so sad. How should he face her now? He scratched his head in distress, and suddenly grasped the shoulder of Ella, "You have an abortion! Abortion!" He was almost shouting, which scared her out of her wits. She hastily turned to help.

"John, what are you talking about? Let go of her!" Mrs. Xu pulled her son away and said, "I've already proposed in Ella's family. You'll get engaged to you this week and hold your wedding at the end of next month!"

These words were like a bullet hitting Sophia's heart, and she suddenly had a kind of despair and fear that she had never experienced before. 'God, are you crazy? Why do you want to make Ella pregnant? Why do you always torture us instead of giving them good days?' thought she. Both John and Sophia felt the same way, so he didn't know what to do at the moment. "Mom, can you stop forcing me?" he asked

"John, you have done it yourself. Now you have to admit it. She must give birth to the baby. You must marry her." Mrs. Xu said stubbornly, leaving no chance for her son to negotiate.

John sat on the sofa in a fret. He covered his head with his hands and said nothing. There was a triumphant look in Ella's eyes. Ever since she was young, she had always been able to get what she wanted, and now she also got what she wanted.

After they left, Sophia opened the door of her cabinet and walked out. John ran to her and gave her a big hug. "What should I do now, Sophia? What should I do?" He felt at a loss and his mind was in a mess.

Without moving a muscle, she was too weak to utter a word.

Time passed slowly in the deathly stillness.

There was a trace of decisiveness in Sophia's eyes. She had already thought of a countermeasure. She was naturally calm in the face of danger.

'God, since you want me to break up with John so cruelly, I'll take the risk, '.

"John, do you love me?" She asked in a low voice.

"Love, Sophia, I love you, of course."

"Well, let's leave Q City. When we go abroad, we can leave everything behind. When we get married and have our children and we are happy."

"Leave?" "But we have to start from scratch. It's really hard for us to save money to buy house and car." said viola

"John, you are a top student in Columbia University. With ability, you can surely find a good job. You don't need to depend on X Group. I graduated from a domestic well-known university. With good English, it is not difficult to find a common job. As long as we work together, we can definitely have a good job." She said firmly and stubbornly.

"Then what about Ella? Will she give up? She is pregnant! " With an indecisive look, John buried her head in Sophia's chest.

"She couldn't find us, so she would naturally deal with the child. If she insisted on giving birth to the child, we could pick up the child and raise him when we came back."

"But..." John was still lingering.

"John!" Sophia raised her voice and said in a sharp tone: "do you have feelings for her? Are you reluctant to leave her?"

"No, i I'm just worried about my parents. Please give me some time to think about it. " John sighed in a fret.

"John." "I will have many children for you. Your parents will be happy."

John nodded and said nothing. At that night, Sophia didn't leave and they both stayed up late and watched TV the whole night.

The next day, when Sophia was about to leave, she was embraced by John. He finally decided that disappearing for a while might be the only solution.

As soon as she came back, Sophia explained, apologized and said goodbye to Lucas.

"I'm sorry. I still owe you for several months. I'll pay you back when I come back."

He trembled slightly. His mouth was like a lemon, extremely sour from the tip of the tongue to the bottom of the heart. At this moment, he had an impulse to hold her in his arms, to tell her that there was more than one person in the world who was willing to support her, and that there was another person who was willing to support her. He really wanted to ask her to stay and give him a chance to compete with John. Who said that it was destined to be born in the same delivery room as his in the same month as she was in this year? If he was not destined to meet her, how could he let this happen?

However, he controlled himself in the end. He was so depressed that his handsome face was distorted. "Have you really thought it through?" Thousands of words turned into a simple sentence.

She nodded, and her expression was firm. "We must do our last efforts for our love!"

"Where are you going?" His heart was twitching.

"We can find a place to hide, turn off the Weibo, and change our QQ account. After getting the visa, we can go out." She had made a plan.

"I have a villa in S City. You can go there first. I will arrange a private plane to send you there, so that no one can find you. By then, I will arrange for you to go abroad."

"Lucas..." She looked at him gratefully and didn't know what to say. He pulled his stiff muscles and squeezed a smile with difficulty. "You don't need to thank me. After all, I'm your boss." But he didn't say it out in his heart, 'as long as you are happy, it's the best for me.'.
