CHAPTER 21: SHE'S FIRED

CHAPTER 21After what felt like forever, Chris returned with a brown bag filled with food. He entered the mansion and made his way to their room.Sophia was fast asleep, the blanket thrown aside. Chris couldn't help but smile to himself while staring at her sleeping figure. He bent down and tapped her cheeks softly, trying to wake her up. She ignored him and turned to the other side. Chris was amused at first, but went ahead and tapped her lightly once more.“Sophia. Sophia,” he called softly. She grumbled. “Come on, Kira. Can we not do—”Sophia paused once her gaze landed on Chris. Then she recalled that she wasn't roommates with Kira anymore.

Karlix stopped her before she could. She turned to look at him, confused by his actions. “Here. Take this.” he reached for an umbrella in the back seat and handed it to her.She blinked, a bit skeptical. “Um…I don’t think I can take—”“I can't have you catching a cold,” he stated sternly. “You need it. So, take it.”She glanced at the umbrella before returning her gaze to his. She took it from him, forcing a smile. “Thank you,” she mumbled. She stepped out of the car and opened the umbrella.
