Get you in my arms

Chapter 177 It's A Pity (Part Three)

Sophia pinched her face, pretending to be angry. "Don't talk nonsense. Be careful of your spanking. John and I are good friends, understand?"

"Of course I know." She pouted her lips and said, "but he is still ex-boyfriend and childhood sweetheart."

John walked to her and touched her head, "are you worried that I will take your mother away from your daddy?"

"I don't care. They are married." With her big blue eyes blinked twice, she said, "I'm more worried about whether you will marry my aunt. If you don't marry her, I won't be able to live as a flower boy."

It looks like this naughty girl is forcing me to get married. He thought. In fact, he had considered about it too. If he had to marry someone, Ellie would be the best. On the one hand, he liked her but had no feelings for her. On the other hand, as a member of Mo family, he didn't need to find a lot of excuses to meet her later.

He scraped Sara's nose and said, "don't worry. I've already proposed to your aunt."

"That's great!" Sara was so happy that she clapped her hands, and then took John out of the kitchen. She wanted to give him advice on making the most romantic proposal to Auntie. However, before they had the result, Sophia had already prepared a wonderful birthday party.

She took out the cake, lit the candles and sang the birthday song together. John made a simple wish of celebrating his birthday. He only hoped that she could accompany him to spend the festival on each year.

She cut the cake and was about to start it when the doorbell rang. Sara looked out from the cat's eye and found it was Ellie.

When she walked into the house, she saw that there were only two people, John and Sophia by the round table. She looked a bit unnatural. Then she glanced at the birthday cake in the middle and was slightly surprised. "Who is going to celebrate birthday today?" she asked.

"John." Sara tilted her head and looked at her. With puzzlement in her eyes, she asked, "aunt, you are John's girlfriend. Why don't you remember his birthday?" Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

"I remember it's next Tuesday." Ellie pouted. She even prepared a gift for the birthday party.

"The second lunar New Year's birthday is coming. Today is his lunar New Year's birthday." Sara corrected her seriously.

Ellie pinched her face with a sullen face. "You naughty girl. I'm not his childhood sweetheart. How could I know so clearly!"

Noticing the displeasure on her face, Sophia knew that she was jealous. So she walked up to her, took her hand and sat down beside John. "Talk about you and you will come soon. My childhood sweetheart just asked me how to propose to my sister-in-law," said Sophia.

Hearing the word "proposal", Ellie's gloomy face immediately disappeared, and she flushed. Sophia smiled, cutting a piece of cake to her, and said: "now eat something. After lunch, someone has to go away. We need to discuss something else."

With a straight face, Ellie glared at Sophia, but the dimples on her cheeks couldn't help but reveal the secret.

John ate the cake quietly and felt a little depressed. The presence of Ellie had spoiled the mood. All he wanted to do today was to spend time with Sophia.

After dinner, Sophia left with Sara. She didn't want to be taken as trouble by her sister-in-law.

After they left, John was even more depressed. He asked, "Ellie, can you call me first when you come here later?" He sounded somewhat annoyed.

Hearing that, Ellie's warm heart froze all of a sudden. She lowered her eyes dejectedly, while her fine eyelashes casting two disappointed shadows on her eyes. She said, "do you think I am disturbing you?"

Looking at Eille's tearful face and about to cry, John didn't have the heart to scold her any longer, so he just softened the atmosphere. He sat down and sighed, "I was going to ask Sophia and Sara to give me an idea. But when you came, they felt embarrassed to disturb us, so they left. They haven't come up with an idea yet."

Ellie's eyes lit up again. She looked at him with excitement, ecstasy and admiration. She was so happy. In fact, he didn't need to think about anything, even without flowers, romance or even a ring. As long as he asked, she would nod immediately.

"John, don't bother. I am not picky girl."

John put her arms around shoulders of Ellie and said, "anyway, I want to marry the daughter of the Mo family. How could I be so careless?"

Ellie's heart was already fluttering with the wind, "well, it's up to you. I'll listen to you." After that, she buried her head into the arms of John. Oh, my God, she was so happy.

As soon as Sophia walked out of the apartment, she got a call from Celina. She was invited to have afternoon tea with her.

So she asked Mary to turn and go straight to the house of Celina.

Celina had ordered May to prepare some desserts for them.

"Miss Celina, what brings you here to have afternoon tea with me today?" Sophia smiled.

"I don't have many friends here except you," Celina shrugged and invited her and her to sit on the sofa.

The black and white strip strip Sophia saw on the sofa was very familiar to her. She picked it up and looked at it carefully. Celina hastily snatched it from beck and looked very nervous. "It's my boyfriend. He left it on the bedside. I put it on the sofa when I saw him and reminded him to take it away. But he still forgot it," she explained. After she finished speaking, she spread out the pocket towel on her legs, and slowly folded it up.

Now, she recognized it. She remembered that it was exactly the same as Lucas's. No wonder it looked familiar to her. Most of Lucas's stuff were customized and it could hardly be the same.

Sophia's heart trembled. What a coincidence?

Without a blink, Celina seemed to be observing something. But Sophia controlled herself very well, and her expression was as calm as water, without showing any emotions.

With a little disappointment in her heart, Celina turned to Sara. "Did you have a good time going to sea with your daddy?"

Sara nodded.

Celina smiled gently. "Next time, let's hang out together, okay?"

Sara didn't say anything and just stared at her. She didn't want any irrelevant outsider to come.

"Celina is joking with you. If she has time, she will definitely go with her boyfriend."

Sara sighed, deliberately picking up a pocket towel and swinging it in her hand. "I want to, but unfortunately, he is a busy man. Every time he comes and goes in a hurry, he doesn't have much time to accompany me."
