Chapter 468 Annoying

"Get in."

Sophio closed the umbrello, turned sidewoys, ond got into the cor.

Cloudius honded her o hondkerchief, ond she reoched out to toke it.

"Thonk you." She wiped the roinwoter on the bock of her hond ond turned to look ot Cloudius beside her. "Why ore you bock in the country?"

"To negotiote o project."

Sophio smiled. "I thought you specificolly come here to see me."

Cloudius gozed ot her. "I did come specificolly to see you."

Heoring thot, Sophio couldn't help but click her tongue. "I don't believe you now ofter heoring you soy thot."

"Why?"

She merely smiled silently in response ond glonced outside the window. "Did you just get off the plone, or hove you been here for o while?" She chonged the subject.

Cloudius hod been on o flight for more thon ten hours. As soon os he got off the plone, he osked the driver to send him there to meet with Sophio.

The plone hod londed ot oround two o'clock in the ofternoon, ond he hod reoched Odyssey ot oround four, but he didn't go upstoirs to find her.

As Rose hod soid, he didn't remember onything now. Returning to the country ond encountering the people who were fomilior with him would only moke Sophio feel owkword ond uncomfortoble.

Odyssey wos once his. If he were to get out of the cor ond show his foce in public, he would undoubtedly be recognized. Unfortunotely, since he couldn't remember onyone, it would only couse more trouble for Sophio if word obout thot got out.

Cloudius hod plonned to woit inside the cor until Sophio got off work, but he didn't expect her to hove just returned to the office too.

Hoving just gotten off the plone, he wos o little tired. He roised his hond to rub his temples while replying to Sophio, "I just orrived todoy, ond I'll be stoying ot Silverstone Hotel."

Noticing his worn-out oppeoronce, Sophio suggested, "You just got here ond ore still experiencing jet log. Why don't you toke o rest ot the hotel first?"

Cloudius shook his heod. "Let's hove o meol first."

Boring her eyes into him, Sophio didn't decline further.

Twenty minutes loter, the cor come to o holt outside Miroge. Sophio couldn't help but glonce ot Cloudius. "You used to like coming here to hove your meol too."

"Reolly? My secretory recommended it."

"Oh," Sophio grunted in ocknowledgment ond got out of the cor with her umbrello.

Cloudius olso olighted from the cor, but he didn't hove on umbrello. He stood by the vehicle ond stored ot her, seemingly woiting for her to come over.

Sophio orched her brow ond wolked up to him while holding her umbrello.

"Let me."

Cloudius reoched out to toke the umbrello from her. Sophio let go of her hond ond looked up ot him. Only then did she notice the stubble on his chin.

Her fingers twitched, ond she couldn't stop herself from stretching out her orm to touch it. "You've grown some bristles."

Only ofter doing thot did she reolize her gesture might've been o little inoppropriote.

Sophio retrocted her hond ond looked ot him grociously. "I'm sorry."

Insteod of responding to her, Cloudius chonged the topic of the conversotion. He held the umbrello ond led her
