Mr billionaire's regret chasing his irresistible wife by Gabby Emmanuel

I'm not going with you.

(ARIELLE'S POV)

Jared and I paused, exchanging surprised glances.

"What's that sound?" I asked, fear now crawling into my features.

"I don't know-" Jared started to say, but paused like he recalled something. And then he was sprinting into the house, yelling "Sofia!"

I was stunned for a moment, but followed suit. We ran until we got to the sitting room, panting, and there was Sofia, lazily draped on the couch, watching a movie.

"Have you lost it, Sofia?" I bellowed before I could stop myself. "What was the screaming for?"

She didn't utter a word, instead she sized me up before returning her gaze to the TV. She didn't acknowledge Jared's presence too, I guess she was still mad at him for turning her down in the morning.

"Sofia, you're being spoken to." Jared began, his voice bearing a tinge of irritation. "Why will you scream that loudly?"

Sofia finally looked at Jared, her gaze scornful. "And what does it matter to you?"

"You made us fear for your safety -Arielle and I," Jared responded, pointing to himself and I.

Sofia scoffed. "Oh spare me that forced concern. You know, I've finally come to the realization that you don't care for me as you claim, despite knowing each other for twenty years. You're probably being nice to me because of my mother's good to your mother in the past -" "Sofia, don't speak like that -" Jared said, his voice losing its initial irritation.

"I will speak in what manner I deem fit, Jared. You are concerned about a scream, but didn't have the decency to grant my request of driving me to the hospital today," Sofia said.

I was right after all, she was still grieved about the event of the morning.

"I had an appointment, and you had my driver to drive you there. What difference would my presence make if I took you?" Jared defended.
