The Girl He Craves

Sophie’s pov

“Oh my gosh Mr. Harrighton, I am so sorry,” I rushed out and grabbed my napkin, and got up to walk over to Aiden and Ashton so I can wipe his hands.

Aiden looked like he was fighting hard to not laugh while Ashton on the other hand giggled loudly.

The chair makes a sharp noise when Sergio rises to his feet and pushes it back. His face is tight with irritation and he looks ready to scowl at Ashton but decided against it and scowled at me instead.

“You must not have trained him properly,” Sergio snaps, taking the napkin he just wiped with his mouth, to now wipe his expensive suit and face.

I stopped wiping Ash’s hands and froze. Sergio could say anything about me and to my face but I refuse to make him speak ill like that about Ashton.

Straightening my spine I looked at the disgruntled man.” My son is not a dog. He can’t be ‘trained.’

Sergio is surprised by my words and he isn’t the only one. Aiden is looking at me with a stunned expression but then a proud smile emerged on his face, making me feel a bit giddy that I made him proud.

Sergio whose face twisted with displeasure, dropped the napkin on the table messily and scowled at me. “It seems I’m not in the mood for breakfast anymore. I’ll see myself out.”

Fixing his tie, he looked at Ashton and said. “I’ll see you some other time, hopefully then you’d have more manners. As for you Aiden, I’ll speak to you soon.”

He doesn’t wait for a response, just walks away. When he closes the door behind him with a slight bang, I looked at Aiden horrified by what just happened.

Had I screwed up everything?

I’m so sorry. About the breakfast and everything else afterward. “I
