Unveiled: The Survivor's Triumph
Chapter 282
Chapter 282 Warm Interactions
Sophie shot a warning, "Hey, what do you guys want? Try anything funny, and I'll scream for help."
The thug just grinned, totally unfazed. "Relax, we don't want anything. Just wanna buy you a coffee."
Two guys moved in to grab her, following his lead.
Sophie took a couple of steps back, her voice shaky. "I'm not alone. My husband will be here any second."
They clearly didn't buy it and kept closing in on her.
"Honey."
Just when Sophie was freaking out, a familiar voice came from behind.
She spun around, almost relieved, and saw Richard standing a few feet away, hands in his pockets, looking all chill.
His "Honey" was like a lifeline, and she dashed over to him, grabbing his arm.
"Honey, what's going on? These your friends?" Richard asked, his eyes sweeping over the group, sounding totally indifferent.
Sophie shook her head.
The guys hadn't expected anyone to show up, especially not a man. It was broad daylight, and they weren't dumb enough to cause a scene. With her "husband" there, the thug waved them off.
As they walked away, Sophie let out a sigh of relief.
Richard's teasing voice snapped her back to reality. "I'm curious, if I hadn't shown up, who were you planning to have pretend to be your husband?"
The word "pretend" made Sophie reluctantly let go of his arm.
She'd almost gotten swept up in his earlier "Honey."
How could she forget Richard had nothing to do with her? He only played along to help her out.
"I need to pick up the kids," Sophie mumbled, heading quickly towards the kindergarten just ahead.
After a bit, Richard caught up with her.
Sophie looked at him, surprised.
Wasn't he just passing by?
Richard glanced at her. "Why are you looking at me like that? I'm the kid's dad. Can't I pick up my daughter?"
Of course, he could! Sophie was surprised but also pleased.
She remembered when he first got out, he wouldn't go near Abby, refusing to admit she was his daughter.
He used to be so harsh whenever he saw Sophie and Abby, and Abby was terrified of him.
