Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around! novel Chapter 211

“… Let go of me first,” Sophia White’s neck was aching from the hug and she could hardly breathe.

Clara Robertson finally let go of her as she pulled out a chair to sit next to her. She rested her chin on her hands while staring brightly at Sophia White. “Wow, how could there be someone so beautiful in this world. You’re literally a fairy who had descended to earth! You’re too pretty!”

Sophia White, “…”

The first two compliments sounded quite normal, but it got much too exaggerating at the end.

“Speak normally,” said Sophia White.

“Hehehe, I’m sincerely complimenting you! Don’t you know that you were shining so bright that it blinded everyone when you walked in with Big Iceberg today!”

Sophia White, “…”

“Since I’ve given you major compliments, can you tell me when would those videos of Tiffany Lawrence be released?” Clara Robertson asked as she hung on to her shoulder while smirking.

Sophia White was not accustomed to such intimacy with others. She pushed Clara Robertson away and said lightly, “I don’t know either.”

“Sophia, you look extremely beautiful today, a hundred times more beautiful than Miss Jones!!!” Clara Robertson moved once more towards her and chatted away.

Sophia White raised her eyebrows, “… Don’t you have any other adjectives besides beautiful?”

“Oh, you noticed? I’m bad with languages and am always failing my exams. Writing an essay is equivalent to killing me!” Clara Robertson replied dejectedly.

Sophia White, “… Charles Harris is the one who got someone to release them. I have no idea when will it be.”

Clara Robertson covered her mouth in astonishment when she heard this. “Big Iceberg actually…. He would actually do something like this?”

“Why not?” Sophia White lowered her eyes as a dark look crossed them.

At the end of the day, Charles Harris and Leah Jones were the same kind of people. They will do anything to get what they want. There was nothing he would not do to accomplish that.

Clara Robertson giggled and said shyly, “I’ve always thought Big Iceberg was a little fairy who ate flowers, drank dewdrops, and never needed to shit.”

Sophia White, “…”

She had felt a little depressed when talking about Charles Harris, but that feeling went away after Clara Robertson’s interruption.

They sat and chatted for a while. It was mostly Clara Robertson complaining to Sophia White while pointing at Shawn Roberson, who was seated nearby.

She talked about how his mother was a third party who was a beauty with a venomous heart, about how Shawn Robertson had continuously fought and lost to Zachary Robertson. Shawn Robertson was much like an unkillable cockroach, who refused to die even when sprayed with pesticide… In conclusion, she was livid about the injustices faced by her boyfriend.

The relationships between members of the upper society had always been a messy affair. Sophia White was not surprised by the chaotic situation of the Johnson family. All she did was glance a few times towards the direction of Shawn Johnson.

Shawn Johnson had a pair of fox-like eyes just like Sawyer Philips did. It could be that he had noticed her gaze as he turned back to look at her a few times. He conceitedly lifted the wine in his hands towards her and gave her a flirtatious wink.

His oily actions were quite nauseating. His gaze was like the slime left by a crawling snail, it was disgustingly uncomfortable.

Her eyes went red as she said this and the next words were discernable as it gurgled in her throat.

“I’m sorry, Mr. and Madam White. I’m no longer a part of the White family since two years ago,” Sophia White turned away and did not look at her mum’s reddened eyes. She did not say anything too terrible to embarrass them as there were many familiar faces around.

James White’s expression changed slightly when he heard her, but he quickly recovered himself. “Soph, I know you feel resentful for us not helping you when you got sent to prison two years ago.”

“However, you did something wrong. You crashed into Leah and crippled her leg. It’s only right that you spend two years in prison. Leah didn’t charge you for murder, which could have you sentenced to lifetime imprisonment, that’s considered…”

“One of her legs is crippled and one of my daughter’s leg was broken. Why should my daughter get sentenced to two extra years in jail?” Jenny Fisher’s eyes were still red when she interrupted him. She was like a hen whose chick had just been picked off by an eagle.

James White looked unhappy but did not roar at her as usual. All he did was say angrily, “You’re the one who pampered our son and daughter to turn out this way!”

“Well, I’m willing to! I had them in my belly for ten months!” Jenny Fisher gave him an enraged look before turning to Sophia White. Her tears fell freely.

“Soph, if you aren’t willing to return to the White family for our sakes, then do it for Charles, won’t you? Your dad has told me that if you returned to the White family, the Harris family will allow Charles to marry you. If you don’t return, the Harris family would never allow Charles to marry you!”

The look on Sophia White’s face darkened and she cocked her head towards James White.

James White welcomed her gaze and said in a righteous manner, “No matter how immature you are, you’re still a child of the White family. I’ll definitely still think for you. I usually don’t treat you nicely because I want you to achieve your full potential. There are no parents on earth that don’t want their child to do well.”

“Ho!” Sophia White sneered as she walked towards James White.

A smile appeared on James White’s face. “You agree to come home to the White family?”
