Atrophy of Love: Mr. Harris, Stop Fooling Around! novel Chapter 355

“Soph!” Nicole was so terrified that her face instantly paled as she rushed forward.

Leah quickly rushed over in panic as well. “Sophia, what happened… Ah!”

Her legs buckled beneath her and she fell on Sophia.

Where Nicole and William could not see, she pinched Sophia’s underarm hard. She knew that it was an inconspicuous spot to bruise, and the underarm had more pain receptors than other parts of the body.

Then, Leah glanced at Sophia’s expression only to see that Sophia’s eyelash did not even flinch. It seemed that she had really fainted and was not just playing pretend.

“Leah, are you alright?” William hurried over and helped her up, but his gaze remained on Sophia as he continued. “If you’re not feeling well, you should just rest in your room and not cause even more trouble here.”

Cause more trouble? Leah winced internally. Her brother had never spoken to her this way before.

Moreover, if she was injured along with someone else, her brother would care more about her than the other…

“Sophia? Sophia?” Of course, William did not know the thoughts in Leah’s head. He loosened his hands around her and went to Sophia while gently calling out her name.

However, Sophia’s eyes were shut close. It seemed that something bad had happened.

“We don’t need the two of you here pretending to be nice. If it weren’t for you, Soph wouldn’t have fainted from aggravation!” Nicole shoved William aside angrily, her bloodshot eyes wide open from anger.

William felt guilty and worried. “The doctor’s office is just in front of us, I can carry Sophia over!”

“There’s no need!” Nicole rejected him with a look of disgust and took out her phone to call Sterling. “Soph fainted outside the room, hurry up and come over now!”

As soon as she finished her sentence, Sterling rushed out of the room with James. James was flustered and anxious while following behind Sterling.

“She was well just now, why did she faint all of a sudden?” Sterling asked as he ran over impatiently and scooped Sophia up into his arms.

Nicole followed behind him anxiously. “Stop asking so many questions and get a doctor! We don’t know if it’s her pulmonary edema recurring again!”

Knowing Sterling’s temper, William had no doubt that he would be asked to leave if he followed them. However, he could not stop worrying about Sophia, so he still tagged along without hesitation.

Leah followed beside him, her face pale and filled with worry as well.

“The two of you can stop shedding your crocodile tears! Stop following us and scram!” Just the mere sight of the siblings irritated Sterling. He could not help but stop and growl at them.

Leah’s eyes were red and swollen by then. With a trembling voice, she said, “We’re just worried about Soph…”

“Scram! Do you not understand English at all?” Sterling was so outraged that there seemed to be fumes coming out of his ears.

Nicole cast a cold look at the Jones siblings and patted Sterling’s shoulder. “Let’s get Soph to a doctor first!”

“We’ll get you back for this, just wait and see!” Sterling yelled as he gritted his teeth and quickly left after with Sophia still in his arms.

William’s brows were tightly knitted together. He instinctively moved forward, intending to follow after them, but after a slight hesitation, he took a step back.

Since Sophia was unwilling to see him, it would only aggravate her even more if he stuck around, right?

“Will, I… Did I stir up trouble again?” Leah looked up at her brother. A tear fell from the corner of her eye and she quickly wiped it away with a hand.

William looked down at her, his chest overwhelmed with a rush of different emotions.

If this was in the past, he would have been certain that she was wronged. He would feel distressed for her, but now… He could barely tell whether she was acting or not.

She needed to work hard to earn everything she had, but the White family and Charles were always handing Sophia everything she wanted. None of the things Sophia had were acquired by herself through her own capabilities!

How could she lose to an idiot like her in love and relationships?

Leah’s rational side told her that she should stop going against Sophia like this because it would not do her any good, but her emotional side just could not let all her past efforts go to waste just like this.

She should just think of this as her last try. After this, if Charles still chose to be with Sophia… She would finally let go!

After doing a full-body examination on Sophia, the doctor said, “Her body is a little weak and her liver is quite heaty. I’ll write you a prescription in a bit. You can collect the medicine required for her to regulate her body. She’s pregnant, right? How many months now?”

Sophia laid in bed with her eyes still shut tightly. She showed no signs of waking up at all.

“Barely a month!” Sterling looked at his sister and continued anxiously. “Doctor, are you sure that my sister’s body is just slightly weak? Why did she faint all of a sudden, and why hasn’t she woken up yet?”

The doctor took off his glasses and sighed lightly. He wiped his glasses before putting them back on and answered, “Maybe… She’s too tired and fell asleep?”

As he said these words, his eyes quickly scanned across Sterling, James, and Nicole.

Sterling, “...”

Damn it, why did this doctor seem unreliable?

However, quick-witted as she was, the thought finally occurred in Nicole’s head as she figured it out.
