Chapter 536 - Is There a Reaction? (3)
Chapter 536 of "Noble Pampering: Demon CEO's Relentless Entanglement" starts revealing the story: "Irene, Iām telling you right now, thereās absolutely no possibility between us. If you donāt... Donāt miss it!
"Irene, Iām telling you right now, thereās absolutely no possibility between us. If you donāt want me to grow to dislike you, then stop targeting Sophie."Last time, when she drugged Sophie, he had already investigated it with Luke. He didnāt blame her then, as he considered their past relationship, but who knew sheād only become more aggressive now.
Stop targeting Sophie?
Irene let out a cold laugh. Was she expected to just hand him over to Sophie? And then conveniently wish them happiness and everlasting love?
"Brother Asher, sorry, I canāt do that."
She sat back down at the table, steadying her emotions, pretending to eat breakfast nonchalantly.
Asher Land held back a surge of temper, not wanting to lose it in front of her. He tried his best to contain himself and sat at a distance from her.
The maids, seeing the tense atmosphere between the two, quickly retreated far away, not daring to approach the dining table.
Half an hour later, Sophie Smith came down from upstairs. Seeing Asher Land and Irene by the table, she almost instinctively turned to leave, but Asherās gaze landed on her before she could turn away.
He had already seen her, so there was no point in hiding.
"Come over, have some breakfast." His voice softened considerably.
Sophie nodded and walked down the stairs, sitting next to him.
He handed her a cup of warm milk, looking at her with indulgent eyes, seeing a trace of fatigue on her face.
Irene felt uncomfortable seeing their loving morning interaction. She slammed her cup on the table, pulled out her chair, and walked out.
Sophie was about to speak, but he interrupted her.
"Ignore her, just eat your breakfast."
Sophie didnāt say much more, silently drinking the milk in her cup under his intense gaze.
Soon after, Luke Land also came in.
Luke sat down unceremoniously at the table and ordered the maid to bring him breakfast.
"What are you up to so early in the morning?" Asher glanced at Luke, who was eating heartily, and shook his head.
"Just here for breakfast, whatās the problem?" Luke didnāt seem to care, "Whereās that brat Irene? Did you two lovebirds here together scare her off this morning?"
"If you donāt say anything, no one will assume youāre mute."
"Actually, that girl is quite composed. Sophie, you should learn from her." Luke sincerely remarked. Although she was a bit headstrong, considering Asher and Sophieās constant displays of affection, it was commendable that she hadnāt moved back to the Morton Family.
"Hmm?" Sophie didnāt know what he was talking about.
"What I mean is, donāt..." Luke thought for a moment but stopped. Actually, he wanted to say, be more generous, and donāt fight with Asher over his past with Irene. Asher was in a difficult position now.
However, yesterday he also told Irene to mention her past with Asher less in front of Sophie, so saying something now seemed inappropriate.
"Donāt what?" Sophie pursued.
"Oh, nothing..."
"Donāt leave things half-said, just say whatever it is," Sophie put down her milk and looked at Luke seriously, sensing something was off about him.
