Little Sophie didn't expect that the recent few times she returned to Southern County, it was always with Asher Land. However, being with him indeed made her feel much better. Each visit to Southern County left her exhausted and disheartened, but his company brought her a sense of peace.
Leaning against the car window, Little Sophie drifted into a dream. Asher Land parked the car on the roadside and turned to look at her peaceful sleeping face.
Her phone vibrated in her bag, but she showed no reaction.
Asher Land picked up the phone; it was a call from her father.
He didn't hesitate much and instinctively pressed the answer button.
Today, her father's attitude towards him was inevitably suspicious. Her father despised him, that was beyond doubt. But the reason for it was something he couldn't understand.
As soon as the call connected, Christopher Smith's enraged voice was heard.
"Little Sophie, you mustn't be with that man."
Mustn't be with that man?
