Her Life Starts to Spin out of Control

Chapter 221 Living Dangerously

Aaron carried Sophia to her room and put her on the bed. "Sister, what happened?"

"Nothing, I just missed a step. There's no need to make such a big fuss. Why are you home so early

tonight?" Sophia rubbed her ankle. It didn't hurt much, so she figured that it would be fine.

Taking off her shoes, Aaron put her foot over his lap and massaged it gently. "I wasn't so busy today, so

I went home early."

Sophia gave Aaron an affectionate look. What a considerate brother! Taking the opportunity, she said,

"Aaron, I want to ask you something."

Aaron immediately knew what she wanted to ask. He blinked and finally nodded. "Okay."

"These past few years, what else have you been doing in the UK besides studying?" Instead of beating

around the bush, Sophia asked him directly.

Aaron continued to massage her ankle. Without looking at Sophia, he replied, "Work."

"No! Don't lie to me, Aaron!" Sophia was angry. Aaron was clearly hiding something something from

her.

With a sigh, Aaron looked into Sophia's eyes and admitted, "Sister, I've been in a gang for a while."

A gang? Was her brother in a criminal gang? Sophia immediately grasped his hand, her eyes full of

worry. "Aaron! How could you be so stupid? Why did you join a gang? Have you left already?"

Aaron didn't know what to say. Unwilling to lie to Sophia, he shook his head. "No. But you don't need to

worry about me, sister. I'm in a high position and have powerful connections now."

Many people called him "Boss Lo" to show their respect for him. He stayed in the gang not because he

enjoyed the power he had, but because he hadn't taken vengeance on their enemy. It wasn't the time

to leave.

Sophia shook her head. "Aaron, listen to me! Don't get yourself mixed up with the wrong people. The

Lien Group and Pei Group are afraid of the chip. As long as we find that chip, or any loophole in their

companies, we can successfully defeat them. You don't have to take risks!"

"Sister! It's not as simple as you think! Jonas is much more dangerous than you know! Don't you

remember what he did to you last time? He even hired assassins to kill you!"

Aaron hesitated a while before continuing, "When I was in the UK, Jonas sent ten men to kill me and I

was nearly left for dead on the street. If I hadn't called brother, I would have... Sister, you know what

would have happened!"

Sophia immediately turned pale. Ten men... Nearly left for dead on the street.

She hugged Aaron tightly. "Aaron, why didn't you tell me all this before?" Her brother didn't have to

bear it alone.

Aaron patted her on the back. "Sister, it's already in the past. Besides, I'm quite powerful now. Only few

assassins dare accept Jonas' contract to kill me."

He quickly gained power in the gang, and his position was quite stable. Colin had helped him a lot.

"But I don't want you to live such a dangerous life!" Sophia couldn't hold back her tears.

Aaron blamed himself as he wiped her tears away. "Sister, I knew I shouldn't have told you this! Please

don't feel bad, okay? I'm safe with brother and Mr. Huo. If you don't believe in me, believe in Herring

and Colin."

In A Country, no one dared defy Colin and Herring.

Sophia was lost. How could she watch her brother live dangerously everyday? "Aaron, what do I have

to do to make you listen to me?"

Although she believed in Colin and Herring, she was afraid that Aaron would still fall into trouble.

Their father was missing and Aaron was her only family now. She wanted to make sure that her bother

was safe.

"Don't worry, Sister! I know what I'm doing. After I defeat the Pei Group and Lien Group, I'll leave the

gang, alright?" Aaron gently wiped away her tears as he looked at his sister.

Sophia didn't nod, because she wanted Aaron to quit immediately. After contemplating for a while, she

still didn't know what to do. So she compromised and said, "Go home early if you have no other

important things to do, okay?"

"Okay, I'll do as you say." Aaron smiled gently.

The siblings talked for a long time. Finally, Sophia got out of the bed and tried to walk. Her ankle didn't

hurt anymore, and Aaron went back to his room to sleep.

After Aaron left, Sophia's phone rang. It was Hugh. "Hugh, have you arrived home?" She got so caught

up talking with Aaron that she forgot to call Hugh.

"Yes, I'm home now. How's you ankle?" Hugh took off his tie and threw it on the sofa.

Sophia smiled. "I'm fine. It doesn't hurt anymore."

"That's great. Sophia, I forgot to tell you that we need to go on a business trip next Monday." NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

"Where are we going?"

"Z Country. We'll probably stay there for a week, so you'd better tell Aaron in advance." Hugh took out

his robe from the cloakroom.

Sophia didn't think it mattered whether she took a business trip or not. She had nothing else to do

these days. But it was hard for she to part with the little guy... At the thought of Ambrose, Sophia

suddenly wanted to hug him.

"Sophia?" Hugh asked when he didn't get an answer.

Sophia snapped out of her daze. "Oh! Okay, Hugh. I'll tell Aaron tomorrow."

"Okay. If you have any problem, tell me tomorrow at the office. You should go to bed early."

"Okay. Good night!"

After hanging up, Sophia opened her contacts page and stared at Colin's phone number.

Why did he have to do that?

Why did he hug and kiss Dorothy?

Sophia smiled bitterly. She was flattering herself. After all, Colin was going to marry Dorothy.

At 1 o'clock in the morning, Sophia's phone rang.

She had just fallen asleep when the ringing woke her up. It was Colin.

"Mr. Li, it's the middle of the night! Don't you want me to sleep!" She yelled, pretending to furious.

Colin was sitting in his car. He raised his head and looked to Sophia's window, where the light was

turned off. "Where are you?"

Since the lights were out, he wasn't sure if Sophia had gone with Hugh or come back home.

What did Colin mean? It was so late at night. Where would she go? Out with another man? Sophia

closed her eyes. "That's none of your business. If you have something to say, just say it or I'll hang up!"

"Don't you dare to hang up!" Colin's warning tone made Sophia more alert.

Colin was running low on patience. He had to put up with Sophia for the whole night. She not only

hugged Hugh but also seduced Flynn. Good for her!

"Mr. Li, time is so precious. Why are you calling me instead of spending time with other ladies?" Sophia

was obviously jealous.

But Colin was too anxious to realize this.

"I'm asking you again. Where are you?" He needed to know if Sophia was home or if she had gone

with Hugh.
