Noble Pampering: Demon CEO's Relentless Entanglement-Chapter 553 - 549 He’s Going to Get Engaged to Irene Morton (Part 3)

He said, "But Sophie, do you know? I’m not well, not well at all."

Her nose tingled, and she dared not look up to meet his eyes.

Seeing her helpless look, he really wanted to hold her in his arms, gently kiss her, and comfort her.

"Sophie..." He was just about to call her name when, unexpectedly, she started to cry upon hearing his voice.

He was at a loss; he knew she felt wronged. If not for making Nathan let her go, she wouldn’t have ’sold’ herself to Nolan. He understood all of this.

He wanted to hug her, but she quickly took a step back.

"Asher Land, let’s just keep some distance for now." She knew he was about to get engaged to Irene Morton. Right now, Nathan probably wouldn’t do anything to him, but if things rekindled between them, Nathan would likely take measures again.

His hand awkwardly hung there for a moment before he slowly let it drop.

Not far away, Nolan Davis caught them out of the corner of his eye and was about to approach when Luke Land stepped in to stop him.

"Hey, Mr. Davis, let those star-crossed lovers have a moment." Luke sighed and shook his head, "My third brother has almost been driven insane lately."

"Oh, really?" Nolan raised an eyebrow, "I heard Third Young Master Land is about to get engaged to the Morton Clan Group’s heiress. Isn’t that something to be happy about?"

"Mr. Davis, don’t deliberately say such things. You know my third brother is infatuated with that woman. Why would he willingly get engaged to Irene? Ah, anyway, Mr. Davis, I beg you, just don’t go over now. Let them talk alone a little longer." Luke intentionally sighed deeply, "My poor third brother..."

"What if I said I was also infatuated with that woman, Second Young Master Land, what should I do?" Nolan said seriously. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

"Uh, well..." Luke awkwardly scratched his head and laughed drily, "Seems like I should stay far from Sophie to avoid getting infatuated."

Nolan ignored Luke, threw his cue to the caddy, and walked towards Asher and Sophie.

"Third Young Master Land." Nolan’s steady voice sounded, and Asher concealed the complex emotions in his eyes and responded with a greeting.

"Third Young Master Land, I heard you’re getting engaged to the Morton Clan Group’s heiress?" Nolan smiled slightly, "Congratulations."

"Thank you." His voice was devoid of any warmth.

"I’ve received the invitation from Old Master Land. Don’t worry, Mr. Davis will definitely attend." Nolan glanced at Sophie before leisurely speaking, "At that time, I’ll bring Miss Smith along."

Sophie knew that Nolan was definitely trying to make things difficult for her.

"You guys continue talking; I’m going to the restroom."

With that, Sophie left the two men standing there in confrontation and walked far away.

Seeing her leave, Asher lost the interest to continue talking with Nolan and made an excuse to leave. Naturally, the direction he left was the same as where Sophie went.

Sophie leaned against the restroom sink, breathing in and out, trying to stabilize her emotions.

Seeing Asher made her heart race uncontrollably.
