Get you in my arms

Chapter 3 Lucas Mo

Sophia arrived at the company an hour later than usual.

She was feeling nervous when she saw that her supervisor was waiting for her. Was he going to reprimand her for coming late to work? Much to her surprise, that wasn't the case.

As would be the case, someone had filed for her resignation early that morning.

"You younger generation are so fickle! Always jumping from one thing to another. I can assure you that if you keep this up, you'll have a hard time in life and just end up living in your parents' house for the rest of your life! But I guess that's not up for me to decide," Sophia's supervisor scolded her in a shrill voice as she rolled her eyes.

As she would always do, Sophia didn't bother to argue with her, and quietly swallowed her anger.

To be honest, this job was practically boring. Her salary was poor, and she worked overtime without pay every day. On weekends, she only had one day to rest. The thing she hated most about her job, however, was that that awful, bossy woman who was always picking on her. But she still endured it. It wasn't that easy to get a job nowadays. The economic situation in the whole country was at a downward spiral. There were a lot of people who didn't have jobs and it didn't look like the situation was going to change any time soon. Sophia felt relieved that she was even able to find this job after she graduated.

With a polite nod, Sophia packed up all her things silently and walked out of the company.

Feeling annoyed and defeated, she went back to her cramped apartment. Before she could even put her things down, her landlord knocked on her door. He said that she was to leave as soon as she could. Someone had told her landlord that she wouldn't be living there anymore.

Even her own home was taken away from her!

Did that arrogant, rich man really want to drive her to her own death?!

When she closed the door behind her, she couldn't help but grunt in annoyance. "What an asshole!" she exclaimed. Sophia took deep breaths, and tried to think about the only positive thing left in her life, John.

After they graduated from high school, he was admitted to Columbia University in America with his excellent grades. In order to get to his level, she studied very hard every day. Finally, she was admitted to one of the top national universities, Q University.

the sneer on Lucas' face was enough to know what he was thinking. Seeing this, Sophia got ever angrier. She shook her head with disdain. "This is ridiculous. That's too many things for me to do on my own! Besides, what's so great about this person? I've looked at him about a hundred times since
