Single Mother: Struggling With The Dangerous CEO

She walked past the front of the car and was about to get into a cab, but Patrick hurriedly got out of his car and grabbed her wrist.He forced her to get into the passenger seat of his vehicle.He immediately locked the door so Sophia could not get out.

Sophia worked the whole day and was already tired to the point that she had no strength to be angry or to fight him, so she thought, ‘Let him do what he wants’ 

The car was swift.

Sophia and Patrick were both quiet.

The only sound that could be heard was the sound of the rubber wheels on the pavement.

Though the car was at high speed, John's driving was impeccable, making the atmosphere quite tranquil.

On the other hand, Patrick also smelled like his old after-shave cream.

Sophia's absent-minded heart calmed down for a moment, and she felt so peaceful that she could fall asleep in the next second.She closed her eyes for a bit.

Then, Patrick asked suddenly, "Do you get along well with Mr.Bower?"

Sophia turned her head and looked at Patrick's face.He did not look surprised at all.So Sophia could not help but ask, "How did you know his name?"

"We did some business together" he explained vaguely.

After a long while, he asked again, "Are you planning to marry him?"

She was puzzled by Patrick's actions and words tonight.

Whether it was his questions or his manner, it gave her an illusion that Patrick was acting like a husband right now.

Sophia looked out of the window and at the scenery as they passed.Her heart seemed to skip a beat, "I don't know, I will let nature take its course.

How they looked inside the car was like a beautiful scene in the movie.

However, neither of them noticed that this was the first time they had interacted peacefully with each other in many years.

They also didn't know that their world would change after this night.

She still had one day before she needed to pay the fine for the breach of contract.

Sophia looked at the money she had raised and was sad that it was not even half of what she needed.She took out the diamond necklace that had been sealed in her wallet for five years.She could pawn it for her plan to get through.

Evening came, and Sophia could not sleep.She turned on the lamp and subconsciously touched the wallet on the bedside table.She suddenly remembered that she had pawned the necklace.

There was an emptiness in her heart.

That necklace had been with her for so many years, and she was reluctant to part with it.

"Young lady, it seemed that this necklace is very important to you.The contract will take effect before tomorrow afternoon, which shows that you still have one night to get this back."
