The Arranged Bride

Chapter - 29

Nick's POV

" Uhh I will leave ." Without even waiting for my reply , Sophia started walking off .

Stop her , she is leaving. Stop her dammit !

My subconscious yelled but being the perfect idiot I am , I kept shut and watched her leaving. I know I have to talk to her , apologize to her and I will do it as soon as I return. But for now, I have to stay with Ethan. He needs me more right now.

.........

" Nick , go home. I will stay with Ethan." Mom said as she came and sat down beside me.

" No Mom, I'll stay." I argued. Honestly I didn't want to leave Ethan.

" Nick , you have been sitting here since morning. Your Dad is here with me and Ethan is fine now. Just go home and take some rest." Looking at her stern eyes , I knew I wasn't going to win this. So I gave her a hug and left the hospital.

Now that I was heading to home, I couldn't help but get nervous. I had seen the look of pure hurt on her face when those words had left my mouth. I would do anything to get her to forgive me.

Parking the car , I made my way inside the house. Everything was unusually quiet. Sophia wasn't there in the living room . So , I swiftly went up to our bedroom.

On opening the door I couldn't see her there. I knocked on the bathroom door but got no reply. When I pushed it open , there was nobody inside. I checked our walk-in closet as well but she wasn't there. Panick started rising inside me . I hurried down the stairs to check the room where she used to stay earlier and eventually checked each and every corner of the house but she wasn't anywhere.

It was pretty late and she wasn't home yet. Where is she ? Is she okay ? Did anything happen to her? All kinds of negative thoughts came into my mind and I was getting tensed.

Taking out my phone, I called Mom and she picked up on the second ring.

" Nick."

" Mom, Sophia is not here at home. Where is she?" My voice came out impatient.

" She is staying over at Charlotte's house for a few days." Mom answered in a calm tone. Charlotte's house ? Why?

"Why?" I voiced out my mind but somewhere I knew the answer.

" Why do you think? She... She needs some time with her friends." Mom said.

" Or some time away from me." I stated.

Maybe." Mom replied and
