The Girl He Craves

Sophie’s pov

I pull away just in time to see Margo sprinting over to Sergio. The old man is drowsily

getting up by himself using his elbows and the push of his palms.

He pushes Margo away, arrogantly trying to help himself on his own.

I snapped my gaze to Aiden’s in fear, clutching him tighter.

They were trying to take him away from me again.

My eyes filled with tears.

Aiden’s hard expression breaks and he lifts a hand to tenderly swipe some of my hair

off my face.

’Don’t cry my love, I’m not going anywhere.’ He reassured.

But it does the opposite, especially when Sergio chuckled.

buts. There’s not a chance I’ll leave my little family Soph. Especially without seeing

you walking down that aisle towards me.”

He caressed his thumb over my cheek and kissed me without a bother. As if his name

had not been signed on a contract to marry another.

’You’re stuck with me baby, whether you like it or not.” He smiled on my lips, pulled

away and looked over at Margo and Sergio.

Sergio was seated up, nursing his bloody mouth and bruised jaw.

His bruises looked painful.

Margo who noticed Aiden’s gaze had shifted back to his grandfather, shifted on her

feet nervously and threatened. ’The cops are on the way Mr. Xavier. If you want to

evade them I suggest you leave at this moment.”

I stiffened when Aiden responded to her threat cooly. “Why should I try to evade?

Maybe it would be better for them to come here so they could see the scum that’s my

grandfather. Maybe I can also tell them that he forged my signature on a contract.
