Chereads / His only Cure / Chapter 19 - Chapter 19

Chapter 19 - Chapter 19

Standing at his desk with his eyes closed, he tried to focus on his work. He sat down in the chair and opened his laptop, getting to work. He must do well tomorrow. He can't be distracted by anything. Darell spent the rest of the night thinking carefully about his plan of action. He was used to such effort, but his temper was getting worse.

Maybe falling asleep next to Sophie would change everything and he wouldn't have to exhaust himself like that anymore. Only it would have to be a daily occurrence and to do it, he would have to convince the girl...

Sophie woke up as usual, looking at her phone. Today was an important day for Darell. So she had to do everything so that there would be no need to call him. She hadn't had time to put the phone down yet when she received a video call from an unknown number. With furrowed eyebrows, she decided to answer. A smiling Darell appeared before her eyes, staring at her like a picture.

"How did my princess sleep" He asked sexily. Sophie rolled her eyes with a bored face 

"Okay" A tiny smile could be seen on her face. Seeing her happy face, Darell licked his lower lip.

"You'll make me go crazy" He covered his mouth with his hand, seeing the desire to play with him in her eyes.

She made innocent eyes, biting her lower lip and leaning over the phone. She touched her lip with her finger, slowly running it over her delicately pink lips. A sound of contentment came from his chest.

"You want to brighten my day? Keep doing that" His hand slid off the screen. Sophie smiled playfully, gently biting her finger. She ran her hand down her neck, tilting her head back and closing her eyes. She looked incredibly sexy. The man's eyes stared hungrily at her body and his jaw clenched tightly. 

"Come on, little one, show me more" He said in a low, hoarse voice.

Sophie slowly looked down as if watching what he was doing, then came back looking into his hungry eyes, biting her lip. She put the phone down, propping it up on the pillow, turning her back to him.

Seeing her firm ass stretched out towards him, he had a great desire to spank her. A menacing growl came from his chest. She looked at him flirtatiously over her shoulder, slowly slipping one strap off her shoulder. Her other hand wrapped around her waist as she slowly lifted her shirt up. She quickly turned towards him, sitting on her knees. One hand moved from the neck down to the breasts and the other to the thigh, slowly approaching the center. 

"Fuck, Sophie!" Darell moaned with pleasure, closing his eyes tightly. A victorious smile appeared on the girl's face. 

"Have a nice day" She hung up before he could say anything. Her heart was pounding like crazy and her face was flushed.

Sophie buried her head in the pillow and grunted. She had never done anything like this before. She had never made a man feel pleasure like this. What even came to her mind... She wanted to tease him a bit on the phone but... what now? What will he do when he comes back?

Sophie sat up straight, worried. She thought about the consequences a little too late. She slapped her cheeks with her hands to pull herself together. She went to get ready for work and eat breakfast.

A little after seven, she left the apartment, heading towards the company building.One day like every other day, she sat down at her desk and started looking through documents. After eight o'clock, Noah showed up at her place with information.

"Good morning, Miss Sophie. I understand that you have already been informed by our boss about the situation" He asked, getting the nod from her. "I can mostly handle it myself, but there will be a meeting today and you must be present at it on our boss's behalf. Here are the documents you need to get to know. The meeting will be in our conference room no. 2 at 1 in the afternoon. Will you be able to make it?" He looked, fully aware of how much responsibility had fallen on her.

"I'll be there on time" She replied briefly, looking through the received documents. Noah left her alone so she could work in silence before everyone else and anyone else arrived. 

"Just endure these few days. You can do it" He consoled himself as he returned to his desk.

Sophie, immersed in the documents, already had everything prepared for the others. She efficiently distributed responsibilities and, if necessary, told employees to call the boss's assistant. She collected the papers from Noah and went to Darell's office to focus on the task at hand.

Noah, seeing Sophie entering the boss's office, didn't say anything, just smiled slightly. She didn't sit in his place. She found a comfortable place on the sofa, checking how much time she had left. The hours passed and the meeting was getting closer.

Suddenly, a slim, older woman burst into the office, scaring Sophie. She was elegantly dressed and wore heavy makeup, not to mention perfume. 

"Where are Darell and Diana?" She demanded, noticing the woman sitting on the sofa. 

"May I know your dignity?" Sophie stood up and addressed the woman politely.

"Irina Pilsar. Where are my son and daughter?" She replied proudly, brushing her short black hair from her cheek.

"I'm afraid, Mrs. Pilsar, that I am not able to answer this question. I only received information that the boss and his sister would be gone for a few days. I can't say anything more" She smiled professionally at the woman.

"And who are you? I don't know you" She asked gruffly, looking her up and down.

"My name is Sophie Forzani and I am the new manager of the marketing department" She introduced herself, gently bowing her head.

"Forzani? From Forza? Daughter of THIS Antonio?" She asked with disgust, frowning. 

"What are you looking for? Are you spying for your father?" She snorted. 

"I was disinherited and deprived of my title. I have nothing to do with that company. It's owner is now Miss Bethany, Mr. Antonio's new daughter" She explained calmly. "Mr. Pilsar has decided to hire me into his company and at the moment I am helping his assistant in his absence" 

"Ha, I don't know where this boy's eyes are. To employ an enemy" She shook her head in disappointment. She turned on her heel and went to pester Noah. The older woman could be heard complaining through the door about how it looked like the owner of the company couldn't be met.

How is it possible that no one knows where he is? Since when does the company employ spies and a few others...

Well, Sophie didn't have time to banter with Darell's mother. The meeting time was slowly approaching, so she collected the documents and walked past the two indifferently, heading to the conference room.

To her surprise, Mrs. Pilsar also appeared at the meeting, looking at Sophie with narrowed eyes. However, the woman remained professional and, despite a few comments from Mrs. Pilsar, the meeting was calm, if a little awkward. Sophie saw how everyone tried not to notice and not react to the boss's mother. The woman, visibly frustrated by this fact, complained more and more loudly. 

"Would you like something to drink?" Sophie suggested politely.

"For you to poison me? No thanks. I can handle it myself" She said, leaving disgusted.

Apparently Sophie's intentions were successful in getting rid of Mrs. Pilsar on day one. Apart from the fact that she didn't want to get rid of her at all. So she and Noah managed to wrap up today's business without any problems. Sophie went back to her office for a bit, checking how the others were doing while she was gone. As always, everyone did great.

Tired from a long day at work, she went to order takeaway food, not wanting to cook anything herself. With a warm meal packed, she went to her apartment, surprisingly passing by Darell's mother.

 "You again? You're everywhere. Or are you following me?" She asked suspiciously.

"I live here. Like other employees" She quickly explained without waiting for trouble. 

"Hmm" She snorted with dissatisfaction. She turned away from Sophie and walked to the elevator, muttering to herself.

"To do that to your own mother. How will I explain myself now? Only problems with them. When they finally learn" The elevator door opened and the woman took it down to the ground floor.

Sophie, thinking about the day, entered her apartment. She took off her work clothes, took a quick shower and started eating. Feeling sleepy, she lay on the bed, placing her phone next to her. She didn't know if she should call Darell or if Noah would. Her eyelids began to feel heavier and heavier until she finally fell asleep.

The night passed quickly without any sudden awakenings. The next day started normally. Sophie first dealt with her daily schedule for the others and the things she needed to do herself. A little after eight, Noah showed up with a new shipment of documents and a plan for the day. She listened to everything patiently, looking through the papers and nodding to the man. When her other employees entered the office, she greeted everyone with a slight smile and informed them about today's tasks.

After lunch, she went to Darell's office, sat at the end of the sofa, and began her extra work. Not long after she focused on her work, Mrs. Pilsar burst through the door.
