Come And Hug Me

Chapter 62 – Invitation Letter

Sophia was getting tired of Michael's teasing, she took a deep breath then gave Michael a horrible look, and instantly Michael shuddered in horror.

"Okay, I'll take a shower myself!". Michael immediately went to the bathroom to escape Sophia's anger.

Sophia breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Michael enter the bathroom. 

"I didn't know he was so naughty after eight years, did he take the wrong medication? But honestly, my heart was happy to see Michael tease me." Sophia thought while smiling shyly.

The next morning.

Sophia arrived at the campus at eight in the morning because today she has a teaching schedule in the first hour.

This morning, Sophia was in a good mood, she walked calmly and excitedly to the lecturer's room. 

"Good morning…". Said Chloe who had a morning schedule with her.

"Good morning, too!". Sophia gave Chloe a smile as she returned the greeting. 

Chloe was very happy to see Sophia smiling, she walked over to Sophia's desk.

"This is an invitation for you!" Chloe said while handing a luxurious invitation to Sophia. 

"Who's the invitation?" Sophia asked while checking some of the books on her desk.

"Invitation from the chairman of the foundation, he invited all of us to an important event for his son. I feel very proud to be invited to a rich people's event. Moreover, the event will be held on a romantic island belonging to the W Group. The bride is very lucky". Chloe replied excitedly.

"The bride is very lucky, not like someone whose love life is so bad. I happen to know the girl, she is beautiful and successful. She is the perfect companion for a perfect man like Mr. Michael". Said Vio who suddenly appeared and interrupted Sophia and Chloe's conversation.

Vio is very happy to be able to insinuate Sophia because she has always hated losing to Sophia. 

But what Vio doesn't know is that Sophia has long ignored her existence. So, whatever she said it would have no effect on Sophia.

But not today. Sophia couldn't ignore Vio when she heard Michael's name. Instantly her hands trembled to hold the invitation.

After she took a deep breath, Sophia opened the invitation slowly. She then read it. 

"Those who will be engaged are Michael Walton and Clara, the event will be held next week on a romantic island, please bless."

Her heart ached after reading it. Michael is her husband now. So, how could he be engaged to another girl? 

Her previously shining eyes began to dim, she lost her composure.

"This can't be happening, Michael didn't say anything to me last night. Therefore, I shouldn't have any prejudice. I'm sure Michael must have a reason, that's why he didn't tell me, I have to calm down and ask him for an explanation". Inner Sophia.

Vio could feel the restlessness in Sophia's heart, therefore she smiled broadly and left the lecture room.

After successfully winning her feelings, Sophia and Chloe immediately went to their respective classes.

A few hours later.

Just as Sophia finished teaching, she received a message from Michael.

"Honey, I'm beside the road in front of your campus, can you come out?".

Sophia frowned after reading the message from Michael.

"Isn't it still noon? Why is he suddenly in front of the campus? Is he not working?". Inner Sophia.

"Shopia… Let's have lunch together in the cafeteria!". Said Chloe who suddenly appeared and woke her from her daydream.

Sophia turned to Chloe with a smile, after which she said. "I'm sorry, Chloe! Today I can't have lunch with you because I have a business. Then, I'm leaving now!".

"Okay. Be careful on the road!". After that, the two of them went their separate ways. 

Luckily the usually chatty Chloe didn't ask where she was going.

A few minutes later.

Sophia came out of the campus gate and ran to Michael's car while looking around her. She was afraid that someone would see her with Michael.

Seeing Sophia coming, Michael came out. 

"Come in!". Michael said after opening the car door for Sophia. 

Sophia covered her face with her book, she was like a thief who was afraid of being caught.

Without saying anything, she rushed into the car.

"Honey… Why are you such a thief? Is there something that scares you? Or is something bothering you?". Michael asked after he sat comfortably beside Sophia.

"I'm afraid someone will see me in your car, so I have to be careful!". Sophia answered seriously.

Michael smiled without saying anything.

"What are you doing here?". Asked Sophia after she had completely calmed down.

"We're going somewhere for a bit," Michael replied as he started his car. 

Sophia just nodded obediently without asking much, because she believed in Michael who would never take her to such a strange place.

Along the way, Michael and Sophia did not speak. They are busy with their own business. 

After a long journey, they finally arrived at their destination.

Sophia frowned as she looked at the place they had come to. In front of the office, Jason was already waiting for them.

Luckily, the office wasn't that crowded because some of the employees were having lunch. 

"What are we doing here?". Asked Sophia in surprise. 

"Take our marriage book". Michael replied with a smile.

Sophia was surprised, her heart was beating wildly because her and Michael's marriage had been recognized by the state.

"Come on in! We just need a signature!". Michael said as he took her hand and took her inside.

Sophia followed Michael obediently without much questioning because she still couldn't believe that she and Michael were back to being husband and wife, and this time their marriage was recognized by the state. 

"Since when did Michael take care of it? My feeling is, he never asked me anything or asked for a family card from me?". Thought Sophia in amazement.

After signing the marriage certificate, Sophia and Michael held their respective marriage books. Instantly, Sophia was moved to see the marriage book, she finally became a legal wife.

"Boss, this is your new ID card. I've taken care of everything carefully. Hope you are happy!". Jason said as he handed Michael the brown envelope.

"Oh… So my identity card wasn't actually lost? Why didn't you tell me? Even though I was tired of looking for it. Besides, where did you get my old ID card from?". Sophia said while pinching Michael's waist in annoyance.

"Ouch… It hurts dear". Michael pretends to be in pain to gain Sophia's sympathy. 

Jason frowned at the other side of Michael. An iceberg that suddenly collapsed in front of a woman.

"I thought, the boss is a robot who can't smile or complain. It turns out he has a sweet side too. It seems he really loves Sophia". Jason thought.

"Are you alright?". Asked Sophia with a bit of anxiety.

Michael smiled while holding Sophia's hand. "Just a little sore. I'm sorry for not telling you, I did all this to surprise you. But, you can take it easy because you can still hold your old ID card, who knows it might still be useful".

"Yeah I'm sorry, then you won't interfere with my father's business right?". Sophia asked anxiously.

"Will never". Michael replied while hugging Sophia. 

Sophia took a deep breath, she let herself drift into the warmth of Michael's arms.

"Khem… Boss.. I'm still here!". Said Jason who couldn't stand the display of affection in front of him because he didn't have a partner yet.

"Why are you still here? Isn't your job done?". Michael glared at Jason.

Instantly Jason shuddered in horror. "Sorry boss! I'm leaving now!".

"Next month your bonus will be doubled". 

Hearing this, Jason was very happy, his boss was really very generous if this continues he can immediately buy a house and get married even though he doesn't have a girlfriend at this time.

"Thank you, boss! Then I say goodbye!". After that Jason immediately left in front of his boss. 

Meanwhile, Michael takes Sophia back to campus because Sophia still has a teaching schedule.

Sophia refrained from asking about the engagement because she felt the time was not right.

After dropping off Sophia at the campus. Michael immediately returned to his office because he still had work to do.

W Group Main Office.

It didn't take long, Michael arrived at his office. He immediately walked into his room expressionless, and he had returned to his true self.

Just as he opened the door, his brow furrowed as he saw Clara sitting gracefully on the sofa sipping a cup of tea.
