The Missing SOFIA
Bab~76

"Wait !!"

Sofia who just came out of her class immediately stopped her steps when she heard someone calling her, then the girl immediately turned around.

"So you're the first daughter of Mr Collins who went missing a dozen years ago ?" rebeca looked at the girl.

Sofia gave a small nod and then looked back at the girl in front of her, one of the students who had bullied her.

"Is there anything you want to know again ?" he said with a stern look, he had a feeling of fear to deal with it considering they were the children of rich people who could have used his property to oppress him.

But now his position is higher and he will fight those who dare to be unfair to anyone who is weak.

"N-no." Rebeca immediately stepped back and immediately turned around and passed from there, inexplicably seeing a different aura from the girl. His gaze was very firm and deep as if he wanted to eliminate the opponent just by looking at him.

"Be a little friendly, you scare her" Jessica said as she arrived.

"I've been acting normal Jessy, if she's innocent for what she's afraid of." Sofia said with a smile on her face looking at her sister.

"You're prettier if you smile so." said Jessica again and it made Sofia instantly shake her sister's hair, although their age was only one year different, but his sister was spoiled and childishly different from him who had to be forced into adulthood by circumstances.

"Can I ask you something ?" ask Jessica later.

"Of course." said Sofia while stepping her legs accompanied by Jessica next to her.

"Do you like Aril's brother ?" jessica asked, making Sofia look at the girl for a moment and then looked back at the corridor in front of her.

"Why do you say that ?" said respond.

"Say you like it or not ?" urged Jessica.

Sofia seemed silent for a while and then reopened her voice. "We were once close but only limited to colleagues and nothing more." dustanya later, he did not want his sister to interfere too much with his affairs especially with his feelings.

"Alright, because I think Helena is trying to get close to Aril's sister again." Jessica said.

"That's none of our business, Jessy" Sofia insisted so that her sister would not interfere too much with other people's affairs.

After all, if Aril likes him, the man will definitely fight to get it, not just give other women the opportunity to be close to him.

The afternoon after college Sofia went straight to the office of the father as he requested this morning and the girl was introduced to all the employees who were there.

The warm office environment makes Sofia feel at home and comfortable there, apparently the father is very humanizing all his employees and secretly he is proud of the man.

"Daddy has an important meeting outside, do you want to come ?" haggar James that afternoon, he deliberately wanted to take his daughter so that they had a lot of time together. Talk from heart to heart to build an inner bond they have never had.

"Why should you take me ?" ask Sofia not understand.

"For you to learn a lot." said James, because he knew his daughter was very fond of new things.

Sofia nods a small sign if she agrees, then they immediately leave her office.

"No driver ?" Sofia was shocked when her father opened the steering door himself.

"Then sit in front with Daddy." James said as his daughter opened the back door.

Throughout the journey Sofia only listened to her father speak, apparently behind the cold face and her feet the father also had a high sense of humor although not as funny as his adoptive father.

James also seems to tell how his youth was so full of suffering that eventually the man met William.

Sofia understood that if her father was a man of devotion, he would not forget the figure of William who was very important to her.

"Let's get off, Daddy's gonna introduce you to our business client" James asked after stopping his car at a restaurant.

Then they immediately went down and passed into the restaurant, there were two men waiting for them and Sofia's steps immediately stopped when she saw one of the young men there.

"Good afternoon, Mr. James." said a middle-aged man when James arrived.

"Oh yes, Mr. Mark, this is my daughter, Sofia. I think you've heard all the news going around" James said, introducing Sofia.

"Honey, this is Mr. Mark. He trusts Mr. William to take care of some of his hotels and that's his son George, he's Aril's best friend." James seems to introduce them to Sofia.

While Sofia hesitantly reached out her hand, she somehow disliked the two men before her, especially the young man who had once bullied her all-out while on campus.

"Sofia" said Sofia introduced herself, then the girl immediately pulled her hand back when she felt George's hand grip a little strong.

Throughout the business conversation, Sofia feels uneasy when George does not stop stealing glances at her. "Dad, it looks like I want to go back" he said later.

"Of course, baby." James said.

Then Sofia immediately moved and passed to the toilet at the end of the restaurant, after fulfilling his wishes and tidying up his appearance the girl immediately came out but suddenly he tiptoed in shock when he saw George was seen standing right in front of the toilet door.

"This is a women's toilet" said Sofia reminded, then she immediately passed the man just like that.

"Wait !!" said George who immediately stopped Sofia's steps.

"I want to talk to you." added George again and suddenly made the girl turn around to look at him.

"It looks like there's nothing important we should talk about" Sofia said.

"Of course there is." said George.

"Quick say, 'cause I have to get back before Daddy looks for me !!" sofia orders later, though both of their fathers are good friends but not for her.

"Why rush things and you know I can hardly believe you're Uncle James's daughter who went missing a dozen years ago" George said.

"Do you just want to say that ?" sofia said, although she hoped that the man would apologize for his actions that had influenced all of her college friends to bully her.

"Of course not." said George.

"Well it seems like you prefer to the point, I know Aril has been in a match with Jessica and after you've been there surely the match will turn to you." george and Sofia seemed to listen to the man.

"But how hard it would be to marry someone who doesn't like you, right ?" george said again.

"I don't understand what you mean." Sofia said.

"Ariel already has Helena, her first and last love. So I hope you know yourself enough." said George.
