The Rebirth of Sophia Green | COMPLETED

Chapter 44: Why was he upset?

Pearson was twenty-four and had never been in love. He was called "The National Bachelor" on the internet. Although not many people knew his identity, it was widely known that the Pearson family had an eligible heir. Many girls expressed their love for him online. If he wanted a beautiful date, it would have been the easiest thing in the world.

However, Pearson was very stubborn. Ryan used to set him up with beautiful women, but he never liked any of them, which worried Ryan a little.

There were two options. One, Pearson was gay, so women wouldn't be for him. Or, two, Pearson had physiological problems!

If it were the second option, it would not bother him, though he hoped it would be helpful for him. And if it were the first option, he wished he would just tell him so he wouldn't keep setting him up with the wrong people.

Anyway, he hoped this might be an opportunity—a chance for his boss to really have a normal relationship.

When Sophia arrived at school the next morning, Louie put another box on her desk.

"What's this?" Sophia looked at the box, "Louie, you really don't need to bring food to me every day."

Louie smiled, "I like baking snacks, and I heard your friends loved the cupcakes. So I brought some more."

Sophia opened the box, and there were fresh, home-made cookies inside.

Although she had never done it herself, she knew that baking cookies were very time-consuming. Did he think that because she was the boss, he had to treat her specially?

She thought Louie was doing too much. He could just buy some cookies from the store. He was taking a lot of trouble to do it himself.

She said to him seriously, "Louie, don't bring me any more baked goods. All right? Thank you, but it takes too much time to do that every day."

"Yeah." Louie replied and bowed his head to read.

At the end of the first class, Kevin ran over. He also brought a box for Sophia.

"Sister, I baked some cakes! Have a try!"

What was going on?

Was it a rule of being a brother to feed the boss every day?

Kevin's grades were so good that she did not worry about it holding up his work. With his ability, as long as he performed, as usual, he would definitely get admitted into Glinton University. Sophia, though reborn, was still used to being cooked for by him.

However, Louie did not do well in his work. He had asked Sophia several math problems, all of which were of only medium difficulty.

She didn't want his work to suffer because he was baking her snacks.

Sophia thought that would be the end of it, but the next day, Louie came and put a snack box on her desk.

"It's a red bean cake today!" Louie smiled. He smiled like a sweet child.

Would there be something different every day?

She had to talk to Louie and tell him that she was not that kind of boss, he didn't have to do anything for her. She would still protect him even without the sweet treats.

After all, protecting Louie was a piece of cake for her. Once she claimed that he was under her protection, no one dared to bully him again. She didn't need an actual cake.

Louie bit his lower lip, leaving a flash of white print on his ruddy lip, with an expression of grievance, he said, "Is it because... my baking is not as good as Kevin's?"

Sophia Green was confused.

Why was he upset?

Sophia didn't want to hurt Louis' feelings, so she accepted his red bean cake and said again, "You really don't need to give me things anymore!"

Louie smiled and pulled out his textbook to do his homework as if she hadn't said a thing.

Kevin had baked little fried fish for Sophia as a snack that day. It was delicious. Sophia had always liked it. She asked Kevin to make more so she could give her mother some to taste.

"Boss, I think I've gained two pounds!" Carol pinched her stomach and looked sad, "ah well, keep recruiting brothers! Ha-ha. I'm not afraid of getting fat!"

Melissa was infatuated, "Prince Charming's snack is so delicious!"

"Who is this crazy girl? I don't know you!" Sophia said.

Melissa shook Sophia's arm back and forth, "Boss, can you help me get close to Louie? I like him so much."

Sophia shook her off, "No. You've got to focus on work. No, distractions!"

But Melissa was in a hurry, "Boss, I heard that Louie is going to art school. He won't go to the same university as me! If I don't seize the opportunity now, we'll never be together!"

Sophia gave her a look, "Tell me, what do you like about him?"

Melissa's face went gooey, "He is so handsome!"

Sophia was speechless.

As soon as Sophia left school on Friday afternoon, she saw Ryan Sampson waiting for her. He had come by car, which was parked on the side. It was nothing special, and students walked past without noticing him.

"Hi, Miss Green. Mr. Pearson went to make the reservation, and I've come to pick you up." Ryan leaned over to the door.

"You don't need to pick me up. I can ride there, or I'll have to come back to school to pick my bike." Sophia said, pointing to her bike, "You go first. I'll be there in a minute."

The KTV was very close to school. Sophia got there quickly. When she entered the door, Ryan was already there, waiting for her at the door. He led her to a private room.

The room was dimly lit, and Pearson was sitting on the sofa in the shadows. Hearing someone come in, he looked up, his dark eyes glistening with dots of light from the screen.

"It's you?!" Pearson stood up, and the screen lit up half of his face, "Aren't you the student from Glinton University who was an admirer of Sophia Green?"

"You misunderstood me." Sophia smiled, "Not everyone who visits Glinton University is a student of Glinton University."

Pearson paused for a moment. He didn't care.. He switched subjects, "I don't remember much about KTV that day, but I remember your voice.
