Chapter 173 I'll Wait for You All My Life
Sophia was too upset to reply to him. However, she needed to finish the work.
Passing the contract to him, she explained, "This is a share transfer from the Frost family. I took 4%
and left the rest 6% to you. If it's OK for you, sign the contract and release their cargo."
Drake stared at the contract. 'She would never have taken the initiative to see me if it weren't for this
contract, right?'
"Have you made the decision already?" he asked.
Sophia didn't know how to answer for a moment.
"All right. I'll sign it." Drake picked up his pen and signed.
When Sophia took over the contract, she panicked. Somehow, she had a lot of words but got a lump in
her throat.
In the end, she uttered, "I gotta go. See you."
Drake watched her receding back, wondering if she meant "see you around" or "see you never".
After the contract took effect, Drake quickly released the Frost family's cargo.
The Frosts had suffered a significant loss this time. Earlier, they lost several million dollars. In addition
to the transferred shares, their loss reached almost a billion.
Therefore, the Frost family had no energy to do something against Sophia's company for a while.
Seething with rage, Rhett called his wife. "Listen to me carefully. Keep an eye on your daughter. If I
suffer a loss because of her again, I will sell her to the person who could help us."
"What are you talking about, Rhett? Paula is our daughter."
"I said so because she's my daughter. She let me suffer such a big loss. If I hadn't given Sophia
Lawson our company shares, would our family have survived this time?"
Mrs. Frost didn't know many things about the business field, but she could tell how severe the
consequences were from how sad her husband looked.
"OK. I got it."
After ending the call, Mrs. Frost wanted to talk to Paula and give her a reminder.
Much to her surprise, she failed to find her daughter at home.
Therefore she called Paula. "Hello, Paula? Where are you? Why aren't you home?"
"I went for a trip, Mom. I'm dealing with something important."
Mrs. Frost sensed something wrong. "Where have you gone?"
"No worries, Mom. I'll go home after finishing it."
"Paula, you..."
"All right. I gotta go. Bye, Mom." Paula hung up.
When Mrs. Frost called her again, Paula refused to answer the call. Therefore, Mrs. Frost had to send
her a voice message and pass on Rhett's message.
Paula listened to the message but didn't reply. In her opinion, if she could win Noah's heart, her father
would be pleased for sure.
She left home and went to Sealand to find Noah.
However, when she found him, she saw him with Sophia. Paula burst into anger.
Before she strode toward them, she overheard their conversation and slowed down.
"Noah, as I said, please go home."
"Didn't you say you'd finish dealing with the matters here soon? I can wait for you and return home with
you."
Sophia looked at him helplessly. "Why do you have to do this? Noah, even if we returned home
together, we wouldn't get married."
"Why do you have to love Drake Riley? Compared with him, I'm also outstanding."
"You are right. You both are excellent, but Noah, I've taken you as an elder brother since childhood.
Over the years, I never had a crush on you. Thank you for favoring me, but I don't want to be your
girlfriend."
Noah beamed at her. "Sophia, you are indeed straightforward."
"Immediate agony is better than chronic pain. I only wish you could stop being so persistent."
"Sophia..." Noah looked at her thoughtfully. "Since the moment I met you, you have fully occupied my
heart. I know you cannot stop loving Drake so far. It's alright. I'll wait for you. When you forget him, you
can consider being with me."
"What if I cannot forget him all my life?"
"I'll wait for you all my life, then."
Gazing at him, Sophia didn't know what to reply.
She had thought she was persistent enough, but surprisingly, Noah was more persistent and stubborn.
"Noah..."
Paula trotted to them. "Noah, don't be a fool! She doesn't love you. Why do you still confess your love
to her?"
Noah looked surprised to see her. "Why are you here?"
"I came to look for you. Do you know how I felt when I heard you came here to find Sophia? Noah,
she's not worth you doing so." NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
"It's my own business. Stop being nosy!"
"It's also my business, Noah. I like you. I can like you as much as you like her. Why would you rather
pester a woman who doesn't like you than be with someone who likes you?"
Noah looked at her. "Stop it. I have no interest in you."
Sophia watched them. In no mood to stay, she decided to leave some space for them to talk.
Noticing she was leaving, Noah followed her hurriedly. "Sophia, let's have dinner together."
Paula stared daggers at Sophia. "If you dislike him, never give him any hope. Or you're harming him."
Noah was angry. "Paula Frost!"
Sophia chimed in, "She's correct. Noah, Paula knows no one in this town. She came here for you. Take
good care of her."
Noah wanted to catch up with her, but Paula stopped him.
He glared at her. "Do you know how annoying you are?"
Paula gaped at him in disbelief. "What did you say? You said I was annoying. Really?"
"Exactly. If it weren't for you, I could have dinner with Sophia. Why did you come here? You'd better go
home now."
Paula thought Sophia had helped her earlier.
But on second thoughts, Paula realized Sophia had deliberately done so to make Noah detest her!
"No, I won't go. Unless you will go with me."
"I'm busy." Noah shook off her hand and left.
"Noah! Noah!"
However, no matter how hard Paula called, Noah ignored her.
Inwardly, she cursed Sophia like crazy.
Suddenly, a woman walked towards her. "That's what Sophia is. She told others she didn't love Drake
but slept with him. Probably, she played hard to get with Noah. When Drake loses interest in her, she
will be with Noah."
Looking at her, Paula uttered, "Are you Cecelia Price?"
