Sophia immediately followed them. The men were searching every room, acting as if they were
customers here.
Paul walked in from outside and whispered in Drake's ear.
Of course, Drake knew that those men weren't sent here by Sophia. She wouldn't do such a thing.
Thus, it meant someone else knew their meeting in the restaurant.
"What should we do?"
Drake had asked the waiter to pack up the food, he said, "Told the manager to deliver the food to my
house."
He couldn't carry it or he might be recognized.
"Yes, sir."
When no one was noticing, Drake walked out of the room.
It was no surprise he would dine here. After all, he was one of the Rileys. Even though he wasn't in
power anymore, he was rich enough to dine here.
He noticed the men that were searching for the King of the Underworld.
Drake could feel that some of them were staring at him.
Then, Sophia spotted him.
"Drake, why are you here?"
Drake was surprised to see her. He thought she had left.
"I'm here to pick you up."
"Pick me up?"
Sophia looked surprised.
"Yeah. You said you would have dinner here tonight. I had wanted to surprise you but you left when I
got here. Hey, why did you come back?"
For a moment, Sophia wondered if the man she had had dinner with just now was Drake. But she
stopped suspecting after hearing his words.
"I left something here but I've found it. Let's go home now."
"Okay."
They then went home.
The men searched for a long time but didn't see anyone suspicious. Their head called Rashad.
"Mr. Witt, he should've escaped."
Rashad wasn't surprised. Since he was the King of the Underworld, he must be a powerful man. It was
normal that he wasn't found this time.
"But we saw Mr. Riley here."
Rashad was about to hang up, but he was stunned for a moment when hearing this name.
Drake? Was it a coincidence he appeared in the restaurant?
"Why was he there?"
"He seemed to be here to pick up Ms. Lawson. Ms. Lawson was having dinner here with someone and
he came to pick her up."
Was it really just a coincidence?
Rashad told his men to come back.
When Sophia and Drake got home, Bonnie had fallen asleep.
Sophia complained, "You didn't have to come pick me up. You left Bonnie alone at home? Don't you
think she will feel sad being left alone?"
Drake stroked her cheek, "It's okay. Bonnie was happy knowing that I went to pick you home."
"Besides, I was worried every time you were away. I had to go pick you up."
That was true.
When Sophia told him about the dinner, she did it because she was worried that the King of the
Underworld might do something to her. She wished him to go pick her up.
But she didn't ask him to do so because of Bonnie.
She threw herself into his arms, "Drake, you are the best!"
Drake dared not to agree because he had kept something from her. He knew that she would be really
angry if he didn't tell her the truth at a proper time.
"Sophia..."
"Yes?"
When he was about to say something, Bonnie walked out of the room holding a doll.
"Mommy, You're home!"
Sophia pushed Drake away and walked to Bonnie.
Although she often did this, Drake had never liked it and felt uncomfortable.
"Bonnie, why are you up?"
Sophia crouched down and stared at Bonnie.
Bonnie hugged her, "I miss you! Mommy!"
Sophia got a lump in her throat, she held her up and walked into the room, "Yes, I'm home. I will sleep
with you tonight, alright?"
"Great!"
Sophia closed the door after walking into the room.
When she came out again, she walked to the fridge in the kitchen to get something when she saw a
food box.
It was from the restaurant she was at tonight. Why would...
Did she really meet with Drake instead of Rashad tonight?
Drake walked out and saw her in the kitchen. He found it strange and walked over. He was flustered
when he saw her staring at the food box.
"Sophia, what's wrong?"
"Nothing. I am just looking at the food box."
"Oh. The cook didn't make lunch today, so I ordered takeout from the restaurant. What's wrong?" Drake
was impressed by how good he was at making up stories.
"Nothing."
Sophia shut the fridge.
That made sense. Was she being too sensitive? If Drake were the King of the Underworld, why would
he keep it from her?
Therefore, she didn't say anything more and the King of the Underworld didn't appear in front of Drake
again. Sophia didn't think much about it.
A month soon passed. Sophia blindfolded Drake and took him somewhere.
Bonnie came along.
Drake didn't know what she was going to do and asked with a smile, "Sophia, can you tell me what you
want to do?"
Sophia answered, smiling, "You'll know when we get there."
Drake didn't know where she was taking him. After driving for about twenty minutes, they got off and
walked to somewhere.
Bonnie marveled, "Wow!" After Sophia made a shush, Bonnie immediately shut her mouth.
Drake was getting more and more curious. He really wanted to know where they were.
There were people speaking. When Drake appeared, someone in the crowd said.
"Here comes Mr. Riley!"
Drake thought of a lot of places he might be now but couldn't figure it out.
When Sophia told him to stand still, she smiled and said, "I am going to take off your blindfold now."
When the blindfold was taken off, Drake found himself in a place he had never been before.
A lot of people were smiling at them. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Mr. Watts had walked over to congratulate, "Drake, I didn't know you have such a talent before. I am
surprised!"
