Noble Pampering: Demon CEO's Relentless Entanglement-Chapter 871 - 867: It’s So Hard to Be Your Wife

Asher Land glanced at Sophie Smith speechlessly, and after a few seconds, he spoke calmly.

"Sophie, you really are disappointing." He said indifferently.

Disappointing?

Sophie sneered, "Asher Land, it’s really hard to be your wife."|

Not only do I have to sleep with you, but I also have to bear your children, adhere to traditional values, and know how to cook...

Asher had originally only intended to make a joke with her, but who knew she would take it in that direction again.

Sophie wanted to say something more to him, but then her gaze swept to the door, ...

An uninvited guest.

"Oh, Miss Irene, how come you’ve dropped by, and why didn’t you inform us in advance?" Nanny Garcia hurriedly went to greet her as soon as she saw it was Irene Morton.

Sophie’s hand holding the chopsticks slightly froze, and after her gaze lingered at the doorway for two seconds, she withdrew it.

Irene’s eyes fell on the family of three full of harmony, and her heart felt uncomfortable.

Her father had already been in Eastern City for two days, yet Asher Land hadn’t visited their old place even once, let alone met Colton Morton.

What does he mean by this? Is he deliberately making her unable to hold her head up in front of her father?

Asher didn’t show much reaction to her arrival, and Sophie just kept her head down, eating the rice in her bowl.

Irene snorted softly, sitting down next to Asher Land.

Nanny Garcia added a set of bowls and chopsticks, placing them in front of Irene.

"I’ve already eaten." From the moment she entered the house, Irene showed no pleasant expression, unsure if it was meant for Asher Land or Sophie Smith.

"Brother Asher, I heard you’re planning to settle down here again?" Irene turned her head to look at his stern side profile, asking word by word.

"Why not?" He didn’t look at Irene, just picked up the wine glass from the table, which Irene reached out to intercept.

"Drink less alcohol."

After hearing Irene’s words, Sophie looked up, somewhat stunned. What she said was so natural, as if it was the most logical thing in the world, and for some reason, Sophie felt uncomfortable.

Indeed, the relationship between Irene and Asher Land had grown excessively intimate.

For example, Irene reaching for his wine glass so naturally, in her view, if there was any distance between Irene and Asher, he would never have allowed her to do so.

Sophie lowered her eyes, and at this moment, she might as well consider herself an outsider.

Actually, Irene’s presence was the reason why she was so eager to secure a status from Asher Land.

She admitted that Irene was indeed her strong rival.

She didn’t want to give up on Asher Land, so she had to defeat Irene.

Sophie didn’t know when her thoughts had become so complicated.

"What exactly do you want here? If you have something to say, say it quickly."

The implication was that it would be best not to disturb their meal.

Listening to Asher Land’s cold tone, Irene felt suffocated inside. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

"Don’t you already know why I’m here? Do I really have to say it clearly in front of Sister Sophie? I could say it, but I fear Sister Sophie might not want to hear it."

In front of Asher Land, Irene sometimes appeared fearful, but before he lost his temper, she always maintained an oblivious facade.

Asher Land truly felt that his heart had grown more spacious. Faced with Irene’s uninhibitedness and Sophie’s quarreling, he remained unmoved and still hadn’t erupted.

Are these two women both here to cause trouble for him today?

He suddenly felt a terribly intense headache.
