The Arranged Bride

Chapter - 01

Sophia's POV

I slightly groaned when I felt the bright sunlight fall on me. I twisted and turned in my bed for a few more minutes before I was finally up.

Bree who was sitting just by the side of the bed, started barking and wagging her tail. I gently patted her hair.

Today I had a day off and was planning on lazing around. Maybe call my idiot best friends over and watch some movies with tubs of chocolate chip ice cream.

With happy thoughts swimming in my mind, I went to do my morning routine before going downstairs for breakfast. It was my day off so I woke up late and Dad had already left for office.

"Good morning Mom." I jogged off to my seat.

"Good morning sweetie." my mom smiled and set down a plate of breakfast for me.

"I don't know if it's because I am too hungry or the pancakes are really so delicious, but these taste amazing, Mom." I stuffed my mouth with the pancakes after dipping it in chocolate sauce.

Shaking her head she just laughed.

We were talking about random things when Mom's phone rang and it was Dad.

"Yes, David." My mom picked up the phone.

"........" Mom's eyebrows creased and she was impatiently tapping the table top.

"Umm okay, I will just see..."

Hanging up Mom went upstairs. She came down after a few minutes with a file in her hand.

"Sophie , your Dad has forgotten an important file and today he has a meeting with his boss. He really needs it, can you take this file to him?" Mom looked at me with hopeful eyes. I huffed.

So much for planning a fun day.

"Sure." saying that I got up and went to get ready.

I changed into an oversized sweater and a black skirt. Putting on a bit of nude lipstick and winged liner, I left for his office with the file.

I got inside a cab.

"Where to, ma'am?" the driver looked at my face.

"Carter Enterprises, please."
