NovelEnglishAlthough Sophia tried to rationalize the situation, observing Brandon's tense and handsface as he silently drove made her
heart twinge with discomfort—an intense feeling of empathy and concern swelled within her.
"So, today," She couldn't help but start to explain in a soft voice to Brandon, who hadn't asked or said anything, "lI went to the
bidding meeting with Mr. Dempsey. | had seen the design plans for the Frost family at my brother's place, but | wasn't sure if they
were authentic, so | wanted to check it out in person. Mr. Dempsey happened to say he had an invitation and could takewith
him, so we planned to go together."
At this, Brandon's hand, which had been on the steering wheel, paused. And he glanced over at her.
Sophia continued quietly, "lI bumped into Ivan when | got there. He was representing his father's company for the bid. We chatted
for a bit, and when it was tto go in, Mr. Dempsey hadn't arrived—he called to say he was stuck in traffic. So Ivan offered to
takeinside with his team, and that's how | went with them. At the event, while | was getting a drink, the beverage cart behind

Sophia shook her head, "No."
Brandon nodded, not saying much after that, but the tension on his face had noticeably eased.
By the tthey got home, Theresa had already fallen asleep.
Sophia carried her out of the car, and as she was about to take her upstairs, Brandon got out too and reached out his hands.
"Letdo it."
His words overlapped with his action as he took Theresa into his arms.
Together, they brought Theresa back to the master bedroom. As Sophia fixed up the bed, Brandon carefully laid Theresa down and
carefully covered her with a blanket.
Seeing how natural his movements were, Sophia didn't interfere but whispered, "I'll step out," and walked towards the door.
Just as she barely opened the door crack, a sudden hand reached from behind, pressing against the door.
The door that had just been opened was pushed shut, and Sophia found herself spun around.
She looked up in shock, and before she could see clearly, Brandon's familiar intense warmth enveloped her with powerful emotion,
as he kissed her—deep and heavy.
Sophia could clearly hear his labored breathing, loaded with unspeakable emotions.
As she tried to move, he pinned her against the door even more firmly, his kiss growing more intense, as if he was venting and
confessing all at once, desperate and rough.
Sophia's hands, which had been hanging by her sides, hesitated before they rose to embrace him tightly.
Brandon's kiss turned frantic, pressing her harder against the door, taking her in a deeper kiss.
The sound of their heavy, disordered breathing filled the quiet space.
It was rare for Brandon to reveal such intensely emotional moments.
But such raw emotions only made Sophia feel an inexplicable sadness, along with an ache in her heart.
Instinctively, she held him tighter.
After a long time, the heavy breathing finally began to slow, and Bradon's kisses gradually cto a stop.

"Sophia, if you don't explain things toclearly, | might lose my mind," he said, his voice hoarse and slow.
She would never understand how seeing her in the company of another man nearly drove him to madness.
