Chapter 147: Silver Stokes Family
While carrying Sophia in her hands, Kent continued to walk along the path. Their residence is a long distance away from the wine palace.
Suddenly, Sophia opened her eyes narrowly with fluttering eyelids.
"Hey, when did you wake up...?" Kent said while putting her on the ground.
"I can't... Please carry me." Sophia behaved like a small child. She placed her slender hands around his neck and held him tightly without giving him any chance to put her down.
"Ok, stop pulling me down." Kent said annoyedly and took her back into his hands. He placed one hand on her base and the other on her back for support. Sophia is giggling happily, like a child, in his embrace.
Kent thought she was acting weird because of the alcohol. but Sophia is enjoying her sweet time with Kent in full consciousness. After reaching the residence, Kent inserted the jade token in the outside socket.
"Now get down; the hotel bed is waiting for you." Kent said in a pampering tone.
"Carry me inside... I can't walk." Sophia said in a childish tone. With a big sigh, Kent carried her inside and placed her directly on the bed. But Sophia still held his neck tightly with her slim hands.
If Kent wants to move away, he can easily get away from her grip. But he stayed in the same position while staring into her eyes.
"Go to sleep... We still have a long journey tomorrow." Kent said without turning his gaze. Sophia still held onto his neck without losing her grip.
"Kent, you also sleep here. Please… I can't stay alone." Sophia tried to pull him onto the bed. But Kent resisted her grip on his neck.
"Stop acting like a drunkard. I will be next door. Have a good sleep." Kent said as he slipped away from his hands. Sophia immediately got up from bed and held his hand tightly.
"Sophia, stop it," Kent said before pushing her back onto the bed. "
"Am I not pretty...?" Sophia asked him with moist eyes after staring at his face for a long time.
"Sophia, you are drunk now. If I sleep here in this situation, you will regret it tomorrow morning." Kent said while maintaining a serious face.
'Phat…' Sophia directly slapped Kent on his right cheek.
"Idiot, can't you understand my feelings? Why are you avoiding me like a curse? Am I not good enough for you?" Sophia started wailing like a broken dam.
She moved away from Kent and lied at the other end of the bed. Kent thought she was behaving weirdly because of the wine effect. Even though Kent knows that Sophia likes him, he never expected these pent-up emotions in her.
Kent stayed in the same position for a long time while looking at the back of Sophia, who is still sobbing without showing her vulnerable face. After thinking for a long time, Kent closed the room door and came back near the bed.
While Sophia is still sobbing with her face covered, Kent sat beside her and grabbed her hands. Sophia stared at him with moist eyes without saying anything.
"I'm sorry." Kent said while caressing her slender hands. Sophia immediately got up from the bed and hugged him tightly. She started crying while moving her hands all over his back.
Kent removed the tear marks on her face and kissed her lips gently. A sweet smile appeared on Sophia's face as she enjoyed the sensation of his lips. After a long moment of happiness, Sophia slept in his embrace.

Golden Bamboo City
Among the four big families of Golden Bamboo City, the first comes the Chen family, then the Moonbrook family, where black belle miss aunt belongs, the third richest family is the Mintleaf family, and the fourth one is the Silver Stokes family.
The actual name of the Silver Stokes family is only Stokes. But the present head of the Stokes family, Daren Stokes, married a rich family lady of the Silver family. As she is the only daughter, the Silver family made him their in-home son-in-law and changed the family name to the Silver Stokes family.
Outside the gate of the Silver Stokes family, Fatty Ben and his father, Liam Stokes, stood in wait. Before leaving his son in the big capital city, Liam wants to show Ben to his own brother, who married into the Silver family.
"Dad, we have been waiting here for 20 moments. It seems your brother really forgot about us, like mom said. It's better we leave before they embarrass us." Fatty Ben said in a dispirited tone while staring at the house name of the Silver Stokes family, which is glowing in gold.
"Just wait, Ben. The gatekeeper still has not come out. We will see what the gatekeeper says. Your uncle is a good person in heart. I hope he won't show a cold face to us." Liam said while thinking about his brother Daren.
As Liam expected, Soon the gatekeeper came rushing. "Sir, the master wants to see you. Please follow me." The servant replied in a respectful tone as he led the way.
A wide smile formed on Liam's face as he turned towards his son. Fatty Ben also gleamed with joy while following his father.
The dazzling surroundings and luxurious decorations attracted Fatty Ben's gaze. Instead of rising gardens or colorful plants, the Silver Stokes filled their front yard with material things. It is completely a show-off.
The main revenue sources of the Silver Stokes family are antiques, luxurious decorations, and Yantras. That's why their house also exudes the same type of lavishness and luxury.
Daren Stokes, the brother of Liam, received them at the entrance with a joyful face. Daren directly hugged his brother while personally taking him inside the palace. Ben felt happy that his uncle was not a bad person, as his mother said.
But just as they entered the house, a strong lady voice stopped them with an authoritative command. " Stop… Daren, who are these strangers?"
The lady, wearing all types of jade and gold decorative items on her slender body, slowly began descending the steps. She stared at Liam and Ben with narrow eyes.
