Loves Lucky Charm Who Knew My Stunning Groom Is A Zillionaire

"I'm here looking after you and the baby, and now I have to take care of your sister too, Jason. What do you take me for? Your maid?"

"Lower your voice, or Sophie might overhear us."

"What does it matter? If I'd known I'd end up looking after your sister as well, I would've chosen to marry anyone but you."

Sophie Brooks, overhearing their argument, felt her headache worsen.

She had helped her sister-in-law, Leyla Brooks, with the laundry yesterday and had caught a cold later in the night, leaving her feeling quite miserable now.

In her frustration, she managed to get up, wash the dishes, and then she tapped on the couple's bedroom door.

Her elder brother, Jason Brooks, answered the door, a noticeable scratch on his neck catching Sophie's eye.

"What's up, Sophie?"

Feeling somewhat guilty, Sophie raised her voice, saying, "Leyla mentioned her colleague's brother was a nice guy. I'm free today, so I figured I might as well go out with him."

Lately, Leyla had been quite vocal in her displeasure, mainly because Sophie had previously turned down a blind date.

So, to avoid further conflict and to spare her brother any embarrassment, Sophie decided to go along with Leyla's suggestion.

Upon hearing Sophie's decision, Leyla's demeanor instantly brightened. "Perfect! He's available today. I've already made reservations at the Moon Cafe. Better hurry!"

Sophie nodded, and then retreated to her room to grab her backpack and made her way to the Moon Cafe.

Once there, she ordered the cheapest coffee and took a seat by the window to wait.

A taxi pulled up to the coffee shop shortly after, and a tall man stepped out.

Dressed in a sleek black suit, he looked both handsome and poised, seemingly in his late twenties.

He confidently entered the coffee shop and made a beeline towards Sophie, catching her off guard.

She couldn't help but wonder how the brother of Leyla's colleague could be so handsome.

Stopping beside her, the man gave Sophie a thorough look with his piercing eyes.

"Have you brought your ID and other certificates?" he inquired.

Taken aback by the unexpected question, Sophie stood and replied honestly, "Yes."

Recently, she had been considering finding a new apartment for herself, so she had kept her certificates in her bag.

"Then let's go. We better not waste time," he said briskly.

"What? Where are we going?"

Sophie thought that perhaps her brain was processing his words too slowly due to the cold.

"To register the marriage," the man replied matter-of-factly.

"Huh?" Sophie exclaimed, stepping back in shock and losing her balance.

She toppled backwards, but the man quickly caught her, pulling her into his arms.

Pressed against his chest, Sophie could hear his steady heartbeat and smell the soothing scent from his clothes.

Her face heated up as she stammered, "Isn't this too fast?"

The man frowned and released her, looking displeased as he said, "Yes, but I thought we were on the same page, weren't we?"

Sophie bit her lip, realizing what had happened.

Leyla had already made arrangements with him so Sophie could move out quickly.

After a moment of hesitation, Sophie made a decision. Agreeing to marry him would resolve her brother's dilemma, so she resolved to go through with it.

At the City Hall.

Throughout the entire procedure, Sophie and the man hardly spoke, their interaction as cold as if they were filing for divorce rather than getting married.

After they exited the building, the man tossed a bunch of keys to Sophie.

"Leave your contact information. I'll send you the details about the house later," he said.

Sophie quickly took out her phone, and after adding her as a contact, the man departed without another word.

In the taxi, the driver addressed the man respectfully, "Mr. Hewitt, where to now?"

"Back to the company," the man responded lightly.
