CHAPTER SIX

     Sophia's POV

I went back home very angry. Not only had Tony added a table in my office, but he also added a bed. He even changed the name of the hospital. I was very angry with him for doing what he did. 

But what could I do? He owned 50% shares in the hospital and hence he had the right to do some modification, although that wasn't what I wanted.

I knew that one day I was surely going to have my revenge on him. I was positive sure about it. 

I came out of the car and walked inside the house. 

"Sophia!" I heard my dad call, stopping me from taking another step. 

I turned to see him and his face was down. 

I suddenly had sympathy on him. 

Whatever he did, he did it for a reason justifiable enough.

"Dad!" I called back as he drew nearer.

"Princess can we talk. Please I'm__"

"Don't say it dad. I might be a freak and a devil when it comes to lashing out but I am still your daughter." I took him by the hand and made him sit on the sofa. 

"Princess. I_" He was whimpering but I shushed him.

"Dad please." I tried convincing him not to talk but he was adamant to listen.

"No princess. I hurt you so much. You are my pride and after your mom, whom I loved so much, you follow suit." He said and I shut my eyes. 

He just mentioned the one part I never wanted to remember, the one reason why I became this Sophia. 

My mom! 

She was my all in all. A woman who loved I and dad so much. She devoted herself to taking care of us. 

But what happened?? She died. 

She died a miserable wife and mother. 

Her death was a painful one. 

My dad was the only person whom I was living for. 

"Dad please. I forgive you. I have to apologize to you too, daddy. I have been a spoilt brat to you. I lashed out on you rudely. Please don't be feeling guilty. Whatever you did, you did it for a good reason. I know that for sure." I explained in whimpers. 

               Mr Devale POV

 I felt very bad at that moment, more of like I was the worst father on earth. Without thinking twice, I decided to accept a whooping offer by Senator Hartz. I made a very big mistake by agreeing to their marriage proposal. I never knew that Sophia was not going to take it lightly upon hearing about her engagement.

"If you are better now I will be off to my room." Sophia announced and left the sitting room. 

I was left to my thoughts and I. 

I made a mistake that can not be corrected. 

           Tony's POV

I walked into the bar and met them sitting at our usual behind the curtain. 

I put on my sunshades to avoid girls drooling over my looks. 

But who am I deceiving, they still fall for me. 

Only one lady never fell for me and that's Sophia, daughter of Mr Devale_ My future "bride". She's so rude and bossy, though I am rude and bossy but I'm no way near her. Her level is more than mine since she is a woman in the first place.

I walked to my friends and greeted them each with our usual handshakes.

"Hey bro." Sammie called and I gave him a smile. 

It was already late in the evening and as usual we always meet at the bar on Wednesdays. 

Sammie's girl was seated on him, but momentarily stealing glances at me.

"Hey man. You've been quiet ever since you came. Are you alright?" Zayn asked and I shook my head.

"Don't worry, Tony is perfectly fine. He's just had a hectic day at work." Sammie answered and I nodded in agreement. 

Although I was comfortable with my friends, I was uncomfortable because of the manner in which their girlfriends kept stealing glances at me. Not just that, they were licking their lips seductively as though they were sending messages to me-they actually were. I just sighed and kept minding my business because it was no new thing to me that every lady will drool over me. Not to brag but my dad gave birth to the most handsome boy in the whole planet. 

"Uhm! Guys, I have a certain problem." I snapped them out of their make-out sessions and also to prevent their girlfriends from mentioning my name when they are playing dirty. Zayn groaned angrily.

"It better be a very bad problem oh." He said and I just rolled away my eyes.

"Well it's about Sophia. You both know about my en__" 

"Sirs, will you like anything?" A female bartender interrupted me and I growled angrily.

"Yes. Will you get your stupid self away and get us a male bartender?" I calmly requested from her. 

She rolled her eyes and went away.

"You were harsh." Zayn pointed out. 

"Well," I decided to act like I didn't hear him.

"Like I was saying, you both know about my sudden engagement to Sophia."

"Your girlfriend's step sister." Sammie noted.

"Yes. That girl is a pain in the flesh. She is so rude and bossy. I really want to tame her." I told them. 

Sammie and Zayn looked at each other before shaking their headsheads.

"If you want to make her less bossy, why don't you apply the principle?" Sammie asked. I looked at him confused. 

The principle?? I thought wondering what my friends meant by the Principle... It then dawned on me as I remembered vividly the principle. I let out a cunning smile preparing myself to apply it on her. 

My friends and I brought up the principle and I intended on using it on Sophia.
