Chapter 182: Chapter 182: Heard That We’re Not in Harmony (2)

Sophie Smith started to realize the severity of the consequences; she knew Asher Land’s temper well.

Take this matter as an example, if she said their relationship was not harmonious, then he would definitely make sure you say ’harmonious’ in the end.

"I was just speaking offhand, don’t take it seriously." She showed a hint of flattery on her face that even she found sickening, "I think we are quite harmonious."

"Oh, really?" He raised his eyebrows and said leisurely, "If it’s not harmonious, it’s not harmonious; I will strive to make us harmonious."

Sure enough, this was Asher Land’s way of doing things.

"How can my woman—Asher Land’s woman—not be happy?" He said with a meaningful tone.

"Me, I’m truly happy enough." Sophie Smith followed his words.

He happily curved his lips, seemingly because of their absurd conversation.

Sophie Smith rarely saw such a smile from him, comforting, warm.

Somehow, she thought of these two words.

He just quietly embraced her soft body, without any crazed action.

Asher Land was already somewhat tired, he seemed to be closing his eyes for a rest.

Recently, Golden Era’s European Headquarters was pressing hard; his father Nathan Land continuously put pressure on him. If he didn’t acquire fifty percent of Hush Sky Group’s shares within a month, the old man might transfer him back to Europe.

Hush Sky Group is one of the top large groups in the industry. Though it does not compare to Golden Era, Hush Sky operates independently, with numerous subsidiaries. It’s currently on an upward trend, acquiring fifty percent of its shares is no easy feat.

This might just be the old man’s guise; he doesn’t care whether Asher acquires it or not. Moving him back to the European Headquarters is probably the old man’s true intention.

Indeed, he had encountered a thorny issue; Sophie Smith vaguely heard a sigh, feeling somewhat puzzled.

"What’s the matter?"

"Irritated."

It turned out, he also felt irritated. Hearing him say such a word for the first time, she found it somewhat unbelievable.

After all, he was the invincible Asher Land.

In his arms, Sophie Smith slept peacefully, but Asher Land suddenly felt wide awake.

He gazed at the dear person in his arms, unable to help furrowing his brows.

How long could a relationship like theirs last? If he always refused to let her go, would she always stay by his side?

Suddenly, he felt uneasy; he had said before, nothing Asher Land wanted was unattainable. Initially, he thought she was the same; getting her was easy, but time proved everything—nothing was as simple as he thought.

If he said now to let her go, she would definitely walk away without hesitation.

The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became. He simply got out of bed directly and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

Sophie Smith turned over, the space beside her empty; her hand fluttered weakly a few times, still finding nothing, she had to open her eyes.

The bathroom door reflected his tall, solid frame; he stood there, letting the water pour over him.

For a very long time, he showed no reaction.

What was wrong with him?

"Asher Land..."

She stood outside the door, softly called his name.

Perhaps the sound of the water was too loud inside, her call didn’t elicit any response from him.

"Ash..." Before she could finish her sentence, the bathroom door suddenly opened, and a large hand pulled her over forcefully.

Sophie Smith lost her footing, her entire body was forcibly pulled into the bathroom by Asher Land.
