Sophie and Jack found themselves seated in the sleek, futuristic car.

Sophie's eyes widened in awe as she glanced around, taking in the marvel of the high-tech vehicle, her mouth slightly agape.

Concern etched across her face, she turned to Jack and voiced her worries, her tone carrying a trace of anxiety.

"You know, you shouldn't have spent so much money on this," she cautioned, her concern for their financial well-being evident in her voice.

Jack met her worried gaze with a gentle smile, a reassuring glimmer in his eyes.

He appreciated her practicality and her genuine concern for their future.

His response was heartfelt, tinged with gratitude. "Thank you," he expressed sincerely, his voice resonating with warmth.

Sophie raised an eyebrow, her curiosity piqued by his unexpected gratitude. "Thank you for what?" she inquired, her tone laced with intrigue.

A tender smile adorned Jack's face as he gazed at her, his eyes reflecting his deep affection and appreciation.

"For coming tonight," he replied softly, his words carrying a weight of gratitude for her presence in his life.

Sophie felt a warm, fluttering sensation blossom within her chest upon hearing his words.

His simple expression of gratitude touched her deeply, reinforcing the bond they shared.

As Jack skillfully maneuvered the Tesla through the illuminated streets, their surroundings bathed in the warm glow of street lamps, he turned his attention to Sophie, contemplating their lunch options.

His eyes sparkled with an idea.

"You know, there's this incredible Michelin-star restaurant nearby," he suggested, his voice filled with excitement, as he subtly hinted at the possibility of a lavish dining experience.

Sophie's immediate response was to dismiss the idea, voicing her aversion to expensive cuisine. "I don't like expensive food."

She shook her head, instinctively guarding against any unnecessary splurging.

Undeterred, Jack sought to understand her preferences, a playful smile playing on his lips.

"So, what do you like then?" he inquired, genuinely curious about her tastes.

After a moment of contemplation, Sophie's thoughtful response emerged, revealing a more modest preference. "Hmm... maybe just a pizza," she suggested, opting for a simpler and more familiar choice.

Jack couldn't help but chuckle at her answer, fully aware that her initial rejection of extravagant dining stemmed from her concern for his spending habits.

He admired her down-to-earth nature and appreciated her consideration.

"Alright, let's go for a pizza then," he agreed warmly, his desire to indulge her overriding his initial plans for an upscale restaurant.

He adjusted his course accordingly, determined to make her happy.

Deep down, Jack cherished the thought of treating Sophie to a luxurious dining experience, but her contentment and comfort mattered more to him than any extravagant gesture.

As they glided through the vibrant city lights, Jack couldn't help but catch a fleeting glimpse of Sophie's eyes lingering on a particular shop.

He noticed a spark, a glimmer that danced within her gaze, capturing his attention.

It was a luxurious clothing boutique, adorned with exquisite displays that beckoned passersby to explore its offerings.

Jack made a mental note of the shop, recognizing the flicker of interest in Sophie's eyes, a desire that he stored away for future reference.

Their journey continued, and before long, they found themselves parked near a bustling pizza place, ready to indulge in a delectable feast.

The aroma of freshly baked pizza filled the air, heightening their anticipation.

Seated at a cozy table, their mouths watered as they beheld the giant, steaming pizza before them.

Jack's eyes caught a small smudge of pizza sauce lingering at the corner of Sophie's lips, and a mischievous smile curved his lips.

In a playful gesture, Jack gently reached out, his finger lightly brushing against the stain, removing it with a tender touch. "Eat properly," he teased, his voice filled with affectionate admonishment, his playful act mirrored by a subtle lick of his own finger.

A delightful blush tinted Sophie's cheeks, her heart skipping a beat at his intimate gesture.

"My, mom and I are thinking of selling the house and coming to live in the city near my college," Sophie said suddenly.

Jack remembered her talking about this before and nodded.

"Ok, sell it to me then." He said.

"You wanna buy our house?" Sophie raised her brow.

"Yes, I have been earning decent money, investing in some companies, I think I can buy a house. And later when you become a doctor then you can buy it from me again."

Jack knew the sentimental value Sophie held to her house.

Sophie took in a deep breath and gave it a moment.

She then nodded, it was better that the house goes to Jack than anyone else.

"If you want to then I will be grateful." She said.

Jack smiled and pulled out a cheque from the under-pocket of his coat.

He has prepared this check before he left his apartment. He was determined to help her.

"Here, I hope this will be enough for the house."

Sophie looked at the check and raised her brows, "You prepared this in advance? How did you know that I still wanted to sell the house?"

She asked, however soon Realization dawned upon her when she saw the amount of money in the cheque.

Her heart raced and tears formed in her eyes. She remembered that Jack wanted to help her before, however, this money was too much.

"Two million?" Her voice quivered in disbelief. "I can't take this much money!!"

Overwhelmed by the immense gesture, she instinctively pulled her hand back, hesitant to take the cheque.

Her gratitude and admiration for Jack intensified, realizing the depth of his care and commitment to her well-being.

"Take it. Think of it as an Investment, when you become a doctor, I will not give a single dime for a checkup." Jack chucked.

"Shut up...! You think I will take money from you?" Sophie retorted.

"Who knows..." Jack wanted to say something, however, he suddenly felt a kiss on his lips.

He could see tears falling from her eyes as she kissed him.

As she backed up more and more tears started falling from her eyes. She can't seem to stop them.

Jack moved his chair towards her and sat beside her, his hand resting over her shoulder.

"Does my kiss taste so bad that you started crying?"

"Hmph!" She wiped the tears with both her hands.

Her nose was red as she looked at Jack.

She was burdened by a lot of problems, related to her mother's health conditions and even her financial conditions.

To Sophie, the overwhelming emotions and the sudden turn of events felt almost surreal, as if she were trapped within a vivid dream.

The weight of her struggles seemed to blur the lines between reality and fantasy, creating a sense of fragility and vulnerability within her.

As she gazed into Jack's eyes, she couldn't help but fear that this beautiful moment, filled with his unwavering support and love, would slip away like the wisps of a fading dream.

Sensing Sophie's unstable emotions, Jack gently squeezed her hand, his touch offering a comforting reassurance.

"Let's go back," he suggested, his voice filled with understanding.

He recognized that in moments of emotional turmoil, being with her mother would provide Sophie with a sense of comfort and familiarity.

As much as Jack desired to stay with her overnight, he knew that prioritizing her well-being meant ensuring she had the support she needed from her family.

Sophie nodded and both of them moved out of the pizza place in the car.

"Don't tell Meadow that I gave this money to you." Jack reminded her.

He knew that Meadow would never accept such an amount of money from him, she was even more prideful than Sophie.

And he was sure that if she found out about it, she would also tell his father and will give the cheque to him.

Jack didn't want that to happen, he wants Sophie to live a life without any worries.

"How will I hide the fact?" She asked, she knew that her mom would soon find out about the exorbitant amount of money she was gonna spend on her college and the future hospital fees.

"What fact? Didn't a rich guy buy the house from you?" Jack said with a knowing smile.

Although he knew that it would be hard to fool Meadow, he place the responsibility on Sophie.

She knew Meadow more than him and if anyone could fool her, it would be her.

"That's a stupid Idea..." Sophie said and then clinched the cheque in her hand. "I have to figure out something else." She murmured.

Jack smiled and nodded.

Soon his car stood a block behind their houses and Jack dropped Sophie off.

Sophie gave him a final kiss and moved toward her house, as she was about to enter the main gate she turned around and looked at the car still standing there.

A warm smile formed on her face and she gave a flying kiss.

After leaving her, Jack moved back to his apartment and saw that Caseie was still sleeping.

Changing into comfortable clothes he spooned her and went to sleep.

The next day he woke up before Cassie and prepared some coffee.

"You sleep like a baby." Jack chucked as he handed her the coffee.

"When did I fall asleep?" She took the coffee in her hand.

"You said you like hugging me and fell asleep," Jack said with a mischievous smile.

Cassie clicked her tongue in cringe when she heard his words.

"I never said that!" She stood up and started placing clothes on her body.

"You even said that you would die without my dick." Jack lied a bit.

Cassie's eyes widened at his blatant lie.

"You!! I never said something so absurd!"

"Don't try to lie now," Jack replied.

"Me?! Lying?! You are the biggest liar in this world." She moved and was about to punch him instinctively.

"Ok, Ok... Don't be a brute, let's go to college." Jack said while dodging her punch.

"I am planning to go meet Meadow and Sophie, I won't be going to college today." She was still annoyed by his previous words.
