My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 741
Sophia looked up in shock. Really? Will he stay if I want him to?
Yet, despite the strong urge of expressing this thought to him, she could not say it out loud as Martha‘s words were like a curse haunting her.
“I–I have something to do tomorrow, so I might not be able to send you off. Otherwise, I would try to be there. I‘m serious,” said Sophia with a pout.
Arthur sighed. It seemed like he was being delusional.
“It‘s fine. You don‘t have to come since you don‘t want to see me anyway. I‘ll go back to my country and inherit the family business. After that, I‘ll find someone suitable to marry and form a family with her. Now that I think about it, it actually seems quite nice.” He acted like he had already planned out his future.
Yet, Sophia suddenly felt a bit uncomfortable as she pushed him. “Right, you‘re not young anymore. It‘s time for you to build a career and a family.”
Then, she turned around and quickly walked to the direction of her home before wiping her face.
This action made the man chase after her. Then, he gripped her wrist, pulled her in and embraced her just as she was about to reach the entrance.
This made Sophia fall onto his body. Looking up, she had a face full of tears, making her seem especially pitiful.
Right then, Arthur was feeling a bit perplexed by his own words. Why would I say that to anger her?
Somewhat upset, Sophia pushed him. “Just leave if you want to. Why are you still holding onto me?”
Without saying a single word, Arthur hugged her.
Sophia, who was full of tears by this point, buried her face in his chest out of embarrassment and sadness.
“Why are you crying? Are you that reluctant to see me leave?” Arthur teased her.
It was then Sophia heard the side door being opened and she remembered that her father had the habit of going out on walks.
In the heat of the moment, she pulled the man to a corner of the villa.
“Quickly come here. My dad‘s coming out now.”
Although Arthur did not know why they had to hide like this, he still followed her instructions and went to the corner. The moment he hid himself, he hugged her tightly.
This made Sophia blush again. Daddy just came out and here I am, hugging with some man. We‘ll be dead if he catches us!
Yet, Drake went on his usual route as she only looked up after her father had disappeared from their view.
“Alright. You should go now. If I don‘t go back home now, my mom‘s definitely going to get all anxious,” Sophia stated sternly.
Hearing this, Arthur let go of her and asked, “Are you really not going to persuade me to stay back?”
Sophia was feeling bitter at his question. It was not that she did not want him to stay back; it was that she did not have the right to do so.
Yet, she could only keep this to herself.
“Goodbye. I won‘t be seeing you off.” Sophia then turned around and entered her home after entering the door pin number.
Standing in the courtyard, she did not go to the main hall straight away. Instead, she went to a window and cried upon seeing the man drive off.
Why does it hurt so bad? We didn‘t say that we like each other nor have we confessed before. On top of that, we‘re not even lovers, so what is this pain in my chest?
On the plane.
Lorelai, who was flying long distance just after a surgery, felt lethargic. She had found the perfect seat on the plane. Even though she believed that Elliot would look for her, she hoped that it would be in five years‘ time. By that time, she promised herself that she would come back with two children who resembled him.
