Chapter 502 – Finding the Secret Daddy for My Baby Novel

Filed To Story: Finding the Secret Daddy for My Baby Novel

This man must not be allowed to do any more harm to the Weiss Family. We must expose him!” Elliot could no longer hide his agitated emotions.

“When Artie lost his mother, he was so hurt and devastated that he decided to dedicate his life to biological studies so that his people wouldn‘t have to suffer from the same disease any longer. However, he didn‘t know that Johnny would use his life‘s work against him and make him a part of his experiment. I wish he‘d seen that coming.” Richard finished his words and looked at Elliot. “What do we do now? Should we tell Artie about it?”

“Let’s gather all the evidence we need first and expose him on his daughter‘s wedding day. That way, we could show all the guests his true colors without letting them know we‘re onto them. What do you think?” Elliot made his point.

“I guess you have a point. If Johnny knows we‘re onto them, he could destroy the experiment results and leave no evidence behind.”

As Richard continued to keep tabs on the Jennings Family, Johnny later returned home but didn‘t discuss the matter with anyone until it was 9.00PM later that night. At that moment, he brought up the matter to his wife and discussed it with her in the study.

“Johnny, Emily said the lady that Arthur met overseas is back. She also said she was very close with him, so please do something to make him forget about her completely.”

Johnny was surprised to hear that. “How is that possible? I‘ve been watching him and noticed symptoms of neurodevelopmental disorder. So, there is no way he‘ll show anyone else affection. Instead, he‘ll only behave like a robot to everyone else.”

“What about Emily? Is she going to be treated like that too, when they both get married? Is her marriage going to be destroyed if that‘s the case?”

“Don‘t worry. I‘m working on creating some fake memories of him and Emily. By then, he is going to love her very dearly.”

“Really? Are you sure this is going to work?”

“My experiment will soon be a success as soon as both of them get married. So, Emily won‘t have to wait much longer before she is going to have the happy life I’m going to give her.”

“It looks like I‘m going to have to drive Sophia away from the family to keep Arthur from ever thinking about her again. If we don‘t put a stop to it, there is no telling when she‘ll ruin Emily‘s wedding.”

When Richard heard that, he knitted his eyebrows, thinking it was perhaps time to remind his good friend about the imminent danger. Therefore, he decided to help Arthur win back the heart of the woman he loved and left an anonymous note behind. When Arthur returned later, he saw a note on the desk and picked it up to take a closer look at it. ‘Sophia is in grave danger. Please protect her at all costs, or you‘re going to regret it!

Upon reading the note, Arthur couldn‘t help but feel stunned by the person who wrote the anonymous note because he couldn‘t understand why Sophia would be in danger. Nevertheless, he was quickly reminded of the strange incident that happened earlier that day when Sophia fell off the horse at the turf club. Is someone plotting against her?

At that moment, Arthur‘s mind was flooded with images of Sophia‘s face just as he recalled something he had just discovered earlier. I just asked. The reason Sophia will show up during my wedding is that he is the assistant of my friend, Elliot, but why would someone take an assistant like her to the turf club and let her ride a crazy horse? She may be dumb, but I doubt she is so foolish that she‘d put her life at risk. At the thought of that, Arthur looked back at the note one more time, his eyebrows frowning as he slowly began to recognize Richard‘s handwriting.

Wait a second. This looks like that fella‘s handwriting. Is this from him? Because of that, he reckoned it was necessary to take the matter seriously, or Richard wouldn‘t have left him a warning like that so suddenly. Well, if I‘m going to protect Sophia, I guess the only way to do that is to keep her by my side all the time. If I can watch her all the time, she should be safe. Soon, Arthur stepped out the door and summoned his butler, whom he ordered to arrange a room for Sophia next to his.

“Is there any specific reason, Young Master Weiss?” the butler asked in surprise.

“Nothing. I‘d like to have a word with her about something in the next few days. “Arthur finished his words and retreated to his own room before the butler ordered the maid to tidy up the guest room next to his. After that, he headed upstairs to fetch Sophia down to her new room.

In the meantime, Sophia was spaced out in the room, her eyes still tearful because she had just cried for no good reason not long ago. However, the doorbell outside her room suddenly rang, whereupon she limped toward the door and opened it. Then, she was greeted by a man in a classic suit and curiously asked him his purpose of visit. “How may I help you?”

“Miss Sophia, we‘re getting a new room, so please pack your luggage and belongings.”

“Um. Why is that so? I‘m good with this room.” Sophia refused to impose on anyone.

“I have orders from Young Master Weiss.” The butler smiled at Sophia.

Sophia‘s smile stiffened for a few seconds when she heard what the butler said. Wher? It‘s Arthur‘s idea? Where is he taking me? Am I causing so much disturbance to him that he wants to get rid of me?

Filled with that bitter thought in her head, Sophia braced herself to accept the harsh truth that she didn‘t deserve to attend Arthur‘s wedding, anyway. Therefore, she had nothing to say, thinking he wanted her gone. “Alright, please give me a moment.” Sophia then limped into the room, but when the butler saw that, he quickly ordered the maids to come and help her.

After Sophia took care of her luggage, the maids carried them out of the room for her while the butler came back to her with a wheelchair. “Miss Goodwin, please sit in this wheelchair. It should make it easier for you.”

“Thank you very much, sir.” Sophia was embarrassed.

As soon as Sophia sat in the wheelchair, the butler wheeled her out the door all the way to the garden. When Sophia looked in the direction in which the butler was wheeling her, she was stunned to see the manor‘s main building instead of the guest room beside it. Upon that realization, she couldn‘t help but ask herself where the butler was taking her. Soon, they arrived at the elevator, which they took to reach a room on the fourth floor. At the sight of the grand–looking interior, the lady was left with her jaw wide open. Wait a minute! This place looks so magnificent that it is meant for the owner to live in, not the guests. Sophia then looked around her until her gaze fell upon a man sitting on the couch.

As the evening sunlight shone on him, he seemed especially charming and handsome, especially in his white button–down paired with a plaid vest. At the same time, the fact that he was crossing his legs in his sitting posture only served to make him look even more attractive. Isn‘t that Arthur? At that instant, Sophia‘s heart was beating rapidly like a jackhammer as she suddenly realized that was what happened every time she saw the man.

Soon, Arthur stood up and walked up to the butler, taking over the wheelchair, whereupon he wheeled the lady to her new room. “Wait a second! What‘s going on? Why am I moving to this room?” Sophia looked up, asking Arthur with a surprised voice.

“Your leg is injured, so it‘s more convenient for you to be taken care of staying here.” Arthur brushed her off with an excuse,

Sophia shook her head and replied, “No need for that. I’ll be fine in a matter of days with enough rest. So, I should probably return to the guest room without imposing on you.”

Nevertheless, Arthur soon wheeled her into the room and responded with a commanding voice, “My house, my rules.”

“B–But… wouldn‘t this be inappropriate, considering the fact that you‘re about to marry Miss Jennings? I can‘t be staying here with you, can I? What if she misunderstands the situation…?” Although Sophia was tempted to stay close to Arthur, she didn‘t want to ruin his reputation.

“I‘ll explain to her if she misunderstands.” Arthur finished his words, but when he noticed her still sitting in the wheelchair, he asked, “Are you going to try and walk yourself? Or do you need me to carry you from the wheelchair?”

“I‘m going to walk by myself.” Sophia finished her words and held the armrests on both sides of the wheelchair, desperate to show the man that she could take care of herself, only to be tripped by the armrests.

“Ah…” Staggering, she fell forward and instinctively hugged the thing that she thought would make her feel most secure–Arthur‘s waist. At the same time, the man also extended his arms and wrapped them around her to make sure she wouldn‘t get hurt from the fall.

The next second, Sophia found her head resting on Arthur‘s firm chest. As she could hear his steady heartbeat, her heartbeat was somehow raised by a few BPMs. Great! I oversold my mobility and ended up in his awkward embrace. “Thank you.” Sophia then quickly stood up, backing away from Arthur with her cheeks blushing bashfully.

Meanwhile, Arthur looked down at her, somehow finding Sophia‘s face strangely attractive as he simply couldn‘t take his eyes off her. He then seized her arm and helped her walk to the couch, where he sat her down. When Sophia sank into the couch, she heaved a sigh of relief and looked at the man. “I‘m fine now, so you may leave and attend to your own business.”

Upon hearing the lady‘s words, Arthur walked away while the maids stayed behind to tidy her luggage and place her clothes in the wardrobe. Soon, when the maids were finally gone, the room was back to its peaceful state, with Sophia left sitting on the couch in a bitter manner. Deep down, she could sense the man‘s feelings for her even though he appeared to have forgotten about her.
