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

Emily was suddenly beside herself with rage when she looked at how feeble Sophia was while taking the IV fluid. At that, she raised her palm and gave the feverish woman a hard slap in the face.

By the time Sophia registered what had just happened, her face was already burning with pain, and she glared at Emily like she was going to tear her apart at any moment. “Who are you to slap me?!”

“Who am I? Just wait, Sophia Goodwin.

Once I marry Artie, you can forget about stepping on Florian land ever again!” Emily yelled with a sneer. “You can forget about ever seeing him for the rest of your life. He will be my man from this day on.. Mine! Not yours!”

Just then, the door flew right open, and an icy male voice came the next second. “What right does she need?”

Emily froze in an instant, and her countenance turned awful, but the next second, she was all smiles as she turned around. “Artie, you’re back! You must’ve misheard. I heard Miss Goodwin was sick, so I came to see how she was doing.”

Meanwhile, Sophia kept her head lowered, allowing her long hair to conceal her swollen cheek as she clenched the covers. Seeing how two-faced Emily was got her feeling bitterly disappointed. Is Arthur going to have to live with a woman like this for the rest of his life? How can he spend the rest of his life with a phony woman when he’s such a great guy? Will he be happy? Will his life be merry?

Sophia tightened her grip on the covers as the idea crossed her mind, so much so that her body began trembling to a slightly noticeable degree.

“Artie, let’s go to the chapel! Everyone’s anxiously waiting for our appearance!” Emily held Arthur’s arm, wanting to take him away.

However, Arthur suddenly turned to Sophia, asking, “Are you going to be okay?”

Before Sophia could say a word, Emily answered for her. “She told me she’s fine just now. Well, Miss Goodwin, we won’t disturb your rest further. Get well soon, sweetie!”

Sophia closed her eyes and took a deep breath before looking back up, asking Arthur, “Do your words just now still stand? Will you really be able to do it if I say yes?”

Arthur’s eyes widened slightly in response, and he swung his hand free from Emily’s grasp, dashing to the bed to check Sophia’s face.

But Sophia couldn’t care less about her face right then. She latched her gaze upon Arthur with misty and firm forbearing eyes.

“What are you talking about, Sophia?! What promise do you want Artie to fulfill?” Emily asked out of curiosity as she stomached her anger.

“Your face…”

“Ignore that. Answer me, still stand?” do your words

“They stand.” Arthur riveted his gaze on her.

“Alright, you have my word. I’ll break up with my boyfriend, and you’ll have to give up marrying this woman.” Sophia pointed right at Emily. “She’s not worthy of you.”

Emily instantly turned crimson with rage. She finally lost it and snapped at Sophia. “What nonsense are you talking about, Goodwin?! How dare you say I’m unworthy of Artie!”

“How dare I? You’re phony, savage, ill bred, and wicked. I won’t let you marry him and taint his life. You don’t deserve him.” As feeble as Sophia was, her words weighted multitudes, hitting home.

Arthur was stumped for a few solid seconds, listening to her words with incredulity. “You’re the one who slapped her?” He turned his head to Emily.

Frightened, Emily took a couple of steps back upon meeting Arthur’s sub-zero gaze. “Artie, I… I didn’t mean to. I was just so upset she ruined our wedding…”

“Who are your to slap her?!” The anger beneath Arthur’s eyes burned ablaze.

This was the first time in many days that Emily was seeing such an emotional Arthur. In fact, his emotions fluctuated all because of Sophia, and she couldn’t help feeling appalled at that. Impossible! Dad’s serum had long made him forget Sophia! How can he still care so much for that b*tch?! Also, isn’t he suffering from sequela?

“Artie, I’m sorry. I’ll apologize to her. Let’s go to the chapel now! Everyone must be anxious by now.” Emily reached her hand out to hold his arm.

However, upon meeting his icy glare, she shrunk in fear and took a step back, causing her to trip and fall upon stepping on the hem of her gown.

Emily made herself look pitiful by holding her waist and crying out in pain, hoping Arthur would feel bad for her and help her up.

However, to her dismay, the man’s whole attention was on Sophia’s face. His heart ached to see her gorgeous face swollen.

It’s all my fault. Emily wouldn’t have had the chance to lay a finger on Sophia if he had stayed..

Sophia, on the other hand, looked indifferently at the pretentious woman on the floor, wondering how long she was going to continue her act.

Sure enough, Emily was done acting, after which she propped her hands against the floor to stand up. After a quick fix on her gown, she turned to Arthur. “Artie, I’m sorry, I really am.” With that, she took a deep breath and said to Sophia, “Miss Goodwin, please accept my utmost sincere apology. Please forgive my rudeness.”

“But I don’t want to forgive you.” Sophia glared at her. What she hated wasn’t the slap Emily had given to her face but this woman’s pretentiousness in front of Arthur.

If Arthur was to marry a gracious young woman on this day, she would be willing to give them her blessing. However, be it upbringing or integrity, neither did Emily have to be worthy of him. So Sophia didn’t care, even if she became the villain who ruined their wedding.

She couldn’t let the man she loved so deeply spend the rest of his life with a woman like Emily. He definitely wouldn’t be happy.

“What else do you want from me, Sophia Goodwin? Just how shameless can you get? Artie’s my fiancé; that’s a fact!” Emily had truly lost it this time. She could no longer get a hold of her emotions, even when Arthur was present.

Hearing that, Sophia scoffed, “He’s your fiance? Have you slept with him before? Let me tell you something. I’ve slept with him for a month.”

Her words not only made Emily go mad it had also puzzled Arthur. He couldn’t believe what she said and stared at her wide-eyed. What is she talking about? I’ve slept with her before? He tried to recall his memory, but nothing came to his mind. Darn it, how could I forget something like that?

“Is that true?” he stared at Sophia and asked.

“Artie, it’s not true. She is lying to you and sputtering nonsense. Both of you were never together.”

“There’s a red mole on your inner thigh,” Sophia looked at Arthur and replied calmly.

Arthur was shocked when he heard that as it was located very near to his crotch. How did she know? Turns out we really have slept together!

“W-What are you talking about? You must be making things up.” Emily was furious and hated to see how calm and confident Sophia was. She almost lost it when she found out that both of them had done the deed when they were together.

“Tell her if what I said was true.” Sophia glanced at him.

“Why did you only tell me that we’ve slept together now? Then why did you reject me last night?” Arthur was flustered as he was trying to make sense of the situation.

The additional information revealed by Arthur was caught on by Emily. She glared at Sophia and exclaimed, “Sophia, you really are trying to seduce Arthur. You promised my mother that you would not stand in our way, but it turns out you’re lying!”

Upon hearing that, Sophia was speechless. He looked at Arthur and then shifted her gaze at Emily. “Excuse me. He was the one trying to seduce me, but I rejected him.”

Arthur had had enough of how hysterical Emily was, as it ruined the mood between him and Sophia. “You should leave now!” he chided her.

“Arthur, where else could I go? There are hundreds of guests waiting for us at the wedding.” Emily couldn’t hold her tears in anymore and wailed as she buried her face in her hands.

“Our wedding is canceled,” Arthur uttered cold-heartedly.

Upon hearing that, Emily almost passed out and exploded, “You’re not going to marry me? Then are you going to marry her?”

Sophia was stunned at how the situation developed. She didn’t know how she should face him in the future after ruining his wedding.
