Chapter 449 – Finding the Secret Daddy for My Baby Novel

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

It was an obvious fact that Emily liked Arthur. Other than that, they came from a similar family background, which added to the possibility of Emily becoming Arthur’s future wife.

Sophia was aware that she should keep her hopes down, but when she heard Emily playing coquetry on him, her heart felt tangled.

At this very moment, she began to feel her mind turning cloudy. She wondered whether she was suffering from carsickness, or if it was because she was drenched in the rain this afternoon.

Sensing the warmness enveloping her cheeks, she placed a hand on her face. Feeling the burning sensation under her touch, she finally realized that she was running a temperature.

“Sir, please let me off here.” Sophia turned to the side and asked the bodyguard in the driver’s seat.

The bodyguard stopped the car at the roadside according to her words. Before she left the car, she turned to the back and told Arthur, “Mr. Weiss, I can’t accompany you back to the villa. I have some matters to attend to tonight.”

Finishing her sentence, Sophia pushed the door open and alighted from the car.

Seeing that Emily made no remark about her departure while Arthur was silent, the bodyguard continued to drive on.

He made it about a hundred meters before Arthur directed an order at him. “Reverse now.”

The bodyguard was confused only for a second before he reversed the car just as the man had ordered.

Meanwhile, after alighting from the car, Sophia was feeling worse than before. As she stood under the streetlights, she waved helplessly at the passing cars, in the hopes of someone stopping to send her to the hospital.

However, her effort was fruitless as she was standing in the middle of the roadside, which was not suitable for a cab to stop.

At this moment, a black SUV rolled to a stop about ten meters away from her. The beaming light enveloped the person who alighted from the car. Arthur, who was wearing a dress shirt with embroidery, caught her in his sight and noticed her discomfort immediately.

He strode to where she stood.

Feelings of queasiness were coursing through her bloodstream. As she saw a silhouette nearing toward her, she wearingly let out a deep breath and raised her gaze at that person.

The sight made her pupils dilate.

Didn’t he leave by car?

Why did he come back to find her?

“What’s wrong?” Arthur asked in a low voice. At the same time, he saw her face flushing red, so he realized something and placed his big palm on her forehead.

The burning sensation took him aback. After wrapping her in his arms, he cursed, “Are you an idiot?”

Sophia was scolded, but why did she feel loved? “I didn’t want to trouble you guys.”

The next second, Arthur carried her in his arms and walked quickly toward the off-road vehicle.

When Emily looked back from the rearview mirror, her fingernails were about to pierce the car’s leather seat. What on earth had Sophia done to make

Arthur hold her in his arms?!

Once the door opened, Arthur said to Emily, “Take the passenger seat.”

“Why?”

“She’s sick. We’re going to the hospital.” he answered in a low voice.

She gritted her teeth with hatred in her heart. What did she have to do with Sophia’s being ill?! Why should she switch seats with Sophia?

Since Arthur’s words sounded like a command, Emily reluctantly moved to the passenger seat. Once she turned her head around, she could see Arthur holding Sophia like she was someone precious to him.

After looking for a nearby hospital, the bodyguard drove there immediately.

In the emergency room of the hospital, Arthur carried Sophia, who was suffering from a high fever. It was so bad that her body temperature soared to 104 degrees.

The doctor immediately took emergency measures to reduce her fever. On the hospital bed, Sophia was attached to a drip, which made her delicate skin even hotter and drier to touch.

While Emily waited in the car, she started to become annoyed. She wished that she would suffer from a sudden illness so that Arthur would feel bad and take care of her too.

At that moment, the bodyguard returned to the car and said to her. “Young Master Weiss wants me to take you home first.”

“What? Is he going to stay and take care of her? Why should I let Artie take care of that brat?” Emily cursed in anger.

Naturally, the man did not dare to speak, so he started the car and drove away from the hospital.

In the ward, Sophia, who was receiving a drip to reduce her fever, looked extremely fragile. Her black hair was spread out on the pillow and her skin paled red from the fever, but she was now fast asleep.

Arthur sat on the chair by the edge of the bed and rested his chin on his folded hands. His gaze landed on the sleeping Sophia, but no one knew what was going on in his mind.

Under the incandescent lamp, it seemed as if his usual aloofness was covered with a layer of warmth and tenderness. He had never shown this side of him to any outsider except for his family.

If Sophia woke up, she would see the difference in his temperament.

However, she was too exhausted and the ingredients in the IV drip were also making her drowsy.

At this moment, his phone rang, which startled him, but he quickly picked up the phone and muted it. When he glanced at the caller ID, he walked out to the corridor and answered the phone.

“Grandma!”

“I missed you so much, so I decided to bring your grandpa’s ashes back in advance. My flight will arrive tomorrow afternoon.”

“What? Tomorrow afternoon?”

“Why? Why do you sound so surprised? Don’t you miss me?” the old lady asked with a smile.

“Of course I missed you too.”

“See you at the airport tomorrow afternoon then! Come and take your grandpa back home.”

“Sure!”

After hanging up the phone, Arthur raised his brows slightly as if he suddenly recalled something embarrassing.

Sophia slept until the early morning and her fever had subsided. Apart from the drowsiness that came as a result of the high fever, she felt a little better.

The nurse who came to change her drip greeted her with a smile. “You’re awake, Miss. Your boyfriend has just left, but he will be back soon.”

After speaking, she couldn’t help looking at Sophia with envy. “Your boyfriend is really handsome.”

Sophia knew who the nurse was talking about, so she explained, “He’s not my boyfriend.”

“Oh? Does he have a girlfriend?” The nurse blurted out with extreme curiosity before realizing that it was an inappropriate question and quickly apologized, “I’m sorry for mistaking him as your boyfriend.”

In fact, the nurse also thought that the lady resting on the hospital bed with fair skin and delicate facial features was a rare beauty!
