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

“Silly girl, now that the necklace is gone, where are you going to find it? How are you going to take responsibility? It’s obvious that the necklace is important to him, and now he’s going to be even angrier.”

“Dad, Mom, don’t say it’s gone yet. I can still look for it.” Sophia had already called her friend and asked her to look for it in the hotel.

Sophia then hoisted her suitcase upstairs, intending to look through it. She had just carried the suitcase to the stairs when her cat suddenly pounced over, frightening her so much that her hands jolted, and the suitcase rolled down from the second floor. With a few thumps, the zipper flew open, causing all of her clothes and belongings to scatter across the ground, one of which rolled into the corner of the storage box under the stairs where even the dim light couldn’t hide its extraordinary shine. It just so happened to be the necklace.

“Baby, you almost scared me to death.” She picked up her pet cat and scolded it before she went downstairs to pick up her things. After returning upstairs, she tidied her belongings and looked for the necklace. Sure enough, it wasn’t there. She was extremely worried. If she didn’t find it soon, she would be doomed.

Just then, her phone rang. She took a glance at the unknown number and answered the call. “Hello? Who is this?”

“Your dad is out. Ten minutes later, I’ll come over to retrieve my things. A cold male voice spoke to her from the other end.

“Um, you shouldn’t come over. The necklace isn’t with me. I left it overseas.” Sophia could only lie to him in order to hold him back..

“Say what?! As expected, his voice turned angry.

“I promise you that I’ll definitely bring it back. Can you give me some time?” She attempted to bargain.

“Sophia Goodwin, do you have a death wish?” The man on the other end of the phone finally lost his patience and burst out in fury.

Sophia immediately put the phone a little further away from her ear, and when the other end finally stopped talking, she said, “Do you want to get it back or not? If you want it, give me some time.”

“Where did you leave it? I’ll send someone to pick it up.”

“No, I’m scared you’d continue to hurt my dad when you get it back, so I won’t hand it over within a year,” Sophia said bravely.

“Are… Are you saying that I can only get it back a year later?” He was clearly asking her through gritted teeth.

“Yes, so you’d better be more patient,” she replied.

Just then, Sophia heard the sound of a car as the other end hung up the phone. Then, she soon saw Arthur again in the living room. Though her house was huge, as soon as this man came in, it was as if the air turned still, making it difficult to breathe. Even Drake and Emma were a little afraid of him.

“Young Master Weiss, please take a seat and have a drink,” Drake said ingratiatingly, as if he were hosting an esteemed guest.

Arthur’s cold and sharp eyes shot straight at Sophia as he demanded, ‘Let’s talk alone.”

Sophia pointed to her father’s study and said, “Let’s talk in the study.

Hence, the two of them went in together, leaving the worried Drake and Emma outside. This young man was clearly a handful at first glance. Could their daughter really have a good chat with him? Would he hit her instead?

In the study, Sophia locked the door before turning to look at the standing man. “Mr. Weiss, do you agree to my request from earlier?” “No.” Arthur gritted his teeth and looked. at her icily. “I want to see my necklace now.”

“Then, you leave me with no choice. I won’t give it to you now. Sophia crossed her arms and looked at him, her head spinning rapidly with thoughts. She knew very well that his necklace would never be found again. Anyone would pick up such a beautiful item if they saw it, and it would either be sold to the second-hand market or be kept by them. However, how could she quell this man’s anger now?

When cornered, there was no limit to a person’s intelligence, and a plan instantly came to Sophia’s mind. If this man liked her one day, wouldn’t he forgive her and stop pursuing the matter? Although this method came at a price, in order to protect her family, she had no other choice. Hence, Sophia had to make the man in front of her fall in love with her and forgive her, then let go of her family.

Arthur narrowed his eyes at her as she sized him up, as if she was coming up with an ill-intentioned plan.

Seeing through her thoughts, he immediately sneered and said, “I’m not interested in you, so you’d better not get any ideas about me.”

“How about this? For a year. I’ll pledge myself and stay by your side and be your maid. After a year, I will return the necklace to you. What do you think? It’s a good deal, isn’t it?” Sophia raised her small head and asked.

Arthur felt annoyed that this woman had taken possession of his things and did not return them, but she was still being so righteous about it.

“Give it back to me, and I promise not to touch your family.’ Arthur didn’t bother to answer her and just wanted to retrieve his belongings and leave. He was not interested in her at all.

‘I said that I’ll only return it in a year. If you don’t want me to be your maid, that’s okay. See you in a year, then!” Saying that, Sophia pursed her red lips. How dare this man look down on me?

As if her words struck a raw nerve in him, Arthur suddenly gritted his teeth and said, “Fine. If you’re offering yourself, I won’t hold back either. As my maid, you’ll have to be by my side at all times. Do you have what it takes?”

Sophia’s eyes flashed with victory. She wanted to get close to him and spend time with him, then find the opportunity to make him fall in love with her and finally forgive her for losing his belongings.

“There’s nothing that I’m afraid of,” Sophia boasted proudly.

A glint of cruelty flashed past Arthur’s eyes. It was true that he would be letting her off easy if he let her go now, so he had to keep her by his side and give her a hard time to vent his anger.

“Pack your belongings and follow me.” As soon as Arthur said that, he walked outside.

“Would it be possible for you to give me two days off?” Sophia asked him from behind.

The man retorted in an icy tone, “No.”

Sophia sighed, realizing that she will have to put in a lot of effort to please this man. The only thing she can do right now is to keep him from getting angry, given her current situation.

She took down her unpacked suitcase from her room and told her parents, “Don’t worry, Mom and Dad, I’m going on a trip. You should enjoy your time together and wait for my return.”

“You’re leaving again, Sophia; where are you going?” With a worried expression on her face, Mrs. Goodwin questioned as she held her daughter.

Sophia assured her mother, “Don’t worry, Mom, I’ll be fine.”

“Is this what Mr Weiss means when he says he wants you to be responsible, and where is he taking you?” a worried Drake

Goodwin questioned.

“No, Young Master Weiss is not an evil man. He said that he wishes to accompany me while I search the area where I had lost it. You may just wait for me at home, and maybe we will find it together,” she murmured softly.

After hearing these words, her parents felt relieved and hoped that they could get it back and appease Young Master Weiss.

She took her suitcase with her and left. Her parents got out of the house to watch her get into the car, but they were still too worried.

At this very moment, the pendant in the storage room beneath the staircase was emitting a resentful glow. Even though its owner had been here for a while, he had ignored it and left.

Sophia hadn’t slept for about thirty hours after hearing about her father’s incident. She dozed off out of weariness as soon as she got into the seat.

They arrive at a bar where Arthur Weiss has established it as his personal hangout spot. An exquisite master bedroom was built on the second floor just for his stay.

The bodyguard got out of the car and opened the back seat door to find the girl sleeping soundly. “Master, she’s asleep,” he informed the man who had exited from the other vehicle.

Arthur found the girl sleeping in the backseat as he approached the car. He was furious yet again. How is it that she could go to sleep after all?
