Filed To Story: Finding the Secret Daddy for My Baby Novel
At about 11:00 PM, she heard the sound of a car, and soon, a handsome figure stepped through the door. The black suit and pants gave him a stylish yet domineering look. He looked like he had just stepped out of a magazine.
“Why are you still looking through documents?” Elliot sat down and took the documents from her hands before continuing distressingly, “It’s late. Stop working.”
At this moment, Anastasia took a whiff of him. “You reek of alcohol. How much did you drink?”
“I didn’t drink much. I’ll take a shower.” He did not want the smell to rub off on her. Although he didn’t drink much, the room reeked with the smell of alcohol and it absorbed into his clothes.
Lying in bed, Anastasia suddenly thought of her son’s birthday wish earlier. Because of the pain she had experienced during childbirth, she was under a lot of pressure. If she were to have another child, it was inevitable that she would have to experience what she endured again.
However, the kins of the Presgrave were phasing out. Thus, she was still burdened with the task of continuing their bloodline. Before she could think more about it, she saw Elliot walking out with a bath towel.
His sculpted and muscular body shone under the light, filling her with
As he lay in bed and took her into his arms, Anastasia couldn’t help but tell him about her son’s wish.
“The decision is yours to make. I won’t force you.” He leaned in to kiss her head.
“I’m fine with just Jared.” Then, Anastasia raised her head slightly and asked, “Have you ever thought about having another child?”
“I’ve thought about it. I wanted a daughter so that she could be as beautiful as you.” Elliot curled his lips into a smile. How could he not want another child? However, he was afraid that she would have to go through the pain of childbirth again and he couldn’t bear it.
She was curious as well; if she were to have a daughter, would the child look like Anastasia or Elliot?
Then, he stretched his hands slightly and looked over at her in surprise, “Honey, why didn’t you tell me?”
Anastasia immediately snorted. “Don’t you keep track of the days? How dare you ask me to tell you! Of course, I won’t!”
In a blink of an eye, he pulled her into his arms with force. “You little devil, are you trying to starve your husband?”
This was a good enough reason for him to punish her, but soon, Elliot was a little annoyed. “I forgot to buy them. I’ll call Rey-“
Just as Elliot was about to get up, Anastasia reached out to hug his neck. “Then, we don’t have to use it.”
He immediately understood what she meant and was taken by surprise. Then, he kissed her gently and asked in a hoarse voice, “Sweetheart, are you sure?”
“I am!” She had promised Jared, so she decided to try and see if she could fulfill his wish of giving him a sister on his birthday next year.
At the break of dawn, Arthur suddenly had the urge to visit Sophia’s father after waking up.
After all, he had nothing better to do.
Deciding that he wanted it to be a surprise, he did not inform her about it. He used other means to get information about Drake’s whereabouts. After all, the Goodwins’ company was in his hands.
To avoid Emily, Arthur left at about 10:00 AM to drive directly to the hospital since his bodyguard had bought him a gift in advance, so he drove directly to the hospital.
At the hospital, Drake and the rest of his family were just at the entrance as his driver was on the way to bring them to a restaurant for lunch.
As Drake couldn’t walk, he was pushed out in a wheelchair.
At this moment, a pick-up truck drove up toward them and the man who stepped out was Christopher coming to pick Sophia up. At 5 feet 7 inches, he weighed nearly 200 pounds in sportswear and his body looked plumper than ever.
His chin and neck were almost touching each other, but this did not stop him from liking beautiful women at all.
He and Sophia were classmates from junior high until they were in university. She had always been the It girl since she was young as she was beautiful. Thus, Christopher had always been dreaming of getting her.
As for Sophia’s parents, they hoped that she would be taken care of for the rest of her life. Although he was a little plump, he came from a wealthy family, so their daughter would be able to live a prosperous life in the future.
“Dad, Mom, let Uncle G take you to the restaurant first. We’ll meet you there in a bit,” Sophia said.
“Alright, we’ll get going then.”
Then, she followed Christopher into his car where he immediately acted like a gentleman. “Sophia, today is a great day for us. Come, let’s get a gift for you.”
“Let us go eat first,” she deflected. She did not want anything from him.
“You’re going to be my wife soon, and it’s only right for me to give you a gift.” Then, he drove her straight to the jewelry store. Although she had repeatedly refused the offer, he still tried to force a diamond ring on her finger.
Ultimately, she had no choice but to wear it on her ring finger. This made him grin so widely that his triple chin was on full display.
“Sophia, you’re so beautiful today. Did you know how many boys were after you back in high school? Now, I can finally call you mine,” he boasted. He had already made up his mind to bribe the media to report their wedding. That way, he would look even more imposing.
The most beautiful girl in school was now his wife, which made it extremely wonderful!
However, Sophia had no intention of being his trophy wife. She looked at the time and said, “It’s time for us to head over to the restaurant.”
Then, Christopher finally drove them toward the restaurant.
In the hospital corridor, a group of young nurses was stunned by the sight of a man in a white shirt, who became the focus of all the women. He was like a protagonist out of a novel while the two bodyguards made him appear cold and hostile with a domineering aura.
Arthur stood at the door of the ward. He stopped outside for a few seconds before he reached out to push open the door, expecting to see Sophia’s surprised face.
However, the ward was empty.
When a nurse passed by, he politely asked the nurse in a charming voice, “Excuse me, has the patient here been discharged?”
It just so happened that the nurse happened to be in charge of the ward. “Mr. Goodwin is not discharged yet,” she hurriedly answered. “He just went out for lunch. If I’m not wrong, his daughter is getting engaged today.”
At the sound of this, his dark pupils suddenly shrank. “Engaged?”
“Yes, that is correct! According to what I’ve heard, they will meet the groom’s family and discuss the engagement. Sir, are you related to him?”
“No.” The man kept his composure and gave a quick smile, but as soon as he walked away, his face looked gloomy..
How could she not tell him she was going to get engaged?
Arthur pulled out his phone and called Sophia’s number right away.
Sophia was in the car that Christopher was driving. When she heard her phone rang, she pulled it out and checked it. Once she saw who was calling, she immediately ended the call.
“Why didn’t you answer?” Christopher asked out of curiosity.
“It’s nothing important.”
At the hospital lobby, the man couldn’t believe that she had just hung up on him. When he thought about that, he gripped the phone even tighter.
“Find out where Drake’s daughter’s. engagement is,” Arthur ordered his bodyguard behind him.
