The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 109 I'll Be the Child's Father

"Hey, Abigail! Spill it, who's the seductive woman?" Sophia was fuming at Abigail's words.

She was about to grab Abigail and demand an explanation, but Abigail bolted so fast she vanished in seconds.

Sophia was so mad she nearly twisted her ankle and fell, thanks to her high heels. She muttered a curse under her breath and looked up to see Michael glaring at her with a dark expression. That look, like he wanted to eat her alive. At that moment, Sophia realized she might've gone too far earlier. She blinked guiltily and put on her best pitiful face. She figured if she played dumb like before, Michael wouldn't blame her.

But this time, Michael's face stayed unusually grim. "Why do you have to make things hard for Emily? She's your biological sister, after all."

Hearing this from Michael, Sophia was shocked. In the past, Michael hated any association with Emily, seeing her as bad news. How had things changed now?

Unable to react immediately, Sophia took the chance to play the victim again with Michael. "Michael, I know she's my sister. I also know how her mom seduced my dad and secretly had this illegitimate child. I remember it all clearly!" "If it weren't for her and her mom, my mom and I wouldn't have suffered so much! Mom wouldn't have been mistaken for a mistress, and I wouldn't have been dragged into this mess for so long! Michael, what did I do to deserve this? I'm the rightful daughter of the Brown family!" Sophia said, tears streaming down her face.

Sophia's acting skills were top-notch. In no time, she had Michael feeling sorry for her, and he had no choice but to hold her in his arms to comfort her.

Meanwhile, Emily sat in the passenger seat, coldly staring out the window, replaying everything that had happened at the Japanese restaurant.

Daniel, who was driving, and Abigail in the back seat kept exchanging glances in the rearview mirror.

"Emily, are you okay?" Abigail finally broke the silence.

she didn't care about Sophia's actions. She disliked pointless competitions and was tired of Michael's cold attitude. Daniel began to reflect on himself. Maybe from the start, he should have protected Emily and left. There was no need to argue with such despicable people, and then there wouldn't have been so many endless confrontations.
