The CEO's Empathy Pregnancy Pains

Chapter 438 Trouble Far from Over

"What's up with that Sophia? Can you fill me in? Relax, I'm not trying to stir the pot. It's just that I've noticed she's been hanging around my brother Dean a lot lately. He's my only family, and he's still young and naive. He doesn't know much about Emerald City."

Archibald was setting the stage to get Emily to open up.

Emily caught on to his intentions.

After a moment of thought, she decided to be straightforward with him.

"I get it, and I understand. Her last name is Brown. You're smart, so you probably guessed some of it already. She's my half-sister, my father's illegitimate daughter with another woman."

Archibald snorted in response. "No wonder."

"What do you mean, 'no wonder'?" Emily was puzzled by his reaction. She looked at Archibald, who seemed visibly angry.

Was there more to the story?

"She doesn't act like a lady from a wealthy family. Look at her, always clinging to Dean like she's afraid someone will see her. She has no class at all.

"Sneaking around like that is disgraceful! Even if I didn't disapprove as his brother, my parents would never have allowed their beloved youngest son to mix with a woman like her!"

Hearing Archibald's harsh words, Emily realized he must have noticed the tension between her and Sophia. Otherwise, he wouldn't dare speak so ill of Sophia.

"So... is Dean dating Sophia?" Emily took the opportunity to ask the question that had been on her mind.

Archibald turned the steering wheel, making a sharp turn, and replied with frustration.

"How could he? I just pulled him aside to ask him that. He swore to me that Sophia is just someone he met while having fun. She likes to stick around him, but he has no interest in her. It's never serious.
