Sophie’s pov

I shook my head.

He wasn’t getting it.

This was far too dangerous. We can’t go through with this.

“It wouldn’t matter if you scrap everything about me Aiden. It wouldn’t leave out the fact that we have a son to- gether. They will piece together everything and will know that I was a teen mother. What am I suppose to say when they ask why Ashton was never seen with you?” I threw up my hands in exasperation.

“Would this not ruin your reputation? Will this not-

He cuts me off.” Then we come up with a plan to make him known to the public on our terms.””

I rise to my feet, breathing out fire. “My son will not be in some gossip tabloids Aiden! I don’t want that kind of life for

him!”

Aiden’s gaze turned stormy, he was angry. “He’s my son too Sophie! I’m a CEO, the richest in New York. Every tabloid hangs off on every word I say, every move I make. It wouldn’t be long until they find out about him. He will be in the public eye no matter how much we fight this.”

“Over my dead body Aiden. Our son will have a normal life. And for your information I will not agree to be your fake fiance. You go down that rabbit hole yourself. I’ll not be doomed along with you.” I hissed and stormed my way out of his office, slamming the door on my way out.

I don’t care if he’s my boss or not. He should never have placed me in such a position that I was too dumbfounded to know better.

I ruffled my hair, not even caring that I was messing it up. Damn him for putting me in this position.

What did I expect anyway? This was Aiden we were talk- ing about.

The guy only thinks for himself and what would benefit him, not caring about the other people he’ll put in the cross- fire.
