The Indifferent Ex-Husband Heartstrings in the Mall of Fate

Chapter 314

Sophia suddenly froze in her tracks.

Daniel continued, "Or is it some kid you've got with someone else out there?"

Sophia gathered herself, stood up to close the office door, and then made her way to the floor-to-ceiling window farthest from the door. In a cool tone, she asked him, "And how is that any of your business?"

"It's about the reputation of the Crawley family, about the next generation of the Crawleys. And you are asking if it concerns me?" Daniel's voice also took on an icy edge.

Sophia couldn't quite grasp the meaning behind Daniel's words, her grip on her phone tightening. She kept quiet, waiting for him to finish.

"No matter whether that child is Brandon's or not, our family won't acknowledge her. The Crawley family doesn't accept illegitimate kids," Daniel stated. "So, forget about using your kid to get back to the family. Once you're divorced, that should be the end of it. Brandon will get married, have his own family, his own kids, and they will all be legitimate. You're a woman, a mother. How would you feel if one day your husband suddenly had a love child?"

Sophia laughed in annoyance, "And what if I do what you just said, can you do anything about it? Daniel, right now it's your son who can't seem to let go of me."

Daniel's voice inadvertently rose, then he struggled to keep it down, "As long as I'm alive, I won't let you or your daughter through our doors. Over my dead body will either of you step foot in our house."

Sophia just smirked, not bothering to argue.
