âYouâ¦â Sophia glared murderously at Ellinor. She realized that she had no more tricks left up her sleeve to annoy Ellinor. Her eyes burned with envy as she looked at Ellinor standing with Theo.
Suddenly, a conniving grin spread across her face as she held her stomach. âEllinor, you think youâre so special because youâve given this man three kids. But guess what? I can have kids too, and right now, Iâm carrying your manâs child!â
Ellinor narrowed her eyes and scanned Sophiaâs flat stomach. âAnd how did that happen?â
Sophia shot Theo a provocative look. âWell, how do you think it happened? Your man couldnât keep his hands off me. Night after night, we went at it. How else do you think I ended up pregnant?â
Ellinor glanced at Theo.
Theoâs expression was stony. âI never touched her.âBooks Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updatesâ¦
Ellinor merely snorted and turned back to Sophia. âHe never touched you. So, what exactly are you pregnant with, Ms. Sophia? Do you take me for a fool? Before he came back to me, he was in a wheelchair. How could he have fathered a child? Even if he did touch you, it must have been you who initiated it, right?â
Sophiaâs face stiffened before she broke into laughter again. âHe was faking the wheelchair thing! How else do you think he recovered so quickly?â
Ellinor crossed her arms and stood her ground. âYes, I know he was faking it for a while, but who do you think he was pretending for, Ms. Sophia? Donât you remember? He was pretending to still need the wheelchair so you wouldnât figure out his secret and become suspicious. If he wanted to keep you in the dark about his recovery, why would he come on to you? Hmm?â
âRegardless, I am carrying his child. If you donât believe me, we can take a blood test!â
Ellinor chuckled. âAre you talking about artificial insemination, Ms. Sophia? Are you sure that the child youâre carrying is Theoâs? To my knowledge, your plans for Theo didnât exactly come to fruition that day.â
Sophiaâs eyes widened in shock as she stared at Ellinor. âYou were there that day?â
Ellinor deliberately dodged her question. She was tired of her nonsense. âEnough! Stop trying to sow discord between us. You stole three years from him, and you never won his heart. You never will. Stop deluding yourself and start worrying about the tax evasion charges against you Sophiaâs eyes narrowed in fury. âIt was you! Youâre the reason my father and I canât leave the country!â
Ellinor smiled. âNot just me. Our mutual friend, Mr. Howard, were involved as well.â
Sophia took several steps back while shaking with rage as she pointed at Ellinor. âYou⦠Youâre all so despicable!â
and your father.â
Ellinor was unfazed. âWeâre nowhere near as despicable as you. We simply exposed your actions.
Unlike you, we didnât stoop to any means necessary to keep another womanâs husband. Your father may be powerful overseas, but here, he canât help you. If you donât want to drag him down with you, turn yourself in. Admit to the tax evasion charges, and maybe youâll get a lighter sentence.â
Sophia looked like she was about to explode. âI wonât let you get away with this! Ellinor, I swear, Iâll take you down with me!â.
With that, she lunged at Ellinor like a madwoman.
But before she could reach her, Theo stepped in front of Ellinor and sent the frantic Sophia sprawling with a swift kick.
