Pampered By Billionaires After Betrayal

Chapter 127 I Understand You

In the VIP room. Nathan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, saying nothing. The atmosphere in the entire VIP room dropped to freezing point, and the air pressure seemed to decrease. Sophia waved her hand at the makeup artists, saying, "You guys can leave now." Nathan still didn't react, his hands in his pockets, staring out the window with a dark expression. "Nathan..." Sophia walked over with a glass of water. "Have some water? There’s no humidifier in this room, the air is too dry." Nathan didn't take the water, not even bothering to give her a glance, and his tone was harsh, "I don't want it." Sophia's hand trembled slightly. She forced a smile and, feeling a bit dejected, returned to her seat. "Are you still thinking about seeing Emily? If you want to go, then go." At the mention of Emily, Nathan finally reacted. He snapped back, questioning her, "Did you do this on purpose?" "What?" "Don't play dumb. You said Chloe invited you to this concert and then forced me to come with you. You even contacted so many reporters. Sophia, don't think I don't know what you're planning. Don't play tricks in front of me." Sophia's face turned pale, her smile fading. "Today is the first show of Lucas's tour. It's normal for there to be a lot of reporters..." "Lucas is a celebrity. Tell me, why would reporters from a financial magazine be here?" Nathan sneered. "Could you at least come up with a better lie?" Sophia took a deep breath. When she left the house today, Grace had advised her to control her temper no matter what happened. Now, getting married was the highest priority. She couldn't have another conflict with Nathan. And Grace had given her an idea. Thinking of Grace's idea, Sophia's attitude softened. "Nathan, I actually understand. The person you like is Emily; that hasn't changed." "It's good that you understand it." Nathan rolled his eyes.Sophia smiled and stepped closer. "I've thought it over. This isn't fair to you. You like Emily, but you have to marry me, which must make you unhappy. I love you, so I don't want you to be unhappy. From today on, if you want to see Emily, just go. I won't stop you anymore." Nathan turned to look at her. "Did you take the wrong medicine?" Sophia acted as if she didn't catch his sarcasm, her face still wearing a gentle smile. "No. I mean it. I'm not angry. I'll take good care of myself and the baby." Nathan was still a bit skeptical. He turned to face her, looking down at her. "What are you plotting now? Sophia, you don't need to act in front of me. Just say whatever you want to say." "I won't argue with you anymore," Sophia said. "I couldn't sleep all night; I thought a lot. I know I've been willful and done many bad things. But maybe it's because of the pregnancy, my feelings have changed a lot. I've thought it through. As long as you're happy, go be with Emily. I love you, so I will support you." Hearing this, Nathan's doubts eased a bit. He knew Sophia well enough. She wasn't very clever. When they first met, she was very submissive, which led to their affair. To be honest, Nathan was just enjoying the thrill of the affair; he didn't have much affection for Sophia. He only considered staying with her if she remained submissive. He never truly loved any woman. A few months ago, he thought Emily was infertile, and since Sophia was pregnant, he decided to let Sophia replace Emily. He just hadn't expected Sophia's personality to change drastically after becoming pregnant. Meanwhile, Emily had become more beautiful and increasingly stirred his emotions since their divorce. But... Nathan frowned slightly. Emily had mentioned that he had oligospermia. So there was a real possibility that the baby in Sophia's belly wasn't his... Seeing that Nathan was silent but his expression had softened considerably, Sophia smiled. Everything was unfolding exactly as Grace had predicted. Men liked gentle women. As long as a woman was gentle enough, a man wouldn't easily leave her. This was how Grace had gotten Logan Morgan to marry her. Sophia cautiously took another step forward, getting closer to Nathan. "Emily said I was a homewrecker, but that was something she made up. She even admitted it. I did date someone before meeting you, but we broke up quickly. We only dated for a month. Chloe knows all about that relationship. She knows better than anyone what kind of life I led before." Nathan understood now. "So you wanted me to accompany you to the concert to see Chloe for this reason?"Sophia didn't respond, seemingly acknowledging his words. "Actually, it doesn't matter what I say now. Just like you said earlier, once an impression is formed, it's hard to change. In your mind, I'm already a scheming and malicious woman, so regardless of whether Chloe clarifies things for me, you'll still think the baby isn't yours. But it's okay. After the baby is born, you can do a paternity test. If the baby isn't yours, I'll take full responsibility." Her words sounded quite convincing. Nathan's doubts gradually dissipated. "We'll settle everything after the baby is born and we get the paternity test results." "Alright," Sophia smiled. "I just heard that Emily went to the audience area to watch the concert. She should be in the staff seats. Nathan, you should go find her." Nathan's expression was uncertain. "Are you really not angry?" "Really," Sophia said. "If she can make you happy, then go to her."
