Visibly angered, Sophia couldn’t help but raise her voice. On the other hand, Matilda was staring at her without
even registering her attitude. Hesitantly, she stated, “You’re pregnant.” Seeing that Sophia remained silent, Matilda
went on, “And I suppose John is the father?”
Sophia denied rather directly, “No, he’s not.”
Taking a deep breath, Matilda pointed out, “You don’t really associate yourself with other men except for John.”
As if Ian and Logan are women, Sophia grumbled internally.
After some thought, Matilda asked, “Does John not know about this?”
Meanwhile, Sophia folded the report so that she could tuck it into her pocket. “As I said, he’s not the father, so this
has nothing to do with him.”
However, it only further convinced Matilda that the child belonged to John, as she knew Sophia wasn’t a player.
Although she didn’t like Sophia, she figured she shouldn’t be framing Sophia regardless of their relationship. With a
frown, Matilda ignored what Sophia told her, all the while following her own line of thought. “Your belly will swell, so
you won’t be able to hide the truth.”
Sophia took a few deep breaths before sitting down on her bed. Confused, Matilda asked, “Why won’t you tell him
about your pregnancy? If things go well, you might be able to remarry him.”

However, Sophia only sneered at her. “Your son isn’t as special as you perceive him to be. Despite being pregnant, I
have no intention to use it as an excuse to remarry him.” Lifting her head, she stared at Matilda. “Perhaps you don’t
know, but your son is the one who is begging to remarry me, so I am the one being forced.”
Matilda locked eyes with Sophia. “Why don’t you want to remarry him?” Given that even someone as prestigious as
Isabelle was aiming for John, Matilda didn’t quite believe in what Sophia told her. Due to the fact that Sophia was of
even lower status than Isabelle, Matilda didn’t believe that Sophia wouldn’t want to marry John.
With a smile on her face, Sophia shot back, “With you as his mother, I would of course exclude him from my list.”
Matilda hissed before saying, “You mean—” However, she bit her own tongue upon laying eyes on Sophia’s belly.
Meanwhile, Sophia lowered her gaze to look at her own feet. “The child is mine, and mine alone. It has nothing to
do with anybody else.”
It wasn’t until a while later that Matilda found her voice again. “If I told John about this…” Sophia lifted her head
abruptly to shoot Matilda a pointed look, which managed to silence the latter. After a moment’s pause, Matilda
raised her chin to say defiantly, “In your dreams! I’ll never tell him about the baby! I hope you’ll never be able to
get together with him anyway!” Having said that, Matilda licked her lips. “However, I trust you will not go for an
abortion, am I right?”
Without giving a direct answer, Sophia asked, “What do you mean?”
Knowing that Sophia must’ve misconstrued what she said, Matilda supplied, “I don’t plan on doing anything. It’s just
a question.”
Sophia snapped back in an icy tone, “Don’t you worry, as I will never use the child as leverage against the
Constances. It’s as I told you, the child is mine, and mine alone. It has nothing to do with anybody else.” For a long
while, Matilda stared at Sophia in silence.
On the other hand, John and Logan were cooking downstairs. With Logan rambling about what happened to the
Morgans, John took a peek at the living room, only to see that neither Sophia nor Matilda were there. Startled, he
washed his hands before exiting the kitchen in search of them, but neither of them were in the yard, so he went
upstairs in a hurry.
As soon as he got onto the second floor, Matilda was already on her way out from Sophia’s room with a sullen look
on her face, to whom he asked, “What have you been talking about?”
Glancing at John, Matilda replied, “Don’t worry. With Sophia’s temperament, I am always the one being bullied.”
With that, she brushed past John to go down the stairs, leaving the premises without staying for dinner.
