❤️Sophie❤️

By the time we get home, the city has gone quiet. Not completely quiet.

Cars still move somewhere beyond the gates, the occasional sound of an engine drifting through the night, but compared to the noise and brightness of the gala, the house feels almost peaceful.

I step inside and immediately slip off my heels. A small sigh escapes me as my feet touch the floor. Adrian looks down at me. “That bad?”

I glance at the shoes in my hand. “They looked beautiful.” He waits. I continue.

  • I ordered a baby daddy, not a crazy billionaire.    Chapter 124

    ❤️Sophie❤️By Saturday afternoon, I am desperate to get out of the house. Not because anything is wrong. Actually, that is the problem. Nothing is wrong.Everything has been so quiet lately that I feel like I am living inside a bubble. Adrian goes to work, comes home, spends time with me, and somehow manages to make even the most ordinary days feel like something I want to keep.But I am tired of sitting in the same rooms. So when Sandy calls and tells me she is already on her way to the shopping district, I don’t hesitate.I change into a loose cream dress, slip my feet into sandals and grab my bag before heading downstairs.One of the maids is arranging fresh flowers in the sitting room when I walk through. “I’m going out with Sandy.”She looks up and smiles. “Will Mr. Blackwood be joining you?”“No. He’s working.”She gives me a knowing look that makes me laugh.“I’ll be back later.” Outside, the afternoon air feels warmer than I expected.By the time Sandy arrives, I am already wa

    ❤️Sophie❤️By the time Adrian gets home, the afternoon has already settled into that quiet part of the day where the house feels almost too peaceful.I am curled up on the sofa in the sitting room with my feet tucked beneath me, one hand resting absently over my stomach while the television plays something I haven’t been paying attention to for the last twenty minutes. A maid passes through the room with a tray of folded laundry, gives me a small smile, then disappears down the hallway.I glance toward the entrance when I hear the front door open. My body reacts before I even think about it. I sit up.A few seconds later, Adrian walks in.He looks exactly like he always does when he comes home from work—dark suit, loosened tie, sleeves still buttoned at his wrists—but there is something different in the way he carries himself. His shoulders are slightly tense, and his expression is harder than it was when he left this morning.He spots me almost immediately. His eyes settle on mine.

    ☠️Adrian☠️I wake before the alarm. For a few seconds, I don’t move.The room is still dim, the curtains drawn, the air cool against my skin. Sophie is asleep beside me, turned slightly toward my side of the bed, one hand resting near her face.My gaze drops to my right hand. The knuckles are swollen. I flex my fingers carefully.The dull ache reminds me of the wall, the empty room upstairs, the photograph sitting inside the box. And Sophie standing on the other side of the door.I look at her. She had every reason to ask more questions yesterday. She didn’t. She could have pushed until I told her everything. She didn’t.Instead, she sat beside me with an ice pack wrapped around my hand and acted as though I was still the same man she had woken up beside that morning.I don’t know what to do with that. My eyes move over her face. She looks peaceful. Trusting. Completely unaware of how much of my life exists outside the version of me she knows.I get out of bed quietly. The moment my f

    ❤️Sophie❤️ I knock again. There is no answer. I look at the closed door, my hand still resting on the handle. Something is wrong. Adrian doesn’t usually walk away from me like that. Especially not after I’ve said something as harmless as asking whether our fathers were friends. I glance down the hallway. The house is quiet again. Somewhere downstairs, I can hear one of the maids moving dishes in the kitchen, but up here there is nothing except the silence behind the door. I knock once more. “Adrian?” Still nothing. I slowly turn the handle. The door opens. He is standing by the window with his back to me. For a second, I look at him. His shoulders are tense, and one hand is hanging stiffly at his side. Then I notice his knuckles. They’re red. I step inside. “What happened to your hand?” He doesn’t turn around immediately. “Nothing.” I stare at him. “Adrian.” He finally looks over his shoulder. His expression is different. Not cold exactly. Just closed. I walk toward him. “Y

    ☠️Adrian☠️I don’t say anything after Sophie shows me the second photograph. I can’t. The image remains on her phone between us, my father’s younger face staring back at me from a life that feels like it belonged to someone else.Felix stands beside him. Both of them are smiling. Friends. They had been friends long before I ever knew what betrayal looked like.Long before I understood that the people my father trusted could be the same people who would help destroy everything he had built.I know this photograph. Not this exact copy, but the moment it captured.I’ve seen photographs from that period before. I’ve heard my father speak about Felix. I’ve watched them sit together, discuss business, laugh over drinks, and make plans.My father trusted him. That was his mistake. Felix’s mistake came later. The debt. The promises. The money my father never borrowed.The things that were taken from us. The house. The business. Everything that had once made us secure. And then the night that

    ❤️Sophie❤️The next morning feels strangely ordinary.By the time I come downstairs, the house is already awake. I hear the maids moving around the kitchen, the quiet clatter of dishes and the occasional murmur between them as they prepare breakfast. Sunlight stretches across the dining room floor, bright enough to make the whole house feel warmer than it actually is.Adrian is already there. He’s sitting at the head of the table with a cup of coffee in one hand, his attention on his phone. His shirt sleeves are rolled to his forearms, and there’s something about the way he sits so comfortably in his own house that makes me smile before he even notices me.He looks up. “Morning.”“Morning.” I walk over and take the chair beside him.He reaches for my hand beneath the table without looking away from his phone, giving my fingers a brief squeeze before returning his attention to whatever he’s reading.I smile to myself. A maid places breakfast in front of me, then another pours fresh c
