I ordered a baby daddy, not a crazy billionaire. Chapter 71
❤️Sophie❤️By the time we get home, the sky has turned dark. I step out of the car slowly, one hand resting over my stomach.“I’m fine,” I say before Adrian can ask.He gives me a look. “I didn’t ask.”“You were about to.”His mouth twitches. “Get inside.”I roll my eyes. “Yes, sir.”He follows me to the front door. I expect him to come inside with me, but his phone rings and he stops. His expression changes the moment he sees the screen.He answers in a quiet voice. “Yes.”I turn toward the door, giving him privacy. But then I hear the other person’s voice faintly through the phone.I can’t make out the words. Adrian’s expression becomes colder. “When?”A pause. “Tonight?”Another pause. His eyes move toward the driveway. “Is everything ready?”I glance over my shoulder. He has his back partially turned to me now. I can’t hear the response. Then I hear him say something that makes me stop. “The vault.”My brows pull together. The vault? Adrian lowers his voice. “No one enters until I

❤️Sophie❤️The next afternoon, when I open my eyes, the room is already filled with golden light. For a few seconds, I don’t move.I stare at the ceiling, trying to figure out what time it is. The house is strangely quiet. I turn my head toward the window.The sunlight is low, casting long shadows across the bedroom. Late afternoon.I reach for my phone on the nightstand and check the time. Almost four. I blink. I slept that long?I push myself upright slowly. The other side of the bed is empty. Adrian is gone.I don’t know why that realization bothers me.After everything that happened yesterday, I suppose I should be used to waking up without him beside me.Still, I find myself staring at the space for a moment longer than I should. I pull the blanket away and place my feet on the floor.The moment I stand, something strange happens. A small flutter twists inside my stomach. I freeze.My hand immediately moves to my belly. “Baby?”I almost laugh at myself. It’s too early for me to f

❤️Sophie❤️ The house feels unusually quiet after Adrian leaves the house. I remain where I am for several minutes, staring at the doorway. I can still see the scars. I can still hear his voice. I don’t know what happened to Adrian. I don’t know who hurt him. But I know one thing now. There is a part of my husband that he keeps buried so deeply that even he seems afraid of what happens when someone gets too close to it. I return to the bedroom and sit on the bed. I should stop thinking about it. Instead, I keep wondering what it would feel like to know the whole story. A knock sounds on the door. Before I can answer, the door opens. Adrian steps inside. He’s wearing a black shirt now, the sleeves rolled to his forearms. His expression is back to normal. Cold. Controlled. As if he didn’t just show me the most vulnerable part of himself. “You should eat,” he says. I stare at him. “That’s what you came back to say?” His brow lifts. “What did you expect?” “I don’t know.” He

❤️Sophie❤️I wake up before Adrian. For a few seconds, I don’t remember why my wrist and neck hurt. Then I do. My eyes fall to the faint red marks around my wrist. Last night comes back in pieces.His hand closing around me. The sudden change in his face.The way he looked at me like he wasn’t seeing me at all. And then—“Don’t touch me.”I swallow. I don’t know what frightened me more. The strength in his grip or the look in his eyes afterward.It hadn’t looked like anger. It had looked like fear. I sit up slowly. Adrian is already gone from the bed.Of course he is. I stare at the space beside me.For some reason, I expected him to leave after what happened. But he didn’t. He stayed.I remember waking briefly during the night and seeing him sitting in the chair by the window. He hadn’t said anything.He had simply been there. Why? I push the blanket away and stand. My wrist aches slightly when I move it.I rub it absently as I walk toward the bathroom.I stop in front of the mirror

☠️Adrian☠️ When I return to the bedroom, the lights are off. For a moment, I think Sophie has already gone downstairs. Then I see her. She’s asleep on my side of the bed. I stop beside the door. I don’t know why that catches me off guard. She must have been waiting for me. The thought does something strange to my chest. I close the door quietly and walk farther into the room. The mattress shifts when I sit on the edge. Sophie stirs. Her eyes open slowly. “Adrian?” “Go back to sleep.” She blinks, still half asleep. “You came back.” “Yes.” A small smile appears on her face. “You said you had something to finish.” “I did.” “And you finished?” “Yes.” She pushes herself up slightly, her hair falling across her face. “What time is it?” “Late.” I walk over to the wardrobe and pull off my jacket and shirt. Then walk back to the bed and sit. She looks at the clock, then back at me. “You should sleep.” “I will.” She studies me for a few seconds. Something

☠️Adrian☠️ Something is different the moment I walk through the front door. I can’t explain it. Nothing looks out of place. The house is quiet. The staff moves through their usual routines. Everything is exactly where it should be. Yet I know Sophie well enough now to notice when something has changed. And when I find her upstairs, I understand why. She is sitting on the edge of the bed, staring at nothing. The moment she sees me, her expression changes. Not fear. Not guilt. Something closer to satisfaction. “What happened?” She shakes her head. “Nothing.” I loosen my tie. That answer has become her favorite whenever she doesn’t want me asking questions. I walk farther into the room. “You’re smiling.” Her lips immediately flatten. “I’m not.” “You were.” She looks away. Interesting. I remove my jacket and place it over the back of a chair. “How was your day?” “Fine.” “That’s all?” She nods. I study her for another moment. Usually, Sophie talks when she’s nervous. Tonig
