《How I Catfished my Husband and his Girlfriend》全部章節：第 81 章 - 第 90 章

Dominic stood in the middle of the living room, looking at Sophia like he was afraid she might disappear if he blinked.“You want the truth?” he asked quietly.Sophia shifted slightly on her crutches, Hailey balanced carefully on her hip.“That would be a good start.”Dominic ran a hand through his hair.“Serena is a bartender.”Sophia’s expression didn’t change.“She works at the place the guys go to after training,” he continued. “She knows everyone there.”Sophia raised an eyebrow.“That explains why she was answering your phone?”Dominic sighed.“She grabbed it off the table before I realized it was ringing.”Sophia crossed her arms.“And the dancing?”Dominic hesitated.“It was a bar.”Sophia stared at him.“That’s not an answer.”Dominic looked directly at her.“I was stupid.”Sophia waited.“But I didn’t cheat on you.”The room stayed quiet.Sophia searched his face carefully.“You swear?”Dominic stepped closer.“On our daughter.”Sophia’s shoulders finally relaxed slightly.S

The house felt empty again after Dominic left.Sophia stood at the window for a long moment watching the street long after his car had disappeared. Hailey rested on her hip, playing with a lock of Sophia’s hair.“Well,” Sophia whispered softly, “looks like we’re on our own again.”Hailey squealed happily like she didn’t have a single worry in the world.Sophia smiled faintly.“Must be nice.”She slowly turned and made her way back toward the living room on her crutches, lowering herself carefully onto the couch.Her leg still ached constantly. The second surgery had helped stabilize the bone, but Dr. Adelman had been very clear: recovery would take time.A lot of time.But Sophia had stopped thinking about what she couldn’t do.Instead, she focused on what she could.And right now, that meant being a mother.Sophia stood at the therapy bars gripping them tightly.Captain Rhoden watched her carefully.“Alright Sunshine,” he said, “let’s see that toe touch again.”Sophia rolled her eyes

The house was unusually quiet that afternoon.Sophia sat on the couch with her leg elevated on pillows, her crutches leaning against the coffee table. Hailey played on the floor with a stuffed elephant while blocks were scattered everywhere around her.Sophia rested her head back against the couch.She looked exhausted.Her stomach had grown quickly with the twins, making it harder to move each day. Between the weight of the pregnancy, the healing leg, and chasing after a toddler, every day felt like climbing a mountain.She rubbed her lower back and exhaled slowly.“I swear you two are trying to kill me,” she muttered to the babies inside her stomach.Right on cue, one of them kicked.Sophia groaned.“Yeah, yeah… I hear you.”The front door opened.Patrick stepped inside carrying a small grocery bag.He stopped immediately when he saw her.Sophia looked miserable.Her hair was tied into a messy bun, her eyes were tired, and her face looked pale.Patrick raised an eyebrow.“Jesus, kid

Thousands of miles away, Dominic stood in the small office outside his commanding officer’s door.His uniform was perfectly pressed, but his mind wasn’t on regulations or reports.It was on Sophia.On the way her voice sounded tired the night before.On the small gasp when the babies kicked.On the thought of her standing in the living room on crutches, pregnant with twins, chasing a toddler.He knocked on the door.“Enter.”Dominic stepped inside.His commanding officer looked up from behind a stack of paperwork.“Sergeant.”Dominic stood at attention.“Sir.”The officer leaned back slightly.“What can I do for you?”Dominic didn’t hesitate.“My wife is due in a few weeks, sir.”The officer nodded.“I’m aware. Twins, right?”“Yes sir.”“And she’s still recovering from that leg injury.”Dominic nodded again.“Yes sir.”The officer studied him carefully.“You want to go home.”“Yes sir.”The officer leaned back in his chair and folded his arms.“You’re scheduled to rotate to Fort Jacks

Patrick drove faster than he normally would.Not reckless — but fast enough that Sophia noticed.“You’re acting like the babies are coming right now,” she muttered from the passenger seat.Patrick kept his eyes on the road.“You’re pregnant with twins.”“I know.”“You’re having contractions.”“They might not be contractions.”Patrick glanced at her briefly.“You almost dropped your phone during the last one.”Sophia looked down at her stomach.The pressure tightened again.She inhaled slowly.“Okay… that one hurt.”Patrick didn’t say I told you so.But the way he pressed the gas pedal said enough.In the back seat Hailey babbled happily, kicking her feet in her car seat completely unaware that her life might be changing very soon.Patrick pulled into the emergency entrance and jumped out of the car.Within seconds a nurse was pushing a wheelchair toward them.Sophia immediately shook her head.“No wheelchair.”The nurse blinked.“Ma’am—”Sophia grabbed her crutches.“I can walk.”Patr
