Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“The reason you called me here was that I may be the father of the child?” Claude finally understood the situation, a rare moment where he was smart.
Sophia nodded and said, “From the information we’ve gathered so far, both Felix and you are suspects.”
Claude looked at Felix, who was also looking at him.
The two men looked at each other in silence and seemed to begin a contest with each other.
Anita glanced at her phone and said slowly, “The last suspect should be here soon.”
The two men frowned at the same time. Felix, calm as always, chose to remain silent, but Claude had to ask, “There’s one more? So there are three potential fathers?”
Sophia was speechless. The hateful suspects in their eyes had become “potential fathers” to Claude. Just how much did he like children?
Anita nodded and asked Sophia, “Do you still want to hide?”
“No. Norman is a smart man. You won’t be able to get anything from him. I’ll ask him myself.”
Anita smiled and said, “Then I’ll have to ask both gentlemen here to cooperate.”
Felix said, “If the suspects are only Claude and me, are you sure there’s no way to determine whose one it is?”
Sophia said, “Not from the information you’ve given us, at least.”
“How will you know who’s the father then, if the last suspect has no idea what happened?”
Felix got to the crux of the entire issue.
Sophia thought about it initially. She knew they might not admit to being the perpetrator. If that happened, she’d have to resort to extreme means.
Even if the two men’s story of blacking out sounded suspicious, the extreme method might just work.
“If that’s the case, I want to hear your moans.”
Silence ensued.
What a strong woman.
Everyone was speechless as they looked at Sophia holding onto her stomach. Seeing the kind smile on her face, they felt a little afraid.
They tacitly shut their mouths until the last suspect stepped into the villa.
Norman, the prince charming in the hearts of many ladies at Rotary University. He had short blonde hair and a pair of deep eyes. Even though everyone knew that he was a true playboy, the young ladies could not stop themselves from falling for him.
Why wouldn’t they want this young version of Leonardo di Caprio as their boyfriend?
Norman was intrigued seeing so many people with Anita. Just as he was about to ask, Sophia stood up.
“Norman, I’m pregnant. It’s your child.”
Norman was stunned for a moment and thought he heard it wrong. “Huh? What are you talking about, Sophia?”
Sophia repeated without changing her expression, “I’m pregnant and it’s your child.”
Norman immediately denied, “How is that possible? I haven’t slept with you!”
Sophia did not immediately dismiss Norman’s suspicion and continued with her plan, “But I’ve done it, only with you. If it’s not yours, then whose is it?”
Norman opened his mouth. “When?”
“Last month, on the night of Anita’s birthday.”
“How are you sure it was me?”
“I recognized you.”
“Then why didn’t you say anything the next day?”
“I know you’re a playboy, so I didn’t want to argue with you.”
“Ha!” Norman laughed. Sophia, this vengeful woman, had deliberately stood him up on the night of his confession just because he was pursuing her without telling her his identity. She had embarrassed him. If she had known that he assaulted her, she would have thought of a way to deal with him a long time ago. Why would she let him walk free until today?
After seeing through Sophia’s trick, Norman said, “Are you really pregnant?”
Sophia pursed her lips and thought how difficult Norman was. He was calm in just a few exchanges.
She nodded. “Anita can prove it.”
Norman frowned and was a little annoyed. “Why don’t you go for an abortion?”
As soon as he said that, the people in the room looked at him with disapproval, as if they were looking at a scumbag.
Sophia sneered. “Why? Do you want me to abort your child?”
Norman immediately said, “What does it have to do with me? Did I say that I’m the father of the child?”
“Even if you don’t admit it, it’s still yours.”
Norman laughed at Sophia’s unreasonable response. “So, by virtue of your narrative, I am now a father?”
“You were seen going to the third floor that night and only came down a long time after.”
Norman’s expression froze, but he quickly adjusted himself and replied nonchalantly, “I went to the third floor to play billiards, do you have a problem with that?”
Sophia said, “You only played billiards, huh? Was that it?”
Norman said impatiently, “Right.”
Sophia said with a faint smile, “Last question, why did you question me when you could have explained your innocence?”
