Chapter 116

Sophia couldn’t sleep a wink last night because of what happened last night, and because of this, her blood pressure was high again after a long time.

So, instead of tossing on the bed from here to there, she gave her time to her official work.

Neither she nor Eden could attend the meeting with Mr.

Grayson yesterday because of Brandon’s situation, and his secretary had mailed her about pulling out her other investment from the company because of such unprofessional behavior from Sophia’s end.

Now, she had to return their investment within a week, or they would file a complaint against the company and its owner.

‘Great!

Just great!

I grabbed my phone and dialed my assistant’s number even though I knew that it was two in the morning.

“Good Morning, Ms.

Weasley,” I heard her sleepy voice.

“I’m sorry to disturb you at this moment, Shailey, but I just got free of every time and read the mail from Mr.

Grayson.

“I tried to explain to him that something came up at the end of the moment because of which you couldn’t make it, but he was not ready to listen to a word from anything coming from someone like me, I mean just a secretary.

All he said was that if ‘your boss has to explain anything to him, then it will be better if she can contact him directly at his home.

Sophia was displeased to hear this.

Simon Grayson was an old man in his sixties and was a powerful businessman in Brazil, but character-wise, he was someone from whom she would like to stay miles away.

Sophia always felt him undressing through his eyes whenever he looked at her, but until now, he never behaved or spoke a word on which she could say this fact with confirmation, but her sixth sense was telling it loud and clear that visiting him at his place couldn’t be anything but not a good decision.

“Oh, okay.

Good night, Shailey.

“Good night, Ms.

Weasley.

By the way, are your babies fine?

I mean, you never disappeared all of a sudden.

“Yes!

Yes!

They both are doing great.

Thank you for your concern.

It’s just… I ran into my Ex-husband today, so my life upside down for a day.

“Ex-husband?

” She sounded surprised.

“I’m sorry.

I thought they were the result of one night stand or something like that.

You never told me or told anyone that you are a divorcee, so… I assume.

Right now, I’m feeling so special that you shared a part of your secret with me because no one in the office knows that you’re a mother of two cute and handsome babies except me.

And I promise to keep it secret.

“Goooooddd night, Shailey.

” Saying this, Sophia disconnected the call.

Sophia didn’t want to hide her marital status, but then she didn’t want to face the question of her Ex-husband’s name on a daily basis.

And using Brandon as her Ex-husband was the last thing she wanted to do because everyone knew that Brandon Dennis Haysbert had never married anyone.

By using his name, she might have appeared as a joke in front of them as a liar or a person who wanted unnecessary attention by connecting her name with a billionaire.

In the same way, she hid her babies from everyone because she didn’t want unnecessary attention in her life, knowing that everyone would think they were born out of wedlock.

Sophia reached the hospital early in the morning before her babies would have reached here to spend time with their dad.

The moment she walked in, she saw Brandon was trying to sit on the bed, but maybe because of weakness, he was having a hard time doing that on his own while Bruce and Eden were sleeping on either side of the couch.

At first, she helped Brandon sit properly on the bed by adjusting the pillow behind his back.

She could feel his eyes on her all the time, but she chose to ignore them, knowing that how much they affected her.

She tried to step away from him, but he held her hand.

“Don’t ignore me, please p>

” When Brandon finally said those words, she looked into his eyes.

Nothing could be best than this for Brandon.

He had woken up just five minutes before feeling thirsty, it was anything but definitely not the thirst for water, but he forgot about Alcohol when he saw her.

She looked fresh in her brown tailored suit with cream color high-neck sweater under it.

She looked breathtakingly beautiful.

“Don’t worry; I’m not here to ignore you.

I have to discuss something important with you.

” Sophia said coldly, guarding her heart around him.

Otherwise, she would fall in love with him AGAIN.

And he wouldn’t fall in love with her AGAIN.

Pulling her hand out of his hand, she looked at Eden and Bruce, who were wide awake.

“Good Morning, both of you p>

“Good Morning Sophia p>

“Good Morning p>

“Eden, you can leave for home because Arya will be reaching here soon with babies.

“And you are… “, She looked at me from top to bottom.

going to the office.

But you asked me to join in the meeting.

“I will give you a detailing about it later,” Sophia answered, not telling the full story.

“But before that, can you please explain to me why did you help Colton in doing any transaction with Brandon’s black card?

Eden looked at Sophia nervously while Bruce and Brandon remained silent, watching everything silently.

“Why did you tell him that his father doesn’t know about his or his brother’s existence?

‘I knew it.

’ Brandon thought.

He, too, had felt that someone about Colton was suspicious, especially when he told about his birthday on his own.

“On the top, you also told him that his mom and dad fight over something, and after that, we are not on talking terms.
