Pursuing Her

“All right, I understand. Let me send you home!” Sophie said, not wanting her to return alone.

“It's fine. I can manage on my own, Sophie. I know what I'm doing. You don't have to worry about me,” Cecelia said firmly. At that moment, she just wanted some quiet time alone.

Deciding to have the baby was her own choice, and she had the ability to take care of it.

"Okay, send me a text when you're home.” Knowing the kind of person she was, Sophie didn't force her.

"Okay."

Cecelia left, and soon Arius came over to find Sophie.

“Cecelia is a big star, and she's at the peak of her career now. Now that she’s pregnant, what will happen to her acting career in the future?”

“I don't know. But no matter what happens, I will protect her,” Sophie replied. Cecelia was her best friend, and she couldn't bear to see her getting hurt.

“Poor Cecelia...” What a pity. Love truly changes a person and makes them completely unrecognizable. “What about you? Does Tristan know about your pregnancy? Knowing how much he cares about you, I bet he'll be by your side all day every day if he finds out.”

Tristan was the kind of husband who genuinely cared about his wife. His love and devotion for Sophie gave their friends a sense of relief.

"He doesn't, so don't say anything. I want to tell him myself.” It will be such a pleasant surprise for Tristan when he finds out. He will surely be delighted!

“Don’t worry! I'm not the type to blab. I won't say a word.” It's their own personal matter. Why would I go around talking about it?

“I'm heading back now.”

Sophie only wanted to find Tristan. He had always wanted a child, and now his wish had finally come true.

"Go ahead. Be careful on the road. Otherwise, just let Tristan come pick you up. He'll definitely be more than happy to do so.” Tristan is always ready to be by Sophie's side.

“Nah, I'm not that weak.”

Sophie went straight to Lombard Group. Sean was there too, dealing with some legal issues related to the

company.

When Sophie saw Sean, he seemed to have something on his mind. She knew what he wanted to ask, but since Cecelia didn’t want him to know, she couldn't say anything.

But is it really right to keep it from him? Raising a child alone would be very difficult. Can Cecelia handle it?

Seeing that Sophie was lost in thought, Sean sat down beside her.

"How is Cecelia doing?” He used to see news about Cecelia all the time, but now she seemed to have disappeared.

“She's doing fine, so don't worry.” Sophie still had no intention of telling Sean about the pregnancy. Even if she wanted to, she needed Cecelia's consent. She couldn't take matters into her own hands. However, she couldn't resist asking one question.

“Sean, do you like children?”

Sean was confused by the sudden question. Why would she ask that?

“What do you mean? Is Cecelia pregnant?” It's possible after what happened that night.

Sophie shook her head.

“No. How could she be? She takes birth control pills.” She had to lie since he asked. His reaction clearly showed that he wasn't interested in having children.

Sophie felt disappointed and sorry for Cecelia upon seeing Sean's current reaction.

"Sean, you don't really like Cecelia, do you? If you don't, then you two shouldn't bother each other anymore.” Cecelia’s a proud woman who doesn’t care about anyone's sympathy.

Sean remained silent.

He didn't know how to describe his feelings. Ever since that night, he had been dreaming about her. However, he wondered about his persistence after all these years.

Tristan came back and saw that Sophie seemed upset. He sat down next to her.

"What's wrong? Did Sean upset you?” Sean has just left, and if it wasn't Sean, who else could have upset her?

Sophie shook her head.

“No. How could he possibly upset me?” She tried to calm down and suppressed her emotions. Well, what else can I do?

“He did upset you, didn't he? Don't worry. I'll teach him a lesson next time.” He has to face the consequences of messing with my wife!

Seeing him always standing up for her, Sophie felt much better. She relaxed and leaned against him. "You don't have to. We are husband and wife, and he’s your good friend. You don't have to do anything to him because of me!” There was really no need for that. She wasn't an unreasonable woman.

“All right. How is Cecelia?” Sophie must be upset because of Cecelia. After all, Cecelia is her best friend.

"She's fine. She'll forget about Sean.” That was what Sophie said, but she was still worried. If Cecelia could really forget, she wouldn't have insisted on keeping the baby.

“Let's not dwell on it. What would you like to eat for dinner?”

“I've already made a reservation at a restaurant. Are you done with work? If you are, we can leave now.” Sophie decided to share the good news in a beautiful setting.

“You've made a reservation? Is today a special day?” Have I forgotten something?

"No. Let's go!"

The two of them drove to the most famous restaurant in Jipsdale. The atmosphere there was amazing. It was Georgina who recommended it, and it didn’t disappoint. The place was truly enchanting.

“Do you like it? If you do, we can come here often in the future.” Most girls love places like this. Even I, as a man, feel that the place is like a dream.

"Yes, it's really nice. No wonder Georgina has been telling me about it.”

Both of them had been too busy to notice such a great place in Jipsdale.

As Sophie had already made a reservation, the server led them to their table and took their orders. When the food arrived, Sophie said solemnly, “Tristan, I have some good news to share.”

?

"What is it?" Did she prepare a surprise for me? I should have been the one to do this as her husband. I'm falling short in that regard!

“I'm pregnant. We're going to have the child you've always wanted.” As Sophie spoke these words, her eyes were shining. Our lives are complete now.

Tristan didn't react at first.

But when he did, he was overcome with immense joy. Is it true? We're going to have our own child. I'll be a father, and she'll be a mother.

We'll live together as a happy family!
