---- Chapter 7 David's expression turned serious in an instant. "I'm going to bea father?" I said calmly, "You don't have to be. You can walk away. I can handle this on my own." "No way." He took my hand firmly. "Terminating the pregnancy would be too hard on your body. If it's your child, then it's mine too-I'll raise them as my own." I couldn't help but smile at how sincere he looked. " You really don't say no to anything, do you?" "Because I love you, Sophie. All of you." His eyes were filled with sincerity, and I couldn't believe I had never noticed how deep his feelings for me ran. "I'm kidding. I'm not pregnant," I said with a soft laugh. He blinked. "What?

Maybe I'm old-fashioned." David suddenly grinned, then scooped me into his arms. "Well, in that case, don't you think we've got some catching up to do?"

"Darling, now that we're married, don't you think it's time you moved into my penthouse?" he said as we landed. ---- "Of course. Come help me pack." But when we arrived at my apartment, Matthew was already sitting in the hallway like a stray dog. "Sophie, you're finally back!" His face fell when he saw David. "You've been reckless enough, but dragging Mr. Rockefeller into your drama? That's going too far. David is busy. He has board meetings and businesses to run. You're just distracting him with all this chaos!" David wrapped an arm around my waist. "Taking care of my wife is my priority." Matthew scoffed. "Mr. Rockefeller, you don't need to keep up the act. I looked into you two-I know you're childhood friends. I get that you're helping her. But she's pregnant with my child. I have a responsibility here." He turned to me. "Come on, Sophie. You ran off toa tropical island while carrying my baby? And dragged David with you? That's dangerous and irresponsible! Discover our latest featured short drama reel. Watch now and enjoy the story!
