The Arranged Bride

Sophia's POV

When I came to the living room I was stopped by what I saw. The sight in front of my eyes completely broke my heart.

Nick was sitting on the sofa with that same blonde girl from his office straddling him. They were sucking their faces off.

How could he ? The previous night he stole a kiss from me and now he had brought a woman home !?.

Ignoring the bitter pain in my heart , I turned to look at Ethan to not find him there.

Just then he was coming out of his room with a duvet in his hand which was covering his view.

I went up to him.

" I brought this. We can cuddle under this while watching the movie." , He said with smiling eyes.

" Ethan , why don't we go out for some ice cream ?" , I asked covering up with a bright smile.

He thought for a second and then grinned, nodding.

I turned to look at them who were standing and looking at us. Nick was looking away while that blonde bimbo was smirking at me. How matured !

After making sure that Ethan won't notice his father in a compromising position with another woman , I took the cover from Ethan which was blocking his view.

" Honey , can you go to my room and bring the small bag lying on the bed , please ?" I asked Ethan.

" Yess Momm " he sang and went upstairs.

I couldn't help but smile each time he called me that.

When I turned around , I saw Nick had a shocked expression apparently at Ethan , calling me Mom.

" Nick , really? This is what you are capable of? Making out with a random woman in your house when you know your son is in the house and may come here anytime? Matured much ?" I spat.

" Whom did you call a random woman , huh ? You bitch ! I am his girlfriend. " , That bimbo snarled angrily.

It was like a second blow to my prestige. But I masked my emotions. Never would I give that bimbo the satisfaction of seeing me hurt.

" Well , congratulations to you ! Now kindly get out, will you or I need to kick you out ?" , I spoke sarcastically.

" And who gives you the right to do that? Who do you think you are ? Oh I remember, my gold digging wife ? " He scoffed. " When you spoke earlier , you unknowingly said the right words. This is my house and Ethan is my son. So don't you dare lecture me on what I should be doing in my house and how I should be parenting my son . " He said, emphasizing on 'my'.
