The Arranged Bride

Chapter - 50

Sophia's POV

When Nick left the room I couldn't comprehend why. I saw him settling in the car and driving off. I was always scared of having this talk with him, scared of being left alone. When Ethan had brought the topic up in the car, I could feel Nick's stare on me. I knew he had noticed me tense up.

When he spoke about the baby , my immediate reaction had given away my uneasiness with the topic. I had to tell him about it . So I took a deep breath and decided to speak.

I told him that I couldn't give Ethan what he wanted. There was a brief moment of silence between us before Nick asked if I can conceive or not. His tone seemed so distant and cold but there was a trace of vulnerability in it. I told him that I could but before I could elaborate, he walked away.

At that moment I could feel my heart breaking. Did he discard me because I won't be able to carry a child. No , what am I even thinking? I know he would come back once he cools down. But I didn't know that he was so keen for a ch- Wait. .........Shit! He got it wrong.

He asked me if I can conceive or not and I said I can. Now he thinks that I don't want to.

Oh God! That pig-headed, stupid , impatient man!

Nick's POV

By the time I had reached home , it was pretty clear in my head that she would have never said something like that. It was fucking stupid of me to act on impulse.

I parked the car and rushed in. The house seemed calm. I ran up the stairs into our room, but swinging open , I found it empty. The sense of Deja vu hit me hard.
