Sophie’s pov
Either way, I’m getting what I want
Those words rang in my head as I looked at Aiden in disbeliel. I tilt my hcad, my eyes glazing over as I
try to decipher if he was serious or not.
This gaze is unwavering
“Is that a threat?” I breathed out in disbelief when he didn’t apologize and say that he hadn’t meant
those words.
Ilis story eyes narrowed down on me. “Call it what you want That death trap still goes.”
I shake my head, the tip of my tongue pushing between my teeth “Typical Aiden Xavier Geis what he
wants hy bullying and threatening. You’ll never change.”
I said and took a step back “You’re still that same bastard from high school.”
His lips curl up into a snarl. “You weren’t saying that in my orlice yesterday while I was deep inside
you.” Ile sneered lowly so only I can hear
I flinched and then regained my composure quickly. I can’t show him that I’m weak anymore. That
would only make him feel like he was still
superior
“Don’t bring up a mistake Aiden.”
Ile takes a menacing step forward. “Don’t act like you’d not do that ‘mistake’ again if I want you to
puppx;”
My jaw ticked at that name. Here he goes again with that damn name.
I rolled my eyes and tear them away from him. “Don’t kid yourself. The only relationship we’ll ever have
from now onward is taking care of Ashton. That is if you still want to be in his life. I know how you’ve
never wanted to be a father. No room for kids right?”
“Are you trying to bait me into saying that I don’t want Ashton Sophie? Is this what it really has come
to? Youre kept his existence from me and now you’re trying your hardest to keep him away from me?”
Aiden snorted in disbelief
I let out a heavy breath and run my fingers through my hair. Leave it to Aiden to try and manipulate my
words to make me seem like the only bad guy
We were both the bad guys in this story:
“You’re unbelievable.” I groaned, turning around and walking away. I don’t know where I planned 10 go.
Maybe back to the apartment or maybe take a long walk down the street to clear my head.
But it’s not like I had time to figure out where I was going to go
because Aiden’s fingers wrapped around my arm and stopped me from walking any further
His touch burned through my skin despite how angry I am at him right
now.
“Sophie,” He sighed, his voice softening but he doesn’t say anything further. Only grips around my arm
firmer.
He starts after a few seconds of silence but a black car rolling up to park just behind the SUV he just
caine out of drew his attention and he retracts his hand from my arm.
A young man comes out of the black car with some papers in his hands, Aiden leaves my side and
approaches the man
I turn around to look at them in confusion. Ria walks over to me and nudges me using her arm.” What’s
that’s about?” She nudges her chin to Aiden and the young man who’s handing him the papers.
I tilt my head. “I have no idea. But apparently, he bought me a new car.” I sighed, looking back at Mary
who was already hooked to the tow truck
I chewed my bottom lip in anger. It was clear that whatever I say now would be of no use, Aiden got his
way like he always did.

The only difference was that I’d not let him get his way as casily as he
once did.
“No kidding? Damn, I hope it’s a nice car
I shake my head. “I don’t care if it’s a nice car or not, I’m not accepting
it.”
Aiden turns around, his hand clutching the papers as he stalks toward
The younger man stood beside the black car, looking our way.
“Ilere,” Aiden says and passes me the papers.
I look at him confused.
“You need to sign those papers so the car will be on your name.” He said and took out a pen from his
At this early Aiden was already dressed in his expensive suit. He stood out like a sour thumb in this
part of the neighborhood,
I’m surprised he showed up here in such expensive clothing and without bodyguards.
I nod, grabbing the paper. His lips lifted into a cocky smirk that irritated me
Ile thought he had won. I’ll teach that cocky cassanova that he no longer can bend me to his will
anymore. I was going to stay strong for
my son, just in case he disappoints and hurts him like he has done to me countless times
I flashed him a fake sinile and then……
The sound of the paper learing filled the air. The second sound was Ria’s shocked gasp and the third
was the stunned curse word out of her lips as I lling the tom paper toward Aiden’s face.
Ilis eyes shut and his jaw licked in anger This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
“Listen here and listen good Aiden. You can no longer manipulate me into doing anything you want
anymore. Yes, I was wrong for keeping Ash from you but you’d miss out on his firsts anyway! And sure
you want in his life right now, but that doesn’t mean you can just come into mine and shill around my
private stuff’ without my permission Keep your damn car, I’ll buy my own” I hissed and walked away
from him before he had the chance to respond

I’m storming back inside the apartment building when I hear his rushing licet nearing me Aiden’s hand
grips my arm stopping me and then he turned me around
I slam into his chest. gasping
Ile’s glaring at me in fury and frustration, “Where is that woman Yesterday who was crying and trying to
act innoxent? Where’s the whimpering puppy who wanted me to forgive her for keeping my son’s
existence from me!” Ile glared “Showing your true colors Sophie?”
I glared at him and tugged out of his arm.
“She died when she realized that she was right to think that she still needed to protect her baby boy’s
heart from you.” I spat.
Aiden takes a step forward, seething.” What the fuck do you mean? Protect his heart from me?”
“All you ever do is shatter hearts wherever you go Aiden. You’ve always been this way. You’ve said that
you have no room in your life for kids. You don’t want any. What if one day you’ll say that again and just
decide to leave Ashton? What then? I’d have to pick up the pieces you’ve left behind and inend our
son’s heart all alone.” Tears well up in my eyes as I continued.
“You must understand that I can’t let my guard down for you casily Aiden. Not when I don’t know your
true intentions. Not when you’ve already proved you can hurt me. I don’t want my son to go through the
same thing I won’t stand by it.” I lifted my chin in detiance even though tears were currently trailing
down my cheeks.
Aiden flinched and I’m not sure if the reaction was caused by my words or the sight of my tears.
He lakes a step back and brushes a hand down his face. “I won’t ever hurt my son Sophie.”
I shake my head and giggled lowly without emotion. “It’s casier for you to say that than to actually mean
it Aiden.”

“Soph?” Mila’s voice is soft and I turn around to see her at the bottom of the stairs with Ash in her arms.
She looks concerned as she darted her eyes between Aiden and me
His eyes are a twinkling blue and when he smiles, my breath catches in my throat by how much he
looks like Aiden.
“Mama” Ash squealed happily
“He looks so much like me,” Aiden said so lowly that my ears barely picked up on it.
