Chapter 1123 Pregnant with Skyler's Child
"I have something to show you," Sofia said as she took out three things from her bag: a pregnancy test, an ultrasound report,
and a phone.
"What is it?" Shirley couldn't tell what Sofia was trying to do. As soon as she saw the pregnancy test and the ultrasound report,
her mind went totally blank.
She stared at the pregnancy test and the ultrasound report in disbelief, unable to constrain her emotions. "W-What is this?"
She could clearly see what they were, but she couldn't accept it. Immersed in astonishment and panic, she didn't realize her
eyes turning red.
"I'm pregnant with Skye's child." Sofia pursed her lips upon telling the 'truth.'
Her words struck Shirley like thunder. The latter shook her head in reflex. "No way. These can be faked. Don't try to buy me with
these."
"Shirley, I know you don't believe me, and I know that the truth can be cruel. But I don't want you to be kept in the dark forever."
Sofia took out her phone to play a recording. "Listen."
A familiar voice echoed in the quiet living room loud and clear.
"I'm the cause for her disfigurement. I will definitely marry her." Shirley was confident that it was Skyler's voice.
Sofia spoke next, "Skye, are you going to marry her because of guilt?"
"Yes." His tone was firm beyond a shadow of hesitation.
Shirley was instantly plunged into an abyss because of the word 'guilt.' Spasms of pain incurred internally, causing her heart to
ache as it pounded hard against her chest.
She had thought that Skyler truly loved her all along. She never expected that he wanted to marry her after returning to the
country solely because she had disfigured herself.
Trembling, she placed her hand on her cheek to touch the scar. Tears welled up in an instant.
So, this is how it is. So, this is the truth.
"I hurt Skye back then, so he immediately got together with you when I returned to the country, just to seek revenge on me.
Otherwise, do you really think Skye would like you?"
Sofia's words stabbed Shirley in the heart. It was like she was pouring salt on Shirley's wound.
Shirley carefully recalled the moment she got together with Skyler. It seemed to have happened after Sofia returned to the
country.
Everything now made sense. Sofia's words were reasonable. They couldn't be ignored.
"They are twins. 40 days old."
Sofia pushed the ultrasound report in front of Shirley. "Shirley, I believe you are a kind and good girl and that you won't ruin a
family."
She took out a check worth 3 million from her bag. "Take this as a compensation."
The check was placed in front of Shirley. The series of zeros on the check appeared ironically ridiculous.
Trembling, she picked up the check. Her tears fell on it. She took a deep breath and tore the check directly. "I don't need this."
With tear-filled eyes, she stared at Sofia. "I have something to do later, so I can't keep you here long."
She got up and went to the bedroom. Sofia raised an eyebrow while smiling smugly at her desolate state.
"This is my contact number. Let me know once you've made up your mind." Sofia left her phone number and left.
After the door was gently closed again, Shirley collapsed against the bedroom door and started crying.
