Sophia was now apathetic toward Bethany. Even with Bethany's constant pretenses and acts
previously, she had ignored them all. Had it not been because Bethany had gotten so shameless and
insisted on provoking her, she would not have retaliated against the White family.
Now that she has returned, she can flaunt whatever she wants to her heart's desire. She can't possibly
be thinking of getting up to her same old tricks, can she? Even if she wants to, Alexander wouldn't be
willing, right?
Katherine suddenly speared a piece of apple and held it to Sophia's lips.
Sophia dipped her head and looked at Katherine, then opened her mouth and ate the apple.
While they chatted, the housekeeper came in with a nutritious soup for Katherine.
Joshua had specially hired a nutritionist who was good at cooking delicious soups for postpartum
convalescence. There was a different one every day, and that day was tomato soup. Katherine lifted
the lid and glanced at Sophia. “Want to try some?”
As the steam wafted toward her, Sophia caught a whiff of what seemed like the smell of tomato. It
made her stomach churn, so she shook her head. “No, thanks. You can have it.”
“The soup this nutritionist makes is quite tasty. Are you sure you don't want to try some?” Katherine
narrowed her eyes and eyed Sophia suspiciously. “You and Alexander are preparing to conceive, no?”
Sophia could not help shooting her a sidelong glance. “You've become increasingly shameless.”
“Hehe! I've already given birth to a baby, so it goes without saying that I've grown a thicker skin too.”
Surprisingly, Sophia failed to come up with a retort. She chuckled and said, “Just drink your soup.”
Katherine took a sip of the soup. It's even better than the soup yesterday! How is it that Soph doesn't
know how to appreciate such good stuff?
Thinking Sophia's reaction was simply because she had never tasted the nutritionist's cooking, she
spooned up some of the soup and held it right before her friend.
A wave of nausea washed over Sophia when she breathed in the smell. She quickly turned away and
retched a few times.
“No way. Does it smell that bad?” Katherine asked, stunned. She looked down, lifted up the bowl of
soup, and sniffed at it carefully. “There's no bad smell. I actually think it smells quite fragrant.”
Sophia moved a little more to the side so that she was further from Katherine before replying,
“Something in it smells gamy.”
That made Katherine starts to doubt herself. She lowered her head and took another sniff. “There's
nothing. The cook has prepared it quite well. I don't smell it at all. You're acting strange, Soph. You've
never been so picky before.” As she was speaking, a thought suddenly occurred to her. She stared at
Sophia in disbelief. “Soph, are... are you pregnant?”
Hearing that, Sophia was also stunned. “I... I don't think I've had my period this month.”
Having known Sophia for so long, Katherine was familiar with her friend's menstrual cycle. After
graduating from university, Sophia would get her period regularly every thirty days between the third to
the fifth day of every month, and it had been the same for many years.
However, now that it was almost the end of the month and Sophia had not gotten her period yet,
Katherine instantly grew excited. “Y-Your period is already half a month late! You're usually very
regular. Do you want to do a test? I still have the pregnancy test kits I bought previously.”
She was over the moon. I badly wanted a daughter, but I had a son instead. Now that Sophia's
pregnant, how amazing would it be if she gave me a goddaughter!
As the realization dawned on her, Katherine could not care less about drinking the soup anymore. She
quickly slipped on her house shoes and ran to get the pregnancy test kits.
Sophia was not aware of that. She had merely chalked it up to a disrupted menstrual cycle, although
she had no idea what the cause of it could have been.
However, now that Katherine had pointed it out, she realized there had been quite a long delay in her
period.
In truth, Sophia had been thinking of discussing with Alexander about having a baby ever since
Katherine had given birth to Lewinn. However, she felt rather shy about it and did not know how to
broach the subject with him.
But since both of us lead healthy lifestyles and are physically fit, maybe my late period is really
because I'm pregnant.
Soon, Katherine returned and stuffed two pregnancy test kits into Sophia's hand. “Quick, go and do the
test!”
“Isn't it more accurate to do it in the morning?” Sophia asked in a rare show of embarrassment. I don't
think I can pee on a stick right now.
“It has been over half a month, which means you could be forty days pregnant. Technology nowadays
is very advanced. It'll be able to tell if you're pregnant. Hurry up!”
“I don't have the urge to pee...” Sophia said while clutching the pregnancy test kits.
“Oh! You should've said so earlier! Come on. Drink this.”
As Sophia stared at the tall glass of water and took it helplessly, she could not help thinking she was
not a water pipe. It was not as though she would have the urge to empty her bladder right after
downing the water. “Why do you keep looking at me? Your soup is getting cold. Aren't you going to
finish it?”
Katherine was buzzing with excitement, but it was true that the soup was going to go cold soon. She
picked it up and drank it in one go.
Once she had finished it, she asked Sophia, “Well? Do you feel like using the bathroom now?”
“Do you think I'm a water pipe?” Sophia rolled her eyes.
Katherine shot her a sheepish grin, then poured her another glass of water. “How about drinking
another glass?”
Sophia ignored her. About ten minutes later, she finally got up and went to the bathroom.
She was usually able to handle everything that came her way calmly, but when she saw the two lines
appear on the test kit, her hands trembled slightly.
I'm pregnant.
Outside the bathroom, Katherine could not wait any longer. Seeing that Sophia still did not come out
after a long time, she raised her hand and knocked on the door. “Soph, are you done? Why don't you
let me in first? I—”
The door opened before she could finish her sentence.
Sophia glanced at Katherine, then handed her the pregnancy test kit.
Katherine quickly took it. Lowering her head to check the results, she nearly jumped up and down with
joy. “Oh my gosh! Soph, you're going to be a mother! Ahh, I'm so happy! I'm going to have a
goddaughter!”
Her response amused Sophia. “How do you know it'll be a girl?”
“I don't care. It has to be a girl! She's going to be my goddaughter!” Although Katherine was over the
moon, she knew not to go overboard. “All right, all right. You should hurry up and share the happy news
with Alexander, then go to the hospital to check how far along you are and register your pregnancy.
Hurry along, now!”
She pushed Sophia out of the room. Sophia had no choice but to go downstairs with the pregnancy test
kit in her hand.
Downstairs, Alexander and Joshua would occasionally make remarks about the current economic
situation. When Alexander saw Sophia, he stopped talking.
Joshua also broke off and said, “I'm going up to check on Kath.”
He nodded to Sophia, then turned and headed upstairs.
Sophia and Alexander were the only ones left in the spacious living room, and her heart raced as she
approached him. “Alexander, I have some good news to tell you.”
He lowered his head and gazed at her, lifting a hand to smoothen the hair over her ear. “What is it?”
Raising her hand, she spread her fingers and held out the pregnancy test kit in the palm of her hand to
him. “You're going to be a father.”
