Sophia smiled. “I’m already here, Ms. Millar.”
“Okay!” Scarlett replied.
She hung up the phone and left the groceries on the table. Her throat and jaw were aching terribly
As she touched her neck, a wave of loneliness washed over ber. Derick had been ruthless, but she knew this pain was nothing compared to what she had to endure before.
She exhaled deeply as her gaze grew colder. She had faced countless challenges in her life, including heartbreak.
From now on, she decided that men would take a backseat Nothing would stand in her way of being a billionaire,
She poured a glass of water and drank half of it. Only then did the feeling of emptiness in her chest disappear. She thought her heart wouldn’t ache anymore, but it still did. Scarlett stuffed the groceries into the fridge, then took out the beet and set it in the pot to braise. It was a while before Sophia finally arrived.
The women in Scarlett’s life were all stunningly beautiful while the men were all tall and handsome. They were all blessed with good genes. Scarlett had raised them well since childhood.
Sophia was 24 years old and stood at an impressive 5’8” with a perfectly shaped face, beautiful eyes, red lips, and pearly white teeth.
She eroded a cold elegance while embodying a powerful and commanding presence,
Scarlett, on the other hand, was calm and reserved, with thoughts buried deep within. She appreciated the tranquil surroundings and could embrace solitude.
Trust didn’t come easily to her and she rarely let people into her life, except for those who had grown up with her. Vengeful and decisive, she was unyielding and unmatched in her strength among women.
As Scarlett and Sophia’s eyes met, Sophia noticed the bruises on Scarlett’s neck and immediately grew angry. “Ms. Millar, what happened to your neck?”
Scarlett’s expression darkened slightly but she smiled lightly. “It’s nothing, Sophie. I’m pregnant. From now on, you’ll stay here with me to take care of me.
“Arcange for trustworthy cleaning staff and a gardener to come by regularly. I’ll just be the two of us living here.”
Sophia looked at Scarlett’s belly in shock. Her figure was as perfect as ever and showed no signs of pregnancy.
“Ms. Millar, did someone hurt you? Who’s responsible for this? just say the word, and we’ll beat them to a pulp.” Sophia’s voice was filled with concern and gentle care, as if the was trying to soothe Scarlett’s pain.
Scarlett’s mood lightened considerably as a radiant smile brightened her beautiful face. “Sophia, what’s done is done. Don’t bring up the father of this child again. I’ll keep the pregnancy a secret, and when the baby turns three, he’ll be sent to the training base, just like I was.
Sophia was surprised but she also understood what Scarlett meant. With a faint smile, she said, “Ms. Millar, welcome back. We’ve all been waiting for your return. Scarlett fell a warmth spread through her once–frozen heart. “Alright, I’m going upstairs to rest. The best is being braised in the pot. Call me when it’s ready.” “Go ahead and rest. I’ll handle the rest. Sophia escorted Scarlett upstairs, tocked her in, and turned on the humidifier before quietly leaving the room. Scarlett settled into bed. She felt the weariness that came with pregnancy
She hadn’t expected to sleep through the entire night, but she did. Hunger woke her up before she freshened up and headed downstairs for breakfast “Ms. Millar, you were sleeping so soundly last night that I didn’t have the heart to wake you up. Breakfast is ready,” Sophia said.
Sophia was wearing her black business suit while smiling warmly at Scarlett
Starlett nodded and walked toward the table. She remembered how she used to wake up early every day to prepare breakfast for Derick
She would also rush home earlier than him to make him dinner. Her love for him had tumed her into a fool who was willing to do anything for him.
However, now they were nothing more than strangers Scarlett invited Sophia to join her for breakfast.
After they finished eating, Scarlett gave Sophia instructions Sophia, you’ll partner with William from now on. The two of you will be my secret guards. Investigate Alone’s situation. The Eternal Horizon printing has resurfaced and dangerous people are searching for it. You must be cautious
“Cindy and Liam will stay by my side as personal assistants.”
Sophia was pleased with the arrangement Cindy had a sheer tongue that could sway anyone while Liam was a top–notch hacker who was capable of creating impenetrable security for Scarlett.
“I have no oljertinis, Ms. Millar “Sophia smiled.
“Good” just then, Scarlett’s phone rang
She glanced at the screen and her expression med grim abrupthe
