The Ice-Cold Executive Gets A Wife - Chapter 50

Chapter 50 Being A Father

The student holding the skateboard stood there awkwardly and accepted Sophia’s criticism silently. He did not dare to refute her at all.

“… I’m sorry. I won’t make such a mistake again.” He looked at Sebastian carefully. “Shall I send you to the hospital?”

Sebastian saw that Sophia seemed cautious. She was not as arrogant as before, so his mood improved slightly. It was rare that he was so generous as not to pursue the matter. “There is no need.”

He glanced at Anita and Sophia and said calmly, “Anita, Uncle Raphael is coming back this afternoon. Remember to pick him up at the airport.”

Anita asked blankly, “Huh? Is he coming back? Why haven’t I heard from him… Wait, why do I have to pick him up?”

“Are you busy?” Sebastian asked back.

She wasn’t busy. After all, she had time to watch the competition.

Anita agreed aggrievedly. “What time will he arrive?”

“Five in the afternoon.”

After giving his instructions, Sebastian looked at Sophia again.

No matter what conflicts they had before, he blocked the skateboard for her. So, she had no reason to give him a hard time.

Sophia did not give him a hard time, but they had just had an unpleasant conversation after all. She did not know how to face him now.

It was a little awkward.

Sebastian did not break the awkwardness. He said calmly, “Be careful.”

It was unclear who he was speaking to. It could be Sophia or Anita.

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Sophia stared blankly at his back.

Anita whined and said sadly, “What? Why is my uncle coming back at this time? I was planning to go shopping with you at the baby products store!”

Sophia looked at the time. She smiled and said, “It’s still early. Let’s go after the competition. The baby is only a little over a month old. There will be plenty of opportunities to go shopping for the baby in the future. It’s more important to fetch your uncle.”

Anita vented, “He can go home himself. Why did Sebastian ask me to pick him up? He’s a grown-up. is he going to be lost?” That was true, but Anita still had to go to the airport to fetch him after watching the competition.

Sebastian, who was back in the car, only felt the pain when his back touched the seat.

He drove home, took off his clothes, and stood in front of the full-body length mirror in the bedroom to observe the injury. As he was hit in his back, he could only see a limited area. However, judging from the extent of his pain, the bruise could be huge.

The bedroom door was not closed properly. Joseph, who was on his way home, pushed the door open and walked in.

“Sebastian?” Joseph smiled. “I was wondering why the door was not closed. So you’re back.”

Sebastian was half-naked and looked at his elder brother in surprise.

Neither of them liked to go home. Sebastian was at work, and Joseph was with his girlfriend most of the time.

It was not always that they met each other at home at this time.

Joseph was six years older than Sebastian. Although they looked similar, their temperaments were very different. Joseph’s temperament was more stable and gentle than Sebastian’s cold arrogance.

Sebastian was leaning sideways. Joseph noticed that there was some bruise on his back. “What happened to your back?” “I accidentally bumped into something.”

He could not see the injury on his back, so he said it as if it was nothing, but Joseph could see it. He walked over and frowned. “I’ll send you to the hospital to get it checked. It looks very serious.”

Recalling that Sebastian was not one to show weakness, Joseph added, “I have something to do at the hospital anyway. So it’s not out of my way.”

Sebastian was surprised. “What do you have to do at the hospital?”

Joseph smiled, a little differently from his usual. It was evident that he was happy. “I’m planning to marry Trisha.”

Joseph was thirty years old this year. He had met his girlfriend Trisha last year. It was indeed time to get married.

Sebastian smiled. “Congratulations.”

After some thoughts, he felt it all a little strange. “You’re getting married. So why are you going to the hospital?”

Joseph smiled even more happily. “Trisha is pregnant. I’ll accompany her to the hospital for a checkup.” Other than happiness, there was also a hint of pride. He emphasized, “I’m going to be a father

soon!”

“This is indeed something worth celebrating.” Sebastian paused and thought of Sophia, who was also pregnant.

Being pregnant was not that bad. He was genuinely happy for Joseph, but if Sophia was pregnant, he couldn’t bring himself to feel happy at all.

Was it because he liked her a little?

Was it because that child had nothing to do with him?

But what did Sophia do wrong?

Now that he thought about it, what he said to Sophia today was out of line. He should have apologized to her.

But now that he blocked the skateboard for her, perhaps she would like him a little more now?
