"You're despicable!" Sophia glared at Joseph, who had deliberately tried to harm her.
But she wouldn't let him see her weakness. A smile bloomed on her icy face. "Sorry to disappoint you, but they can't affect me."
"Is that so?" Joseph sneered. "Don't pretend. I saw the sadness in your eyes."
"You always have problems with your eyes," Sophia scoffed. "For example, you're even more promiscuous than Harper."
Joseph was furious at Sophia's sarcasm. "Sophia, stop pretending in front of me. Apologize now, or I'll spare no one in your family!"
Sophia laughed at Joseph. "Stop dreaming! I'm already married. You've lost our bet!"
"Married?" Joseph was stunned. He suddenly grabbed Sophia's arm as she tried to leave, his eyes burning with anger. "Where's your marriage certificate?"
Sophia was taken aback because the certificate was with Robert. "I didn't bring it with me."
Joseph sneered and mocked Sophia. "You're such a disgusting woman. You can't even produce your marriage certificate!"
"Gross." Sophia raised her hand to shake off Joseph. "Don't touch me."
"Admit defeat." Joseph tightened his grip on Sophia, his tone threatening. "Otherwise, you won't have a good ending."
"I'm right in front of you. If you have the guts, kill me now," Sophia's eyes were sharp and cold, her aura strong and fierce. "If you don't kill me today, I will make you regret it in the future."
"Just you?" Joseph looked disdainfully at Sophia. "Don't try to act tough in front of me. You don't have the ability to kill me, but I do. Besides, I know very well that as Joseph's fiancée, no one in River City dares to marry you!""Who said no one dares to marry me?" Suddenly, a clear and low voice, sharp as a knife, sounded from far to near.
Sophia was about to mock Joseph when she heard a voice and froze.
It was Robert.
Joseph was also taken aback as he recognized the voice from somewhere.
As he turned to look, a fist came flying towards his face.
The excruciating pain made him teary-eyed, and he instinctively took two steps back, releasing Sophia's hand that he had been holding tightly.
Sophia was stunned as she watched Robert, the CEO of the Miller Family Group, holding her in his arms, as if she were a precious treasure.
"You...," Joseph angrily looked at Robert, but his voice trailed off as he saw the man who had taken Sophia away from him.
Robert narrowed his phoenix-like eyes, his voice icy cold and filled with a declaration of sovereignty, "She is my wife."
All of Joseph's anger disappeared in the face of Robert's regal and cold demeanor.
Despite being beaten up by Robert, Joseph tried to maintain his composure and said, "Master Miller, Sophia is my fiancée. How can she be your wife?"
He acknowledged that Sophia was beautiful, but she was too ordinary for him to be interested in, let alone Robert. Robert's phoenix eyes were cold as he held Sophia's hand and lifted his other hand to tidy up her messy hair from the dispute with Joseph, making her look less disheveled.
Sophia's eyes were filled with surprise, but she deliberately showed a shy expression to Joseph.
Joseph clenched his fists tightly, his hands hanging down, and the sight of Robert and Sophia's affectionate behavior, which was only seen in lovers, stung his eyes.Robert's cold eyes fell on Joseph, and he warned in a low voice, "Joseph, no matter what kind of relationship you had with Sophia before, she is now my wife. This punch is just a lesson for you. If you dare to cause trouble for her again, I will crush the Mu family."
The competition between men always carried warnings and provocations. Joseph looked at Robert with a pale face.
"Why is it you?" he asked incredulously, "Sophia is my fiancée, and we're getting married tomorrow!"
In the whole River City, what kind of woman couldn't Robert find? Why did he have to take Sophia?
The bet between him and Sophia was that she had to say she was Joseph's fiancée before anything else. In this situation, Robert actually married Sophia, not only provoking but also trampling the entire Garcia Family underfoot.
Robert didn't even look at Joseph, his phoenix eyes fixed on Sophia beside him."How do you want me to deal with him?" he asked.
Sophia was taken aback. She wanted to tear Joseph apart, but didn't want Robert to get too involved in their affairs. After all, Robert was such a cold person who had already helped her once. They were in a contractual marriage, and it was best not to get too deeply involved.
"Let's go," Robert said, taking Sophia's hand.
"Master Miller, you can't take Sophia away. She's my fiancée!" Joseph tried to stop them urgently.
"A fiancée is not a wife," Sophia stopped and looked at Joseph, using Robert's words.
"Sophia, come with me. The wedding will continue tomorrow, and I'll give you anything you want," Joseph said, unwilling and angry, trying to keep her."Joseph, wake up." Sophia, with a nervous heart, deliberately showed a shy smile and kissed Robert on the chin.
Robert felt the warmth of Sophia's lips on his chin, making his eyes flash.
The next moment, Sophia leaned her head intimately on Robert's chest, her eyes mocking, "I'm married, you lost to me. As for tomorrow's wedding, you can marry whoever you want, and I'll be generous. I wish you a better and better wedding, with no children or grandchildren."
Joseph's face turned pale and green.
"Sophia!" He was angry.
"Honey, let's go home. Don't waste time with this stinky man." Sophia smiled sweetly and coquettishly at Robert.
Joseph was about to go crazy with anger. This woman's way of seducing men was really powerful!
At this moment, Robert glanced deeply at Sophia and took her to his car.Sitting in the back seat of the car, Sophia turned her head and looked at Joseph with hatred under the street lamp.
She knew that with Joseph's arrogant personality, even if he knew he was no match for Robert, he would not give up.
The feud between the three of them was destined to continue.
As Joseph's figure disappeared, Sophia's heart finally settled.
It was only then that she realized that Robert had let go of her hand at some point.
"Master Miller, thank you for resolving the situation and for accompanying me in this little act," she expressed her gratitude. "Did you come to find me for something that needs my help?"
Robert's face was hidden in the shadows, and his demeanor exuded a coldness that kept people at bay.
Sophia waited for Robert's response, but he remained silent. She looked out the window and asked, "Master Miller, where are you taking me?"
Robert still didn't say anything.
When the car finally stopped, Sophia was surprised to find herself at an estate.
Robert got out of the car first.
Sophia hurriedly followed and asked, "Master Miller, where are we?"
She still had to go back to her rented apartment to pack her things and move out, to avoid Joseph's continued harassment.
Robert remained silent.
Sophia hurriedly followed behind Robert, continuing to ask, "Master Miller, what do you need me to do?"
Just as she finished speaking, Robert suddenly stopped in his tracks, causing her to bump into his back and wince in pain.Ouch.
Is Robert's back made of iron? It's so hard.
At that moment, Robert turned his head to look at Sophia, who was grimacing in pain. A hint of amusement appeared in his eyes, and he was about to speak when...
"Young master, you're back." A shrewd-looking man with a square face, Uncle Mark, walked respectfully to Robert's side. He unexpectedly glanced at Sophia and asked, "Young master, who is this?"
"Sophia," Robert's voice was cold as he spoke, "my wife."
Uncle Mark was taken aback, but then his face lit up with joy. "Young master, this is the first time you've brought someone back. Madam will be very happy to know."
As he spoke, he turned to Sophia and respectfully said, "Madam, welcome home to Sunset Villa."
"Thank you." Sophia's gaze fell on a person hiding behind the butler, whom she didn't recognize. "And who is this behind you?"
Uncle Mark saw the look in Sophia's eyes and reached behind him to lead the child out.
"Little master, this is your wife, the lady. From now on, she will be your mother."
Sophia's smile froze on her face, and she was dumbfounded.
What?
Mother?
Isn't Robert single?
She was going to be a stepmother as soon as she got married?!
