Devil CEO's Contract Lover novel Chapter 12

Sofia POV

I touched my belly, I couldn't feel the leap of life, the weight was too heavy and I suffered the denigration of my pride.

I never cried in front of Damon, at most I would be alone and silently sad.

I took the book in the study and read it in my room, and the words Damon said just now were in my ears, and each sentence was so hurtful.

There are two kinds of people in this world: those who admit their mistakes when they do something wrong, and those who do something wrong and gloss over it.

Damon belongs to the latter type, Linda also said that time will find his good?

Where's the goodness? He is purely a selfish man with no concept of affection!

He grew up without love? That doesn't excuse him from doing anything wrong, and I'm not going soft on that.

Damon POV

I pushed the door open and came in, a little upset that this room was no longer my private room.

Sofia was there with a famous book, and her attention was clearly not on the book.

"Books are for reading, not for your decorative use, and you don't need to read them in front of me to enhance your good opinion in my mind."

I said rightfully and sarcastically, meaning she was reading the book just to impress him!

She peeked her head out of the book, glared at me with blank eyes, and continued to return her eyes to the book.

"Sure enough you acquiesced." I mumbled, reaching out with my big hand and taking the book right out of her hand, "There's no need to pretend, I'm not going to be nice to you because of that."

She was furious, "I'm sure I'm going to get into a fight before I talk to you for a few sentences, you give me back the book, I don't want to talk to you!"

Was she pretending, or was it a true reflection of her?

But her indifference aroused my interest, how long can a woman be indifferent in front of the item?

Don't all women stick to me and offer themselves directly?

I said with amusement, "Anyway, this boring charade of yours has succeeded in attracting my attention."

"You said I put on a boring play?" Her tone was agitated, and the rise and fall of her chest quickened.

"To each his own, Mr. Rubinstein, you are not my type. our deal will end in nine months, need I remind you again?" She said indifferently.

Why could she say it so matter-of-factly? Shouldn't I be in control of the situation?

Compared to women her age, she always seemed aloof and thoughtful.

"Just be clear, you're used to living the good life, when it's time to go, you don't want to stay."

My thin lips rose slightly, and the expression that should have been a smile was so heartless.

"Mr.Rubinstein is funny, what's there to stay here? Any way you can get me born early, I'd appreciate it."

She continued, "I'm guessing you're getting more aggressive on me because you're now chagrined because you made a slight move on me two days ago that could have been a caregiver, I'm not your punching bag, I'm pregnant and I expect you to respect me."

Her words struck me as true in one fell swoop!

YES! I was guilt-tripping Tiffany, I couldn't do it by muddling through a large living person as if she was a normal person.

To be nice to her is another blow to Tiffany's heart, and she's not lacking in care!

"How do you expect me to respect you, and by what nasty means did you get people to fall into your trap? Including this baby, what means did you use to get it? Don't tell me that you didn't know to take birth control pills after sleeping together!"

How could a woman who is so psychologically mature not know this?

Since she knows how to make money with her body, she naturally knows how to protect herself!

She said, "Now that the wood has been laid, there's nothing we can do, isn't this the best state of affairs?"

She paused, though it was hard, "I can go to college after I have the baby, and you can marry Miss Tiffany."

"It's useless to take it out on me, I'm not your spouse who can put up with your tantrums, is there no one who dares to talk about this shortcoming of yours in front of you?"

Her questioning tone was torturing me! She was a bulletproof glass, and when she attacked me, she hurt herself instead.

Damon's eyes flashed dangerously as I pressed closer to her, and it seemed she wasn't afraid of me at all.

"It doesn't take an irrelevant person to judge whether I have flaws or not." I said coldly.

"That's another one of your flaws, not admitting to your flaws, you're not a good entrepreneur."

She turned around, walked to the king-size bed, and tucked herself in.

"If you're going to sleep in the den, take the door with you." She said as she slept under the covers.

I was already tired from work and with the guilt I felt towards Tiffany, I just wanted to taunt her.

I didn't think this woman would have the nerve to confront me so openly, no woman had ever dared to challenge my authority like that.

When Tiffany was in my presence, she would only faintly caution, not so blatantly.

"This is my room, and no matter how bad it is, it's not my turn to go out."

I walked towards the bathroom, having spent so much time interacting with this woman that I had forgotten my usual regular break times.

Sofia POV

I opened my eyes, my lashes were long and beautiful.
