Drenched in Love novel Chapter 22

On the 14th day after the blood test, Anthony Johnson, the president of the Johnson Group from Europe, arrived at ST.

The plane was originally scheduled to leave at 11:30 a.m., but the plane stopped for some time because of bad weather. It arrived at 4:30 a.m. in the next day, by which time, Jennifer had been waiting for nearly 20 hours with several henchmen in the PR department.

Jennifer saw Sophia's pale face and asked her in a low voice. Sophia shook her head, “I am ok, may I had drunk cold water, so I have stomachache.”

Jennifer considered Stephen's attitude towards her, so she did not tell her to go back to have a rest.

By the time Anthony and his people checked into the hotel, it was time to go to work.

Jennifer gave her PR colleagues half a day off and told them to go back and rest. Sophia went directly to the company because there were documents to be finished.

She had breakfast in the company's restaurant and returned to the office. She Stephen's secretary came to her.

President's office on the 28th floor.

Sophia went in, and Stephen was smoking, standing in front of the window with his back to her. The office was filled with smoke, and he almost could not be seen.

“Mr. Berry, you want to see me?”

Seeing Stephen did not speak, Sophia said.

Stephen did not speak, nor did he turn around.

After a while, Stephen turned around after finishing a cigarette. Looking at Sophia, he took out a document from the desk drawer and threw it on the desk. “I will take you to the hospital for a check-up later. If it is really confirmed that you have a child in your belly, this child...”

Before his words were finished, the phone rang, Stephen answered it. He took a look at Sophia and went to the rest room.

Sophia silently withdrew from the president's office, waiting outside.

There was no separate room outside the president's office, and all of his secretaries were sitting outside, waiting for Stephen’s call. Seeing Sophia standing at the door of the president's office, someone took a look at her and continued to work. Others huddled together and whispered things.

Sophia ignored then, lowered her head to look at the delicate marbles on the ground, from time to time pressed on her abdomen. Since yesterday, she had had pain in her stomach. She was not sure whether she ate something bad.

Sophia waited at the door for a long time, Stephen did not call her. She wanted to use the bathroom and went straight to the toilet. When she came back, Stephen had already sat in the boss chair waiting for her.

Stephen was cold and impatient.

Sophia wanted to explain, but Stephen interrupted her, “If you really have a child, you have to give birth to it.”

Sophia was stunned.

Stephen explained, “I will not let you have the child in vain. I will give you a sum of money and give the child to me when it is born. From then on, it has nothing to do with you.”

Sophia opened her mouth, “Mr. Berry......”
