Get you in my arms novel Chapter 20

"Sophia, how about moving to my place?"

"We haven't agreed yet." she choked up. They had agreed at the beginning that they would protect each other and keep their first time at their wedding night, but she didn't expect he still... Although she knew that John had been cheated, she still felt wronged. "It's far from my company. Let's talk about it after I get my driving license." She found an excuse randomly. After all, she had to pay off his debt first.

"Then wait a little longer. But you are not allowed to leave tonight."

At this moment, the doorbell rang. Having no time to answer it, John hoped that the visitor would ring a few times and then leave. However, the doorbell kept ringing.

"Damn it." He cursed, "wait for me. I'll be back soon."

Looking out of the peephole, he saw his mother and Ella, "damn it!" He frowned and sighed helplessly. He had no choice but to let her hide herself for a while. She picked up the clothes and hid them in the closet.

"John, what are you doing? Why do you take so long?" The moment Mrs. Xu came in, he looked around, fearing that his son would hide a girl.

"Mom, I'm sleeping. What are you doing here at this late hour?" John said discontentedly. What he was most annoyed about was that Ella came with him.

"Ella, I have something to tell you." Smiling, Mrs. Xu held her in her arms, as if she were a fragile object.

"I was drunk that day, so I didn't know anything. I don't know what to say." John said impatiently.

"John, I'm pregnant!" Ella put a list in front of him.

"No way!" He had a heart attack.

"Ouch!" she cried out as if her heart had been punched hard.

"You must be kidding me. The result is clearly positive. I am expecting to have a grandson." Mrs. Xu grinned, totally ignoring that her son shaped face was twisting. He kept looking at the wardrobe. Maybe Sophia was so sad. How should he face her now? He scratched his head in distress, and suddenly grasped the shoulder of Ella, "You have an abortion! Abortion!" He was almost shouting, which scared her out of her wits. She hastily turned to help.

"John, what are you talking about? Let go of her!" Mrs. Xu pulled her son away and said, "I've already proposed in Ella's family. You'll get engaged to you this week and hold your wedding at the end of next month!"

These words were like a bullet hitting Sophia's heart, and she suddenly had a kind of despair and fear that she had never experienced before. 'God, are you crazy? Why do you want to make Ella pregnant? Why do you always torture us instead of giving them good days?' thought she. Both John and Sophia felt the same way, so he didn't know what to do at the moment. "Mom, can you stop forcing me?" he asked

"John, you have done it yourself. Now you have to admit it. She must give birth to the baby. You must marry her." Mrs. Xu said stubbornly, leaving no chance for her son to negotiate.

John sat on the sofa in a fret. He covered his head with his hands and said nothing. There was a triumphant look in Ella's eyes. Ever since she was young, she had always been able to get what she wanted, and now she also got what she wanted.

After they left, Sophia opened the door of her cabinet and walked out. John ran to her and gave her a big hug. "What should I do now, Sophia? What should I do?" He felt at a loss and his mind was in a mess.

Without moving a muscle, she was too weak to utter a word.

Time passed slowly in the deathly stillness.

There was a trace of decisiveness in Sophia's eyes. She had already thought of a countermeasure. She was naturally calm in the face of danger.
