My Baby’s Daddy novel (Anastasia) novel Chapter 717

Chapter 717

Sophia‘s beautiful eyes narrowed. This man was admitting his mistake? It was her first time hearing that from him! 

“My family and I don‘t need your compensation.” Saying that, Sophia tightened her grip around her cup and bit her lip before continuing, “Also, I have something to confess, because I lied to you.” 

Arthur raised his eyebrows curiously. “What is it?” 

Sophia took a deep breath and fixed her eyes on the man opposite her. “I lost your family heirloom, and I can never get it back.” 

Arthur paused in surprise for a few seconds, while she lowered her head and waited for him to burst out in anger. She had prepared herself to bear his fury. 

“How did you lose it?” Unexpectedly, he only asked her a question calmly.

That‘s why I kept wearing it and hiding it under my collar. It was fine until I came back home.” 

“I didn‘t say you couldn‘t wear it,” Arthur said in a low voice. When he had inherited the necklace, she was the only other person except for him who had worn it, and Martha had said that the second person to wear the family heirloom could only be his future wife. That was why he was so surprised when he found out that this woman had worn it. 

“I know I shouldn‘t lie to you. When I said that I wanted to work for you for a year, it was just a half measure. I was afraid you‘d send my dad to jail again, so I thought that I could stay by your side for a year, then..” At this point, Sophia‘s pretty face turned red uncontrollably. 

Her original plan was pretty despicable in its own way for trying to make him fall in
