Pampered by Billionaires after Being Betrayed novel Chapter 12

Chapter 12 Who Bullied You
Sophia stood up slowly, adopting a soft demeanor, and came over affectionately to hold Emily's hand. "Emily, don't be angry. Carol is just worried about me. You know, I'm carrying the heir of the Reed family in my belly."

Why don't you go compete for an Oscar? Emily felt thoroughly disgusted by Sophia.

Carol, upon hearing Sophia's words, became even more infuriated. She pulled Sophia protectively behind her and pointed at Emily's nose. "I just can't stand her! She married into the Reed family on the pretext of old Mr. Reed's will, and for four years, she couldn't even bear a child. Is she trying to ruin the Reed family with her barrenness?!"

"Carol, calm down. It's not Emily's fault she can't conceive. She didn't do it on purpose..."

"My dear Sophia, why are you so kind-hearted? Even though Emily bullies you like this, you still speak up for her? Let me tell you, there are such despicable people in this world. You're good to them, and in the end, they'll turn around and bite you! You foolish child..."

Emily looked at Carol and Sophia coldly, feeling nauseated.

"Alright, whatever issues you two have, it's none of my business," Emily interrupted them. "I've signed the divorce agreement. We have no more ties."

Carol wanted to say more but was stopped by Sophia.

She chuckled and said, "Emily, Nathan isn't home today. The divorce agreement is in the bedroom upstairs. Come with me."

She had lived in this house for four years.

Every corner, every tile, she knew them all.

The bedroom, once hers, was now being led by Sophia.

"Here it is, take a look. If you have no objections, just sign it."

Sophia handed her a stack of documents.

Emily glanced over it briefly. There weren't many clauses in this document, but it clearly stated that the Reed family's property had nothing to do with her.

That was fine. She had never intended to take money from the Reed family anyway.

"Where's the pen?"

Sophia sat on the edge of the bed and pointed to the desk nearby. "Over there."

Emily glanced at her, knowing she was deliberately making things difficult, but she didn't want to drag it out any longer. She walked straight to the desk.

The pen was placed right in the center of the desk, with a big red wedding invitation underneath.

She lowered her gaze, picked up the pen, and signed her name. "Done, satisfied?"

Sophia smiled brightly and looked over her signature. "Satisfied, of course I am. It's best if you can come to terms with it. Nathan said your inability to conceive is deceitful. He originally wanted you to compensate with a million in damages. It was me who spoke up for you in front of him, that's why he relented. Anyway, we're still relatives. I couldn't bear to see you homeless and burdened with debts."

Emily said, "So you think I should thank you?"

"I've saved you a million in debt. Shouldn't you be grateful?"

Emily sneered, "If he wants money, tell Nathan to come ask me himself."

Every minute spent in this bedroom felt suffocating to her. Emily didn't want to stay any longer. She turned around and left.

"Wait—" Sophia stopped her, "I forgot to tell you, Nathan and I are getting married next month."
