Chapter 84 I'm Not Your Husband
He sneered, squinting at her.
Sophia covered her mouth and nose, feeling a bit awkward. "What are you looking at? Did I say something wrong?"
"That dress doesn't suit you," Nathan said indifferently. "Emily's beauty isn't something you can imitate. You don't look good in a white dress."
Sophia felt exposed in her little scheme and grew irritated. "Nathan, my parents are coming today, and I don't want to argue with you anymore. I like this dress, and I'm going to wear it to meet my family."
Nathan shrugged indifferently. "Do as you please."
Then Nathan walked past her directly into the living room, sitting on the sofa and watching the morning news.
Suppressing her inner dissatisfaction, Sophia walked over to him and said, "Nathan, my parents are coming for the first time today. Let's go greet them at the door together."
Without lifting his head, Nathan replied, "I'm not going. I want to watch the news."
"You're my husband and the father of my child. You won't even greet my parents?" Sophia pressed.
Finally tearing his gaze away from the TV, Nathan looked at her with cold, sharp eyes. "I'm not your husband."
Sophia sneered, "My parents are about to arrive, and you're still thinking about maintaining a relationship with Emily? Nathan, my father came to work at your company for my sake. If we don't get married, he can go to any other company."
Carol hurriedly intervened, pulling Sophia aside. "Be careful, dear. Don't get angry."
"And you, Carol," Sophia glared at her. "When I was lying alone in the hospital needing a blood transfusion, where were you? Why didn't you find a way to get me the blood? You want an heir, don't you? Emily can't have children, only I can. How have you treated me?"
"Shut up!" Nathan slammed the remote control down forcefully, shattering it instantly. Pointing at Sophia, he said, "Yes, Reed Group relies on your father, but if you dare to talk to my mother like that, get out of here right now!"
Sophia's eyes welled up with tears instantly, too scared to speak.
At that moment, the doorbell rang.
Ding ding, ding ding—
"Oh, they must be here. I'll go open the door!" Carol shoved a few tissues into Sophia's hand, whispering, "Quick, wipe away your tears. Don't let your parents see you upset. And Nathan, don't lose your temper."
Sophia waited for Nathan to come and support her, but he stood still. She gritted her teeth in hatred, turning away as tears streamed down her face.
The door swung open, and Carol greeted Logan Morgan and Grace with a beaming smile. "You must be Sophia's parents. Please come in."
