Chapter 11: 10

Sophia had come to the supermarket and when she saw the sanitary napkins she felt something was amiss. She quickly took her phone to check her period tracker and realized her period was late. She was so busy with work that she did not notice her cycle had been delayed by 45 days.

Sophia went to the next aisle and instead added a pregnancy kit in her trolley.

When Aiden came home he noticed Sophia was very quiet, he thought she was thinking about work-related stuff and decided not to disturb her. But his wife continued to be in her own world even during dinner. When he tried to make small talk, she just nodded her head. If it was work related then there was no need to look as if the world had collapsed. Sophia always consulted him if she needed an opinion about work as he was more experienced and handled business in different domains.

So why was she not telling him this time even when he repeatedly asked if there was any problem. Did she mess up a big deal? Perhaps lost millions, or is the company going to be bankrupt? It's fine if all this was true because her husband is Aiden Cooper the aristocratic heir and he has lots of money. So he can afford for Sophia to go bankrupt.

"Sophia what happened to you?" Aiden asked loudly as she did not respond the first time.

"Huh..what?" Sophia was confused.

"You're eating broccoli," Aiden mentioned.

"Yes, what's wrong with it," Sophia frowned.

"You hate broccoli, and tonight you ate two servings of it," Aiden knew Sophia never ate broccoli but when the maid served it on the table, she just quietly started eating them.

"Oh I did not notice. I'm full," Sophia stood up and went to their bedroom.

Aiden knew he had to have a serious talk with his wife regarding what had upset her so much that she forgot everything else around her

Aiden went to his study room to attend a video meeting that was hosted by another party from a different time zone. It was daytime for them, so it was more convenientIt took around two hours for the meeting to end, and by the time he returned to the bedroom he found Sophia was already asleep. He kissed her lips and took her in his arms, adjusting the blanket thinking he will talk to her tomorrow.

The next day, Aiden felt someone touching his face, yet he continued to sleep but the other party's actions became more bolder which gave him no choice but to open his eyes .

He saw Sophia was wide awake and gently tracing his lower lip.

"Why are you awake…," Aiden paused and looking at the walk clock continued, "it's just 5 in the morning."

"I am not feeling sleepy," Sophia said as she roamed her hands on his hard chest.

"Then let's do something interesting,"Aiden put his hands under her t-shirt but Sophia held his hand, not letting him go further.

"Not now, I have to talk about something important,"Sophia said with a serious face. Aiden's playfulness was gone and he leaned back on the head board thinking at last she was ready to open up.

Sophia took deep breath and finally said, "I'm pregnant,"

Aiden was shocked and his body became rigid. "How …", a single word escaped from his mouth.

Sophia understood what he meant, in fact she was also in a dilemma when she saw two bars on the pregnancy kit yesterday. They had discussed that they were not ready for a child yet and have always been careful. This unplanned pregnancy has made her lose her mind.

After thinking about when it all happened, she remembered the one time they were so passionate that they ignored everything.

"It was on mother's birthday..," Sophia trailed off. Aew weeks back it was Mrs. Cooper's birthday and she threw a grand party to commemorate it. Sophia was looking so sexy in a purple gown it was difficult for Aiden to keep his hands off her. They both had sneaked away in the middle of the party and made love. Aiden had not carried any protection and was hesitant for a second but Sophia did not like him stopping things in the middle and told she will take a pill the next morning.

So Aiden had fulfilled her wish by making love multiple times. The next day she needed to fly down to a different city for the promotional event of her new beauty product and had completely forgotten to take the pill.

"You forgot to take the medicine," It was a statement rather than a question.

"Aiden look I am so sorry ..I don't know how I can be so stupid," Sophia apologized.

"It's fine," Aiden replied.

"Look I did not mean things to…."Sophia was cut off in the middle.

"I understand, you don't need to explain," Aiden said sternly.

"No you don't understand, if you have something to say …just say it. Your silence is making me feel worse," Sophia snapped.

Aiden was dumb founded, not understanding the reason for his wife's sudden outburst. When he continued to be silent, tears filled Sophia's eyes and with a shaky voice she spoke, "It's fine if you don't want this child. I will look after it so that it will not be a hindrance to you".

"Sophia what are you talking about?" This time it was Aiden's turn to get angry.

"I will not abort this baby," Sophia said as tears fell on her cheeks.

"Enough! Stop talking," Aiden said harshly as he pulled her into his arms. Sophia leaned her head on his shoulder and let the remaining tears fall .

"Shh..stop crying. This is also my child, why will not want it," Aiden said, soothing her back.

"But you didn't look happy…", She said between her hiccups.

"I was just surprised, that's it. I needed some time to process. I guess my reaction made you misunderstand," Aiden could not get enough of Sophia so he thought having kids will steal Sophia's attention from him. They have been married for around a year and half and he felt it was too early to add another member to the family.

"I know you said no to kids for another year, but you may have changed your mind after seeing your friends having them," Sophia said.

"Those three guys have been married longer than we have. Tristan and Blake even dated before marriage. I was so worried you may slip through my fingers that I needed to cut short our courting period and put an official stamp next to your name quickly," Aiden replied.

"Oh, even if there is a baby coming, I always have time for you and you will remain my priority," Sophia assured him.

"So yesterday you were stressed out because of this pregnancy. Remember I love you and will always support your decision, so please talk to me if anything is bothering you. I am genuinely happy for this child's arrival. This child is important to me as much as you are," Aiden tightened his arms around her.

Sophia snuggled into his chest feeling blissful about their child.
