After Having a Dream, I Became Pregnant with a Billionaire's Child-Chapter 234 - 229 New Dream
Chapter 234: Chapter 229 New Dream
Sophie Parker saw Emily Parker’s WeChat moments in the afternoon.
In that instant, her breath suddenly caught, and her hand holding the phone uncontrollably trembled.
She couldn’t believe her eyes. In that WeChat moment, there was Emily Parker and Carlos’s marriage certificate, red and glaring.
Emily actually married Carlos?!
That glaringly red certificate was so clearly displayed in the photo, there was absolutely no mistake.
Sophie knew that Emily had been secretly hooking up with Carlos, but she didn’t expect she would silently marry Carlos.
Sophie seeing this WeChat moment was quite a fluke.
Emily’s WeChat list was always simple; she hadn’t added many people.
Besides her friend Evelyn Hanson, and Carlos in the special group "Time," there was also the recently added Oliver Ross.
Adam Willow’s family had been long blocked by her, and Sophie and her mother had already been deleted from her contacts.
Only for Father Parker, because of her mother, Emily had just blocked his phone number but hadn’t had time to deal with his WeChat.
Unexpectedly, it was this slip that let Henry Parker see this shocking news.
When Henry came to the police station to question Sophie, Sophie saw this WeChat moment.
She couldn’t see Carlos’s WeChat moments, but Emily could post this moment, which meant Carlos agreed.
Long ago, in her dream where she married Carlos, Carlos had run away from the wedding.
Their marriage certificate was processed through connections by Father Parker.
It could be said that from start to finish, Carlos never agreed to get the certificate with her.
The coldness and neglect from him in the dream were now stabbing her heart like needles.
Henry roared furiously,
"You said Carlos didn’t fancy Emily? If he didn’t, why would he marry her?"
His face turned red from anger and quickly became livid. At this moment, he was filled with rage from Emily’s concealment.
All along, in Henry’s eyes, Emily was the daughter who did not achieve much, and her presence in this family was minimal.
Who could have thought that this daughter he never valued would leap into becoming the young lady of the Carter Family?
Thinking about this, greed flickered in Henry’s eyes. He thought, he was Emily’s biological father, painstakingly raised her. Now that she married into the Carter Family, shouldn’t the Carter Family support him?
But when he called her, he was blocked and couldn’t get through.
He feared that if he sent a message, Emily would block him again.
His eldest daughter married, and no one informed him; not even the basic betrothal gifts!
This made him feel humiliated, as though he raised a worthless child.
Sophie stood beside Henry, watching her father’s full calculations about Emily marrying into the Carter Family. She couldn’t help but curl her lips and said in a seasoned tone,
"Dad, do you really think being the young lady of the Carter Family is that easy?"
Her eyes narrowed slightly, her voice carrying a sour tone.
Recalling her days in a wealthy family, those long and lonely nights, the grievances of being looked down upon by her in-laws, and the bitterness of being ridiculed, Sophie’s eyes darkened.
No, since she had that prophetic dream, she would definitely not repeat the same mistakes. She would replace Emily and live a happy life.
She sneered inwardly; so what if Emily could get married?
Emily would end up just like Sophie, unable to escape the fate of having her husband snatched away.
In her view, Rainny White and Carlos had a deep relationship; Emily would eventually be taken away by Rainny, becoming a ridiculed widow of a wealthy family.
She had to quickly get out, and find a way to make Rainny work harder; as long as Rainny and Carlos have a substantive relationship, Carlos would definitely abandon Emily.
"What do you mean by this?"
Henry looked puzzled, staring at his younger daughter, not comprehending the intricacies of her words.
"Just watch."
Sophie glanced at the marriage certificate, seeing Carlos and Emily’s stiff and unnatural smiles in the photo. Anyone could see they weren’t a loving couple.
A contemptuous smile appeared on her lips, as if she had already foreseen Emily’s miserable future, the imbalance caused by jealousy in her heart slightly leveled.
"Dad, why did you come alone?
Where’s Brother Adam?"
Sophie grabbed Henry’s arm, comforted him a few words, then asked about Adam Willow.
Seeing Emily and Carlos’s marriage news, Sophie was first shocked, then felt a bit of hidden delight.
She secretly thought, Emily and Carlos getting married was good, it meant Emily and Adam would never have a chance again.
She silently calculated in her heart, realizing she also had to hurry and marry Adam Willow.
In Sophie’s mind, only by becoming Adam’s person and quickly having their child, could her future status as the wife of a wealthy man be secure and not taken by others.
"Dad, you must persuade Brother Adam more, let him settle the marriage soon. I... I really want to marry into the Willow Family quickly."
With that, she pretended to shyly lower her head.
Henry looked at Sophie’s eager and expectant face, feeling somewhat helpless, a trace of an awkward smile appearing on his face,
"Little Sophie, it probably won’t be easy to get engaged to Adam. You know, Dad hasn’t been doing well at work recently..."
He sighed slightly, his eyes revealing a hint of exhaustion. Someone like Henry, who had struggled in the official circles for years, could still sense Adam Willow’s true motive.
Adam approaching Sophie was just for the resources behind the Parker Family, to assist his personal career.
Now Henry was on a downward path, and that shrewd guy Adam might have already had other thoughts.
Henry knew clearly that Sophie was just a pawn used by Adam Willow, but he couldn’t tell his daughter the truth directly, fearing she couldn’t accept it.
Henry patted Sophie’s shoulder, comforting her,
"Let Dad settle things at work first, then he’ll talk to Adam. Maybe there’s still a chance."
Though he said this, he wasn’t confident; he recently got information that the disciplinary committee was investigating him. Henry really feared they’d find something on him.
Sophie pursed her lips for a while, suddenly said,
"Dad, give me your phone. I’ve thought of a way; once this is done, Brother Adam will surely marry me. And you can get promoted."
Sophie was determined.
These days in detention, she couldn’t sleep at first, but last night, she had another dream.
This time, the dream was much clearer than before.
She even dreamed that soon, there would be a massive financial storm in the country!
