Chapter 384 Two Years Later
Drake felt sorry for Sophia. The society did not condemn sex before marriage. But in this society, it was
unacceptable for the powerful and wealthy to marry a lady whose premarital sex with another man was
made public. So, the exposure of Sophia's sexual relationship with Drake did have a negative impact
on her.
However, Drake also felt lucky. Had it not been for that, Sophia would probably marry Noah.
He could accept Sophia breaking up with him for the sake of her family. However, he couldn't sit and
watch her marry another man without doing anything.
"By the way, found all evidence?" Emma asked, knowing what he had been busy with recently.
"Ehn."
"When will you make a move?"
"Soon."
He would never let Olivia be at large. She thought she had succeeded in her plan, but it was also the
beginning of her ending.
Soon, the matter that Olivia murdered Emilia and her parents was exposed. No one had expected her
to be responsible for many criminal cases.
Besides, the Lane family was her maiden family. For interest, she had even killed her relatives. The
public was shocked.
When the policemen arrested her, many onlookers smashed garbage on her.
Olivia was like a drowning rat.
However, she must be punished. She couldn't do anything but go to the police station.
Soon, she was sentenced to death.
Receiving the court verdict, Olivia burst into tears and wondered why.
She was also worried about what her son could live on if she died.
Olivia wished to lodge an appeal, but Drake forbade her.
In the end, when she saw Drake, she snarled in hatred, "Drake, you heartless bastard!"
Drake replied expressionlessly, "You should feel lucky. If it weren't for Sophia, I wouldn't have dealt with
you in such a way."
He wanted to take her to a remote area, torture her, and let her be eaten by beasts.
However, he still expected Sophia to return to him one day, so he wished doing good deeds could
increase the possibility.
Olivia shot daggers at him. "I only regret letting you have something on me. I'm not afraid of dying, and
I'm so glad to know you cannot marry Sophia all your life. Ha-ha..."
"Even if I become a ghost, I'll watch you. I'll let you know how much you'll suffer when alive."
Then she committed suicide in Drake's presence.
Drake was surprised for a moment but returned to calm shortly after.
He had to admit Olivia's curse had disgusted him. He couldn't marry Sophia all his life, which would
make him suffer the most.
After returning home, Drake sent Roman to a mental hospital. Roman's situation worsened gradually.
The mental hospital wouldn't accept him if he weren't from the Riley family.
The Old Riley took another surgery, and the chip was taken out. He felt helpless when learning what
had happened to the Riley family.
He was aged, so what he hoped for the future also changed. Unlike before, he stopped pushing Drake
in his career. Instead, he wished to have great-grandchildren.
Earlier, he had accepted Sophia but didn't expect Drake to break up with her.
Although knowing Drake was frustrated, the Old Riley reminded him, "Drake, I know you love Sophia.
However, you must accept destiny. Many people are unlucky in this world and can't marry their beloved
ones. To our family, the offspring is important. If Roman hadn't done those stupid things, I could have
let him get married and have children. However..."
He broke off as Drake understood what he implied.
"Therefore, you are the only grandson who can have offspring in our family. You've broken up with
Sophia, but it doesn't mean you cannot find a new girlfriend. Think about it. You should be responsible."
Drake had listened to him in silence.
After the Old Riley finished his words, Drake looked at him and answered, "Grandpa, I've considered
this matter already. Aria will get married in the future. I can request her first child to take our surname,
Riley. Then the child will be the future heir of our family. If you doubt the child's competence, I'll teach
him or her personally."
"What?"
The Old Riley gaped at him in disbelief.
"Without Sophia, other women are the same to me. I feel disgusted seeing them, let alone marrying
them and giving birth."
"I know you'll object Aria's child to inheriting the Riley family, Grandpa. Not every family has sons in this
world. Some have daughters only. Also, it isn't unusual for females to do better than males in the
career."
"But, Drake..."
Before the Old Riley finished speaking, Drake gestured to him to stop.
"Enough. That's it, Grandpa. I'm busy. I gotta go."
The Old Riley collapsed on the sofa, feeling upset and disappointed. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
He wondered if it was karma of the Riley family for harming Sophia back then.
The Old Riley wished it could end soon.
...
Two years later.
"Twist your butt, Bonnie!"
"Whoa! You are so good at dancing, Bonnie. You lovely cotton ball!"
"Bonnie is so adorable. She's chubby and smooth. So cute!"
The Lawsons squeezed each other to hold the little girl.
However, the little girl named Bonnie threw herself into Sophia's arms and called her sweetly,
"Mommy!"
"Sweetheart."
Sophia felt her heart melting.
If she hadn't given birth to the baby girl, she wouldn't have known there would be such a lovely child in
this world.
"Mwah!" she pecked on the girl's pink cheeks.
"I also want to kiss Mommy."
Bonnie pecked Sophia's cheek.
The little girl was pretty with big, watery eyes, a delicate nose, and smiling lips. Her skin was smooth
and flawless. She was destined to be a beauty in the future.
Laura felt jealous. "Let Grandma hold you."
"Grandma!" Bonnie called her sweetly and pounced at her.
"My sweetheart!"
Laura held her tightly. Bonnie was the first grandchild, a sensible and good girl. Therefore, she became
the apple of the Lawsons' eyes.
