Chapter 423: Stopping The Tragedy

Chapter 423: Stopping the Tragedy

It was still lunchtime this time of year.

-Mrs. Borges' house.

The butler followed what the nanny had told him and found out where Mariana was going. Although he didn't know why Mariana was leaving, he knew it couldn't be anything good.

Especially when Mariana was leaving in a hurry.

-Why didn't they stop her? -Leopoldo looked at the few people at the door and said angrily. Were all these people trash?

Leopoldo suddenly realized what was happening and Sofia approached Mariana to beg for mercy. In such a moment, Mariana had panicked and had gone to Sofia again. So what was the big possibility? -Drive, go to Rafael's house.

Realizing what was happening, Leopoldo closed the car window and drove off immediately.

The butler, who had remained in the same place, sighed inwardly. If something really happened to Mariana, everyone would be blamed. Leopoldo really cared about his wife.

At that moment, Sofia still didn't know anything.

Sofia's good mood began when Mariana promised to help her. That woman had said she would certainly help her. Leopoldo loved Mariana, so he would certainly listen to this woman.

Her Rafael was saved.

-Rafael, the food is ready, you serve it.

Sofia cooked, wanting to start training herself to be a good wife. As bad as she looked now, she still had a chance to change.

She was willing to make this change for the sake of her children and her husband.

-I have no appetite, you can eat alone.

Rafael watched the game on the big electronic screen and was suddenly a little bored too. There weren't many days left and he wanted to treat himself one last time.

The dish Sofia was cooking suddenly became tasteless.

She paused, ready to tell Rafael about her pregnancy. Rafael was an adult too and should be able to take responsibility. She left the last plate of food on the table and headed into the bedroom to pull out the checklist drawer.

-Rafael, I have something to tell you," Sofia stood in the doorway and called out to Rafael.

From the beginning, she knew Rafael was a man of little ability. From a certain point of view, Rafael could bring her nothing new.

But Sofia had to be with this man to make up for her previous lack.

-What's wrong? -Rafael glanced at her and answered softly.

His tone was still the same as before, nothing different. He had always been on the hypocritical side when it came to Sofia. When Sofia had no use for him, he would immediately walk away. There would be no exceptions to this sort of thing.

-I'm pregnant," Sofia took the checklist and walked in Rafael's direction.

After hearing this news, Rafael's heart felt as if it suddenly plummeted to a stop. It was as if for a split second, he couldn't understand what Sofia meant by pregnant. This woman was going to have her own child?

And yet, at a time like this.

-Don't be ridiculous -Rafael knew he wasn't dreaming and went on to say.

At times like this he didn't want to accept other burdens. Children are a burden to him.

-It's not a joke, look for yourself.

Sofia handed the report sheet in her hand to the man, her eyes full of complications. With all the things jumbled together, she didn't know if Rafael was sincere or untruthful with her. The man's eyes were like her own.

-I won't read it.

Rafael wouldn't accept it and, naturally, he wouldn't read the supposed report card. It didn't matter if what Rafael said was true or not, at this moment, he didn't want to accept it. -What do you mean? -Sofia asked, realizing that something was wrong.

The man simply did not want a child. Sofia was determined to have this child, but at that moment, Rafael had that attitude.

Indeed, she was frozen.

-I don't care if it's true or not, there's no way to accept it.

Rafael wanted to say something heavier, but the hurtful words got stuck in his throat and he didn't get to say them to Sofia.

From the beginning, Rafael was used to being subservient to Sofia.

This woman could give him the money talk without a second thought and could even clean up all his mess. Rafael knew that Sofia had begged Raul and also Mariana.

Even Mariana begged for her, so she could most likely save her own life.

Leopoldo could disregard anyone's feelings and ignore their words of affection. But only Mariana was Leopoldo's fault.

-Who are you not to accept that, after all I have given you, you will not even grant me the obligation to father my child? -Sofia stared at the other man and instantly snapped out of it.

The man did not want to have children.

-Not only this child, but also we will be separated.

When things came to a head, Rafael could only show his hand. It was inevitable that he would leave Sofia. He had already squandered almost all the money in Sofia's account.

The money that remained was enough for Sofia to make a living.

As for Rafael, he will go after the next target.

-Are you speaking humanely?

Sofia thought about how many times she had begged for help, and when things came to a head, it all became deserved. It was no wonder Raul was reluctant to help her, it turned out to be all for a reason. Rafael was not a man at all.

-Madam, a guest has arrived.

The maids in the house didn't know what was going on and rushed to inform Sofia.

"What guest? It was a bad time to come."

Sofia looked at the maid, not forgetting to ask:

-Who is it?

If it was her best friend, she wouldn't see her. Since she got home, her best friend hadn't stopped sending her messages asking how she was doing. She told her to be sure to let her know if she had any difficulties.

But who could be okay in this situation?

-Miss Ortiz," the maid lowered her head and spoke cautiously.

After her words, Sofia's and Rafael's eyes looked in unison at the maid. Miss Ortiz was none other than Mariana. At this moment, what was Mariana doing here?

-Quick, invite her in," Sofia hastened to bark.

But whatever she said, it always seemed wrong, so she simply got up and went upstairs herself, ready to go pick her up personally. Sofia was especially happy that Mariana could come.

For her, Mariana was a lifesaver.

-Yes," the maid nodded and prepared to leave.

As she turned around, the lights throughout the room went out. Sofia watched the lights go out in her house and her mind filled with confusion. The lights had never gone out in the house before, what was going on?

-Let go of me!

Rafael's voice appeared at first, causing Sofia's confusion.

So Mariana had come to take Rafael's life?

Sofia's mind was suddenly confused and she said in a bit of panic:

-Rafael, where are you? -Say something.

It didn't matter what Rafael's attitude towards the child was, what mattered was that he was the father.
