Chapter 556

Sophia's cheeks flushed when she lifted her head and met Alexander's gaze. Hubby? Why does itsound natural when others call their husbands that? That's something I can only whisper instead ofsaying out loud. Does Alexander really want me to call him that from now on? I can't do that.

Sophia averted her gaze and pretended not to have heard what he said. “It's getting late. I'm going totake a shower.”

Sophia tried to rise to her feet after saying that. However, before she could, Alexander pulled her hand,and she ended up falling back down.

He wrapped his arm around her waist as she sat on his lap. At that moment, her face was just inchesaway from his.

They were so close to each other that Sophia could feel Alexander's breath on her cheek and hercheek burning up.

“Alexander,” she called out with a smile.

However, she noticed the intense passion in his dark eyes.

Sophia was stunned for a moment. In the next second, Alexander pressed his cheek against hers andwhispered next to her ear in a deep voice, “Darling.”

Sophia blinked in surprise. By the time she regained her senses, Alexander was already kissing her onher lips.

Alexander's lips were burning, but as it turned out, Sophia could feel that his entire body was heatingup.

The temperature in the home theater continued to rise, and the initially quiet room was filled withsounds of heavy breathing.

Aroused by Alexander's deep voice, Sophia shut her eyes and wrapped her arms around him.

Meanwhile, unlike Alexander and Sophia, who were about to have a steamy moment together, Shilohfelt rather troubled.

Shiloh had had a good laugh when he went to Mirage with Heath and bumped into Alexander andSophia.

As a matter of fact, he was still in a very good mood.

However, everything changed when Nina showed up.

Throughout Shiloh's years of dating and fooling around, his relationship with Nina was his worst andmost embarrassing experience. Not only was he deceived by her innocent appearance, but he wasalso fooled by her body, which had undergone surgical makeovers.

Shiloh had started dating when he was fifteen and lost his virginity when he was seventeen. As asupposedly experienced player, he had told his friends Nina was definitely an exception.

Little did he expect her to humiliate him not long after that.

It was a massive blow for him because he had lost his pride in the process. Even people who weren't inthe industry knew he had been fooled.

The news about Nina was all over the internet, and Shiloh had seen all of it.

He forbade the people around him to mention Nina when he broke up with her.

He was utterly embarrassed.

Yet, to his surprise, Nina still had to the courage to look for him.

When Shiloh and his friends were exiting their private room, Nina showed up out of nowhere andasked, “Mr. Chambers, can I have a word with you?”

As Nina spoke, she was staring at him with her teary eyes. Her light makeup and big doe-like eyescould melt any man's heart.

Sadly for her, however, Shiloh was having none of it. He could be cold and cruel if he wanted to be.

He had always been a prideful man, so he couldn't forgive Nina for humiliating him.

At that point, Shiloh wanted nothing more than to never see her again in his life.

Yet, she just had to show up before him and ask if she could have a word with him.

Fortunately for her, Shiloh would never hit a woman. Otherwise, he would've punched her there and

then.

Shiloh threw Nina a glance and walked past her, his face contorted.

Nina instinctively tugged on his shirt as she used to when she saw him ignoring her.

Shiloh felt it and shoved her aside. “Don't touch me!”

Nina didn't expect him to react so violently, but perhaps a part of her was hoping for that to happen.The moment Shiloh reacted, she threw herself onto the ground.

Nina didn't say anything but merely let out a gasp and let her tears stream down her cheeks.

One of Shiloh's friends teased, “Low, weren't you a gentleman back then?”

Shiloh hated Nina even more when he heard those words. “I didn't even use any strength! She must'vethrown herself onto the ground.”

Nina's expression changed slightly when she heard that. However, she quickly regained hercomposure and continued her pitiful act. While biting her lower lip, she rose to her feet and said, “Mr.Chambers, I just want to say a few words. I'll leave once I'm done. If you don't want to talk privately, I'llhave no choice but to say those words here.”

Shiloh didn't know what Nina wanted to say, but he knew his friends would make fun of him if they wereto hear her. Thanks to Nina, I'll be the butt of a joke my entire life. I don't want her to make it worse.

He suppressed his anger and said, “Come with me.”

With that, he led Nina into the private room that he and his friends had been in moments earlier.

Nina cried even harder after she followed him into the private room.

However, it didn't work on Shiloh. Instead, he found it funny when he saw her cry. “That's enough. Youract won't work on me. You love acting, don't you? But why have your performances been anything butgreat?”

Upon hearing that, Nina was caught in a dilemma. Should I or should I not continue?

A couple of seconds later, Nina wiped her tears away and said, “Mr. Chambers, I know I shouldn't havelied to you. But my feelings for you are genuine. I didn't get into a relationship with you for your moneyand status. I fell for you when I first saw—”

“Oh, cut it!” I must have been blind. Those petty tricks won't work on me anymore. “Just save yourbreath if that's what you want to tell me. Nina, have some shame, will you? I've been generous enoughnot to ask you to return whatever I've given you. Get straight to the point, and don't waste my time. I'mleaving if I hear another nonsensical word coming out of your mouth. Also, if you ever look for meagain, I'll make you regret knowing me!”

Nina was dumbstruck because she had never seen Shiloh acting that way. Looking pale, she said, “I'mpregnant, Mr. Chambers.”
