Chapter 268: Tommy is a Jinx

"Bobby, even though Emily is mean and unreasonable, Tommy is your child. Emily will definitely use Tommy to threaten you in the future."

Sophia said this on purpose, looking aggrieved, but in her heart, she was worried that if Bobby got divorced and the child stayed with him, it would affect her interests.

"Sophia, you don't know, our whole family doesn't want that child, he..."

Bobby stopped suddenly, looked around, and hesitated to continue.

Sophia noticed that Bobby was hiding something and immediately shook his arm, acting coquettishly, "What's wrong with Tommy? Tell me! How can you keep secrets from me when my heart is all for you?"

"Okay, okay! I'll tell you! But you have to let me kiss you first."

Bobby shamelessly made his demand.

Sophia, eager to find out, immediately gave Bobby a quick kiss.

Bobby, satisfied, lowered his voice and said, "When Tommy was born, my parents consulted a fortune teller they knew. The fortune teller said Tommy would bring misfortune to our family!

The fortune teller advised my parents to stay away from Tommy, so my parents don't like him."

What Bobby didn't mention was that because his older brother's family had two girls, his parents, who favored boys over girls, didn't like them either. They hadn't even seen those two children.

Instead, they helped raise the child Nina had.

"So that's how it is..."

Sophia hadn't expected Bobby's parents to be so superstitious.

But their superstition worked in her favor. Otherwise, if they insisted on having a grandson, it would divide her benefits.

"Bobby, you poor thing. Emily is so mean and overbearing, and Tommy is a bringer of misfortune. Aren't you afraid I might be your misfortune too?"

Sophia coquettishly touched his face.

Bobby felt a wave of emotion.

"If I have bad luck because of you, I am willing."

Bobby stared at Sophia's neckline, catching a glimpse of her alluring, fair skin.

Thinking of Emily's tanned face and bloated body made him feel nauseous.

He seemed to forget that Emily's figure used to be as good as Sophia's.

It was only because of childbirth that her body changed. Taking care of the child alone, eating irregularly, and hormonal imbalances led to her weight gain.

As for her tan, it was from taking Tommy out for walks, and she was too frugal to buy sunscreen.

"You're so annoying, always bullying me."

Sophia slapped Bobby lightly, then suddenly thought of something, her eyes dimming and her expression turning sorrowful.

"By the way, my case is going to court at the end of the month. What if I get detained or sentenced? I'm so scared!"

Sophia was thinking of settling with the other party, even if it meant giving more money. The other party drove a car worth less than $30,000, so they were probably not wealthy. If she offered more money, she could definitely settle it.

But the person to give the money would have to be Bobby.

Bobby pulled Sophia into his arms and comforted her, "Don't worry, I have a way. I won't let you go to jail."

Bobby had secretly arranged for some people to find out about the other party before the court date. He planned to have some thugs scare the couple by blocking their car, forcing them to settle. Otherwise, they would harass them constantly.

Most people are afraid of trouble and would agree.

"Bobby, I'll leave it to you then." Sophia, getting the answer she wanted, smiled in satisfaction.

At the largest flower wholesale market in Bright City, Luna directed Charles to park the car. After getting out and walking a few steps, Luna suddenly turned around.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing her turn back, Charles also stopped and looked back.

"I feel like someone is following me," Luna said suspiciously.
