“He’s yourfather?”
Drew’s brows jerk together as he follows my gaze to Henry, standing behind him, the silver flecks in his hair lit up beneath the fairy lights.
“Soph,” Henry snaps. “What the fuck are you doing here?” He tries to move closer, but Drew blocks him.
“Quit calling her Soph like you know her. And get out of her face. She doesn’t feel well. What the hell’s wrong with you?”
Drew turns back to me, his hands rubbing my upper arms. “I’ll take you home.”
“This is who you’re with now? Myson?” Henry spits out the last word like it’s poison.
My heart stops as I stare into Drew’s eyes.
I see the moment he understands what’s going on. The moment his beautiful face breaks. His pupils blow wide as he searches my eyes, his breath coming in short, shallow rasps, while mine stalls altogether. It’s the most gut-wrenching sight I’ve ever seen in my life, and I have to fight to keep my legs from buckling beneath me.
“Sophie?” The anguish in his gaze pleads silently with me to tell him that he’s wrong.
But I can’t.
“I… I had no idea.” My voice cracks.
“This is ridiculous. You can’t date my son!”
Henry grabs Drew’s shoulder and spins him around to face him.
“You don’t know what the hell you’ve done bringing her here,” he yells in Drew’s face.
“Me? Sounds like you’re the one who has some fucking explaining to do.” Drew’s voice is quieter than Henry’s, but the low hoarseness of it is a thousand times more menacing.
“Your mother’s inside,” Henry hisses, his eyes bulging.
“Don’t pretend you give a flying fuck about my mother when you’ve so clearly been cheating on her. Again.” Drew screws his face up and curses. “And withSophie.” His voice hints at cracking before he levels it out.
He turns to me, and his gaze softens immediately. “Tell me it’s not true.”
I swear my heart tears right down the middle as I look into clear blue, into that final glimmer of hope that I’m about to extinguish.
“I wish I could,” I choke. “I’m so sorry.”
“The ex you told me about, the one who was married. It’s him?” Drew jerks his head in Henry’s direction.
But I don’t need to say anything to confirm it. The cloying tension in the air swirling around the three of us and making it hard to breathe is evidence enough.
“Break up with him.Now.”
Drew’s expression closes off in a flash, like a storm cloud passing in front of the sun.
“What?” he spits at his father.
“You heard me. This can never work. She’s having my baby. Did she tell you that?” Henry steps closer, his eyes trained on me. The corners of them pinch as his gaze drops to my stomach, and he frowns.
“A baby you wanted me to abort,” I say, finding my voice.
His top lip curls into a sneer. “You were mine first. And the evidence of that is inside you right now.” He points at my stomach. “You can’t date her, Son. Not when I had her first.” His eyes meet mine again and glint with something that makes sourness coat my tongue. “And I had you more than a few times, didn’t I, Soph?”
There’s a roar and the air explodes around us as Drew slams his father against the wall.
“What the fuck did you say?”
