Sophia loved Jeremy deeply, having fallen for him since the very first day she saw him.
Therefore, problems with his virility did not bother her too much.
As long as Sophia could keep him by her side, she would consider herself successful and
happy.
However, she believed that having a child together with Jeremy would help rekindle their
feelings and solidify their bond. To that end, before his body had fully healed, she
retrieved the child she sent away and tricked him by saying that the child was the result of
their union.
Jeremy believed in Sophia’s words. After all, he and the child bore a striking resemblance
to each other. Unfortunately, that child had never shown any affection for Sophia from a
young age. No amount of love and care from her end could get him to call her ‘Mommy’.
Sophia occasionally grew impatient and wished she could scold the child, but the fear of

by the psychiatrist had erased all traces of her from his memory.
Elsewhere, at a restaurant, the three kids were exhausted after some playtime in the
children’s playground. They each held a large slice of pizza and wolfed it down hungrily.
Francine propped up her chin and gazed fondly at her three little nephews, finding them to
be increasingly adorable with every passing look.
Corinne, who sat beside Francine, seemed to be lost in thought. The latter waved her hand
in front of the former and said, “Is something on your mind? We agreed to take the
children out to play, but you’ve been spacing out the whole time! Are you thinking about
Jason?”
Corinne snapped back to reality and gazed thoughtfully at Francine. “No, I ran into Sophia
at the kindergarten entrance.”
Francine was taken aback upon hearing that. “You ran into her? Isn’t she supposed to be in
Molomia? When did she return to the country?”
Corinne replied, “She said she came back just recently.”
Francine frowned indignantly. “I get angry every time I hear that woman’s name! My
brother would never have disappeared if it weren’t for her. It’s all her fault!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCorinne narrowed her eyes and said, “She was holding a child in her arms when I met
