The expected slap did not come. Sophia quickly grabbed Claire’s hand before it could land on her.
Looking at Claire’s disbelieving gaze, Sophia couldn’t help but reveal a look of disdain. She thought, ‘Why? Did she think that I would be as obedient as I was five years ago and let her slap me? What a joke.”
After pushing Claire gently and successfully seeing her fall onto the bed, Sophia slowly placed the fruit basket on the table. “I can take responsibility for your medical fees. After all, you were once my mother. I can’t watch you die. As for Lucas, he bullied, humiliated, and hurt me. We aren’t siblings. It’s not worth my money.”
Claire gasped, “You…”
Sophia’s gaze swept across Claire’s face and she smiled. “If you get angry, it will accelerate the spread of cancer cells, so it’s better to calm down. I’ve been in business overseas for five years. I don’t have much, but I have a lot of money. I’ll pay for your chemotherapy and let you live for a few more years.”

Claire was even angrier when she saw Sophia’s annoying look of I have too much money and nowhere to spend“. However, with the intense pain in her chest, she had no choice but to control her emotions. “Sophia, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have favored boys over girls. Can you save your brother?”
Sophia took a deep look at Claire, turned, and walked out. This was all she could do. As for the rest, please forgive her for not being a saint. She could not do it.
Claire saw Sophia leaving decisively and rushed out of bed in a panic. However, before she could steady herself, her legs went weak and she fell to the ground.
Ada, who was stunned at the side, finally reacted. After spitting at Claire, she strode toward Sophia. She would have plenty of opportunities to deal with Claire. She had to find out why that bitch Sophia had returned to Cester City.
Ada couldn’t believe that damn mercenary commander found a fake corpse to deceive her. Damn it.
In the corridor, Ada strode forward and blocked Sophia’s way. “Sophia, you’re really good at scheming. You faked your death to escape. Unfortunately, your man is now my son’s father. That relationship can never be severed.”
Sophia understood what Ada meant. She chuckled and said, “A scumbag and a vicious woman. You’re a perfect fit for each other. I won’t disturb the two of you… from mating.”
With that, Sophia stepped around her and continued walking forward.
Ada wanted to stop Sophia, but when she sensed many gazes on her, she stopped herself. She had nothing to be fraid of. With that little bastard in her hands, if she got angry, she would drag him to hell with her.

After Sophia came out of the hospital, she went straight to a cafe in the city center.
In the private room on the second floor, when Harriet saw Sophia take off her cap and mask, looking calm, she
could not help but ask, “Aren’t you afraid of being exposed?”
Sophia glanced at Harriet and snickered. “Jason already knows.”
Harriet’s heart skipped a beat when she heard that. “Did I expose you?”
Sophia shook her head and comforted Harriet. “It has nothing to do with you. By the way, we met in a hurry
previously and didn’t have the chance to ask you about your recent situation. Have you… remarried?”
Sophia knew how difficult it was for a woman to raise a child. It was precisely because she knew that she hoped
Harriet could find someone to rely on. It was better to have someone to share the burden with than to be alone.
“No,” Harriet answered casually. She subconsciously turned her head to look at the hall on the first floor. “I-”
Before Harriet could finish, she suddenly trembled violently.
Seeing this, Sophia hurriedly asked, “What’s wrong? Are you sick?”
Harriet widened her eyes and looked straight at the entrance of the hall. She said with a shaky voice, “S–Sophia, can you help me see if that’s Norman?”
Hearing Norman’s name, Sophia’s expression changed.
Harriet’s deceased husband was called Norman.
Sophia quickly followed Harriet’s gaze and looked at the hall on the first floor.
