“Are you sure you didn’t pressure him too much? Typically, men like him would abandon their mistress and return to their real family,” said the nurse. 

“Deborah hates him for being a traitor, so I doubt she’ll forgive him,” Sophia said. 

“Well, with the new guy she’s got, she wouldn’t go back to someone who’s now broke,” the nurse remarked amusedly. 

“Exactly,” Sophia said, getting out of bed to stretch a bit. “By the way, what about the witch?” 

“Mr. Peterson took her away last night.” 

“Wow, the old man finally did something good.” 

“But, don’t let your guard down, my friend.” 

“Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing.” 

“Oh, and while you were practically on your deathbed, your associ handing Sophia her phone to check the news. 

nade their move,” the nurse said, 

“What? They did… oh… Interesting.” Sophia commented as she watched the news about what the Andersons were up to. “Wow, this is very interesting. Now the big question is, how can I use this situation to my advantage?” she wondered excitedly. 

“And I also have a message from Vox…” 

At the mention of her brother’s nickname, Sophia grew serious as he rarely contacted her. 

Meanwhile, Roger left the hospital and decided to return to his apartment to get some rest, having been by Sophia’s side all night. When he arrived home, he noticed for the first time how quiet the apartment could be, which was both strange and somewhat welcome. Yet, it also carried an air of loneliness and 

emptiness. 

He headed straight for his bedroom to lie down, but his mind wouldn’t let him rest, replaying the events of the previous night over and over. 

“Damn it… what’s wrong with me?” he muttered, annoyed as he sat on the edge of the bed. 

His gaze then fell on a note addressed to him, recognizable by his mother’s handwriting. He picked it up 

to read it. 

[Roger, your father has provided a house for me to stay in. If you’re feeling lonely, you can come live with me. He also mentioned that you haven’t been evicted from your apartment, but given everything that’s happened, it might be best for you to distance yourself from Sophia. 

Yes… I know I was the one who encouraged you to be with her, but you’ve seen all the trouble she has caused us.

commented with a grimace and a sigh. 

[By the way, Roger, there’s something Sophia told me that has me worried… she claims to be the one who saved your life when you were a child, but that’s not true. It was Deborah who saved you because you spent time together as kids; your father and her mother were childhood friends.] 

“What? Sophia lied to me 

[I don’t know why she lied or how she knew about that accident, but now that there’s no baby to bind you, try to distance yourself from her because I feel like she approached you with bad intentions. 

Take it as a mother’s advice, and if you need to, come see me. This is my new address…] 

“No… this…” Roger was in shock, realizing he’d been deceived. The reason he started a relationship with Sophia was because she claimed to have been the one to save his life. Now, it was all a lie. “Damn it… she used me,” he said furiously, clenching his fists. “But she’ll pay for this.”
