“Who is it? Come out,” a female’s voice said.
“Mommy, I feel terrible,” a child replied.
It was the conversation between an adult and a child in the hospital’s emergency corridor.
The louder voice was Sophia’s. The quieter voice was Timothy’s. There had not been any deliberate changes in
voice.
In addition, Sophia had just admitted she had met Timothy in the hospital and brought him back. The ironclad evidence was before them. No one would be able to hide the truth anymore.
Sophia’s mind was in shock. After a short pause, she slowly reacted. She would never have thought that Timothy had a listening device on him. Therefore, when she spoke to him, she did not deliberately change her voice. That was why she exposed herself.
Sophia wondered, ‘Is this God’s will? Perhaps. She was cautious in every way and took each step carefully. She thought she could escape Jason’s eyes and leave Cester City quietly. She did not expect to expose herself so early.
Sophia wondered what she could do now, if she should continue to deny it. There seemed to be no need for that.
Jason had already determined that she was Sophia. If she still played dumb, with his personality, he would draw her blood for testing.
After all, Wilson Group’s medical team still had her blood sample. A comparison was better than many verbal rebuttals.
There was dead silence.
Their heartbeats and breaths intertwined, and the surrounding space became cramped and viscous.
Sophia lowered her head slightly and smiled bitterly. After going around in circles for five years, she did not expect to return to the same place.
Perhaps after God stopped tormenting them, he still wanted to tie them together and torture them ruthlessly. Since finding out Sweety had leukemia, Sophia knew that this day would come sooner or later.
If Sophia couldn’t find the right bone marrow, she would take the second path. To get the umbilical cord blood of the newborn, she needed Jason’s cooperation.
Sophia tried so hard to escape, but the wheels of fate still trapped her firmly.
Jason felt the sorrow emanating from Sophia, and his heart suddenly ached. He thought, ‘Is it so unbearable for

her to be with me as Sophia?”
After a moment of silence, Jason slowly got up, walked to Sophia, and knelt. “Sophia, I was wrong.” Jason tried to touch Sophia’s face, wanting to feel her warm skin.
After living five years in a daze, Jason could only hug her cold body in his dreams. How he yearned to hold her in his arms again, to dote on her and protect her. That unattainable dream was now within his reach. Even if he would
be consigned to eternal damnation if he touched her, he was willing to endure it.
Sophia snapped out of her daze and suddenly turned her head away from Jason’s hand. She no longer deliberately changed her voice and said coldly, “Go and atone for your mistakes then. Don’t pester me.”
The familiar voice drew tears from Jason. He was so afraid that the scene in front of him was just a dream. When dawn came, he could wake up. Everything would turn into ashes which he couldn’t grab at all.
Jason whispered, “I have atoned for my sins. Look at me. I look glorious on the surface, but I’m devastated inside. If you don’t believe me, ask Derick. He’s been giving me psychological counseling.”
At this moment, Jason no longer had the bearing of a ruler of the empire. He knelt humbly in front of the love of his life, belittling himself. He only hoped that Sophia would look at him and respond to him.
Jason was no confident and domineering strategist now. In the world of relationships, he was just a pitiful person.
“Sophia, I was wrong.” Jason stubbornly repeated this, wanting Sophia to understand that he had been repenting. Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Sophia laughed silently. She looked into Jason’s eyes and said slowly, “I should be the one to apologize, because… I aborted your children.”
