    Chapter 24


    Jason’s mind whirled with thoughts, ‘Only moments ago, I was fretting over Sophia’s health, ready


    to ask my assistant to arrange a bodyguard to escort her back to the vi. Then, in the blink of an


    eye, I receive a photo of her smiling and enjoying herself in another man’s mansion. Absurd. How


    ironic can life be?”


    Jason asked, “Is the property registered under Oliver’s name?”


    Eric flinched,cking the courage to respond. He thought to himself, ‘Mr. Wilson’s expression is grim


    right now. Maybe he should take a moment to look in the mirror. People all believe Mrs. Wilson


    stole her cousin’s boyfriend and used evil means to climb the socialdder. They consider this is


    why Mr. Wilson is so disgusted by Mrs. Wilson that they seem like strangers despite being married.


    However, I don’t share the same thought. Mrs. Wilson had been missing for the past few days, and


    Mr. Wilson practically turned Cester City upside down searching for her. How can a man who gets


    jealous show no feelings for Mrs. Wilson? However, Mr. Wilson doesck emotional intelligence. I


    suspect he


    wouldn’t realize if he had fallen in love with Mrs. Wilson.”


    Jason scolded, “Reply to me. Are you on the mute mode or something?”


    Jason’s scolding came into Eric’s ears, waking him up from thoughts. He hastily put the random


    thoughts behind him and replied, “That’s right. This property does belong to Mr. rk. It took us


    several days to confirm it because of its extreme privacy”


    Jason’s irritation red at the words of “extreme privacy.” He wondered, ‘What kind of property


    requires such intense secrecy? It’s either for a man’s ndestine life or his secret lover. Either way,


    it reeks of scandalous intrigue.”


    Thinking that his woman had stayed there for several days, Jason could not control his anger. He


    pondered, ‘I hadn’t had time to ask her where she’d been for the past few days at noon. Now that I


    have this evidence, it’s time to confront her. With that, he grabbed a few pictures and swiftly strode


    outside.


    Eric felt his boss’s irritation and understood he had made a mistake. He raised his hand and gave


    himself a light p, warning himself, “Eric, be more adaptable next time!” Then, he eximed, “Mr.


    Wilson! Mrs. Wilson must have been staying there overnight! That’s it!”


    Sophia knelt by the artificialke for the entire afternoon. Snowkes danced down with the chilly


    wind, making the air freezing,


    She struggled to get up but the two bodyguards pushed her down. After trying a few times, she


    gave up and epted her fate.


    Jason had always been ruthless. This trait propelled him to drive the Wilson Group to


    unprecedented sess. However, it seemed too cruel that he would apply the same tactics even to


    his wife.


    Later, even the two bodyguards began to feel sorry for Sophia. They chose to turn a blind eye,


    allowing her not to kneel


    Sophia sat on the ground, snowkes drifting from her long eyshes, entuating her already


    pale face. The ultra–low temperature numbed her, causing her to be unable to feel the pain inside..


    She pondered, ‘As for the fetus in my womb… Wrapping her scarf tightly around her belly to shield


    it from the cold wind.


    She reflected, ‘The scarf doesn’t seem to provide much warmth, but it’s all I can do. The survival of


    the fetus depends on its resilience. Besides, what’s the point of its survival for now? I have a feeling


    that I’m going to die soon. The baby won’t survive once I’m gone. My biggest regret is bringing it


    into this world.


    ‘It feels like just yesterday when I was searching for a doctor to prepare for my pregnancy. Now,


    those memories are like pains that pierce my

    heart and bones. Jason’s asional gentleness blinded me and caused me to make a fatal mistake


    that cost the lives of me and my baby.


    ‘Poison will always be poison. I naively mistook it for candy because it came from someone I loved.


    Yet, when the sweetness faded, the poison plunged me into the abyss of pain.”


    A bodyguard reported, “Ma’am, Mr. Wilson ising over.” His words pulled Sophia back from her


    thoughts.


    Sophia looked up into Jason’s eyes and asked hoarsely, “is everything okay with Alison?” The only


    reason she had held on until now was


    because she wanted to know if Alison had made it.

    Jason stood before Sophia and replied, “Her life has been saved, but it’s uncertain if she’ll wake up


    from hera.”


    Sophia was relieved after hearing the first half of the sentence and murmured, “That’sforting.”


    Jason shouted inside, ‘Comforting? How could it possibly beforting that my grandma may


    never wake up again?‘ With that thought swirling in his mind, he gripped Sophia’s neck tightly in


    rage.
