    Chapter 516


    Lucas looked at ire’s shocked and bewildered eyes and cruelly smirked.


    He didn’t care if his following words would enrage her to death. That woman is just a slut who slept


    with countless men. How could she possibly carry my child! You’ve been deceived. Are you


    satisfied now? My hands and feet are crippled, and the Taylor family lineage ispletely cut off.”


    “I refuse to believe it!” ire roared hoarsely. She had yearned for a grandson for so many years,


    even entertaining thoughts of sacrificing her son to ensure the safety of a grandson. “Are you lying


    to me? Just because I despised you and didn’t want to save you, did you make up this lie to hurt


    ΠΙΕΡ


    If Lucas could have moved, he would have pushed ire away. After all that, he had no deed to lie


    to her. “I had ruined my body over the years. Doctors said I was infertile. Did you think I could have


    gotten that woman pregnant?”


    ire screamed, falling from the bedside andnding heavily on the floor. The blow was devastating


    for her. The entire world had copsed around her, and she couldn’t see any meaning in living. “Oh


    my God, why are you doing this to me? Why?”


    Lucas watched as ire pounded her chest in anguish, showing no trace of pity or sympathy on his


    face. After silence, he asked, “You just said you sent Sophia to Jason’s bed, and Jason agreed to


    save me?”


    When ire heard Sophia’s name, it struck her like a thunderbolt, and deep–seated hatred shed


    in her eyes. “It’s that bitch Sophia. She must have instigated Jason to cripple you. She initially


    proposed it, and she already knows her true identity. To retaliate against us, she must have


    instructed Jason”


    Lucas looked up at the ceiling and smiled in a sinister way. He thought, Jason Wilson! Sophia


    Taylor! I would make yo


    you pay the price!”


    ire couldn’t bear the thought of her son being crippled and losing her grandson. Ovee with


    emotion, she screamed uncontrobly in the ward. Soon after, the stress caused her to faint.


    The rumors about Sophia having an affair with Nathan continued to escte. Despite Nathan’s


    pleas for his wife Ariana to hold a press conference to rify the situation, his protective stance


    towards Sophia only heightened Ariana’s suspicions. Eventually, the couple’s arguments escted


    to the point where they almost filed for divorce at City Hall.


    At a critical moment, Caleb’s condition deteriorated, and the attending physician delivered a dire


    prognosis to both Nathan and Ariana, indicating that Caleb might not survive more than a few days.


    Faced with no choice, Nathan reluctantly broke his promise and revealed Sophia’s identity as a


    renowned doctor to Ariana.


    After learning the truth, Ariana calmed down. However, asking her to drop her knees and apologize


    to Sophia was entirely out of the question for her


    Nathan couldn’t persuade her, so he went alone to Preston Hospital to talk to Sophia.


    Sophia focused all her energy on finding Timothy’s whereabouts, ignoring everything else and


    shutting herself away. She wasn’t a saint and couldn’t forgive Ariana’s defamation easily. From the


    start, she made it clear if Ariana wanted her back, she muste and drop her knees to apologize.


    If Ariana couldn’t even do that why should Sophia bear the pressure of taking on such a contentious


    situation?

    It was okay if Caleb was saved. If he wasn’t, the Harper family would torn her apart alive.


    The ward’s door was knocked for the fifth time, and Sophia spoke coldly. “Aaron, tell Mr. Harper that


    adults should take responsibility for their words. Until I see genuine sincerity from Mrs. Harper, I


    won’t visit the Harper family. Tell him to go back.”


    As she finished speaking, the door swung open, and a familiar voice said, “Sophie, it’s me.”
