Chapter 114

"Her name is Vivian Laurent." Ethan Roscente's voice was icy.

Sophia Evans' pupils constricted sharply. "Vivian? Isn't that your—"

Her voice trembled as her nails dug into her palms.

"Victoria told me you were divorced." Sophia forced a smile. "She can't possibly be that ugly girl."

The Vivian she remembered was dark-skinned, overweight, and covered in freckles. That country bumpkin wasn't fit to stand beside Ethan.

"Just a coincidence." Ethan's tone remained indifferent.

Sophia exhaled in relief but couldn't resist probing. "You're so kind to her because of the name?"

Ethan's eyes darkened.

His initial approach to Vivian had indeed been for Sophia's illness. But the woman's eyes were too clear, like spring water, drawing him in against his will.

"Why did you return suddenly?" He changed the subject.

"I missed you." Sophia softened her voice. "Victoria said you'd be at the racetrack, so I came."

She deliberately added, "Theo misses you too. Let's visit him together?"

Mentioning their child always softened Ethan's heart.

"There's a flight for you tomorrow." Ethan's response was crisp.

Sophia's face paled. "I just got back!"

"Rest at the hospital tonight." Ethan walked away without looking back.

The moment the door closed, Sophia's expression twisted.

She grabbed her phone and dialed her agent. "Find out who was at the racetrack today! Look for a woman with my build wearing a ring!"

Even if she had to fabricate evidence.

Ethan would investigate. She had to prepare.
