Chapter 40
The irritation and gloom in Filon’s heart was gone in an instant. He looked at Sophia with a somewhat ambiguous unille.
Last night she acted
like she didn’t car
about him.
Now, once she found out he was hospitalized, she rush to see him.
No matter how good she pretended to be, she was still following him, just like she did before. The Abyss, the hotel last night, and the State Hospital It couldn’t be a coincidence.
It was obvious that Sophia was deliberately following him, trying to attract his attention.
Ethan’s confidence surged again, and he raised his hand to Sophia and said with a superior, condescending tone. “Sophia, for your perseverance, bring over the medicinal soup you made.
Stomach bleeding was not a nice experience.
Even though the medicine alleviated the pain in his body, Ethan still felt uncomfortable all over, and any large movement caused a stabbing pain in his stomach.
In the past, when Ethan was hospitalized for a stomach ailment, Sophia used to make him some stomach–nourishing medicine soup, and he would be discharged within an hour of drinking it.
Sophia had said that brewing the medicinal soup took her more than five hours.
Now that she came early in the morning to bring him the soup, she must have gotten up very early. Seeing how concerned she was about him, he reluctantly accepted the medicinal soup that she had made for him.
Ethan curled his lips, his eyes full of arrogant defiance, as if he had given Sophia a way out and she should be grateful and continue to grovel before him like a dog that comes when called.
Naturally, standing behind Ethan, Chloe was the clearest to see Ethan his changed expression
She always knew how to read the room. Observing the originally sullen Eshan, the moment he saw Sophia, his eyebrows raised visibly and he showed a smile. Especially his eyes brightened.
She felt her heart sink slightly, and her fingers instinctively tightened their grip on the wheelchair.
She had successfully snatched Ethan away. She had managed to reclaim my true identity. She had rightfully become Ethan’s fiancée. She could not allow Sophia to destroy the relationship between her and Ethan!
Chloe’s gaze was covered with a sinister as she looked at the girl dressed in a white hoodie with a backpack. Although it was an extremely unremarkable outfit, her extraordinarily radiant appearance and cold demeanor made it impossible for anyone to look away
She pressed her lips tightly together, feeling a sense of injustice in her heart.
‘How could someone like Sophia, who came from the slums, have such a stunning face? Wasn’t it because of her face that she had attracted man after man! Chloe felt indignant, gripping her fingers tighter.
But when her gaze swept over Sophia’s empty hands and that flat backpack, a gleam of joy suddenly flashed in her eyes.
“Ethan, it seems that Sophia didn’t bring you
Ethan’s
the medicinal soup today”
suddenly widened, and his gaze swiftly scanned over Sophia, frowning, “Sophia, what’s wrong with you!”
Sophia stood in the middle of the five men, she was slender and tall and appeared petite. But when her cold, clear eyes glanced at Ethan, they carried an overwhelming aura that even made him feel a bit intimidated.
“Who do you think you are? You’re really full of yourself.” Her delicate eyes were filled with overflowing disgust and Irritation, “If you want medicinal soup, go find your fiancée.”
The cold and disdainful tone appeared entirely reluctant to utter another word to him
The look of undisguised disgust and indifference on her face deeply pierced him to the heart
His friends also cast shocked and puzzled glances at him.
A seething anger filled Ethan’s chest, and his eyes blazed with intense fury. “Sophia, I am now offering you an opportunity. Don’t play hard to get

my attention Some tricks are best playeil just once!”
Chloe saw that Ethan’s hand was all tensed up on the armies of his wheelchair, his veins wicking out. She hit her lip and leaned in closer, gently placing her small hand over his.
With her bright and beautiful eyes looking up, she sabil. “Ethan still isn’t feeling well. Don’t not upset him. You need to keep things in check, there are limits to everything”
Her voice was soft but had that friendly advice vibe. “Bhan doesn’t often want your soup. Make it quickly so he doesn’t have to wait. If you him, he might ignore you. You’ll feel bad then.
One could tell from her words that she had this graceful queen–like presence, and fir Eihari’s health, she was ready to put up with anything. Sophia furrowed her brow in impatience as she glanced at the clock. With merely ten minutes remaining before her scheduled meeting with Tristan, she had no intention of wasting her time with these idiots.
She stepped forward, directly crossing over them, and headed towards the Inpatient department
“Sophia“” Chloe called out urgently, quickening her pace in her heels to catch tip. She turned to glance at Ethan, whose face was pale, and her eyes were filled with concern and affection.
Then, with determination, she matched Sophia’s pace. “Wait, it doesn’t matter if you don’t feel like making medicinal food for Ethan. If Ethan enjoys it. I can certainly learn how to do it too.
“I know you have been taking care of him before, and I understand if you are angry with me for my involvement. From now on, I’ll make sure he’s taken care of, so you don’t have to worry.
“As his fiancée, I would like to express my gratitude for the care and attention you have given him over the past three years.”
Her voice was
soft.
and her tone sincere, as if hoping to apologize to her in this way.
While superficially grateful, she was emphasizing her identity and showing off her relationship with Ethan.
Chloe was impatient to completely cut off Sophia’s longing for Ethan. Especially after finding our that Sophia was Ethan’s dream girl L, Chloe couldn’t wait to give her a hard time.
Facing Sophia’s cold gaze, she smiled softly, “Can you tell me if there are any matters to pay attention to?”
Even though Sophia had been meticulously taking care of Ethan for three years, ultimately, it was Chloe who became Ethan’s fiancée. As for Sophia, from beginning to end, she was merely a nanny and nothing more.
