Early in the morning, Sophie drove to Luxford Group.Sitting in the passenger seat, Jeanna smiled contentedly. "I suddenly feel very satisfied with my new job. You provide me with food and accommodation. My boss even picks me up and drops me off personally. This treatment couldn't be any better."As soon as she finished speaking, the car, which had been driving smoothly, suddenly came to an abrupt stop. Her face paled instantly, and she turned her head in horror, her eyes filled with profound fear."Sorry, Jean. I just felt a little dizzy." Sophie quickly released the brake, but her expression did not look much better. It was as if something had covered her eyes for a split second seconds ago while her mind had been muddled. This had caused her to instinctively slam on the brake, forgetting that Jeanna was sitting beside her.Jeanna's cheeks were drained of color as she pointed to the roadside. "Let's pull over for a moment so I can catch a breath."Sophie quickly stopped the car.

When Sophie emerged from the consulting room, shock still stiffened her body. Though surrounded by numerous passersby, they seemed invisible to her as she moved forward mechanically."Sophie, don't let this get to you. Regarding the child, Cedric only contributed a single sperm. Now that it's in your womb, it's yours alone. It's completely unrelated to him. Whether you want to keep it or not, it's your choice," Jeanna consoled her.Sophie was on the verge of divorcing that scumbag, yet she found herself pregnant with his child at a critical juncture. If she were in Jeanna's shoes, she would be devastated, too."Jean, tell me, why is this happening?" Sophie asked with a trembling voice.'Why are there ties everywhere? Why can't I just cut everything off cleanly!'"Sophie, now isn't the time to despair. Look at that person!" Jeanna grabbed her arm when she saw someone entering the hospital through the doorway, forcing her to return to her senses.Sophie looked in the direction and

Vivienne smiled, her eyes reflecting a satisfied gleam. She stood up, found the remote control, and turned on the TV. A hint of shyness flashed across her expression. "Cedric, at my current age, I might watch some boring TV series that only housewives prefer. Would you mind?""It's okay. You can watch whatever you want," Cedric said, though his eyes betrayed no emotional fluctuations—probably because he had little interest in TV.Nevertheless, he had agreed to make up for Vivienne's hardships during the past three years of pregnancy and childbirth."Alright." Vivienne maintained her composure, even though she noticed the lack of enthusiasm in Cedric's eyes. After flipping through several channels without finding anything interesting, she sighed. "It looks like we'll have to make do with this drama on this channel."Cedric hummed noncommittally and shifted his gaze to the TV, but it was evident that his mind was elsewhere.On the screen, two women were arguing on the stairs. The ti

On the wide road, a Bentley with the license plate 9999 caught the attention of many. However, Melissa, the occupant inside, looked impatient as she instructed the driver, "Drive faster. The sight of these less fortunate people annoys me."A hint of embarrassment crossed the driver's face as he accelerated the car. In Imperium, none could match the wealth of the Carlsons. Therefore, everyone else seemed poor in Melissa's eyes.Melissa fiddled with her phone. Today was the day Sophie would sign the divorce papers, and Melissa couldn't let Cedric's shares transfer to her."Are you sure Vivienne lives in the villa around here?" she asked the driver."Yes, ma'am, I'm sure. She and the boy have been staying here since they returned to Carlosia," the driver replied."What do you mean 'the boy'? He's the young heir of the Carlsons!" Melissa glared at him disapprovingly.'That woman is really lucky. Given her background, she wouldn't even dream of stepping into the Carlsons in her next l

Back at the Carlson mansion.Jeff sat on the couch. Matthew stood beside him but refrained from speaking. He only frowned and glanced at his son positioned at the side."Have you thought it through? Are you really agreeing to the divorce?" Jeff's voice cut through the air coldly, his expression serious as he tried to suppress his wrath.Jeff had always believed that Sophie was the most suitable woman for Cedric, and their union was the key to their lifelong happiness. However, his grandson had decided to divorce her because of another woman. How could Cedric be so unfilial and unfaithful?"I've asked a lawyer to draft a divorce agreement, and all the equity and real estate under my name will be transferred to her," Cedric stated from the side, his black suit adding to his upright appearance.His expression remained unchanged, but the wickedness in his eyes transformed into hints of aloofness and coldness, exuding a complex aura. 'After our divorce, she can justifiably flirt and ha
