Sophie cried as she said, half for the baby, half for stirring up Timothy's sympathy for her.
The only person she could rely on now was Timothy. Only he would wholeheartedly help her against
the person she hated!
If Rose didn't die, she would never feel at ease.
"All right, don't cry." Timothy wiped the tears off her face.
Sophie leaned into his arms and said coquettishly, "Timothy, our son couldn't die for nothing. We have
to let Rose pay the price! Timothy, will you promise me let her pay for what she did?"
"Or are you too scared to say yes because of Bright? That is your kid. Because Bright will stand with
her, Rose has nothing to fear and even killed my child. Can you stand that?"
"Of course I can't. But do you have proof?" Timothy wrapped around her tiny waist.
"What do you mean?" Sophie asked in a displeased way. "You don't believe what I'm saying? Proof? I
am the proof!"
"Sophie, don't be mad. What I mean is that if we have sound proof, we can give it to the police, and
send her to justice." Timothy soothed Sophie, "Mrs. Lee killed a child! That would have a negative
impact to the Lee family, who will not accept her."
"You are too naive. What if we have proof? A child that is not born is not a life, and she will not be
punished at all. And with Bright's protection of her, do you think we'll get a fair trial?" Sophie said with
hatred. "We can only use our own way to get her punished!"
"Fine, I will listen to you." Timothy was obedient. "She killed out child, and I won't let her go! But we
have to deal with May first."
Sophie's face softened when she got the answer she wanted. "Fine. Remember that you will get Rose
punished. You know how much I trust you."
"After we deal with Rose, we'll go abroad and spend the rest of our life together. By then I'll give you
more babies. What do you thin, Timothy?" She raised her hand and caressed Timothy's face.
"That's great." Timothy smiled contentedly.
"Come on, let's see May." Sophie smirked and she raised her head proudly, like a triumphant peacock.
Timothy led Sophie to an old shack in the woods. The room was not very big, and the walls were
mottled. Shimmering orange light went through the cracks.
Timothy reached for the door, but Sophie took his hand. "Wait for me outside. She used to be my
mother-in-law, and I want to say something to her alone. It won't take long."
"Well, if you need anything, let me know. I'll just talk to the driver over there." Timothy pointed to where
the van was parked. The driver was still in the can. "Be safe," he said.
"Yes." Sophie patted him on the shoulder.
Timothy turned away, leaving room for Sophie, who opened the door. The iron door let out a squeak.
Sophie entered the room. The center of the room was empty and a few unused objects were stacked in
the corners. May was strapped into a chair in the center.
Her head bent down, and the hair in elegant style was now messy. The strands of hair obscured her
face, and the dim light above her head cast shadows over her, obscuring her shape and expression.
Sophie stepped on the high-heeled shoes, and walked elegantly to May. Looking at May, who was
once so dignified, but now so poor and pathetic, she felt unprecedentedly satisfied.
As if given a stimulant, she was excited and was in a good mood.
Sophie snorted and said sarcastically, "Mrs. Tanner, you didn't think you'd be here, did you?"
But May didn't respond to her. Her indifference made Sophie feel frustrated and uncomfortable.
Sophie stepped forward and grabbed May by the chin, forcing her to look up at her eyes. "Don't you
have anything to say, May?"
"Sophie, you'll regret it," said May lightly.
May was not flustered in the face of Sophie, but extremely calm.
The calmer May was, the angrier Sophie grew. "Regret it? I regret that I didn't let you suffer earlier.
Aren't you the noble Mrs. Tanner? Aren't you always elegant and dignified? Look at you now. You are
no difference from the beggars!"
"So?" May asked her.
Sophie got rid of May's hand disgustingly, and said arrogantly, "You will suffer more later."
"Sophie, what you have done would come back to you, and that's why you lost your baby..." May stared
at her flat stomach. She knew Sophie had lost her child.
"I don't want this child at all. As long as I'm alive, there will be hopes." Sophie was not sad at all when
she mentioned the baby, totally different from the one who cried her eyes out in front of Timothy.
"That's not Sky's kid." May was sure.
"Yes, I'm not afraid to tell you that this child is not Sky's." Sophie smiled a soft smile, "If it is not Sky's
child, I don't care whether it dies or not, so it doesn't matter if I lost it because I just want to give Sky a
baby, and I'm going to do that soon."
Sophie's eyes were calm, so was her voice, as if she was a heartless person.
"Never!" Only hearing that was May be irritated. She frowned at Sophie's triumphant smile and
shouted, "As long as I am here, I will never allow you to hurt Sky!"
"May, since you are taken here today, you are not going to get back alive!" Sophie's eyes became
fierce. "If you haven't prevented Sky and me from getting back together, he wouldn't have been in a
dilemma."
"If it wasn't for you, I would have gone back to the Tanner family. If it wasn't for you, I would have been
happier than I am now... You are the reason why you are in trouble. No one else is to blame!"
"When you die, Sky will have nothing to worry about, and he can be with me wholeheartedly. We will be
happier than before and we will have more babies. It's a pity that you will never see such a warm
scene, nor will you enjoy a happy family."
