Her Life Starts to Spin out of Control

While Sophia hesitated, a voice joined the conversation. On the other line, Wendy curiously asked, "Is that Sophia? Are you sleeping over tonight? That's great! Brody and I will wait for you for his bedtime story!"

Hearing that, Sophia was at a loss of words. Since Wendy had also invited her, it was very difficult to refuse. Thinking how much she missed Brody, Sophia readily agreed.

Before they drove to the Li Manor, Sophia stopped the car at Waterside Boulevard to drop Aaron off. "Take care, sister."

"You too. Go back home early."

"Wait for a moment." Colin told Sophia. He got off the car and closed the door behind him. Outside of the car, Colin walked towards Aaron. "They'll think you're retaliating against her. Watch your back."

Aaron knew who he was talking about. Inserting his hands into his pockets, he gazed at the buildings in the distance. "I know, brother."

But he wasn't afraid. He had been through hell. How could he fear the Lien Clan and Pei Clan after that? They were nothing to him in comparison.

Colin patted his shoulder. "I know you're capable of protecting yourself, but don't worry your sister."

Although Sophia had no idea, Colin knew what Aaron had been through in England. If Aaron hadn't contacted him last year, or if he hadn't used his influence in England at the time, Aaron would've been long gone by now.

Driven by curiosity, Aaron couldn't help but ask, "By the way, brother, what's the deal with Brody?"

At the mention of his son's name, Colin smiled and glanced at the woman sitting in the car and playing with her phone. "Your sister doesn't know that our son is alive."

Aaron's eyes widened in shock as he stared at Colin. Did he mean... Did he mean that the dead son his sister mentioned was still alive?

But his sister was so certain of the child's death. "But sister said the child..."

Colin sighed heavily. "No. I had Wade take away the child and raised him myself. Your sister now thinks he's my child from another woman."

"Why not tell my sister? She was so sad..." Aaron could still recall how Sophia wailed over her son's death over the phone.

Complex feelings surged in Colin's eyes. "It isn't time yet. I'll tell her about Ambrose soon. And until then, you have to keep quiet."
