Chapter 1305
A shiver ran down Hylda’s spine. She took a deep breath and steadied her voice, “Walter, your request is too sudden. I truly don’t have that much money at the moment. Could you perhaps give me a little more time to-“
“My condition can’t wait. I’ll give you three days at most. If you don’t transfer the money on time, don’t be surprised when I seek Ms. Jewell’s help.”
After ending the call, Hylda’s face turned unprecedently gloomy. ‘I knew I should have cleaned things up back then!’
“Mom?” Sophia’s voice came from behind.
Hylda was startled. She sighed in relief when she turned around and saw that it was Sophia.
“Mom, who were you talking to on the phone? Why did you get out of the car?”
“It’s no one important,” Hylda said with a frown. “Is your father home?”
Annoyed, Sophia said, “Haven’t I told you already? He’s been spending time at that whore’s place and taking care of her.”
“Drive me there.”
Sophia blinked in surprise. “Where?”
Hylda opened the car door with a serious look on her face and said, “Drive me to your father.”
Throughout the ride, Hylda’s brows remained furrowed. She was worried that Albert would discover the truth behind Rainee’s miscarriage.
Back then, Albert had bribed doctors at a private hospital to learn the gender of the child in advance. It was a boy.
Sophia was only four years old at the time, and Hylda was in her early twenties. She lacked education and practical skills. Albert was her sole reliance.
However, his demeanor shifted the moment he knew Rainee was having a boy. He started prioritizing his family and accompanied Rainee to her medical appointments. He also gradually distanced himself from Hylda.
