Jacob was so overcome with emotion that tears streamed down his face. He nodded quickly, promising to stay quiet, and only then did Sophia take her hand away from his mouth.
To keep her son safe, Sophia quickly erased the text message.
Jacob was in tears. “Thank goodness, my son is still alive. It was Stella who saved him,’ he thought.
Sophia stood up and said, “Come on, let’s go get some breakfast. You haven’t eaten much these past three days. If you collapse, our son will be worried sick about you.”
Tears of joy streamed down Sophia’s face.
Jacob stood up and gently wiped the tears from her cheeks.
“Don’t cry. Your face is already getting wrinkly with age, and crying just makes it worse. Seriously, you look even funnier when you cry,” Jacob teased her with a smile.
Back in their day, most marriages were arranged, but they lucked out. They actually fell for each other and just grew old together, side by side.
Sophia gave him a sharp look.
“Are you complaining about me now?” she asked.
“Come on, we’ve been together forever, old married couple and all. I’m always sniffling and drooling, and you never minded, so why should I? Let’s go eat, I’m starving,” Jacob said.
Now that their son was safe, Jacob finally had an appetite again.
“Yeah, let’s eat well and try to stick around a few more years. I want to see Liam grow up, get married, and have kids of his own,” Sophia said, starting to dream about the future again.
Sophia thought, ‘Even if Liam wasn’t raised in the Ashford family, with Stella’s personality, she’d raise him right, no doubt about it.
It didn’t take long for Beatrice’s people to notice that Dylan had gone to the Ashford mansion.
As soon as Beatrice got the call, she ordered, “Follow Dylan and see what he’s up to.”
“Yes, Mrs. Ashford,” the person replied.
Beatrice hung up and saw Eliana coming down the stairs.
Eliana’s hand still hadn’t healed, so after leaving the hospital, she and Beatrice went back to the villa of the Ashford family to
recover,
Even after the divorce, the villa still belonged to Beatrice.
Beatrice said, “Dylan just went over to the Ashford mansion.”
Eliana walked over casually and sat down across from her.
“He has started treatment lately. Guess he doesn’t want to die, huh?” Eliana said with a playful smile. “Mom, do now that we tricked Dylan into sleeping with me, he won’t ditch me again?”

Beatrice frowned. “Are you really over that illness?”
She’d been so worried lately that she wouldn’t even eat with Eliana.

Beatrice made sure everything was used separately, and after doing some research, she realized Eliana’s illness was super contagious.
Eliana glared at her and snapped, “I’ve told you a million times! When I was getting treated overseas, the doctors said the chances of a relapse were almost zero. I’m cured now, and I’m living clean. It’s not coming back.”
Back then, Eliana put everything on the line for a dream she barely understood.
She truly believed Tyler was her everything.
But he tore her dreams apart.
Beatrice said, “Dylan is not so easy to outsmart. Back when you came home, he let his guard down because you were eating with me.
