‘How the hell did Sophia find my nephew? I’ve kept him hidden and safe all these years, the only kid my brother and his wife left in this world. How did she manage to…’ Chloe’s mind raced.

“I’m warning you, don’t go telling that kid anything about me,” Chloe gritted out.

Sophia lifted her chin. “That depends on whether you tell me the truth tonight.”

Chloe shot her a fierce glare. “Fine, I’ll talk.”

“My real name isn’t Chloe. Years ago, I took my nephew and went into hiding, drifting from place to place.

“I doubt anyone in Jenston even remembers there was once an heiress from the Winters family named Wendy. But if Irene heard that name, she’d probably blow a fuse,” Chloe said.

Sophia’s eyes widened in shock. ‘She’s a Winters?’

‘She’s from the Winters family, one of Jenston’s old elite families?’ Sophia thought, still reeling.

The Winters family went bankrupt thirty years ago and moved out of Jenston for good. It had been so long that hardly anyone in the city even remembered them anymore.

Sophia sized Chloe up as she listened to her go on. Chloe continued, “Sebastian, Richard, and I weren’t just childhood friends. We were true childhood sweethearts, growing up side by side.

“If nothing had gone wrong, I’d have definitely married one of them when we grew up. Both of them liked me, and honestly, they always did whatever I wanted.

“To me, it didn’t really matter which one I ended up with. That’s just how it goes in rich families. Marriages are all about. parents’ choices, and we just go along for the ride.

“But then, everything went south for the Winters family. My dad made some bad investments, and the company suffered huge losses. We had to declare bankruptcy.

“I was scared out of my mind. That night, I ran out, hoping to talk to your father, maybe even ask for his help. But as I got near his place, I saw him with your mom.

“I had no clue how they knew each other. There’d never been any hint before. They looked like a perfect match, smart, good -looking, totally in sync. I could see the gentleness in Richard’s eyes.

“I didn’t dare interrupt them.

“I slipped away quietly and ran straight to the Foster family. Irene met me in person and told me she was willing to help the Winters family through this mess, but I couldn’t be with Sebastian, not even get involved with him.

“That’s just how things work among the rich and powerful, ruthless and pragmatic. I didn’t get angry. Honestly, I was grateful Irene was willing to step in and help at all.

“After that, the Foster family did help us out when things got tough, but it was only a temporary fix. Winters Holdings just couldn’t hold on and eventually had to declare bankruptcy.

“Sebastian had been away for a year as an exchange student, and when he finally came back, he heard about what happened to my family and rushed straight to me.

“He made all kinds of promises, swearing he’d always be there for me, and his love felt so real. I broke my promise to Irene and didn’t leave Jenston with my family. Instead, we snuck around, living in our own little world together.

“That day, I couldn’t stop puking. Sebastian freaked out, took emergency leave from work, and rushed me to the doctor. Turns out, I was already more than a month pregnant.

“We barely had time to enjoy the idea of becoming parents before Irene found out about us. She sent her bodyguards to drag Sebastian back to the Foster residence.

“From that moment on, I never saw him again. Three months passed, my bump was starting to show, but there was still no sign of Sebastian.

“I believed in him. I was sure he’d convince his mom to let us be together. I waited and waited, but what I got instead was the news that he was engaged to some heiress from the Scott family in Harlinton.

“I couldn’t believe it. Furious, I stormed over to the Foster Sebastian never showed up. That’s when it hit m
