303.Chapter 303

Eleanore had dropped the hospital director off at the airport early that morning. As she was leaving, she spotted Derrick standing there with Paolo, and not long after, Sophia walked right up to him.

Before Eleanore knew it, Sophia and Derrick were hugging, and the sight hit her like a punch to the gut.

It had been three years since Eleanore and Derrick had gone their separate ways. After finishing grad school, she’d been back in Jenston for almost a year now.

She never thought she’d run into him again here in Jenston.

His words from back in Japoria still echoed in her mind.

Eleanore thought, ‘Maybe time really does heal all wounds. It looks like he’s finally found someone he truly cares about.

‘Good for him.’

Her nose prickled and her eyes welled up with tears. She hurriedly ducked her head, blinking back the tears and burying them deep within her heart.

After leaving the airport and getting back to the hospital, Eleanore buried herself in work, trying not to think about Derrick. But she still ended up running into Sophia at the hospital.

Sophia kept quiet, but she couldn’t help but suspect something was going on between Eleanore and Derrick that nobody else knew about.

Women’s intuition was always on point. Noticing Eleanore’s eyes were full of hurt and jealousy, Sophia thought, ‘Derrick is such a scumbag.’

But when it came to matters of the heart, she wasn’t the one in the middle of it, so who was right or wrong wasn’t for her to judge.

Sophia smiled lightly and said, “Mr. Grant is now the executive director and CEO of Crestview Group.”

Eleanore realized Sophia was keeping things strictly professional, and she felt a bit awkward. She and Derrick had nothing to do with each other anymore, so just asking Sophia about her relationship with him out of the blue felt pretty rude. She gave an embarrassed smile and said, “Sorry, I saw you and Derrick together at the airport today, so I hope I didn’t seem too intrusive.”

Sophia could see Eleanore was feeling a bit embarrassed, so she took the initiative to say, “No worries at all. I didn’t realize you and Mr. Grant knew each other. Maybe we could have dinner together sometime if there’s a chance?”

“No, that’s alright. Actually, I don’t really know him that well. Sorry for taking up your time, Ms. Roth. I should get back to work. Maybe I’ll see you around later,” Eleanore replied.

After Eleanore walked away, Sophia was sure now: there was definitely some history between Eleanore and Derrick. Irene had finished all her tests half an hour ago, but the results weren’t back yet, so Grace and Irene headed back to the hospital room to wait.

Sophia knocked and stepped inside.

Irene’s whole face lit up with joy when she saw Sophia.

“Sophia, are you off work already? Why didn’t Easton come with you?” Irene asked.

Irene even poked her head out to check the doorway, making Sophia chuckle.

Sophia said, “Grandma Irene, did you forget again? Easton’s away on a business trip to Menolia.”

Grace poured Sophia a glass of water and said, “Mrs. Sophia Foster, Mr. Foster got back to Jenston early this morning. He even called Mrs. Irene Foster as soon as he landed.”

As soon as Grace said it, she realized she might’ve slipped up and glanced nervously at Irene.

Irene’s eyes narrowed. She scoffed, “That little brat! He comes back to the country and doesn’t even bother to tell his wife? I’ m calling him right now to give him a piece of my mind.”

Sophia was a bit surprised to hear Easton was back, but honestly, it wasn’t his fault: she’d blocked him everywhere, even on WhatsApp.

So even if he wanted to reach out, there was no

Obviously, this was something she’d never mention to Irene.
