Ryan had been feeling miserable lately, still at odds with May, and now even his best friend was acting all annoyed with him. ‘Man, could things get any worse?’ he wondered.
Still, he pulled out another mask from his pocket and put it on without a word.
The deputy director finished giving Easton his shot and handed over a few days’ worth of meds. “Mr. Foster, your condition is actually worse than Lucas’s.
“Drink plenty of water, take these before bed, and get some good rest. You’ll bounce back soon.”
Easton nodded at him. “Thanks.”
After walking the deputy director out of the study, Ryan turned back, looking a bit worried. “Easton, Sophia’s not as sturdy
as you.
“She’s coming back to Silvermoon Bay tonight. Aren’t you worried she’ll catch whatever you’ve got? Maybe you should give her a her a heads-up about your situation.”
Easton’s face darkened. “Don’t worry. I’ve already told the house staff what to do. When Sophia gets here, I’ll have her take Lucas back to the Roth residence for the night.
“The house staff have cleaned and disinfected every inch of the house, inside and out. As long as she stays out of this study, she’ll be fine.
“I already told her I’ve got an important meeting tonight, so she knows I won’t be able to see her. Once she leaves with Lucas, I’ll head back to the master bedroom to sleep.”
Ryan nodded in understanding. “Alright. Get some rest. I’ll walk the deputy director out. If anything comes up, just call me, okay?”
“Yeah. Go ahead,” Easton replied.
About an hour after Ryan left, Sophia’s car pulled up to Silvermoon Bay.
Sophia got out, and Paolo grabbed her luggage. He looked around, eyes wide with admiration. “Ms. Roth, Mr. Foster really is the richest man in Jenston.

“This house is absolutely luxurious, and it’s right in the heart of the city. Just the land alone must be worth almost a billion dollars, right?”
Sophia stared at the villa in front of her, a mix of familiarity and strangeness washing over her.
It wasn’t until a house staff member came running out that Sophia snapped back to reality.
“Mrs. Foster, you’re finally back. Lucas has been whining all day about when you’d come home,” the house staff member greeted her warmly.
‘Home?’ Sophia echoed the word in her mind.
‘Indeed… This was once the home Easton and I shared, she thought.
But to be exact, it was just the place she had lived for a year.
Sophia gave a faint smile. “Has Lucas eaten yet?”
The house staff nodded. “Yes, he has. Lucas is feeling much better today, and his appetite’s back.”
As Sophia was about to head inside, the house staff hesitated before saying, “Mrs. Foster, Mr. Foster said if you’d like, you can take Lucas home with you tonight.”
Sophia was genuinely surprised.
Just in the car, she’d been wondering if Easton would be upset if she took Lucas home as soon as she got back.
After all, Easton had been looking after Lucas these past few days. If she just took Lucas away now, he’d probably feel a bit reluctant to let go.
Honestly, she never thought he’d be the one to offer first.
“Easton’s not home?” Sophia asked.
The house staff nodded. “Mr. Foster’s really busy tonight. He’s been in the study all evening, in a meeting.”
Sophia nodded slightly. “I’ll go in and check on Lubes RHIN

had mixed feelings now.
All she knew was that it had been almost six years since she walked out of this house.
“Mommy, I missed you so much!” Lucas exclaimed.
The moment he saw Sophia walk in, his whole face lit up, and he ran over, hugging her leg tight.
Sophia bent down and pulled him into her arms. “Let me take a look at you, Lucas.”
Seeing Lucas’s cheeks back to their rosy color, Sophia couldn’t help but smile.
“Mommy knew you weren’t feeling well, and I’ve been so worried about you these past few days,” she said softly.
Lucas wrapped his arms around Sophia’s neck, pouting a little. “Mommy, Daddy’s sick too. Are you also worried about him, just like you were for me?”
