Chapter 50
Juliette paid no attention to Jayden’s attempt to stop her. Instead, she gave me a meaningful look and said, “Evil people get what they deserve. We’ll see. The next second, the door to the hospital room was stakenly pushed open. Sophia had returned.
Sophia’s pane tell on the woman in the room, and her brow furrowed slightly. “What are you doing here?”
Sephia thought she recognized this woman. She was part of the group that helped Joshua fake his illness before
Juliette raised an eyebrow and replied icily, “I’m a doctor. I’m here to change his medication.”
Sophia’s face darkened as she said curtly, “It’s just a little mental shock. There’s no need to make such a big fuss.
Without waiting for a response, she brushed past Juliette and Jaydens and picked up the phone she’d left on the bedside table. Holding the phone in her hand, she looked straight at me. “Joshua, you’re a married man. You should know to keep your distance from women with ulterior motives.”
Before I could defend myself, Juliette’s irritated voice cut in. “Are you talking about me?”
Sophia didn’t answer her question. She simply fixed her gaze on me and asked, “What do you say!
“Alright,” I said hoarsebe, agreeing
There was nothing between Juliette and me, Keeping my distance from her, avoiding unnecessary trouble that could affect her, was the right thing to do. Juliette shot me an angry glare before turning to Sophia, sneering sarcastically. “A scumbag like you with a woman like her. What a perfect match.” She picked up the discarded IV bottle and strode out of the room.
Sophia stood still, her eyes lingering on Juliette’s retreating figure for a moment before turning back to me. Her gaze was dark and inscrutable. “What’s your relationship with her?”
“Nothing”
I noticed her brow tighten ever so slightly. She was clearly skeptical of my answer, but the truth was, Jullette and I had long since become strangers.
Sophia let out a mocking laugh, her gaze growing colder and more contemptuous.
“If there’s really nothing between Joshua and that woman, why does she hate him so much? She hates him but still comes to change his medicine. If she doesn’t still have feelings for him, then why did she do that?” she thought.
Her fingers brushed against her side as she said, “Joshua, remember what I just said. You’re a married man. Don’t let any unpleasant rumors spread. I have something to do. I’m leaving now.”
With her phone in hand, Sophia left in a hurry

My body stiffened as I turned to look at her. “Where did you bury my mom?”
“Restlandi Cemetery,” Sophia said indifferently. After a briel pause, she added, “Do you want to go see her?”
