Chapter 1534
“Absolutely!” Veronica exclaimed. “That Bartlett has been eyeing my sister-in-law like a fresh apple pie out of the
oven. It’s infuriating!”
“My uncle’s been MIA for three years now. We have to consider what’s best for Ellinor. Bartlett is a good guy who
clearly has feelings for her. Most importantly, he doesn’t mind that she has a child. That alone puts him ahead of
most men. If Ellinor is open to exploring a relationship with Bartlett, I wouldn’t be opposed to it.”
Veronica scoffed. “Well, good for you, but I’m against it!”
Belinda, busy with her therapy, didn’t have time to deal with Veronica’s drama. “Whether you oppose it or not

With that, Belinda quickly ended the call.
“Hey… hey!? Damn it!” Veronica, hearing the busy signal on the other end of the line, could only hang up and
grudgingly head out to fly kites with Baber and Layla.
Greenhaven Hotel.
In the Presidential Suite, Marcus was in the living room watching cartoons with his son.
Sophia was making coffee in the kitchen, her eyes occasionally drifting to the man and child in the living room.
Some fruit was delivered from the hotel’s room service. Sophia brought it over to Marcus and their son.
The cartoon playing on the TV was one that Tristan had never seen before. Sophia, curious, speared a piece of
cantaloupe with her fork and offered it to ‘Tristan.’
“Tristan, why the sudden interest in this cartoon? Weren’t you all about Super Robots and Iron Giants before?”
Distracted, Tristan’ turned to give Sophia an annoyed look. “I got bored of those. Can’t I switch it up a bit?”
Caught off guard by Tristan’s irritated response, Sophia almost lost her composure. “Of course you can, sweetheart.
I was just curious, that’s all
Ignoring Sophia’s attempt to feed him fruit, ‘Tristan’ turned back to the TV.
Sophia gritted her teeth subtly. She picked up a toy from the toy box and casually asked, “Tristan, do you remember
who bought you this toy?”
‘Tristan’ glanced at the toy. He was visibly annoyed. “Obviously, you did!”
Who else could it be? Handsome Dad can’t go out!
Just as Sophia was about to say something else, Marcus interrupted her. “Alright, let him watch his show. Don’t

Sophia looked over at-Marcus. “Marcus, I’m just worried that Tristan is watching too much TV. It’s not good for his
eyes.”
Marcus calmly responded. “He won’t watch for too long. He promised me that he would take a break after this
episode.”
Sophia felt a hint of embarrassment.
But then again, how could caring for a child be considered meddling? She was the lady of the house.
After pondering for a moment, Sophia moved closer to Marcus and whispered, “Marcus, I’m starting to suspect that
Tristan is behaving differently. Have you noticed anything?”
Upon hearing this, Marcus looked at Sophia, his gaze deep and complex. He glanced at their son.
“I don’t see any difference. I haven’t noticed anything.”
