Chapter 1435
Sophia glanced down at the child in her arms, his face hidden behind a Batman mask, with a warm glow of
happiness in her eyes.
“Indeed, this is my son. I’m married now, did you know? This is Tristan, my husband and I’s child. Say hello to
Ellinor, Tristan.”
However, the young boy, whose face was hidden behind the Batman mask, ignored his mother’s command to greet
Ellinor. His attention was solely on the balloon in the old man’s hand.
Ellinor’s brows furrowed thoughtfully as she observed Sophia. “You’re married now? To whom?”
Sophia responded with a cheerful laugh. “You wouldn’t know him. My husband is an average Joe and was raised
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtabroad his whole life. He’s never been here before. You’ve never met him, Ellinor.”
“Is that so?” Ellinor squinted her eyes as a thoughtful look appeared on her face.
After noticing Ellinor’s expression, Sophia broke into a laugh. “Ellinor, you’re not thinking my husband is Theo, are
you?”
Upon hearing Theo’s name from Sophia’s lips, Ellinor’s heart tightened slightly, but her gaze was still scrutinizing.
Sophia’s face held no guilt of oddity. There was even a hint of self-deprecating humor. “I wish I could have married
Theo, but he didn’t have feelings for me.
Despite my pleas, he insisted on annulling our marriage and returning to you.
It was a blow to me, but I gradually accepted it and moved on.
Luckily, I met my current husband, who loves me dearly. I feel truly blessed.”
Ellinor couldn’t find any flaw in Sophia’s act, yet a shadow of doubt lingered in her heart. She asked, “What’s your
husband’s last name?”
Sophia didn’t shy away from the question. “My husband’s last name is Rogers. Ellinor, I know you’re suspicious, but
you’re overthinking it.
I heard that there’s still no trace of Theo after all these years. It’s quite regrettable.”
“But even if Theo isn’t here, you now hold the title of Mrs. Blanchet. Isn’t that what you’ve always wanted?”
Sophia sounded pleasant, but everything she said was laced with sarcasm and irony
Ellinor didn’t care about Sophia’s sarcasm. During these years, she never stopped suspecting that Sophia had
something to do with Theo’s disappearance, but she never found any evidence.
Three years ago, she flew to M State to confront Sophia as soon as her twins were out of the incubator.

At that time, Sophia confidently claimed that after the annulment, she had sent Theo to the airport and never seen
him again. She didn’t know where he went.
And she even allowed them to search her father’s estate.
But they found no clue.
The only lead they found in M State was a surveillance video from the airport showing Theo being wheeled into the
terminal by Collin. That was the last image of him before he vanished..
In the end, neither of them boarded the plane. They just… disappeared.
“By the way, Ellinor, what brings you here?” Sophia asked with a smile.
Ellinor snapped back to reality and answered Sophia’s question. “Picking up my children.”
Sophia’s gaze flickered to Bartlett standing beside her. She asked with a hint of mischief. “Both of you are picking
up the kids? Your kids, or…”
Bartlett was about to respond with a chuckle, but Ellinor beat him to it. “I’m here to pick up my kids. He’s just
passing by.”
With a knowing smile, Sophia said, “So Mr. Rex is just passing by. And here I thought you two were dating.”
