Chapter 405

Aubree said, “Obviously, this isn’t the only thing I've got planned. Oh, by the way, I've got a class reunion

coming up in a few days.

She didn’t really hang out with her classmates much, but since they were all from Rithol University, it never hurt

to build

more connections

Maybe one of them would end up as her trusted right-hand or even a business partner someday

Ever since her birthday, she'd basically been living at Ellis Heights. If Bowen was out of town on business and

she was too lazy

go back there alone, she'd just crash at her own apartment instead.

“Alright, just givea call when it’s time, and I'll cpick you up,” Bowen said.

Trevor was surprisingly patient. Instead of rushing to clear his name, he stayed by Sophia's side the whole time.

He got caught on camera.

The reporters camped out at the hospital entrance snapped pictures of him looking rough. He was unshaven,

with bloodshot eyes that clearly showed he hadn't been sleeping well.

A person commented online: [Oh my god, is that really Trevor? He looks so worn out!]

Another person wrote: [Those trolls online are really too much. Trevor's just as heartbroken about losing the baby

as anyone else!]

A third person commented: [I live near the hospital, and for the past few days, I've seen Trevor coming out to

buy food that’s supposed to be good for women recovering from a miscarriage. He's really looking after her.]

Someone else wrote: [Damn, my heart aches for you, man!]

No matter what, good-looking people would always look good in any condition Trevor wasn’t even really a mess.

He was just putting on a sad act, but he still looked every bit the star he was supposed to be.

His whole “playing the victim” move totally worked. The online hate against him flipped almost instantly.

Then, Trevor's stureleased a statement saying that, due to spersonal issues, he was putting all business

activities on hold for now. Still, out of consideration for his fans and the media, he would agree to do a single

interview.

Aubree thought to herself, ‘Pretty clever,

“Retreat to advance, huh? Trevor really knows how to pull a slick move.

She glanced at the latest news, a cold smile tugging at her lips,

On camera, Trevor had tidied himself up a little, but the bloodshot eyes and dark circles under them were still

painfully obvious. The reporters interviewing him couldn’t help but feel a wave of sympathy.

“Trevor, sometimes you just have to let things go,” one of them said softly.

He gave a faint, bitter smile. “It’s fine. Askanything you want.”

The reporters, who'd choping for an exclusive scoop, suddenly hesitated. Any question they asked now

would just be twisting the knife in Trevor's wounds. They felt that someone as perfect as him shouldn't have to

go through this.

Thevor said, “Not going to ask anything? Guess I'll just say a few words myself, then.

“I know what the internet's saying right now-people are speculating that | set up Sophia’s miscarriage on

purpose, that 1 dragged her to meet Aubree even though everyone knows Aubree and | don’t get along.

“Since Milena likes me, people suspect that it must've beenwho arranged for her to show up too.

Chapter 405

“Yeah, but con- -do you really think I'm that dumb? It was Sophia who wanted to meet Aubree in the first

place. | only tagged along because | know Aubree isn’t exactly my biggest fan.

“I was worried something might go wrong. Besides, Aubree’s still my sister. She’s the baby’s aunt, after all.”

He paused for a moment and let out a long sigh. “Milena was honestly the last person | expected to turn on me.

“We didn’t know the Yurchenko family would end up like that. Our families did have sconnections-you could

tell from our previous investments.

“But we never expected them to turn out like that. As for Milena, | really think she’s innocent. She’s always been

a fan of mine, so | just tried to help her out and brought her over to Rithol City to look after her

Online, people were saying Milena was someone Trevor had planted himself. The main reason for that rumor was

that Milcha was supposed to be in Stdlichen Strand. It was unknown how she suddenly showed up in Rithol City

and knew exactly where Trevor was.

He was basically clearing that up now.

“I never saw this coming, | really didn’t... Trevor's voice was choked with emotion, and the reporter from earlier

looked at him, eyes brimming with sympathy and heartache.

Just when Trevor thought the interview was about to wrap up smoothly, a sudden voice broke the silence.

“Trevor, how do you explain the fact that it was actually abortion pills that caused Sophia's miscarriage?” the

voice demanded.
