Chapter 356

“Is it Sophia?”

Sophia’s grip on her phone tightened. It was a young woman’s voice. She thought it was Milena.

“Who are you?” Sophia was extremely nervous. Being found at a time like this was anything but good news.

A soft chuckle came from the other end. “I’m Aubree Miller.”

Sophia froze. Of course, she was familiar with that name. On the contrary, it was etched in her memory.

That girl who had once shown up on set to discuss a collaboration with Sylvia had now become a household name, the youngest entrepreneurial success story in the country.

Back then, Sophia had even been jealous of Aubree.

She instinctively touched her belly. Her throat was dry from anxiety. “Why are you calling me? What do you want?”

Aubree didn’t answer directly. “How have you been lately? Is the baby doing well?”

Sophia’s heart skipped a beat. Her phone nearly slipped from her hand. She didn’t expect Aubree to know about the baby.

Her pregnancy wasn’t that far along, only four months. She had planned to approach Trevor at around seven or eight months. She hadn’t gone out much lately. However, Aubree knew about it.

“What do you want?” Sophia’s voice rose uncontrollably. Aubree didn’t get along with Trevor. She was afraid Aubree wanted to harm the baby.

“Don’t panic. I don’t intend to do anything to the baby. Technically speaking, that child is my nephew, isn’t he?” Aubree sounded as if she saw right through her.

She continued, “You saw the news online, didn’t you? It must’ve been hard. Actually, if I can find out about your pregnancy, Trevor certainly can too. The truth is, he just doesn’t care about you.”

She added, “Just like in this current situation. He can abandon Milena at any time, and he can just as easily throw you away.”

Sophia fell silent. She had been counting on her child as her ticket to status, but that didn’t mean she didn’t care about Trevor. Deep down, she still loved him.

Of course, she resented how heartless he had been, discarding her so easily.

Aubree’s words made Sophia alert. She had been too optimistic about everything. She hadn’t considered the possibility that Trevor might deny the child, or worse, that the Wilson family might choose to keep the baby but not her.

Trevor wasn’t just a celebrity actor. He was the heir of a powerful family.

But even if that were true, Sophia didn’t know if helping Aubree could guarantee her success. Sophia felt torn. And in her hesitation, the TV in the room suddenly broadcast a news interview.

“I’m Birgitte Cherniavsky. The online rumors are true. Why would I joke about something like that? Yes, I really was… No, those people aren’t worthy of being called my family.”

“What does it have to do with Milena? Do you know how I was kidnapped that day? I went to a club for a business meeting, and it was there that I was abducted. The ones who took me were my so-called father and brother.”

“Do you really think they could’ve entered the club and known my whereabouts without help? And it just so happens the club’s management has deep ties to the Yurchenko family.”

Sophia listened to the interview, her mind a complete blank. When she first saw the trending topic, she had pitied Birgitte. But if what she was saying was true, and Milena was behind it all…

The interview continued. Birgitte’s voice still came from the TV.

“Why would she do this to me? Actually, I don’t even know Milena personally, but she’s in love with Trevor.”

“My boss, Aubree Miller, is Trevor Wilson’s sister. Milena misunderstood their relationship. Unable to deal with Aubree directly, she targeted me instead. Even if there’s no hard evidence against her, I won’t let any of what I suffered go.”

Birgitte’s goal was clearly to keep putting pressure on Milena by publicizing her story. Reporters wanted to interview her, and she gladly accepted.
