Chapter 1542

    -Corinne knew Sophia was testing her, so she feigned surprise. “Triplets? You must’ve remembered


    wrongly. I have three children, but I only gave birth to twins. The eldest was adopted by Jeremy under


    some circumstances in the past.”


    Sophia locked eyes with Corinne intently. “Are you sure? I heard rumors you had triplets.” Her primary


    aim was to determine whether Corinne knew Bryan and Benjamin were switched. She had seen


    Corinne talking gently to Benjamin but could not discern the contents of their conversation.


    Corinne knew right away that Sophia was up to something. “Where did you hear that from? One of the


    doctors told me during my prenatal check-up that I was carrying triplets. I remember that clearly, but I


    gave birth only to twins! I kept convincing myself that I must’ve misheard him. I’m surprised you heard


    simr rumors, too. Could you tell me who told you that? Does that person know what happened? Did


    they see someone take one of my children away?”


    Midway through the conversation, Corinne held Sophia’s hand to give more credibility to her act.


    Sophia, taken aback by Corinne’s response, withdrew her hand following Corinne’s questioning. She


    cleared her throat and said, “I can’t remember who mentioned it, but I heard people saying you had


    triplets. That person might’ve thought the adopted child was one of the triplets.”


    Corinne appeared disappointed, saying, “I see… I thought you might have some inside information that


    could prove that I had triplets.”


    Corinne’s attitude left Sophia feeling half-skeptical. She had begun to grasp the situation through their


    exchange. Corinne seemed to be unaware that she had given birth to triplets, and the people around


    her were concealing the fact that she had lost a child. Corinne likely only vaguely recalled the doctor’s


    remark about possibly having triplets, and she might not even know or be certain about the existence of


    another child.


    Having summed up all that information, Sophia looked at Benjamin as he was busy choosing his toy.


    All of a sudden, she deliberately called out,” Benjamin!”


    Benjamin had just taken a small box of toys when he heard Sophia’s voice. He dropped the box right


    away. His knees weakened, and he fell bottom- first to the ground.


    Corinne then hurried over to check on her son’s condition, calling him ‘ Bryan’.


    “Is something wrong, ‘Bryan’? Are you okay? Does it hurt?”


    Sophia’s lingering suspicions about Corinne were thoroughly dispelled when thetter rushed over and


    called the boy ‘Bryan’. However, she was able to confirm that Benjamin was with Corinne, while Bryan


    was with her.


    Corinne checked on her son to ensure he was not hurt. He then helped him retrieve the fallen toy box.


    “Was this what you wanted?”


    Benjamin did not seem interested in the toy. Instead, he turned to look in the direction where he heard


    Sophia’s voice. However, no one was there.


    Corinne noticed her son’s reaction and looked over as well, but Sophia was no longer around.


    She narrowed her eyes and realized it was no coincidence. Sophia came just to test her.


    Just before she left the Holdens’ estate, Corinne received a processed text message on her phone.

    [Sophia probably knows that you have the wrong child. Stay calm, and don’t let her discover anything.


    She must never know that you’re aware of my existence, or that the two boys had been swapped.] The


    message came from an unknown sender, but Corinne knew right away that Jeremy had sent it to warn


    her.
