Chapter 406

“Trevor, how do you explain the fact that Sophia took an abortion drug?” The words exploded in the room.

Trevor froze for a second before thinking, “Haven’t I already buried this news? Besides, everyone here has been prepped.”

“Trevor, can you answer my question?” the reporter pressed again.

“I…” Trevor forced himself to stay calm. He felt lucky that he’d been looking so haggard lately, which allowed him to play the victim. No one could see through him at that moment.

“All I can say is, I didn’t know anything about this at first. I’m looking into it now, and I’ll let everyone know as soon as I find out anything,” he said.

The reporter who’d brought up the abortion drug clearly wasn’t going to let him off the hook. “Really? Well, I hope you’re not trying to cover anything up, Trevor. We’re all pretty concerned about this.”

Trevor’s expression darkened as he glanced at the reporter’s badge. He let out a bitter laugh. “I didn’t expect things to turn out like this. Maybe Sophia…”

He trailed off, and his assistant, Joey Reed, stepped in at just the right moment. “Trevor, Sophia’s about to go in for her check-up.”

Trevor looked at the reporters apologetically, “Sorry, but we’ll have to wrap this up here.”

Once the reporters were gone, Trevor’s face turned stormy. “Who let in ‘FunBuzz Entertainment?’”

“FunBuzz Entertainment? Never heard of them,” Joey replied.

Trevor frowned. He’d thought it was just some random tabloid trying to dig up dirt, or maybe someone got bribed last minute. He never expected someone had just crashed the event.

“Find out who they are,” Trevor ordered. His mind immediately jumped to Aubree.

Only the hospital, Trevor, Sophia, and Aubree knew about the abortion drug. The hospital would never leak a patient’s privacy, and Sophia was stuck in bed all day. He’d confiscated all her devices and even had someone watching her. There was no way it could be her.

So Trevor felt that it could only be Aubree.

Trevor’s eyes flickered. So this is the card she kept up her sleeve?

He’d been suspicious before, but now Trevor was certain that Sophia had already taken the abortion drug before she even went to see Aubree.

Damn, she really went for the jugular. Sophia’s such a fool to trust Aubree that much. Without the baby, what makes her think I’ll still spoil her? he thought.

He had no intention of finding out how Sophia ended up taking the abortion drug. Even if he couldn’t figure it out, it didn’t matter. The important thing was making sure the blame didn’t land on him.

Trevor lowered his gaze to his phone, staring at the chat with Milena. She hadn’t replied to any of his messages since that day.

So you’re just going to ignore me, huh? he thought while smirking.

Meanwhile, the reporter who grilled Trevor about Sophia’s abortion drug pulled his baseball cap low and walked over to a car.

The window rolled down, revealing Aubree’s face.

“Ms. Miller, I did exactly what you told me to do,” the reporter said.

“Nice work. The money’s in your account. You know what to do when the interview goes public, right?” Aubree asked.

“Of course. We’re pros,” the reporter replied confidently.

The interview dropped that night. FunBuzz Entertainment, bankrolled by Carr Group and based in Rithol City, was famous for asking the wildest questions and never being afraid of getting into trouble.

If things ever got too messy, they’d just rebrand and come back from the dead. After all, their boss was loaded, and with all the hot gossip they broke, they never lost out on a scoop.

The news that Sophia had miscarried because of an abortion drug set off an absolute shitstorm.

A person wrote online: “[No way, is there really another plot twist?”

Another person asked: “I thought it was either Trevor scheming or Milena being jealous. Who would’ve thought Sophia took the abortion drug? What on earth was she thinking?”

A third person commented: “[It’s not like Sophia took the drug willingly, right?”

Someone else asked: “[Who can really say what goes on in those rich families? For all we know, Trevor could’ve made Sophia take the drug just to frame Aubree.]”

The comment section was at each other’s throats again.
