Chương 71: Ethan, you've got some wild tastes

"Ryan, can we not talk about this, please?" Sofia's eyes were red as she turned her head away, unable to meet Ryan's gaze.

"Mom." Ryan's fists were clenched white, his eyes fixed on her. He felt a tightness in his chest. He had thought he was acting for his mother's happiness, but instead, he had pushed his young and beautiful mother towards that sleazy middle-aged doctor.

Her expression now felt like a slap in his face.

Could it get any worse than ending up with a middle-aged doctor?

"I'm sorry, Ryan, I... just give me some time," Sofia pleaded, remembering Ethan's advice to keep their affair secret unless absolutely necessary.

She had her pride. If Ryan found out that his mother had been intimate with a bedridden young man...

Sofia felt like she could just die of shame.

All she could do now was hope that Ethan's mysterious plans wouldn't fall apart. She was too far in to back out now.
