Chapter 128
“No?” The policewoman frowned, “We’ll know if it’s your child once we find out.”
Sophia frowned.
She and Vincent weren’t divorced yet, and Rowan was indeed still her child.
“I’m in the middle of a divorce with the baby’s father, the kid isn’t my biological child, child custody goes to his father.” Sophia explained patiently.
“Even if that’s the case, you are still the child’s legal guardian now, I understand that it’s not good for the stepmother to be a stepmother, but this child is only five years old, he’s been chanting all the way to find his mom, I can see that the child is quite dependent on you, don’t be too cruel, treat the child well!”
Hearing this, Sophia knew that explaining any more would be redundant, she looked at Rowan.
“Rowan, call your dad and ask him to come pick you up.”
“Mom, dad hasn’t come home for a few days, he didn’t answer when I called him.”
Rowan forced himself to hold back his sobs and looked at Sophia with tears in his eyes, “Mommy I’ll be good, just let me stay with you for a few days, okay? I’m so scared to be home alone.”
Seeing this, the female police officer looked at Sophia with a look of contempt.
“The child came out of the house alone just to look for you, in such a cold day, the child is wearing a set of pajamas, his feet are all red with cold, how pitiful!”
Upon hearing this, Sophia’s gaze subconsciously swept to Rowan’s exposed little feet.
They were dirty, and the ten tiny toes were red from the cold.
She couldn’t help but wrinkle her eyebrows.
The female police officer could see that she was heartbroken, and sighed and advised, “I can see that you’re a kind–hearted person, even if the child isn’t your own, but seeing as the child calls you mom, you shouldn’t kick the
child out.”
Sophia pursed her lips.
Rowan was eventually left behind.
Sophia walked out of the lounge and called Vincent.

Vincent’s side showed that he was on the line.
Sophia sits on the couch, looking a little cold.

Rowan walks out and climbs onto the couch, sitting obediently next to Sophia.
Sophia turns her head and lowers her eyes, her eyes fall on Rowan’s small face
Rowan immediately lowered his head and stirred the zipper of his jacket with his two small hands, looking a little
nervous.
Sophia had mixed feelings in her heart.
She knew that the child was innocent, and knew that she shouldn’t transfer the grudge between adults to a child.
However, once she thought of Rowan as their child, she really couldn’t treat Rowan the way she did before.
Sophia withdrew her eyes and dialed Vincent’s number again.
This time, Vincent finally answered.
Without waiting for Vincent to speak, Sophia directly spoke, “Rowan is here with me, come and pick him up.”
“Good.”
After getting a clear response from Vincent, Sophia hung up the phone.
“Mom.”
“Rowan, you have your own mom, her name is Doris.”
Sophia looked him in the eyes, her voice was cold, “I’m not your mom, don’t you ever tell anyone that I’m your mom again, actions like the one you did today when you told the police that I’m your mom have already caused me a lot of distress.”
Rowan stared at Sophia in bewilderment.
The dismay and aggression in the child’s eyes simply could not be hidden.
Sophia couldn’t bear to look at it any longer after all and looked away.
Rowan frowned, remembering what Doris’s mother had said to her-
‘If you’re carrying a baby, when you’re in danger, a mom will subconsciously protect her stomach.‘
He lowered his head and glanced at a magazine next to the sofa.

Is mom really pregnant with a baby?
Rowan gritted his teeth, violently grabbed the magazine and threw it towards Sophia’s stomach-
