When Katherine was finally discharged from the hospital, Sophia surprised her with a bouquet of roses.

Just yesterday, she had been so annoyed at Sophia for tempting her with garlic butter prawns that she had planned to ignore her friend for three days straight. However, after seeing the delightful bundle of red roses, she knew she couldn't stay mad anymore.

Since it was the third day, Lewinn's wrinkled skin had smoothened out a lot, making him look so delicate and angelic that Katherine no longer found him an eyesore.

Despite having just given birth, Katherine didn't head to the postpartum care center. In fact, when her pregnancy was first confirmed, Joshua had hired two of the most highly rated postpartum caregivers and a nutritionist to provide the best in-home care. That said, the mansion only had two spare housekeeper rooms, so he was worried about the living arrangements being somewhat cramped.

Eventually, Joshua arranged for both caregivers to share a room and even gave each of them an additional five thousand per month as accommodation fees. Needless to say, the ladies were more than happy to accept the arrangement.

It wasn't Sophia's first time at Katherine and Joshua's riverside mansion, but even so, she couldn't get over how magnificent the views were from the second floor.

Well, well, well. Katherine sure knows how to enjoy life, huh?

Sophia turned and smiled at Alexander. “Stay and chat with Joshua, will you? I'll accompany Kath to her room for a while.”

“Sure,” Alexander replied before letting go of the woman's hand.

Lewinn had already been fed before leaving the hospital, and with the two postpartum caregivers watching over him as he slept, there was simply no need for Katherine or Joshua to be around.

Joshua promptly poured Alexander a cup of coffee, but since both men didn't know each other well and weren't exactly chatty, silence soon befell the living room.


Thankfully, the two of them had long gotten used to sitting in comfortable silence, and neither seemed to want to break the status quo.

Sophia and Katherine, on the other hand, were the complete opposite of their partners. Katherine had always been a chatterbox, and being cooped up in the hospital for five days had nearly driven her stir-crazy. Joshua would dutifully listen to her rattle on about the latest gossip, but as someone who wasn't fond of tittle-tattle, his reactions were never as animated as Sophia's.

Before her pregnancy, Katherine had had times when she had to go through long working days with little to no sleep. After she got pregnant, however, Joshua treated her like a queen, ensuring she got all the rest and food she needed.

The days after giving birth were no exception, either. Katherine had slept so much in the hospital that she had experienced insomnia the night before, prompting Joshua to take pity on her and gave her phone.

Although she had had the phone for thirty minutes, it was enough for her to dig out some juicy gossip.

She had kept the news to herself the entire morning, and now that Alexander was finally out of sight, she pulled Sophia excitedly to her. “Soph, I caught wind of a gossip last night!”

Sophia stopped paring her apple and glanced at her friend lounging on a couch. “When do you not have gossip to share?”

The entertainment industry was rife with scandals, and Katherine, as an actress, usually had access to the latest news in the circle. There was even a small private chat group where she and her fellow actresses would share all sorts of rumors daily.

Of course, everyone was sensible and knew better than to spread the gossip to anyone outside their social circle. After all, the news they had was usually very credible and accurate.

Sophia was nowhere as nosy as Katherine, but even she had to admit the gossip shared could sometimes be hilarious and entertaining.

“No. This one's different! We know the person involved in it.”

“We do? Who?” Sophia asked, raising a brow.

“Bethany White!”

For a moment, Sophia was stunned. Oh, my. It has been two years since I last heard that name... I have almost forgotten about her!

She looked up and shot her friend an amused look. “What's the news?”

Ha! I'm sure it can't be anything good.

“Word has it that Bethany's entering the entertainment industry soon! I don't know the details, but she somehow hooked up with Mr. Loubethon from Planetary Media.”

The name Renard Loubethon was familiar to Sophia. After all, Specter Entertainment and Planetary Media had had several collaborations in the past.
