Become the Richest Woman After Divorce

Chapter 136 My Wife

The worried expression on Derick’s face did not lessen.

Sophia suppressed a cough and smiled:

“Surviving was already good enough, this little cough was nothing.”

Derick looked at her with a heartache, “It will be okay, Sophia!”

Sophia nodded.

The doctor left immediately after finishing the examination.

The room fell silent.

Derick looked at her gently, “Are you hungry? Shall I have them make something light for you?”

Sophia shook her head.

“Did my parents know?”

She didn’t see Brycen and Cecilia, all the doctors here were foreigners

too.

So she knew, she was not in Zennland then.

She worried that her family had found out about her accident, and that Brycen and Cecilia wouldn’t be able to handle it.

Derick tucked the corner of the blanket around her.

You were in a coma, teetering between life and death, so they weren’t told about your situation.

“Wait a moment, then tell them this surprise?”

After some thought, Sophia agreed and nodded.

Chapter 136: My Wife

She had been in a coma for the past few months, losing a significant amount of weight, even her chin had become sharper. She looked somewhat pale and weak, yet delicately refined.

Derick couldn’t help but feel heartache.

“Rest assured and recuperate here, you had a severe lung infection, the medical level in our country did not have this condition, I have the best laboratory experts here, who can consult for you at any time.”

Also, how did you get those wounds on your body…”

Derick’s eyes darkened.

I remember when I saved her, the sight of her injuries shocked me.

Those seemed to be the marks of a whipping on her back, clearly cruel

traces.

Why did she suddenly disappear, why was she beaten, why was she hung outside the window…

Derick’s heart involuntarily hardened, yet he dared not show too much anger, fearing it would stir up her sad memories.

Sophia slightly lowered her gaze.

The scenes before she fell into the sea were all still fresh in memory.

How could she have forgotten?

The wounds on her body were inflicted by Daniel. However, after he had finished whipping her, he heard Pierce’s voice and hastily tied her up, hanging her outside the window.

Sophia shivered slightly all over.

The newly healed wounds all started to itch.

She tugged at the corner of her mouth, “Did you know what happened next? How did you suddenly jump down to save me?”

Just as Derick was about to speak, the servant at the door knocked.

He paused, then stood up and walked over.

“Sir, this is freshly cooked porridge. The doctor said to let your wife eat something first, otherwise she might feel uncomfortable in her stomach.”

Derick’s Adam’s apple bobbed, he hummed in response, and took it.

The servant didn’t come in, but directly backed out.

Hearing the servant’s address, Sophia was somewhat surprised, looking over in confusion.

Derick walked over with the porridge, stirred it with a spoon, his voice warm and deep:

“If my family knew I moved in with a girl, they would be suspicious and ask a million questions, so I could only say she was my wife from Zennland.”

Sophia touched her hair, a moment of strangeness crossing her mind.

She chuckled, “It’s okay, I was the one who took advantage of you!”

Derick looked up, their gazes collided.

His eyes were deep, as if he wanted to say something, but he felt that it wasn’t the best time.

He handed it over only after he saw that the porridge was at the right
