Later that evening, when Sophia opened her Facebook, she found that many influencers had taken screenshots from her live stream and titled them “Henry’s First Wife Exposed” to attract attention. The topic quickly made it to the trending list.
Some praised her figure and clear skin, while others speculated about her profession, asking which hospital or university she worked at. Most of the comments from casual viewers were friendly. However, there were also trolls accusing her of using public sympathy to make money. Some claimed that she had been kicked out of the Scott Family because of her looks. Others defended Olivia and Henry, saying they were truly in love. They further criticized Sophia, claiming she was taking advantage of the situation and calling her a “white lotus.”
Sophia finished reading the comments with a faint smile.
Why should she let strangers dictate her life?
Instead of wasting her time on such drama, she decided to do something more practical—like tending her vegetable garden.

At the same time, Barbara, a medical intern, had just finished her night shift. After changing clothes and preparing to go home, she casually scrolled through Facebook. To her surprise, her feed was flooded with posts about “Henry’s First Wife.”
“Henry? Scott Family? Isn’t that related to Livinus?” Curious, she clicked on a post and found screenshots from the live stream.
Although the so-called “exposure” still showed Sophia fully covered—her face hidden with only her nose visible—there was something strangely familiar about the figure.
Barbara frowned and zoomed in on the image. Suddenly, it clicked.
Even dressed like this, it would be hard for most people to recognize her. But Sophia’s exceptional figure was unmistakable. Barbara had always thought Sophia had the best figure among all her friends, even surpassing those who danced or worked out regularly. Sophia had a natural grace, as though gravity had no hold on her. Her body was so well-maintained that it resembled a teenager’s.
“Sophia?”
“What about Sophia?” asked Jennifer, yawning.
Barbara, still unsure, handed her phone over. “Look at this. Doesn’t this look like Sophia?”
Jennifer squinted at the screen and then widened her eyes in shock. She nodded vigorously.
Both of them froze.
Sophia was Henry’s first wife? The woman at the center of the infamous divorce scandal? The one Olivia had forced out?
“Oh my God! So Sophia married into a wealthy family?”
“Married into a wealthy family? What are you talking about!” Barbara, now fully awake, frowned. “Sophia always acted so normal. I never expected she’d been through so much. And to think we didn’t pay enough attention to her. She’s all alone, and she’s had to go through all this. It must have been so hard for her.”
“Yeah.” Jennifer still hadn’t fully recovered from the shock. “So Sophia went from being a rich housewife to a regular girl?”
“Regular girl? Don’t forget about Livinus!”
Jennifer was startled again. “If Sophia is Henry’s first wife, then Livinus is her uncle! They…”
Barbara thought for a moment, then laughed. “Isn’t that perfect? If she goes back to the Scott Family with Livinus, imagine Henry and Olivia’s look. It would be priceless!”
“True.”
To confirm, Barbara called Sophia. Being roommates, they had no secrets from one another. Sophia admitted it right away.
“Oh my God! So you really are the wife of a billionaire family! I had no idea I had such a rich friend!”
Sophia chuckled. “Did you forget I was kicked out?”
“But you still have Livinus, the golden bachelor!”
“Him?” Thinking of the kiss that day, Sophia shook her head. “We don’t have anything serious yet.”
“Once you’re serious, you’ll be part of a trillion-dollar family! Sophia, I’ve never seen a woman with a more dramatic love life than yours. You have to stand tall and strong! Go back with Livinus, take over the Scott Family’s fortune, and slap Olivia and that idiot couple in the face. Make them kneel and wash your feet!”
Sophia laughed. “Why would I need them to wash my feet?”
“So you’re just going to let it go? Even if you got some alimony from the divorce, that’s what you’re entitled to. And don’t forget the grudge of them stealing your husband!” Barbara said angrily.
Sophia smiled mysteriously. “Who said I’ve forgotten?”
“Then what are you…”
“Don’t worry. I’ll make sure they understand what it feels like to wake up from a dream and realize it was all for nothing.”

Strangely enough, by the next day, all posts about Sophia had been deleted from Facebook. The influencers who had originally been so active on the topic suddenly went silent, leaving netizens puzzled.
