Marionne continues to work his magic with Sophia. He maintains a caring and loving fianceé. Sophia is like a willing victim, believing everything he says and does. And Ava remains the antagonist in their love story.

Sophia could not hold back anymore.

It even became trending on social media. It was like a wildfire that started as a flicker then spread uncontrollably."Marionne, what is this?" His father forcefully placed a newspaper at the table showing him and Sophia on a sweet picture together. "What on earth are you thinking, son?""Dad, calm down, okay? I know what I'm doing." Marionne answered his father calmly."You know what you're doing. It doesn't seem to me that way. You're marrying a Rothschild. How could you say that you know what you're doing?"
