 The extended Rolls Royce eased along the circular driveway of The Mayer Family villa.Sophia looked out the window. The parking area in front of the mansion was already packed with luxury cars.Looked like a lot of elite heirs and socialites had been invited.Madam, we’ve arrived. The driver parked and stepped out to open the door.Sophia nodded, unbuckled Buddy from his car seat, and helped him down.The moment they stepped out, two uniformed attendants approached them.The driver handed over the gold embossed invitation.After checking it, the attendants bowed politely. Mrs Blackwood, please follow us.Sophia took Buddy’s hand and walked toward the banquet hall with them.It was her first time at The Mayer Family estate.Ethan had mentioned organizing detailed dossiers on all the major families for her.But they had fought right after that, and the matter died off.She als

 Edgar froze for a moment when he saw how calmly Evelyn closed the gift box, though he forced a gentlemanly smile back onto his face.As long as I can make Miss Mayer smile, everything is worth it.The implication was far too direct.Evelyn’s brows tightened slightly, a faint flash of disgust flickering through her eyes.If not for Alexander’s sake, she would never have invited a man like him to her birthday.Edgar seemed ready to keep talking.But Evelyn suddenly shifted her attention elsewhere as if by accident, her eyes lighting up with pleasant surprise as she looked toward Sophia.Sorry, I need to go say hi to Sophia.She left Edgar standing there and briskly walked past him.Sophia, there you are. I was just looking everywhere for you.Even though they had exchanged eye contact several times already.Sophia didn’t expose her. Evelyn, happy birthday.Thank you. The

 The five motorcycles rolled to a stop one after another.Matthew yanked off his helmet, shaking out his sweat dampened hair. Francis, are you insane? You almost killed yourself back there.The other three friends pulled off their helmets too, laughing as they walked over.Uriel clapped Francis on the shoulder. Dude, your skills are insane. That turn was badass.Francis didn’t respond.He pulled a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, stuck one between his lips, lit it, and exhaled a slow ring of smoke.Percy chuckled. Francis, where have you been lately? You even stopped going to class.Where else would he go? Matthew snorted. He’s probably been hiding out like some wild hermit again.Uriel added, You didn’t get into another fight with Mr Mayer, did you?Francis still said nothing. He gripped the railing with both hands, staring coldly into the distance.Matthew leaned beside him, ram

The spacious tearoom was quiet and tastefully lit, the warm glow softening every corner.Sophia sat with perfect composure, holding a porcelain teacup. She lifted it, took a slow sip, and lowered it again with effortless grace.Francis sat across from her. Watching how calm she was made him suddenly unsure of everything.Was this woman really his sister?Sophia, before I get to the important part, I want to tell you a story first. Is that okay?He broke the silence.Sophia nodded lightly. You’re the one talking. Go ahead.Francis inhaled deeply and began.Twenty three years ago, a pair of childhood sweethearts got married. Half a year later, the wife got pregnant with their first child.One day, just like usual, the pregnant wife went out shopping. She had bodyguards with her. She only went to the restroom and… she never came back.His voice dropped as he spoke.Her husband went crazy. Both families did everything they could, but she was nowhere to be found.Sophia’s eyelashes tremble

 Alyssa listened quietly, but the tighter her chest pulled, the more she couldn’t help calling softly, Sophia…Sophia suddenly lifted her hand and gently stroked her still flat stomach.If I weren’t pregnant right now, I’d be popping champagne and celebrating till dawn.Alyssa leaned forward and grabbed her hand tightly. Don’t say that. There’s no one else here. Just me.I know you’re hurting. If you want to cry, then cry. You don’t need to hold it in with me.A tiny crack split through Sophia’s perfect mask.She yanked her hand back. Cry? Why would I cry?I finally got everything I ever dreamed of.I should be happy! I…She suddenly met Alyssa’s eyes, filled with raw, aching concern.Her words jammed in her throat.And the string she had held taut for years snapped in an instant.A strangled sob burst out of her.
