Chapter 97: Suspicious of Sophia Morrison
Aurora smiled awkwardly, stunned as Sophia walked alongside her and linked their arms.
Despite her efforts to appear calm and friendly, a tiny flicker of annoyance toward this woman lingered in her heart.
"Aurora, there’s no need to feel anxious about meeting the rest of the family. If you’re afraid to talk to them, you can remain quiet and stay close to me," Sophia said softly.
Her words gave Aurora goosebumps because what Sophia said echoed Alex’s words.
"Thank you, Sophia. I’ll keep that in mind," Aurora replied with a smile, walking alongside Sophia as she listened to her talk about her lovely house.
Every word Sophia uses to describe this house brings back memories for Aurora, and with each one deepening her heartache, it makes her truly miss her father.
She keeps her eyes on her father, who follows behind Matthew Graystone. Occasionally, she attempts to look away, anxious that someone might notice her. Yet, it is challenging.
"Oh, right! I forgot to thank you, Aurora." Sophia tightened her grip on Aurora’s arms, eager to express how excited and happy she felt now.
"Thank me? For what...?" Aurora asked, confused. She couldn’t recall doing anything to assist her.
