Chapter 274: Sharing the Good News with Grandma
Sophie feels a bit suffocated when she talks about Serena, so she decides to stop. However, something suddenly crosses her mind.
The first time she hears Harvey’s name, Sophie feels suspicious about the connection between Sawyer and Harvey. But upon looking for similarities in their features, she finds none and dismisses her concerns.
"Abby, you mentioned earlier that Harvey is Sawyer’s older brother?" Sophie asked, curious.
Abigail nodded, confirming Sophie’s question before saying, "Half-brother. And Harvey really hated Sawyer. The reason Sawyer didn’t feel close to his family, particularly her father and siblings, was that Harvey mistreated him," she explained bitterly, imagining Sawyer’s youth in the Jones family.
Sophie feels sympathy for Sawyer, understanding that he faced unfairness in his family, just like Abigail. "My goodness, I feel for Sawyer. I hope his brother no longer bullies him, as they’re all grown up now..."
"Well, he still..." Abigail smiles bitterly. "That’s why I was shocked when I heard Serena wanted to marry Harvey. She knows exactly how terrible Harvey treated Sawyer in the past..."
"Oh, Abby. Why do I get a headache just thinking about them? Let’s not talk about them, okay?"
Sophie took a deep breath. She was too exhausted to understand young people’s relationships. Not wanting to discuss them any further, she decided to shift the conversation to a topic she was curious about.
Abigail could only nod in agreement with her Grandma. She also felt drained by the idea of trying to understand Serena and Harvey’s motives for getting married.
