Sophia stood still for a while, staring at the old woman's flare-up at her and once it seemed like the old woman was done speaking, she smiled politely at her.“Mother, you need to calm down. I might have had a bad relationship with your daughter in the past and I understand that must be the reason you seemed so angry, but trust me, it's all sorted out.”“Sorted out?” She asked, Mrs. Bennett was finding it difficult to believe the words she was saying, yet she did not stop staring at Sophia with nothing but disgust and contempt.“Yes, in fact, I know you haven't been informed of it, but Mr. Bennett and I are really close. In fact, we might soon become a couple, which is why I wanted to see you and have some motherly advice from you.”Seeing that she had calmed down, Sophia drifted closer to her and tried to wrap her hands around her. But Mrs. Bennett had forgotten all about her sickness or how weak she was. She raised her hand and slammed Sophia pretty hard in the face.Sophia felt h

As the car drove off and Sasha was seated next to Ethan, even with the mask that concealed his face, she knew that he was the one and slowly rested her head on his shoulder.“Never thought that I would be seeing you again!” She muttered, but Ethan clenched his fist, just staring at her had sent so much rage down his spine. “He did this to you?” he asked, staring at her face, which was both bruised and red. She nodded with a smile on her face like it wasn't a big deal.“It doesn't matter, what matters is that I am safe and out of there. "I was so afraid, knowing that I had no one and no means of getting out of there, how did you know that I was there?”“You skipped dinner yesterday. I was so furious and decided to check you up at your home to find out why, but you were not there. That was when I knew something was wrong and started investigating.”He explained, the expression on his face was still sore as he spoke. “Thank you so much, Ethan, I can't explain to you how grateful I am.“

When the Bennett convoy arrived in front of Rico's mansion, even the security at the gate were all stunned. They were all aware that visiting home was for a private between those who were very familiar with Mr. Rico, but knowing that The Bennett group was not close to him, they could not fathom why Mr. Bennett had chosen to visit home instead of the office.But he was a very powerful man, one that they did not dare with and, as a result of that, no questions were asked while they swung the gate open.He was welcomed into the large luxury living room that seemed so dead with no family pictures aside for a few paintings that only portrayed sadness to Ethan.He was offered a glass of juice by the butler, while the security stood behind him.
