“I’ve been busy.” Gwen smiled. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Sofia had a great relationship with Gwen’s mother. Since Gwen’s parents passed away, Sofia and her husband, Andy, had been taking care of the siblings until Gwen’s 18th birthday, after which Sofia finally felt free to start her world tour.
Sofia had always played the role of a mother during Gwen’s childhood, and Gwen had long considered he a true family member.
Gwen looked around and gave Sofia a sly smile. “Aunt Sofia, why haven’t I seen Uncle Andy?”
“Forget about him!” Sofia pretended to be angry. “Stop bringing him up.”
“Okay.” Gwen pursed her lips to hold back a laugh.
Sofia and Andy were a pair of quarreling lovers. When they were together, they would argue, but when apart, they cared for each other.
In their youth, a moment of anger led to a brief divorce, and Andy immediately regretted it, which started his arduous pursuit of his wife.
He even handed over Elba Group’s business to the underage William to chase after his wife all over the world.
“I heard about your divorce from Henry. At your age, you’re still treating marriage like a joke.” Sofia scratched Gwen’s nose, her gaze full of love as she carefully studied Gwen’s face.
“What did I teach you back then? If you’re bullied, you must fight back. You’re my treasure, with the entire Elba Group and Lawson Group backing you up.”
“I didn’t tell anyone because I didn’t want my family to worry.” Gwen hugged Sofia’s arm tightly, and said, I’m sorry.
Gwen wasn’t incapable of showing weakness. It was just that her soft side should be revealed only in front of her most important family members.
Seeing Gwen’s good attitude in admitting her mistake, Sofia suddenly sighed.
*Aunt Sofia, what’s wrong?”
Sofia patted Gwen’s head. “If only I had been a step quicker back then. With my relationship with your mom, you would’ve definitely been my daughter–in–law. There wouldn’t have been any reason for you to suffer so much from misunderstandings.
“It’s my fault. I’ve only been focusing on my travels these past few years and neglected you. It would’ve been better if your parents were still around.”
Those things are all in the past!” Gwen felt a tingle in her nose, and her eyes grew slightly moist as she leaned affectionately against Sofia. She said, “Having you guys here is just the same. You’re as close to me as my parents.
“Gwen, since you’re free now, have you considered William? William is tall and handsome, and he has a very stable personality. We must arrange for you to meet him this time. If you hit it off, I’ll arrange your wedding right then and there.”
Sofia became more and more excited as she spoke. Gwen, what do you think? Hurry and answer me.”
Gwen was silent.
The sound of Gwen’s even breathing reached Sofia’s ears, and she was momentarily taken aback before smiling as she stroked Gwen’s hand.
“Sleep well. You’ve had a long day.
Gwen slept soundly that night.
The next morning. Gwen got up early and followed Sofa to the photography exhibition.
Sofia was not only William’s mother and the president of Elba Group, but she was also one of the top three travel bloggers on Instagram, khown as Sunny.
Her photographs were hailed as irreplaceable classics in the contemporary art world, and this exhibition’s theme centered on her travel experiences over the past few years.
People pursuing art and those trying to curry favor with Elba Group rushed to buy tickets. Within just one day of sales, even tickets for the next six months were sold out.
“Aunt Sofia, did you really meet the chief of the indigenous tribe in Amaron?”
“Of course! Look, this is the chief’s clay plate.” Sofia stopped with Gwen in front of a photo.
However, as Gwen lowered her gaze, she caught sight of Jake and Sienna in the distance.
Jake stood tall among the crowd, his gaze cold and serious. He exuded a strong presence and appeared incredibly distinguished in the eyes of others.
Sienna’s belly was already starting to show. Dressed in a Chanel outfit, her careful movements to protect her belly made Gwen feel a bit uncomfortable.
The smile that had been on her face abruptly vanished, and a chill crept into her expression. This couple was everywhere.
