“Maybe he is out of his mind,” Sophia chuckled and said. When it came to the afternoon, Sophia permitted Robin to leave work earlier, cleaning her shop, whereupon she
proceeded to close the door. Then, she went home to take a shower and get changed shortly before the Blackwell Family’s driver arrived. Upon getting into the car, she saw
someone sitting inside who turned out to be a young lady.
Sophia paused and nodded. “Hi.”
The lady gazed at Sophia with a smile. “Hi, my grandma sent me to pick you up. Let’s go.”
Sophia responded with an affirmative hum, feeling a little nervous upon hearing that. After she sat tight, the car began to hit the road. At the same time, the lady appeared to
be rather talkative as she was able to lighten up the atmosphere with different topics, chatting with Sophia about her shop and even her marriage life.
Grinning, the lady replied, “Actually, we all know that you just had a divorce with John not long ago, except my grandma.”
“I know. That’s why I was a little awkward when she asked me about that,” Sophia answered with a chuckle.
Hearing her reply, the lady nodded. “I understand how sensitive and upsetting this topic can be, so we didn’t bring it up to my grandma.” In fact, the more important matter
was that Old Mrs. Blackwell didn’t state her preference about who should take Sophia in, which was why none of them said a word about Sophia’s divorce. After all, they were
raised in a prestigious family, in which they were taught to be discreet with their words. While both ladies were happily chatting with each other, they soon arrived at the
Blackwell Residence.

The Blackwell Residence is a huge mansion situated in the middle of the city. They’re rich indeed. Just look at the space of this compound! Gosh! I wonder how much they
spent to buy a place this big. As the car stopped in the courtyard, someone was seen waiting there. Sophia then stepped out of the vehicle to be greeted by Old Mrs. Blackwell
with someone helping her walk toward their guest. At the sight of that, she quickly approached the old lady, who soon seized her hand. “Finally, you’re here. I’ve been waiting
long enough for you. Come, let’s get inside.”
Sophia smiled awkwardly to everyone aside while following behind Old Mrs. Blackwell. Then, they sat in the living room, whereupon the matriarch began introducing Sophia to
the family. In fact, everyone else had seen Sophia on Old Mrs. Blackwell’s birthday, although none of them had really talked to her. Meanwhile, Sophia forced a smile on her
face and greeted every family member even though she didn’t like to be on occasions like this.
After the introduction, Old Mrs. Blackwell sighed and said, “This poor little kid is all by herself without a family.” Upon hearing that, Sophia pursed her lips while the old lady
seized her hand and placed it on her own palm. “I like this girl a lot. After long deliberation, I’ve decided to make her my granddaughter.” Then, she turned her attention to
Sophia, who was in a trance, and asked, “What do you think, my girl?”
Sophia was taken aback by Old Mrs. Blackwell’s sudden announcement, staring at the old lady with her dilated eyes. “Madam Blackwell, I-I…”
At the same time, every other member of the Blackwell Family appeared to be rather calm and unsurprised, which implied that they had already known about it ahead.
Looking at Old Mrs. Blackwell’s smiling face, Sophia didn’t know what to say in order to turn her down. Well, I’m not sure if I’m going to get roughed up for turning down
Madam Blackwell’s ‘kind’ offer.
“Um, maybe…” Sophia hesitantly said, but Madam Blackwell soon interrupted her words with a smile and said, “Since you agree, I guess it’s decided then. Meanwhile, the rest
could decide which family she belongs to.”
Upon hearing the old lady’s words, the wife of the Main Constance Family said, “We don’t have a daughter, so she could be with us.”
Soon, the wife of the Third Constance Family chimed in, “We don’t have a daughter either, so we could take her in.”
What’s the Blackwell Family really up to? I’m broke, and everything I own now is given by John when we divorced, which I don’t think they’re interested in, so why does
everyone start to cozy up to me all of a sudden?
