After sitting in the living room for a while, Victor instructed Charlotte to call Sophia down for dinner.

Sophia had been obediently staying in her room, thinking about her grandmother’s words and fantasizing about Olivia being her mother. She was filled with anticipation.

During dinner, she couldn’t help but ask, “Daddy, are you going to marry Miss?”

After asking, she looked at her father with hopeful eyes.

Since Sophia had returned, she had spoken to him a few times, but mostly in short sentences. This was the first time she had spoken so many words at once.

Victor was taken aback and then realized Sophia’s question. He thought about Sophia’s attitude towards Olivia all this time and felt something unusual in his heart. “Do you really like her?”

Sophia nodded naturally.

She liked Olivia the most!

Seeing Sophia’s excited expression when she mentioned Olivia, Victor furrowed his brow and asked, “What do you like about her?”

If you think about it, Sophia had only known Olivia for a short time, but she relied on her and was even closer to her than to him.

Victor could never figure out the reason, so he had always assumed it was the bond between mother and daughter.

Sophia hadn’t thought about this question before, but when she heard her father ask, she tilted her head and thought about it seriously for a while. This chapter is updated first at novelc⁠eo.com.

After a moment, Sophia counted on her fingers and answered earnestly, “She’s beautiful, kind, cooks delicious food, and she’s especially, especially nice to me…”

Listening to the little one’s answer, Victor’s mood became complicated, and he pursued further, “But she also comes with two little boys. Do you want them to come to our house too?”

The existence of those two children was still a thorn in Victor’s heart.

Although those two children were well-behaved, and he liked them too, the thought of their father heartlessly abandoning them and their mother made him uncomfortable.

Sophia, on the other hand, looked innocent, her eyes sparkling. “They’re really nice to me, and I like them too!”

She liked Olivia and the two little boys!

After saying that, she thought of her initial question and looked at her father with anticipation. “So, Daddy, will you marry Olivia? I want Olivia to be my mommy!”

Otherwise, why would Daddy ask her so many questions about Olivia?

Thinking this way, Sophia’s anticipation grew even stronger, convinced that Olivia would definitely be her mommy!

However, her father hadn’t answered for such a long time. Read the latest chapters at novelceo dot com.

Sophia looked puzzled, and her anticipation diminished inexplicably. She urged cautiously, “Daddy?”

Victor came back to his senses, his gaze slightly dim. He avoided Sophia’s expectant gaze and said, “No.”

At least, not for now.

Sophia stubbornly furrowed her brow, thinking about what her grandmother had just said. “But Grandma said…” She was about to mention that Daddy wanted to marry Olivia.

Before she could finish her sentence, Victor interrupted in a deep voice.

“It’s just a misunderstanding.” Victor didn’t want to continue this topic and served Sophia a bite of food. “Let’s eat. Finish your meal and rest early.”

Sophia had excitedly said so much, thinking that Daddy would let Olivia be her mommy.

Now, upon hearing her father’s answer, she felt deeply disappointed. She lowered her gaze, lost her appetite, reluctantly finished the food in her bowl, and silently returned to her room, without saying a word.

Seeing Sophia’s despondent figure, Victor furrowed his brow and decided not to say anything more.
