Sophia initially attempted to address Carmen’s father, but Cooper interrupted,”Darling, didn’t you say that you wanted to watch the commotion? We are going to the hospital after that.”
She then turned to the other direction and headed to Villa No. 6 to watch the buzz.
Upon looking at her back view, Michael noticed the scars on her hand that were hidden under her sleeve. His mind went blank as he immersed himself in great joy and sorrow. The leashes in his hands were released again, allowing the two large dogs to gladly run toward her. Even the dogs know that their mother has returned. Why didn’t I realize it? What exactly has happened in the past three years?
“Uncle, uncle…” It was only when Stanley came over to give Michael a shake did the latter snap out of his reverie. He then realized that Sophia had gone to watch the show.
As he looked at the figure standing among the crowd while watching the commotion, his world had turned upside down—deep within his heart.
“Stan, take Carmen home first.”
Upon hearing Michael’s words, Stanley took Carmen home with Sean before returning to watch the show.
Sophia, who was standing among the crowd and focusing on the buzz of the group of people, suddenly seemed to hear that someone was calling her. “Sophia—”
With that feeling in mind, she subconsciously turned, but nobody was calling her. Only Carmen’s father was standing not far behind her.
In a state of puzzlement, she turned to continue watching the commotion.
What she did not notice was the trace of inconspicuous shiver lasting only for a split second that the man with white hair had at the moment she subconsciously looked behind.
Chica, have you returned? Why don’t you recognize me? Why… didn’t you come home?
After Stanley sent Carmen home, he even locked Judge inside so that she could play with him at home.
Upon seeing Michael standing among the crowd and spacing out, Stanley secretly pointed at the person next to Cooper before uttering, “Uncle, look over there—that person is called Lucile. She’s Cooper’s daughter and my aunt’s younger sister. She does look like Sophia from behind! Uncle Cooper said that Lucile’s face was injured, so she has undergone plastic surgery in Xavion Cosmetic Hospital and will have the bandage removed today.”
Michael did not budge as he gazed intently at the figure.
The show among the crowd was nearing the climax.
Upon seeing Sam’s appearance, the West and Edwards Families kneeled around him, as if they saw their savior.
“Master Sam, please save us! Our family is going to fall apart if you don’t save us!” The words were from Victoria’s father.
A lot of things happened in the minor Edwards Family in these two weeks. They went bankrupt, their debtors showed up at their doors, and they had a related department conducting investigations on them—the same of which had happened to the West Family. They could not leave, had their lives thrown into chaos, and were unable to die.
“9th Old Master, someone is targeting the Edwards Family. When they knew that I’m from the Edwards Family, they framed us and threw us in such a desperate situation. Their next target would definitely be the entire Edwards Family! Master Sam, you have to save us!”
Peter chimed in as well. “Master Sam, we are all relatives. You can’t just let us die!”
