Edward was pleased as he watched them interact. On the other hand, Sophie had turned to look at Benson expectantly.

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNot only was Sophie forced to watch her former love rival flaunt her relationship in her face, but she had to endure her husband's indifference toward her, all on the first day of the New Year.
As a result, her heart was filled with grievance and resentment. However, she did not dare to make a scene, seeing there were too many people around.
Hence, she could only clutch her belly and said snidely, "Uncle Theo has handed all of his money to Aunt Sierra. "Anyone who didn't know any better would have thought that the two of them had already been together for such a long time." Everyone present knew that Sierra had been Benson's girlfriend stago.
