her
The Stewarts raised for twenty years and now that she’s climbed the social ladder, she dares to give him attitude No wonder they could never being themselves to like Sophie Who could like someone so ungrateful
Even if the managed to hook up with Tristan for now, allowing her a moment of arrogance, how long does she think she cat stay by Tristan’s side with her current family background! In the world of the elite, Seeting affection is never enough to
Shereetable family background to hold onto Tristan for the long haul. What an ignorant, short–sighted brat, with no sive of the bigger picture
A hot of didam Based in Gritin’s eyes, but he still feigned the look of a loving father. “Sofi, are you blaming Daddy? I’ve been burning since you lef. But I couldn’t be so selfish as to deny you the right to return to your biological parents”
Bewed 7 though you would understand me”
As Grain spoke, he kept pancing at the luxury car
Suddenly, the door on the other side opened
Bathed in the golden sunlight, a tall and elegant man stood before him. His cool, hazel eyes, like ice mixed with snow, gazed lightly in their direction
He happened to lock eyes with Gritin, who was sneaking perks
Just one look
Griffin Selita chill spread through his heart, his limbs turning cold, his breath catching in his throat
He hastily avened his gar
Hambling lipn, which had been about to utter words to thow his deep affection for Sophia in front of Tristan, were suddenly stuck
Griffin couldn’t unter a single word
Soplice looked at Griffin’s frightened expression, and felt like laughing
Wasn’t Critin purting on this act, eagerly approaching just to get close to Tristan?
Now that he sees Tristan in person, why is he so scared
With such cowardice, he still dreams of expanding his ambitions
Boghi scotted mockingly, her gaze Bicking towards Tristan with a hint of boredom. “Let’s go.”

She lifted her hand, reached out, and grasped at air.
Oh, right, she’s wearing not her hoodie today, but a little dress without pockets.

happened.
The girl’s momentary embarrassment, her slightly puffed cheeks, and her deliberate poker face were all noticed by Tristan.
His eyes softened, a doting smile playing on the corner of his lips.
He took a step forward, following the girl.
The sunlight lengthened their shadows, intertwining them.
As if… intimately entwined.
This sight made Griffin’s pupils constrict, his facial muscles twitching.
His adopted daughter… had actually hooked up with Tristan and become his woman?
And it seemed Tristan was quite fond of her.
If he had known she had such an ability, how could he have allowed Felicity to drive Sophia away? After all, it was just a matter of adding one more place–setting
But their care could have been exchanged for Sophia’s gratitude, helping them get closer to Tristan!
Griffin was seething, consumed by regret.
He watched Sophia’s cold, uncaring back and, in a surge of desperation, started to chase after her.
The sharp click of heels echoed behind him.
Chloe, in a flowing white dress and flawless makeup, reached Griffin’s side. She glanced at Sophia’s retreating figure and raised her voice, “Sister, if anyone deserves your anger, it’s me! You shouldn’t treat Dad this way!”
Her voice, deliberately soft and laced with a practiced tremor, held a hint of a sob.
Her beautiful, tear–filled eyes reddened, making her look utterly pitiful.
“The Stewarts raised you for twenty years. Even if you’re not their biological daughter, their kindness is real. How can you deny twenty years of family just because… because you found a better life? We… we’re still your family!”
Chloe carefully chose her words, seemingly considerate of Sophia’s feelings.
But every syllable was an accusation.
She used her image of a filial daughter to highlight Sophia’s lack of gratitude.
Griffin, playing along, wore the expression of a helpless, loving father. “Soft, I know you resent me for agreeing to switch you and Chloe, for turning you from a rich heiress into a girl from the slums…
“It’s okay if you don’t forgive me. I just want you to know… No matter what, the Stewart family will always be your home. I’ll always be your father. If you ever get tired of the slums and want to come back, there’s always a place for you here.”
He spoke with such heartfelt emotion, his eyes brimming with tears, almost convincing himself.
But as he spoke, his gaze flickered towards Tristan, gauging his reaction.
The aloof, elegant man stood lazily beside Sophia, not even batting an eye.
As if he hadn’t heard a word.

Chapter 14
Griffin gritted his teeth, ready to double down and persevere.
He had to make Sophia soften, and he had to show Tristan his genuine fatherly affertion for Sopile
Griffin was about to continue his performance.
The girl, who had already walked a few steps away, tilted her head lightly. Her thick, wway hair, soft and volumin, revealed half of her stunning, cold profile.
Her eyes narrowed, a flicker of mocking disdain in their depths, and she let out a sdt, diminive butt
“If you’re trying to hook up with Tristan, just say so. Stop pretending
Her words were cool and cutting, laying bare their underlying motives,
It was directed at Griffur
And at Chloe.
A double entendre.
Their faces instantly darkened.
Sophia’s smile widened, and she shot a contemptuous glance at Griffin. “The home you speak of holds no appeal for me. From the day I changed my name to Sophia, I severed all ties with the Stewart family
That glance, full of scorn and contempt, seemed to pierce Griffin’s soul, exposing all his hidden, dark intentions
Sophia didn’t bother to look at them again, disappearing completely from their sight.
Griffin’s lips moved, his gaze fixed on the direction Sophia had vanished, his expression ugly
That little bitch!”
Felicity, seeing Griffin and her daughter abandoned, exploded in anger. That slut who sells her body, she really thinks the something! I told you she was an ungrateful wretch, completely heartless! Now that she’s finally stepped on us, she wants to crush us. And you still think she’ll help you?”
“Expecting help from an ungrateful wretch, better rely on our own daughter“”
