Sitting in the big living room for the whole morning, Sophia didn't know what to do. There were all kinds
of news on TV, but she was staring at the paintings on the wall in front of her and lost in thought.
"It's time for lunch, Miss Sophia."
Zelda shouted as she brought out the hot food from the kitchen.
Sophia didn't make any response, so Zelda ran to her in a hurry, "Miss Sophia, it's time for dinner!"
At this time, Sophia got better, and she looked at Zelda with a blank expression.
"Miss Sophia, dinner is ready. I called you at the dining room for a long time just now, but you didn't
respond. I was worried about you, so I came to see. "
Zelda smiled and said gently.
"Okay, let's eat." Then Sophia went to the dining room with Zelda.
Sophia was a bit surprised. There were all her favorite dishes on the table. But they were without too
much oil. Obviously, Zelda wanted to feed her to the fullest.
"Miss Sophia, this is the porridge with preserved egg and pork. I put some medlars in it. It makes you
nutritious... These dishes are light but they are good for your health. I am afraid that you don't like
them, so I prepared some other dishes. Mr. Victor asked me to pay more attention to your diet as you
are not feeling well... "
Zelda carefully told Sophia about the dishes she had prepared for the day. When she talked about
Victor, Zelda's voice became softer.
Zelda's words touched Sophia's heart. When she got the exact answer, Sophia fell into deep thought.
Now Sophia couldn't get rid of her complicated mind. She didn't know how to face this man who made
her perplexed.
In fact, Sophia didn't have appetite for both physical and mental reason today. But when she saw that a
full table of dishes was prepared for her, she still picked up the chopsticks and began to eat.
Having tasted the first mouthful, Sophia had a big appetite.
As expected, Zelda had put a lot of energy in preparing food for Sophia.
Although these dishes looked light, they all met Sophia's tastes when eating.
Before long, she ate up all the delicious food on the table.
It seemed that the tense stomach and intestines relaxed, which made Sophia not in a bad mood as
before.
Sitting in the yard, Sophia looked tired and dispirited.
She held her head and began to think about what had happened these days, trying to sorted out
everything one by one.
However, she didn't find anything that could make her laugh for the past few days.
So, Sophia frowned and pushed the soil under her feet wearily.
Zelda and Zelda were really worried about Sophia. They strode forward and began to chat with Sophia.
"Miss Sophia, why are you so tired today. If you don't mind, you can tell us."
Web proposed.
Web looked at Sophia worriedly, which made Sophia feel warm.
Zelda also added tenderly, "yes, Miss Sophia, you can just tell us. As long as you don't mind us..."
Sophia liked these two elders very much.
Although Sophia just came to Xiao family for a short time, she could feel that the two old men in front of
her treated her sincerely and took good care of her whenever she was in need.
"Nothing. Maybe I'm just too busy with my work recently."
Said Sophia with a smile, holding Zelda's hand.
"Miss Sophia, you must be very busy working in Mr. Victor's company."
Sophia didn't say anything. She just nodded.
"Mr. Victor is always strict with his work and is strict with the staff. He treat the staff equally no matter
who they are. I'm sure that you must have suffered a lot when you work for him."
Web said after thinking for a while.
"Mr. Victor, he is a competent and competent boss."
Sophia said this when she thought of the things Victor had to deal with in the company.
"Yes, it is said that Mr. Victor is a business genius! Is it because he is so young that he has picked up
the burden of the YS Group. The outsiders are waiting to laugh at him. Sir slapped them hard with his
real action! "
Web spoke in detail. Looking at his serious expression, Sophia couldn't help but laugh.
"Yes, you are right. Mr. Victor is not an ineloquent man. He carried the whole group without saying a
word and is under a lot of pressure. But he has never mentioned this to anyone else..."
Zelda echoed.
Apparently, both of the old were deeply favored by Xiao family. They were full of praise when talking
about their young master.
Putting aside her own feelings, Sophia had to admit that what the two old people said was true.
"By the way, Miss Sophia, you're the only woman that Mr. Victor took home."
Zelda suddenly changed the topic and talked about the young woman in front of her.
Web also said, "yes. I've never seen Mr. Victor have any relationship with any other women. But he has
a different attitude towards you."
Hearing this, Sophia felt bitter in their heart. She smiled bitterly and said, "Zelda, Web, I have a
complicated relationship with him. It's not what you think..."
"Miss Sophia, don't think so. Mr. Victor doesn't like to show his true feelings to you, but that doesn't
mean he has no feelings for you."
Zelda explained anxiously.
"Look, you are not feeling well this morning, sir has always told me to take good care of you..."
"Who knows? Maybe he already has a fiancee. He just gave you an order on impulse. He doesn't care
about me..."
Sophia couldn't help but feel sad when she thought of the conversation between Victor and Jay.
"Fiancee?"
"Ah, speaking of fiancee, there is one. However, this is the marriage that Mr. Victor's mother wishfully
agreed to marry, and Mr. Victor is strongly against it. Otherwise, this will not be known to only a small
number of people. "
"Besides, Mr. Victor doesn't allow anyone to mention his fiancee!"
Sophia was a little surprising. She knew that Victor had a fiancee, but she didn't expect that there was
such a thing.
Zelda tried to comfort Sophia, "we all know about this thing, but no one will take it seriously, because
they won't be together."
Web also echoed, "Mr. Victor wants to get along with you seriously. He didn't say anything, but
everything he did proves that..."
Sophia felt much better after hearing what the two old men said.
"Miss, if you are unhappy about something, don't hold it in your heart. You should tell us. Even if you
don't want to tell Mr. Victor, you can tell Web and me. Although we don't have much help, we can give
you some advice.
You know, bad things always happen if you keep things bottled up.
Web and I have experienced the same thing before..."
Zelda said kindly.
The wrinkles on their faces made Sophia feel warm and happy when they smiled.
It reminded her of her grandparents whom she had never met.
Sophia's grandparents passed away long ago, and then she was brought to this family, and after that,
her mother also passed away. Since childhood, the only thing that Sophia could remember was that
she lived under other's roof and didn't get any protection.
Therefore, when she saw Zelda and Web's genuine concern for her, Sophia felt very close to them.
"All right. Zelda and Web, thank you. I would adjust my emotion and made you so worried. But I'm
much better now, totally fine... "
Sophia disguised her current status by waving and dancing, and said breezily. She didn't want to bother
the two old men any more.
Sophia made the two old people feel relieved.
"I'm glad to hear that. You didn't know how bad you looked in the morning. You would always look
worried without anyone around you..."
Zelda smiled with relief. Web nodded aside.
Sophia suddenly filled a little guilty. They had been worrying about her, but at the same time, she was
also moved by the fact that she was missed by them.
As for the contract with Victor, even if he didn't have a fiancee, they would go separate ways at the
appointed time.
What she should do now was to cherish the time in front of her and focus on her work at hand!
Sophia felt a little regretful, but after weighing the pros and cons, she was much more relieved.
Suddenly a gust of wind blew over, messing up her messy hair. Sophia combed her hair and found that
the weather was actually very good today.
"Miss Sophia, you have stayed here for the whole afternoon. It's windy outside. Let's go inside. You are
so weak now. I'm afraid that you might get cold again. "
Zelda looked at the leaves in the corner of the yard. They were circling in the air, made by the wind.
Sophia nodded, and was about to stand up.
Since she had sat here for a long time and was in low spirit, she felt a little dizzy and almost fell down.
Luckily, Web had a pair of sharp eyes and agile hands. He grabbed Sophia.
The two elders looked nervously at the feeble Sophia. She waved her hands, indicating that they didn't
need to worry about her
At last, Web and Zelda cautiously got Sophia to her room.
"Miss Sophia, please take a good rest. It's good for you to recuperate and adjust your mood. I'll cook a
pot of white fungus soup for you. "
Sophia didn't reject, and she indeed needed a good rest. She was too tired these days.
As long as she was free, nothing would hurt her. Thinking of this, she closed her heavy eyelids.
Zelda closed the door quietly. All of a sudden, the room was dark and it was very quiet.
