Marcus shook his head. “I didn’t hear any conversation, but the slam of a door woke me up. Tristan,
too.”
Sophia remembered her father leaving. He had indeed slammed the door.
So, Marcus was awakened by the slamming door, not by the conversation she just had with her father.
She felt relieved.
She was worried that Marcus would overthink if he heard what they were talking about.
Sophia chuckled. “That’s just how my father is. He does everything with such gusto. Sorry if it startled
you and Tristan.”
Marcus nonchalantly shook his head. “It’s fine. Why didn’t you invite your father to stay for dinner?”
Sophia’s face flashed with a hint of unease as she thought about the unpleasant incident with her
father just now. “Oh, my dad said he had something to do, so he didn’t join us.”
Marcus gave her a nod, not pressing further. He didn’t really care if Thaddeus stayed for dinner or not;
he was just trying to dismiss Sophia’s suspicions. Sophia let out a small sigh of relief. “Marcus, why
don’t you and Tristan watch some TV while I finish up here.”
“Alright.”
Veronica hurriedly hopped out of the car driven by her chauffeur, and dashed into a dessert shop.
Moran had been waiting for her in the dessert shop for an hour already. He already refilled his coffee
twice over.
“Mo, Moran, I’m…I’m late again.” Veronica panted, barely managing an explanation before she even
sat down.
Moran looked up at the meticulously dressed Veronica and smiled. “It’s okay. Sit down and catch your
breath. I’ve ordered you a lemonade, and you can order whatever you want to eat.”
Veronica nodded and sat down. She sometimes felt a wave of remorse wash over her every time she
looked at Moran’s gentle face.
Morán was so steady. He was arguably the most emotionally stable person she had ever met. No
matter what happened, he never seemed to lose his
cool.
And then there was her, a woman who was constantly on edge and made mountains out of molehills.
“Here’s your lemonade. Have a few sips to cool down.”
Moran handed her the glass.
Veronica took the lemonade and sipped lightly. “Thanks, Moran. I always keep you waiting, and you
never get upset.”
Moran chuckled. “It takes time for a girl to get ready. Besides, didn’t you help Ellinor with the kids for a
bit? You didn’t do it on purpose.”
Veronica blushed. “How can there be such an understanding guy like you in this world? I don’t know
what I’ve done to deserve to be your girlfriend.”
Moran ruffled her hair. “Talking nonsense again? If it weren’t for the fact that I like you and you like me,
how could we be together? What do you mean ‘deserve’? You’re so adorable. I wonder what I’ve done
to deserve to be your boyfriend.”
Veronica blushed even harder. Her boyfriend was so sweet. It was hard not to fall for him.
Moran said indulgently, “Alright. Order anything else you want. After dessert, let’s catch a movie.
There’s a new thriller that’s been getting great reviews. I’ve got the tickets.”
Veronica nodded, picked up the menu, and added a few more of her favorite sweets
