Chapter 391
Sophia Roscente immediately sat back down beside her, well-behaved.
She playfully winked at Anna Ross.
Anna couldn't help but chuckle softly.
Sophia was like a little princess from a fairy tale.
She was always carefree and protected.
Cecilia Roscente studied Anna's slightly pale face.
She sighed with heartache. "Anna, Adrian he..."
Sophia had already told her everything.
Anna probably knew it all.
But Cecilia didn't know what she was thinking now.
Anna guessed what she wanted to ask.
But she didn't want to talk about Adrian Sinclair right now.
She changed the subject. "Is Sophia starting school soon?"
"When exactly are you leaving? I want to see you off."
Sophia's eyes immediately lit up.
She happily grabbed Anna's hand. "In one week!"
"You're really coming to see me off, sis?"
"Of course. I'll definitely be there." Anna gently patted her hand.
She secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The topic was finally diverted.
Once school was mentioned, Sophia chattered excitedly.
Cecilia couldn't get a word in.
She had no choice but to listen quietly.
Later, she joined the conversation too.
The three of them chatted from the bright afternoon sun until the dusk glow faded.
On the other side.
Chloe Valentine threw herself into her mother's arms.
She cried like a delicate flower drenched in rain. "Mom, I hate Anna Ross!"
Mrs. Valentine saw her precious daughter wronged.
She instantly burned with anger.
But she suppressed her emotions first.
Comforting her daughter was more important.
She helped Chloe up.
She gently wiped away her tear stains with a tissue. "Don't cry, Chloe."
"Your father and I have your back."
She couldn't bear to lay a finger on her daughter since childhood.
How could she tolerate her being wronged like this outside?
Chloe sobbed. "Mom, that bitch Anna Ross seduces Adrian all day long!"
"She even ruined our engagement party!"
That night should have been her happiest moment.
Her family came on purpose.
All her friends and relatives were there.
Everything was ruined by Anna.
She hated her.
She wished she were dead!
Mrs. Valentine understood her daughter's feelings.
The more she understood, the more her heart ached.
She was there that night too.
Adrian suddenly said he had urgent business and left before the ceremony.
He never returned.
She thought it was some important matter.
Turns out it was for a woman!
"Sweetie, I know you're sad."
"Tell me, do you still want to marry Adrian Sinclair?" She gently stroked her daughter's hair.
Her eyes were soft.
Chloe was stunned.
Then she said firmly, "Of course I do!"
"This is what I've always dreamed of!"
How could she not want to marry him?
Even if she died, she would persist to the end.
Otherwise, how would her friends mock her?
Mrs. Valentine sighed.
She originally thought if her daughter didn't like him anymore, she would出面 withdraw from the engagement.
But since her daughter insisted, they would have to take matters into their own hands.
Chloe didn't understand. "Mom, why did you ask that?"
"Do you also think I'm not good enough for Adrian?"
