Chapter 337 Tense

At the sight of Benson's change in attitude, Sophie's eyes flickered. She reached out and gently touched her stomach, thinking, "As long as you're born safely, this entire Gray family will be yours."

"Grandpa, Uncle Theo." Benson greeted everyone at the table one by one. However, when he got to Sierra, he hesitated for a long time, unable to bring himself to greet her formally.

His voice carried deep emotion as he greeted, "Cee."

The atmosphere shifted instantly. Those present exchanged subtle glances, their expressions changing slightly.

Sierra could feel their gazes and cursed Benson deep down for his lack of restraint.

Just then, Theo took her hand, and the two of them stood up together. He pulled out an envelope from his pocket and handed it over. "This is a token of your Aunt Sierra's goodwill. Take it."

Benson stared at the envelope with a complicated expression.

Sophie reached out and accepted it without hesitation. "Thank you, Uncle Theo, Aunt Sierra."

Finally, Edward smiled. "Alright, now toast the other elders properly."

She tugged at Benson's arm to pull him away-though his reluctant gaze lingered on Sierra.
