Barbara smiled brightly. "My granddaughter-in-law is the best."

Sophia, still holding the cotton candy, froze awkwardly. She slowly withdrew her hand and looked at Aveline. "Madam Barbara likes you very much."

Aveline replied calmly, "She just happens to find me pleasing."

Sophia smiled slightly, lowering her eyes with a hint of
