Lucas frowned and hung up the phone, then walked out.

In the garden, Sophia had already approached Barbara. She held out a cotton candy shaped like a kitten. "Madam Barbara, look at this cute little kitten."

Barbara's eyes lit up when she saw the cotton candy, but she didn't take it. Instead, she tugged on Aveline's hand.

"Granddaughter-in-law, you get me cotton candy. I don't like kittens; I like bunnies."

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
