Chapter 446 Growing Feelings

Sophia curled her lips slightly before taking out the chips from her basket and placing them in front of her.

Claudius followed suit. When Silas saw that, he smiled but did not say anything.

"It seems like Mr. Xenos and Ms. Yarrow are still as close as before."

Sophia peeked at her hole cards and replied with a placid smile, "Thanks for your concern, Mr. Cadogan."

Ignoring the man, Claudius tapped his fingers on the table to communicate the intentions of his next move to the dealer.

Silas proceeded to change the topic, discussing other business matters, while Sophia continued entertaining him by giving half-hearted replies.

At times, he tried to direct the conversation to Claudius, but Claudius would simply reply with one-word answers.

Whenever Silas asked a question, Claudius would not answer if Sophia had answered it first, and vice versa.

Seeing how stubborn the two of them were, Silas stopped talking after a while, as there was no point carrying on.

A few rounds later, Silas started to get bored and excused himself after taking a call.

"Let's catch up again soon. Please remember to send me a wedding invite when the two of you are getting married."

Still holding her cards, Sophia flashed a half-smile while lowering her head.

When Claudius heard that, his eyebrows twitched. Then, he replied with the longest sentence he had spoken that day. "Don't worry, Mr. Cadogan. We will definitely be delivering the invitation to you personally."

Silas nodded and took another glance at Sophia before walking out of the private room.

Once the man left the room, the smile on his face vanished.

He turned toward his assistant and instructed, "Find out what Alexander has been up to in the past six months."

As Alexander had been missing in Chanaea for half a year, Silas found it strange that the man had suddenly appeared in Lightspring. He was certain that there was more than met the eye.
