S31 7. Special Guest

“Wow, it turns out the inn is crowded today?” Sophia stepped onto the porch. When her eyes caught Frank’s face, her eyebrows arched

upwards.

“Frank Harper?” Her forefinger was pointed forward. Her mouth was kept open.

Frank smiled formally. “Long time no see, Mrs. Miller. What a surprise we could meet again. You came with Finnic?”

Diana’s expression suddenly stiffened, while Abigail stared wide-eyed. However, none of them made a sound.

“About that,” Sophia let out an awkward laugh. She tucked her hair behind her ear. “We did keep it a secret from the public. I’m not Mrs. Miller anymore. Call me Miss Moore”

Frank flinched. “You guys … aren’t together anymore?”

Sophia nodded with her chin bent. “Yeah, I know. We’ve only been together a few months. But what can we do?”

She shrugged her shoulders. “It turned out that we weren’t compatible. Moreover, his company was facing big challenges recently. His focus was divided. For him, saving the company was more important than saving our marriage.”

Frank froze a little longer. He realized that his revenge was what made the Miller Corporation fall and it was impossible for Sophia not to know.

“I sympathize with you.”

Sophia waved her hand in a graceful manner. Her laughter sounded polite.

“It’s okay. I’m actually grateful to be free from a toxic relationship. Being alone is much better than being with the wrong person.”

However, Diana still looked at Sophia with pity. While patting the thin hand she was holding, she diverted the conversation.

“Honey, you must be tired after the long journey. You should rest immediately. Abi, prepare a room for our special guest.”

Abigail gasped. Her finger slowly straightened to the side of her head. “Grandma, all the rooms in our inn have been rented. There are no

more available.”

Diana immediately frowned. “I don’t need any reason. Sophia is our main priority. Give her a room.”
