S31 9. Irreplaceable

“Yeah, if that’s your reason, I can understand.”

Kara nodded, but her expression was stiff. Sophia was having

difficulty guessing what’s in her heart. She couldn’t continue the ” attack” if Kara’s reaction was flat.

“Since Grandma isn’t here, may I continue my work? I think the sauce can be poured.”

Sophia blinked. “Yes, of course.” She raised the corners of her lips.

“Thank you.”

Kara went to get the sauce from the stove. At that moment, Frank muttered, “My wife is indeed kind and patient. She doesn’t give in because she is weak, but she knows what is best for everyone, even if

she has to accept slander.”

The air in Sophia’s lungs became heavier. However, as best as possible, she regulated her breathing rhythm so that it remained

normal.

“Yes, Kara is very kind. You must be grateful to have a wife like her.”

“She is irreplaceable.”

Without waiting for another reply, Frank put his arm around Kara’s waist again. Over her shoulder, he watched how she poured the sauce.

“Grandma will be sorry for underestimating you,” Frank whispered, making Kara chuckle.

“Don’t say that, Frank. Grandma just misunderstood.”

Sophia was sick of hearing Kara’s soft voice. She wanted her to be angry and hurt. However, why was her own heart getting hot?

“If she sits there, then where will Mommy sit?” Louis continued with a more serious expression.
