S31 12. Approach Frank

“What can you do?” Frank tilted his head.

“I can persuade Grandma slowly, but I need your cooperation.” Sophia nodded.

“What do you want us to do?”

“I can persuade Grandma to talk to you privately. While waiting for approval, can you ask Kara not to provoke Grandma?”

Frank laughed dryly. “What do you mean by not to provoke? Do you think my wife is a catfight?”

“That’s not what I mean. I just-”

“Hi, Sophia. You’re here?”

Sophia turned her head. Kara turned out to be walking towards them. Frank immediately greeted her with a bright smile.

“Hello, Queen Bee.”

“You really called me that?” Kara whispered as she pinched Frank’s

stomach.

The man laughed briefly. “Isn’t that our agreement?”

Kara narrowed her eyes before turning to Sophia. “So, what were you guys talking about?”

“Sophia said she wanted to help.”

“Yes, I don’t like seeing you guys working while I’m relaxing,” the woman interrupted, gracefully.

Frank was stunned. He was curious why Sophia stopped explaining.
