They left her to her own devices in Horington when she was a kid, and there was no one who could take care of her.Josiah squeezed her hands.“Sophie, I wasn’t here five years ago and had no idea what happened. Now that I’m back, no one will dare to bully you,” he promised.“Thanks, Grandpa.” He was the only one who trusted her wholeheartedly in the family.“There’s no need to thank me. Morgan, go clean Ms. Sophie’s room now.” Josiah was in a jovial mood after seeing Sophie. “Charmaine, you’ll have to enroll Sophie into a school tomorrow,” he ordered.“Dad, Sophie was expelled by her school five years ago.
