Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

Chapter 1820

It was pretty obvious to me that my mom, who wasn't exactly a pro at handling babies, jumped at the chance to go on a business trip with my dad, leaving little Sophie for me to look after.

I glanced at Sophie, snug in my arms, her bright, innocent eyes locked onto mine, totally clueless about everything else around her. Maybe... this wasn't so bad after

One day, I was chilling by the bay window with a book, when I noticed that Sophie had somehow climbed out of her cradle and was giving me the cutest, most intense stare.

"Are you hungry?" I asked.

Sophie tried to respond but only managed some adorable baby gibberish.

Putting my book down, I was about to mix up the formula the nanny had kindly prepped earlier, when I heard Sophie's tiny voice squeak out, "Bwother!"

Those two syllables seemed like they took all the effort in the world for her to say. I stopped in my tracks, a bit unsure, and asked, "Sophie, what did you just say?" "Bwother!" she repeated, this time with more confidence, her little eyes all serious.
