Revenge is Best Served… After Reborn

Chapter 1824

"Mr. Gordon, what's been happening lately...?" Rick wasn't really the one to ask

this question. But over the past few days, Mr. Gordon had been keeping a noticeable distance from Ms. Sophie.

"Do you think I've been less attentive to her?" Gordon asked.

"Not exactly..." Rick couldn't quite put his finger on it. Mr. Gordon had always shown deep care for Ms. Sophie, but lately, it felt different somehow.

"Mr. Gordon, Ms. Sophie has always depended on you," Rick pointed out.

"You said it—depended," Gordon replied. He had no plans to force Sophie into anything, not even loving him. "I'll give her time to think, and if she doesn't want this engagement, I'll respect her wishes."
