Chapter 892

"Mrs. Costello, Mr. Odie said he recently broke off his engagement with the Pollard family because of financial troubles, so we'll have to settle for a simpler meal tonight."

Sophie couldn't help but laugh when she saw the bowl of egg soup in front of her.

Even if the Minton family was down to their last penny, they wouldn't just serve her a pot of boiling water.

This had to be one of Odie's ridiculous ideas.

"Tell Odie I appreciate the gesture, but I'll pass on the soup."

Sophie walked out of the bedroom, headed downstairs.

The maid tried to follow, but Sophie was too quick.

Odie, who was eating in the living room, saw Sophie walk past him and then heard her call out, "Lucky! Soup's for you!"

The big black dog at the door sniffed the bowl of soup Sophie placed on the ground, then silently backed away.
