Chapter 451

Sophia totally brushed off his grumpiness.

She didn't swing by today to ruffle Daniel's feathers - she wouldn't be able to handle the guilt if she ticked him off to death. The only reason she checked up on his health was because it was going to set the stage for their chat.

Seeing Sophia stay mum, Daniel couldn't help but sneak another peek at her, yet there wasn't a trace of anger or hurt on her face.

All she did was calmly grab a chair, take a seat, and turn to him, "If you're feeling up to it, let's talk. If not, we can always catch up another day. You should rest up."

Her voice was gentle, smooth, and soothing, lacking the fiery comeback he had braced for.

This chilled-out Sophia threw Daniel for a loop, leaving him with a belly full of gripes he couldn't vent. He glared at her for a good while before finally turning his face away with a huff, "I'm fine; let's talk."

"Alright then."

Sophia cut straight to the chase, no beating around the bush, "You called me here 'cause you want me to leave Brandon, right?"

Her voice remained soft and serene. Daniel gave her a look but said nothing.
