Chapter 1570

Reluctantly, Adrian had no choice but to heed his dad’s words. Looking sheepishly, he muttered an apology to Sophia.

Sophia, basking in the attention from her man, didn’t hold a grudge against the boy. Putting on her kindly demeanor, she responded, “It’s alright. Mommy wasn’t really mad at you. Just remember not to talk to me like that again, okay?”

Adrian, pressured by his dad to apologize, wasn’t sincere. He turned away, refusing to look at Sophia.

“It’s because I’ve been too lenient with him that he’s turned out this way. Go on with your chores; I’ll have a word with him.”

Sophia, feeling secretly pleased, nodded. “Alright then. You have a talk with Adrian. I’ll go start dinner.”
