“Maybe he is out of his mind,” Sophia chuckled and said. When it came to the afternoon, Sophia permitted Robin to leave work earlier, cleaning her shop, whereupon she proceeded to close the door. Then, she went home to take a shower and get changed shortly before the Blackwell Family’s driver arrived.
