“Ms. Allison, let me pour the wine for you," said Sophian excitedly. The negative feelings from being ignored by Luke turned into excitement.

She took the bottle of red wine from Allison and poured wine into the three wine glasses.

Luke frowned when he saw the dark red color liquid flowing into the glass.

Then, he turned to look at Allison.

Allison had already picked up the glass and was ready to make a toast with him. "Son, cheers. It's been a long time since I had dinner with you. Stop turning me down."

Luke had no choice but to pick up his wine glass and toast with her.

Allison took a sip of the red wine and noticed that Luke had not drunk any of it. Then, she convinced him, "Luke, why aren't you drinking it?"

Luke had no choice but to take a sip of the wine.

Allison smiled and said, "What's wrong with you lately? You only took a small sip of the wine. I knew I did many things that made you hate me back then, but I truly want to patch things up with you now. It wasn't easy for me to raise you and survive in the Crawford family. You should be understanding and forgive me. It was my first time becoming a mother too. Let me raise my glass as an apology for everything I've done wrong in the past. I hope you can stay healthy and happy for the rest of your life."

Allison pretended to drink the wine in her glass, showing remorse and regret.

Sophian could not help but be impressed with her.

Allison did not even feel sorry at all. After spending time with her for some time, Sophian knew Allison only remembered everything the others had done to her.

It was impressive for her to be able to express regret even though she did not truly feel that way...

Sophian looked at the wine in Luke's glass. She had taken a few sips of the wine too, and she could not help but secretly hope that Luke could drink more of it..

Allison noticed that Luke was frowning and did not intend to drink the wine. She wondered if she had made a big deal out of it that Luke now refused to believe in her.

She pretended to be in distress and said, "Luke, I'm going to Seoul after the New Year for the surgery. If I'm lucky enough, I can come back with my face recovered. I'll appreciate the chance given to me this time. I promise to become a good mother and a nice grandmother. If it fails."

Allison hesitated.

deliberately shook her head and turned to look at Luke. "I've said so many things. Why can't you forgive me? I made many mistakes in the past, but I need a chance to make things up to you.
