Chapter 734:

Elma grappled with the possible future repercussions—Calvin and the others might blame or harbor resentment toward her. Dread washed over her at the thought, pulling her into a sullen state.

Noticing Elma’s sadness, Sophie tried to lift her spirits.

Lifting Elma effortlessly, Sophie suggested, “It’s quicker if I carry you. Let’s zip through our shopping so we’re back before my mom gets home. She’s planning a feast of treats and games tonight. I’ll talk to her about having you over for a sleepover. It’ll be fun!”

Elma couldn’t muster a smile. Tears were almost falling. Sophie’s kindness only intensified her guilt for pulling off the stunt Cara had requested. She condemned herself as vile. On the verge of exiting through the back, Elma’s conscience fought to voice her remorse.

However, Sophie dashed ahead, unyielding. Setting Elma down, she eagerly asked, “Which way now? If it’s a long walk, we can ask the driver for a ride.”

Elma remained mute, staring at Sophie, her expression filled with turmoil.

At that moment, footsteps echoed from behind them.
