If they had known what was going on, they would’ve gone to pick up Stephanie by now so she wouldn’t have to deal with all the trouble from the Hart family.

Compared to the risks they’d faced before, the Hart family’s tricks were nothing.

Even though things weren’t fully sorted out, once Stephanie used the black card Sebastian gave her, they couldn’t help but worry. They couldn’t let her stay in Long Harbor by herself anymore.

“No matter what, let’s eat first. We’ll talk later,” Lottie said, placing a piece of meat in Stephanie’s bowl.

Stephanie used to really like beef bourguignon. But since moving to Long Harbor, the way they made it there wasn’t quite the same, so she stopped eating it as much.

Right now, Lottie’s kindness made Stephanie feel at ease, and she started eating.

Just then, Sofia stormed in, muttering angrily. “Those bastards from the Vitale family… I’m gonna make them pay double. Luca and Macro? Ugh, they’re nothing but trash.”

“And Richard, that jerk… I’ll deal with him sooner or later. He’ll regret it,” Sofia said, seething.

Stephanie and Sebastian froze, completely shocked by her outburst.

Lottie heard Sofia’s angry rant, and she couldn’t help but frown.

‘Oh, my God. My dear daughter… why do you talk like this? I’ve told you a thousand times. Stop cursing! You can’t just go around saying stuff like that. I can’t even tell who you take after with that temper,’ she thought.

Turning around, she saw Sofia coming in from the hallway. “Alright, enough with the swearing. Don’t you think you should act a little more like a lady?”

Lottie was seriously frustrated with Sofia. She’d raised both Sofia and Stephanie the same way, but Sofia had always been rough and tomboyish.

She never wore the cute dresses Lottie bought for her. The high heels, jewelry, and handbags–everything custom–made- were all completely ignored.

Lottie thought Stefi was better. A young girl should look like a princess, dressed up in pink and cute clothes.

Sofia saw them eating, and though she was still mad, she walked over and sat down at the table.

She replied to Lottie while still fuming, “What’s the point of being ladylike? We’ve got Stefi to be the cute little princess of this family.”

Stephanie just stared at her, speechless.

Lottie sighed, rubbing her temples. “Let’s see who’s gonna marry you then.”

The words hit Sofia harder than Lottie realized. She froze for a second, gripping her fork tightly. A sharp pain stabbed in her chest.

“Yeah, nobody wants me, huh? Fine, I won’t get married. But if I’m still unmarried, and Stefi still gets pushed around, who’s gonna protect her when I’m gone?”
