At Harold’s birthday party, the quest list was crammed with the scions of wealthy families, all of whom had their eyes fixed on Sophie

that James new bride? So Harold has been waiting for her

heard James and she are on the rocks, he’s got a mistress, and they’re likely heading for divorce

“Could it be that Mr. Harold has taken a fancy to her? What is Harold thinking?”

Murmurs rippled quietly throughout the room Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Harold, spotting Sophie, was delighted and seemed oblivious to the whispers. He quickly ascended the stairs and gallantly offered his hand to her “My lady, if you please”

Sophie chuckle at Harold’s childish gesture. As she reached out her hand, the grand doors of the Aldridge estate burst open, and a row of men in black suits entered, forming two lines Colt strode through them towards the gathering

Harold turned around, his brow furrowing at the sight. “Who let you in?” He stepped in front of Sophie, shielding her

The guests fell silent, recognizing Colt, the notorious right–hand man of James. This was sure to stir up drama

“My apologies, Mr. Harold, but Mr. Burke has sent me to bring his wife home,” Colt stated, looking towards Sophie. “Ma’am, Mr. Burke is quite concerned about you. Please, come with us”

“And if I refuse?”

After a moment of silence, Colt replied, “That would be unfortunate.”

As his bodyguards stepped forward, Harold stood protectively in front of Sophie. “Don’t worry. I’ve got you.”

Sophie wasn’t scared. Even if Colt really wanted to take her away, he wouldn’t dare cause trouble at the Aldridge estate.

“Maam, I had no choice. I was stopped outside by the Aldridge estate’s security. I must fulfill Mr. Burke’s orders.”

“1 understand it’s not your fault. Here’s what we’ll do: let your men wait here until after we’ve cut Mr. Harold’s birthday cake, then I’ll come with you”

“Sophie!” Urgency colored Harold’s voice. “If you don’t want to go back-”

“Shh” Sophie lowered her voice. I can handle it. Let’s keep today festive and avoid any strife.”

She always avoided causing trouble for others. At the last Aldridge jewelry gala, the Aldridge family had already clashed with James over her. She couldn’t burden them again.

he cake was served, Sophie presented Harold with a gift she’d prepared in advance. “Happy birthday, Harold. I wish you a life filled joy and laughter every day”

Harold stared at the gift Sophie had prepared, his words caught in his throat.

Colt interjected, “Ma’am, shall we go now?”

The back tomorrow night Soplae assured her

Then, I want for you at home”
