Sophie quickly snapped out of her reverie, touched her flushed cheeks, and said, "I might be coming down with a cold." "You shouldn't take a cold lightly. I'll have Colby take you to the clinic later." Jenna, standing by, was itching to create an opportunity for the two to be alone.

Adler chuckled as he peeled an apple for Jenna. Jenna gave Adler a look, signaling him to stop interfering, and Adler immediately fell silent Sophie stared at the neatly cut pieces of apple on her plate, lost in thought She had lost her parents at a young age, and she was raised in her uncle's house. Although they were family, they were not her biological parents, and she had always longed for the warmth of a real family

In her past life, her affection for James had stemmed merely from a moment of comfort he offered at her O father's funeral. She had run out alone to cry, and he had comforted her and walked her home. Well, in truth, her feelings for James had always been one-sided.
Colby asked "What are you daydreaming about? Don't you like it?" Colby Sophie cback to reality, shook her head, and said, “Im not picky." Then, Sophie started eating the apple with her fork.
