Chapter 517 Sophia was standing by the window, gazing at the vibrant night cityscape. Upon hearing the elderly voice, she swiftly turned towards the door. There stood an elderly lady in her eighties, her familiar stooped figure and gentle face instantly tugging at the softest strings in Sophia's heart.

It was a forced choice back then, having to fake death and leave the country. Five whole years have passed since. The person she missed the most during these years was Luna, who West took away. Also, there was Alison, who Sophia implicated in lying on her deathbed due to Arla's schemes.

It was said that shortly after Sophia's death, Alison woke up from her coma. Upon learning of her passing, she was deeply saddened. In her grief, she went abroad to recuperate in peace and did not return for several years.

A few years ago, Sophia had intended to visit her in Dreyria to see her and help with her health. However, she feared Alison might sympathize with her grandson and inform Jason that she was still alive. After weighing her options several times, she ultimately chose to remain silent.

Looking at Alison's head full of gray hair and her weathered, weary face, Sophia knew these years must have been tough for her. Perhaps it was the grief over Sophia's death, or perhaps the son's divorce, along with Jason barely hanging on, that caused their family to fall apart. In any case, this kind-hearted woman spent her later years in great hardship.

"Sophie, why are you standing there like that? Don't you recognize me?" Sophia gazed at Alison's face, wrinkled yet radiating a serene and gentle smile, and her eyes gradually moistened. Over the years, amidst the changes and challenges of life, she could ignore any acquaintance in the city. But she couldn't be indifferent to Alison, who had endured so much pain and sorrow from the passage of time.

Sophia believed that her eight-year-long crush was heartfelt and justified. However, due to her insufficient fate with Jason, it ended tragically, Despite the marriage bringing her much pain, it ultimately fulfilled her dreams.

People should understand the importance of repaying kindness. She should be grateful to Alison for creating an opportunity for her to marry into the Wilson family. Under her loving gaze, Sophia walked step by step towards the door. As she approached, she bent slightly as if about to drop her knees.

Seeing this, Alison quickly tossed aside her cane and used all her strength to grab hold of her hands. However, she couldn't hold back due to her advanced age and ended up stumbling forward instead.

Sophia's expression changed abruptly. Seeing Alison stumbling like that, she was instantly alarmed about the potential consequences of a fall at her age. Quickly adjusting her posture, Sophia stepped back several paces while holding onto her, barely managing to steady her wavering figure.

"Alison, are you hurt anywhere!" Sophia asked.

Alison paid no attention to her physical condition, extending her thin, bony right hand to touch Sophia's face gently. "Being alive is what matters. Being alive allowsto rest in peace with a smile." Sophia helped her sit on the couch, then crouched down slowly, expressing regret. "Over these years, I should not have hidden the fact of my survival from you, causing you to worry." Alison smiled at her and waved her hand, saying, "You hid it well. Otherwise, I would have told that scoundrel at hyour news. He's done so many wrongs, betrayed your deep love for him. He deserves to be trapped in the torment of losing the one he loved, living a life worse than death."

Sophia was momentarily taken aback. Earlier, when she saw the look in Alison's eyes, she thought she had cto reconcile Sophia didn't expect. her to say such words. "As long as you understand and forgive me, it won't be vain forto respect and honor you. Now that Jason is about to marry, this entanglement can finally end"

Alison had hesitated briefly, her words catching in her throat as she met Sophia's calmn gaze. She had sensed that any attempt to explain would be futile. Where onge she had seen infatuation in Sophia's eyes, now all that remained was detachment, etched by years. Jason had brought his Troubles upon himself and must face the consequences. Whether he ended up lonely in old age or with a loving wife in his arms, it had been all up
