“My brand–new ultra HD 98–inch TV!”

“I’ll pay for it.” Colby interrupted coldly.

Adler sniffled, changing his tune, “You’re just heartlessly extravagant.”

Colby had no mood to bicker with Adler who continued, “Ms. Sophie on TV was all lovey–dovey with her husband. What’s there for you to be upset about? I think you should give up on her as a friendly advice from a friend.”

“That was just for show.”

“And her getting close to Harold at school, was that just for show too?”

Of course, these were not words Adler could say to Colby’s face. It took him a while to retort, “Just don’t say you’re my friend when you’re out.”

This man was embarrassing!

Bea was all smiles, clearly taking the affection shown at the press conference to heart

Sophie managed a strained smile Bea, being elderly, loved meddling in the affairs of the younger generation.

Marian brought all the dishes from the kitchen to the table, then cast a meaningful glance at Sophie

She suddenly had a bad feeling To be safe, Sophie decided not to drink any wine that evening, and the always cautious James

abstained as well

After dinner, James put down his cutlery, “Grandma, Sophie and I are both tired from a long day. You should head back and rest early

too

“I understand. I won’t disturb you” Bea said as she got up and spoke to Manan, “You can leave early today and come back tomorrow to clean up.”

Marian nodded understandingly

The two seemed quite happy. Only Sophie felt something was amiss.

Once Bea and Manan had left. James dropped all pretenses and said coldly. Ton going upstairs”

Watching James ascend the stairs, Sophie began a meticulous search of the dining table.
