"I'm actually not that nervous." She was not nervous as she did not believe Aaron would go through with the marriage. She was sure he was just flirting with her.
Aaron pretended to be disappointed. "Sigh, it seems I'm the only one who's nervous. You don't care about our marriage at all!" Annie could not bear to be with him like that, so she said, "It's getting late. Please, kindly sendhow now." 2 Aaron sighed. As helpless as he felt at that moment, he knew he deserved it for treating Annie badly in the past.
Two days later, at New Capital City Airport, Sophia cto pick up her father alone, leaving Jeremy and Bryan to wait at home.
Sophia instinctively glared at Melinda when she saw her coming out with Adam before running toward her father and hugging him.
"Dad, you're finally here! You have no idea how hard the things you askedto deal with have been lately. I'm about this close to going crazy!" said Sophia.
Adam hugged his eldest daughter and stroked her head lovingly. "Don't worry, I'm here now. No one will dare to cause you trouble anymore!" "You're the best, Dad!" said Sophia as she snuggled into her father's arms, and relief washed over her. She knew her father always a i on his promise.

Sophia, who just felt the warmth of her father's love, paused at her father's admonishment. Nonetheless, she quickly put on a superficial smile as she turned to Melinda.
"Hello, Melinda. It's been a while. You've beceven more beautiful than the last t| saw you. In fact, you haven't aged at all. Seems like my father takes good care of you!" Melinda smiled back. Although she could hear the sarcasm in Sophia's voice, she decided to let it slide. She cared for her stepdaughter sincerely, so she said, "Sophia, you have lost weight. Is it because you've been so busy dealing with your father's affairs recently that you haven't been eating well?" At that point, she turned her head and scolded Adam softly, "It's all because of you. You shouldn't have let her chere all alone to do so many things. Look at how thin she is!" Adam smiled at her and said nothing. He simply accepted her admonishment humbly.
However, Sophia did not appreciate this. She just smiled politely and said," Thank you for caring about me, Melinda, but it's my duty to help my father. After all, I'll eventually take over the business. He's just tougheningup, which I'm very grateful for." She was indirectly warning Melinda to give up any thought of taking the business for herself by emphasizing that she alone was Adam's heir.
Melinda simply nodded and said, "Well, as long as you're grateful for the opportunity." Sophia was too paranoid in this matter. Melinda did not care about Adam's business or his assets, nor did her daughter Lilin. She would not even interfere with Adam's decision to distribute his assets in the future.
