Honestly, Sophia’s first impression of Easton was quite good, and even very good. In her eyes, he looked so dignified and righteous in his military uniform.
But as soon as she thought of his parents, she just wanted to shake her head, and his score in her heart suddenly dropped a lot.
"Don’t say anything more, anyway, I just don’t agree with Lily marrying into the Hols Residence." Sophia tried not to look at Easton as she spoke. She was worried that seeing him might change her mind, and that’s not the result she wanted to see.
Easton’s eyes were sharp. Sophia’s deliberate dodging movents did not escape his notice, further confirming his suspicion that sothing was amiss here.
"Can you tell why?"
His eyes were fixed intently on her, sitting not far away, hoping she would give him a clear answer and an honest explanation.
Suddenly, Sophia lifted her head and looked at the questioning Easton with indignation, "Because I don’t want Lily to be hard by your family."
His mother could do anything, and she couldn’t take this risk. She couldn’t afford to take this risk.
"Our family wants to harm Lily?"
Sophia’s comnt left Easton extrely shocked, and his expression changed.
"Don’t ask anything more, and don’t say anything else. No matter what you say, I will not agree to this matter." Sophia raised her hand and waved it, once again issuing an eviction order to Easton, "You should go."
After saying that, she withdrew her gaze and hand, turning her head to look elsewhere.
Seeing Sophia’s resolute expression, Easton knew that saying anything at this point would be futile, and saying more would only make her angrier. He didn’t intend to stay any longer to upset her.
If it were soone else, he could ignore it, but she was his wife’s mother, and he absolutely couldn’t disregard her.
"Then I’ll take my leave now, I’ll co back another day."
After saying that, he stood up from the sofa.
"Don’t co back in the future. Our family doesn’t welco anyone from the Hols Residence." Upon hearing Sophia’s words, Easton, who was about to leave, stopped and turned his head down to look at her sitting on the sofa.
But before he could speak, he heard her say, "If you truly care for Lily, then please don’t cling to her any longer. Proceed with the divorce procedures soon and let her go ho early."
She looked into his eyes, showing no sign of backing down.
"I will not divorce Lily."
Easton exchanged a look with Sophia for a while, left a remark, and then turned to leave.
Bam!
When he shut the door to leave, he heard the sound of sothing being smashed in the living room.
Glancing in the living room’s direction, he shut the door and left.
Seeing Easton leave, Aunt Hua, who had been observing from a corner, ca out, tilted her head to look at Sophia in the living room, and quickly walked into the kitchen.
Once in the kitchen, she swiftly closed the door and took out the phone from her pocket. She imdiately dialed Alice’s number.
"Aunt Hua! What’s happening at ho again?"
When Aunt Hua called, Alice and Lily were discussing what to have for dinner, and seeing it was Aunt Hua calling, Alice’s heart imdiately tightened.
"Mr. Hols just ca to the house, and with..."
"Mr. Hols? Which Mr. Hols?"
Easton’s return was kept from the two sisters, and upon hearing Aunt Hua ntion Mr. Hols coming to the house, Alice did not think of Easton at all. The Mr. Hols in her mind was Easton’s father.
But Aunt Hua gave her a different answer: "It was the Mr. Hols who just ca with the second young lady."
