"Mmm, mmm." Julian nodded reassuringly.
Sophie looked at her worried nephew and couldn’t help but smile as she asked, "Why are you so concerned about my relationship with your uncle?"
"Well..." Julian scratched his head and chuckled, "There are always these stories where wealthy and powerful n get snatched away by scheming won. Uh, I’m not saying my uncle lacks resolve—I’m just saying that if you ever co across such won, it’s definitely them imposing themselves, not related to my uncle. You must give him a chance to explain."
Sophie shook her head with a smile and said, "Don’t worry, there won’t be any misunderstandings between your uncle and ."
Julian’s eyes lit up, and he exclaid excitedly, "I knew it, you two have a great relationship!"
"That’s one reason. The important thing is, your uncle won’t let those won find an opening," Sophie thought of sothing and couldn’t help but smile, "Your uncle won’t do anything to make misunderstand again."
In the past life, they missed each other because of misunderstandings. In this life, he learned from his past mistakes, knowing that he’d given her a lonely, reminiscent, painful life, and he’s made changes!
"Huh?" Julian looked blankly at Sophie, not quite understanding what she ant.
"Did you forget what your uncle said before he went upstairs?" Sophie raised an eyebrow at Julian.
Julian frowned, recalling that his uncle’s words seed harmless, nothing more than—"I’m going to the study to handle so company matters,"—so what’s the big deal...
Suddenly realizing the point, Julian stared at Sophie with a bewildered expression.
His expression gave away that he understood, and Sophie nodded affirmatively, indicating that it was exactly as he thought.
Julian: "..."
A clear explanation of where he’s going and what he’s doing... When did Uncle beco so henpecked?
Is this really the uncle he knows?
And here he was, worrying that his uncle’s cold deanor would cause misunderstandings with Auntie.
What was he rushing here for early in the morning?
Feeling foolish for himself...
Julian ate breakfast in big bites, putting in a considerable effort.
"Slow down," Sophie advised as she noticed Julian suddenly speeding up his eating pace, "Aren’t you afraid of choking?"
"I have an interview later. I didn’t have anything scheduled today, but there was a sudden rescheduling, so I need to hurry," Julian explained after washing down his food with a sip of milk.
With that, Julian grabbed two BBQ pork buns from the table and, after saying goodbye to Sophie and the others, dashed out with a bun in his mouth.
Sophie was montarily stunned, then couldn’t help but laugh. Julian... he’s just too adorable.
Knowing that aside from having a rather difficult father, Mr. Seymour’s family treats him well, Sophie was quite relieved as well.
"Dad, Mom, don’t worry. You see, they’re all easy to get along with," Sophie turned to Clarissa and Mason and said.
She understood very well what her parents were worried about. The gift Charles gave her at the engagent party yesterday probably shocked them.
The love is just too overwhelming, and they must be worried that Charles’s family won’t approve and will make things difficult for her.
"Mmm." Mason, realizing Sophie hit the nail on the head, didn’t feel any embarrassnt. Who else would worry about his daughter’s affairs if he didn’t?
