Charlie could not help but stammer after hearing this, and he sighed as he said, "Your schedule is a little too packed."

"It doesn't matter." Sophie said firmly, "I'm in particularly good health now, and this small thing does not matter at all."

After saying that, Sophie then looked at Charlie bashfully as she said in a delicate voice and pleading tone, "Benefactor, aside from my mother, I only have you as my only friend in Aurous Hill. So, if I look for you to come out and hang out with me when the time comes, you cannot refuse me."

Charlie nodded. After that, he casually agreed as he laughed and said, "As long as time allows, it definitely will not be a problem."

"Alright, then!"

After getting the answer that she wanted the most, Sophie finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Charlie looked at the time and spoke up, "It's already late. I will send you back to the Schulz family's mansion first."

Sophie hurriedly asked, "Benefactor, are you going back to the Wade family's mansion tonight?" "No." Charlie said indifferently, "I'll go back to Uncle Golding's house. I feel more comfortable and at ease there."

Sophie suddenly thought of Quinn and the marriage contract between Charlie and Quinn. After that, she came to a sudden realization and nodded. Charlie asked Isaac to prepare a car for him. After that, he personally drove Sophie and himself as he headed for the Schulz family's mansion.

On the way, Sophie secretly looked at Charlie's side profile, and she wanted to say something several times, but she kept holding back in the end.

It was only when Charlie had already driven all the way to the Schulz family's mansion, stopped, and parked the car outside that Sophie finally spoke up and said, "Benefactor... Thank you for the matter between my parents. If it weren't for you, my father certainly would have never agreed to divorce my mother..."

Charlie asked her, "You wished for your parents to divorce?"

"Mhm." Sophie nodded and said, "The both of them were not living so happily. This kind of marriage is only in name. So, instead of lingering on, it would be better for them to end the marriage before it's too late."

As Sophie spoke, she could not help

but sigh as she said, "My father must have lived a particularly frustrating life for many years now His wife who has been by his side and sleeping in the same bed as him has always loved another man. If it was any other man, I am afraid that it would have been very difficult for him to accept this..."

Charlie was a little embarrassed as he nodded. If he were to evaluate this matter from a completely objective point of view, he would also feel that Sophie's mother was at fault in the first place in the marriage between Sophie's parents. However, the man that Sophie's mother loved deeply was Charlie's own father. Hence, Charlie also did not know how to evaluate this matter.

At this time, Sophie looked at

Charlie. When she saw that Charlie

had also turned his face around and when the both of them met eye to eye at this moment, she hurriedly turned her head away to look out the front of the car as she said softly, "Actually, it has not been easy for my mother to live like this all these years. After all, her other half who is accompanying her is not the person whom she truly loves. Even if she does not have any resentment in her heart, she must also feel inevitably disappointed..."

As Sophie spoke, she mustered the courage to look at Charlie as she said seriously, "In truth, in the past, I could not quite understand my mother's actions, and I felt that she really let my father down. Even if the both of them had spoken about this before they got married, I also felt that my mother should not have been so stingy with my father when

it came to love..."

At this point, Sophie lowered her eyelids and said quietly, "However, since I met you, I can finally understand my mother more and more now. Back then, she must have been in the same situation as I am in right now. She could not help but fall in love with a man whom she could not get..."

Charlie coughed twice. "Cough, cough! It's a little too hasty to say such things now..."

Sophie shook her head. She looked at Charlie and said seriously, "This is how things actually are. However, I will not be like my mother. If I was her, I would rather choose not to marry anyone for the rest of my life instead of getting married to a man that I do not love." After saying that, Sophie looked at Charlie, and both sides of her cheeks bulged slightly as she said seriously, "Charlie! If I end up being a spinster in the future or even if I end up living the rest of my life alone, don't doubt it, but it must be because of you!"
