She hurriedly hung up Edward Harrison’s call, feeling that if the call went on any longer, she would become more upset. Lately, with Asher Land’s company, she had truly been very happy, and she longed for life with him to continue just . Soon after hanging up on Edward, another call came in. "Oh, Sophie, are you coming over to Brother Johnson’s place now? Uncle Smith and I are already here." Sophie Smith was a bit stunned, gripping the phone, unable to speak for a long while. Eva Miller had the phone on speaker as she stood in the kitchen at Oliver Johnson’s house, chopping vegetables. "Sophie, hurry and answer me! Are you coming or not? If you come quickly, you can still join us for lunch. I’m cooking, and I’ll make a few dishes you love..." "Eva, can you keep your distance from him?" Sophie cut off Eva’s endless chatter. Why did her best friend and dearest father choose to trust a man who used her and hurt her? The ridiculous part was that they were completely unaware of that man’s evil. Oliver Johnson, truly a clever person. The other end of the line suddenly fell silent. Eva glanced up at Oliver Johnson and Christopher Smith not far away, pulling a wry smile; since her phone was on speaker, they naturally heard all of Sophie’s words. Oliver Johnson remained unfazed, maintaining his gentlemanly smile, yet Christopher Smith’s expression turned livid, clearly angered. "Eva, did you hear what I said? Don’t get too close to him." "Enough, enough, Sophie, I heard you. I’ve got things to do, so I’ll hang up first." Eva quickly ended the call to diffuse the awkward atmosphere. In truth, she couldn’t understand why Sophie had such a grudge against Oliver Johnson. During the worst of Christopher Smith’s illness, wasn’t it thanks to Oliver that everything turned out okay? Why was Sophie turning her back now? "She’s really becoming more and more unreasonable!" Christopher Smith said angrily. "Don’t blame her," Oliver Johnson replied calmly, "I didn’t inform Miss Smith when I brought you to my home back then; it’s understandable for her to hold it against me." "Now, her entire mind is focused on that Asher Land. She doesn’t want friends, doesn’t want those who helped her, and even I, her father, mean nothing to her!" The rıghtful source is 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝙣𝙚𝙩 "Uncle Smith, don’t say it so seriously..." Eva interjected quickly to ease the situation, "President Land treats Sophie very well; it’s only natural for her to focus on him. What woman wouldn’t want a man who treats her well?" Eva initially aimed to mediate, but the more she spoke, the angrier Christopher became. "If it weren’t for the two of you taking care of me, I might have died already! She hasn’t come to see me once in all these days; she surely doesn’t regard me as her father anymore." Eva continued to speak well of Sophie beside Christopher, hoping he wouldn’t misunderstand her. How could Sophie possibly not care for her father? Oliver stood aside, hands behind his back, not saying a word. Keep a distance from him? Not to get too close? Ha, to her, was he really so wicked? He suddenly felt like a failure; no matter how he tried to make amends, she would never forgive him. "Mr. Johnson, please don’t be angry with Little Sophie; she’s just lost her mind," Christopher sighed and said.
