Countless pairs of eyes trained on Sophia after her words.

The sharpest stare came from Madam Xavier. There was a warning in her eyes, along with displeasure. If it were not for the fact that there were so many people around, Sophia had a feeling that her grandmother would have actually struck her with the cane.

She gulped and took an indignant step back, which made her step on her son, and he started crying from the pain.

Enraged, Sophia slapped him. “Why are you crying so much? What happened, are you mourning someone’s passing?”

Leo Gardner, her six-year-old son, began to cry harder. “You’re horrible, Mommy! You’re a witch! I hate you the most!”

Sophia was already in a bad mood, so when her son said that he hated her in public, she got so angry that she wanted to slap him again.

The atmosphere in the living room became hostile from their actions.

Madam Xavier’s expression turned dark, and she said, “Addy, once you sign the contract, come to my study room.”

Adina nodded. She signed her name on the contract and bent down to speak to her boy. “Alden, take good care of your sister. I’ll be back soon.”

Alden nodded in a mature manner and said, “I’ll take care of Mel, Mommy. Don’t worry.”
