When the butler of Villa No. 8 heard that Sophia was about to return, he happily cleaned up the rooms to welcome her back.

Sophia had no plans of returning after moving out this time. Not only did she bring Carmen, her medical team, and her team of professional educators, but she also brought all her cats, dogs, alpacas, and eels along with her. She even dug out her favorite plants and brought them along with her.

learning that Carmen was sick, Lorelei & Co. quickly gathered at her house to accompany her. Similarly, Nathan also joined them. However, Stanley came and brought Sean and Maisie home with him when the afternoon rolled around. The words Annabel casually uttered had probably saddened Sean too—she claimed that it was inappropriate for outsiders like Sean and Celine to

She believed that it should have been left to their son. Hence, Linus took advantage of the turmoil today to move back into Villa No. 2 and became
