บท 151: Holding The Reins

At Benton Villa,

A lean woman in her late forties was sitting on the couch. She looked frail and haggard. She stared at a man who was at the bar counter. He was chugging glass after glass. She could see him tremble occasionally.

She had received a message asking if her husband treated her son as his own. She hadn't doubted her husband until then.

Now that she was taking a good look at his actions, it was so easy to guess he was nervous and tense rather than forlorn for losing their son… No, it's her son.

"Sofia…" An older lady approached the woman named Sofia holding a tray of food, "Sofia, you haven't eaten anything for the whole day. You will fall ill. Eat at least a little." The old lady sat next to Sofia Benton.

Sofia looked at her mother-in-law. After receiving the message, she wasn't able to trust her husband's family anymore. She was even doubting her mother-in-law.
