Chapter 277 Capture His Heart
Sophocles resided in Emberfall’s old district, where almost everything was courtyard houses with vintage charm. Thanks to the government’s meticulous preservation, the area could easily rival the beauty of national parks.
It was Liam’s first time there, so his large eyes would dart around, curiously taking in his surrounding
In the counyard of Sophocles‘ residence, a variety of flowers were planted. When they arrived, he and his wife were bury watering the plants.
“Good morning. Mr. Quill, Mrs. Quill Nathan stepped forward, his usual stern demeanor absent. His eyes and brows softened as he greeted the two elders.
Sophocles set down the watering can he was holding, greeting them cheerfully. “You’re here”
Then he turned his gaze toward the woman and child who had followed Nathan into the room. His smile instantly grew even wider.
“Nathan, this is the first time you’ve brought a girl here, isn’t it?” Holly teased with a laugh her gaze, just like her husband’s fixed on Olivia.
“Meet Olivia, and my son, Liam, Nathan introduced them, then added, “She’s his mother.”
Upon hearing that, both Sophocles and Holly were taken aback. If the child was his son, then the child’s mother…
“Hello, Mr. Quill, Mrs. Quill, Olivia courteously greeted the two elders.
Liam, with a sweet tongue and obedient demeanor, greeted, “Hello, Old Mr. Quill, Old Mrs. Quill,”
“Come over here and let me take a look at you,” Holly called out to Liam, her face lighting up with affection
She studied Liam closely, smiling from ear to ear. “Sophocles, this child truly is a spitting image of Nathan from back in the day”
Sophocles looked at Liam, his fondness for the child clear and undisguised. “Nathan, it seems fate meant for him to be my student.” It seems that even at this age. I’m able to take on a disciple who I find endearing it must be a twist of fate.
Olivia watched them with a gentle, soft smile, secretly letting out a sigh of relief. She hadn’t expected the two elders to take such a liking to Liam,
At that moment, Sophocles lifted his gaze, taking her in with a smile, “I believe we’ve met before, haven’t we?”
A slight change crossed Nathan’s brow while Olivia was taken aback when they heard that.
She hadn’t expected Sophocles to have such a good memory.
Once, during a rainfall, she came with an umbrella to meet Nathan. Indeed, she had met with Sophocles at that time.
Surprisingly. Sophocles remembered that one encounter with her.
Regaining her composure, Olivia gave a soft chuckle, “Indeed, I didn’t expect you to still remember me.”
“Of course, I remember.” Sophocles chuckled, casting a glance at Nathan. He said with profound implication, “So, you’re the one who captured Nathan’s hear. Even back then, I could tell he felt differently about you.”
His words caused Olivia to furrow her brows deeply.
Struck right in his innermost thoughts, an unnatural flicker crossed Nathan’s face. He turned his head to look at Olivia.
“Mr. Quill, actually…” Olivia was about to explain as she opened her mouth.
that moment, Holly gave Nathan an annoyed glance and chided, “Nathan, you’ve really kept this a secret. The child is giready so big, and only now you’ve brought them for us to see.”
Chapter 277 Capture His Heart
Once she had taken her seat, she finally snapped back to reality. However, it was already too late for explanations.
She really wanted to tell the two elders that she wasn’t capable enough to capture Nathan’s heart
With a silent sigh in her heart, she handed the box she brought to Sophocles. “Mr. Quill, this is a small token of my appreciation. I hope you won’t find it distasteful.”
