Although Sophie grew up in the Walyon Family, deep down she seemed to be a very lonely child.
Whenever Adrian wasn’t staying with the Walyon Family, Sophie would frequently visit him every few days.
Despite the many people in the Walyon Family, she never felt it was lively.
After arriving, she had dinner with Adrian and his wife, and then Adrian went upstairs to handle some work matters.
Summer Sutton stayed downstairs to keep Sophie company.
Sophie led her through Kings Canyon, and as a child prodigy not even nine years old, she was a genius in the gaming world, able to play smoothly against opponents of any rank.
After two rounds, she lifted her face proudly, "Do you know why I’m so good?"
Summer Sutton rolled her eyes.
The Walyon Clan Group has a department specializing in game development; how could she not be amazing?
"Never mind, I won’t let you be envious." Sophie waved her hand, snuggling into the sofa to continue playing her game.
Upstairs, Adrian finished handling some work matters; listening to the laughter coming intermittently from downstairs, he suddenly couldn’t understand.
His wife was his, so why would she spend time with that brat Sophie instead of accompanying him?
Adrian was quite displeased, slapped the file in his hand shut, went downstairs, and strode towards the two. Without further ado, he picked Sophie up and threw her out of the villa, having the driver send her away.
Returning to the hall, he picked up Summer Sutton and walked straight upstairs.
"Why were you so rough with Sophie?" Summer Sutton looked up at him, a bit reproachful, "He’s just a lonely child, it wouldn’t hurt to let him stay a little longer."
Summer Sutton could actually understand Sophie; she had been much lonelier as a child than Sophie was.
The most Sophie lacked was someone to play with, while from childhood to adulthood, Summer Sutton had always been on her own.
"If you have the leisure to play with a child, wouldn’t it be better to use that time to spend with your husband?" Adrian glanced at her disdainfully.
Adrian didn’t say much more, carrying her upstairs.
Summer Sutton thought that he hurried to get rid of Sophie to do that kind of thing.
To her surprise, he took her to the study.
Summer Sutton was momentarily stunned as she watched the direction he was heading in.
"The study... might be a bit inconvenient?" Her face showed a bit of discomfort, her voice slightly lowered as she spoke.
Adrian drove Sophie away truly to have Summer Sutton accompany him.
However, his idea of accompaniment didn’t always carry a suggestive connotation. Original content can be found at novel•fire.net
This time, when Adrian said "accompany," he simply meant to have her by his side.
But it was obvious that Summer Sutton misunderstood.
Adrian’s lips twitched; he didn’t explain but followed up on her words, "What’s inconvenient about it?"
When he wants to, the study, living room, bathroom—where can’t they?
Summer Sutton, however, disagreed; the study was full of bookshelves and desks—how could they do that kind of thing there?
"The study is very small!" She hurriedly said, lifting her face.
"Since when is twenty square meters small?" On the carpet, they can roll however they like.
"But, but..." Summer Sutton wanted to continue arguing but couldn’t think of another reason at the moment.
Fine, let him do as he pleases!
Adrian didn’t expect her to compromise just like that.
Looking down at her, his gaze suddenly deepened.
Adrian brought her upstairs out of mere confusion at first, not with any complicated motives.
But seeing Summer Sutton nestled in his arms, looking as if she would let him do whatever he wanted tonight, Adrian suddenly felt a bit impulsive.
