Sophia thought. What did Hamet mean by that?
Wasn’t her husband’s corpse found?
Afraid of depressing her, I haven’t asked about her husband’s situation these past few days.
1 thought she had kept the body, but from what she said, there seemed to be nothing.”
“Harriet, you
Before Sophia could finish her words, Harriet took a deep breath and smiled bitterly. “I’m fine. Don’t worry..
“Just as you guessed, he was shipwrecked, and the whole ship sank
“The rescued team had been salvaging for a few days and found some corpses one after another, but my husband was not among them.
“According to professionals, the body was likely to be eaten by carnivorous fish in the sea.
“Far away in a foreign country, I could not continue salvaging, so I burned his clothes as ashes.
“Send Britney back to me. Her father won’t sc
want her to say goodbye to him.”
Sophia glanced at the little girl who was nursing, her eyes filled with pity.
Now, the only one who could comfort Harriet was probably her daughter.
“Okay, I’ll take her to you later. Don’t be too sad.”
“Wright”
After ending the call, Sophia took a few deep breaths to suppress her low spirits.
“Lana, go upstairs and pack the baby’s daily necessities. I’ll send her back to her mother’s place later.”
The butler wanted to ask if he should inform Jason. However, Sophia’s cold gaze stopped him.
He wondered, ‘I’d better go upstairs before calling Mr. Wilson and telling him about that‘
Sophia took the baby from the nanny and gently fed her.
They would probably never have the chance to meet again in the future.
Although Sophia had only stayed with Britney for about ten days, Sophia had a great affection for her and was more or less reluctant to part
with her
Rapid footsteps sounded outside. It was Jason who had rushed back after receiving the news.
“You’re sending Britney away!”
Jason’s slippers were covered in snow, and so was his thick hair
His clothes were wet

He had never been in such a sorry state before.
Sophia glanced at him and then looked back at the little girl in her arms.
“Her mother called me, I can’t hold on to her.””
Jason pursed his lips, changing his slippers and taking off his wet coat. He strode to the sola and carried Britney from Sophia.
“You don’t have enough patience. Don’t scare her. Let me do it.”
Sophia could say nothing.
Seeing Jason feeding Britney with the nursing bottle skillfully, she quietly touched her belly.
She wondered, “If it was my baby, would he dote on it like that?‘
The butler walked downstairs with a few ba
daily necessities.
After feeding Britney, Jason hugged her and kissed her soft cheeks twice. Then, he placed her in Sophia’s arms reluctantly.
“I still have something on, so I won’t send her off in person. Stay at your friend’s house and accompany them for a few days.”
Sophia looked at him in surprise.
Jason was willing to let her spend the night at Harriet’s house?
Jason glanced at her coldly and walked out. As he walked, he said, “Don’t even think about escaping. You won’t be able to do it.”
At noon, Sophia went to Harriet’s house with Britney.
The moment Harriet hugged her daughter, she broke down and wailed.
Britney cried as well, their cries echoing in the living room.
Sophia comforted Harriet for a long time and finally calmed her down.
After coaxing the baby, they sat on the sofa and chatted for the entire afternoon.
Sophia was told about the whole story. Not knowing how to cheer up Harriet, she stayed and accompanied Harriet and Britney.
She stayed for two days.
On the afternoon of the third day, she received a call from George, who asked to meet her at the hotel.
Thinking that she owed him a favor, she did not refuse and rushed to the appointment. Little did she know that a conspiracy was waiting for
her.
