Sophia pondered for a moment before deciding to capture crucial pages from the documents and send them to her mother via pictures.
[Sophia: Dick is going to collaborate with Hesper. Mom, it appears that Hesper has no intention of returning to be his wife. We must not let my brother make another mistake.]
At that moment, Julie was receiving cooking lessons from Wendy on how to make an omelet. Though a simple dish, Julie struggled as she had not been cooking for a long time. Rickard had assigned Wendy to keep an eye on his mother, and Wendy thought it would be wise to teach her some cooking skills first.
Although it was Rickard's arrangement, Wendy knew that she was just a servant and should not interfere too much in the Duvals' family affair.
Upon reading Sophia's message, Julie was infuriated. However, knowing that she had made a significant error, she understood that Rickard would not heed her words at the moment.
As for Ernest, he would do everything in his power to bring Rickard and Hesper together as a couple if he discovered their ongoing communication, since he was more inclined towards their union.
"This is terrible..." Julie muttered to herself, leaving Wendy bewildered.
"What's wrong?" Wendy inquired.
Ignoring her, Julie removed her apron and stormed out of the kitchen. Wendy followed closely behind but was promptly pushed aside.
Julie had harbored dissatisfaction with Wendy for some time. Rickard had grown up alongside Wendy, treating her with more respect than he showed his mother. If it were not for Wendy, why would Rickard not listen to her?
Despite being pushed aside by Julie, Wendy continued to follow her, as she had been entrusted by Rickard to keep an eye on his mother. Julie looked at Wendy with disdain before turning around to send a message.
