My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 1052

When the butler of Villa No. 8 heard that Sophia was about to return, he happily cleaned up the rooms to welcome her back.

Sophia had no plans of returning after moving out this time. Not only did she bring Carmen, her medical team, and her team of professional educators, but she also brought all her cats, dogs, alpacas, and eels along with her. She even dug out her favorite plants and brought them along with her.

Linus had been busy with the matters involving Sophia’s banquet all day long. To his surprise, he received a phone call from Sophia’s assistant, saying that the banquet was postponed. Only then did he learn about the events that had occurred today. Thus, he anxiously rushed back to The Imperial.

Celine and Sean relocated along with Sophia, lest Annabel said something hurtful again.

Then, Sophia led him to Carmen’s room. Now that Carmen had returned to the place she grew up in, she seemed to be in a good mood. Unfortunately, she was still feeling sick and snuggled in her bed, refusing to move. When she saw Linus entering her room, she softly called out, “Uncle Linus…”

Upon hearing her calling him ‘Uncle Linus’ softly, his heart melted. He sat by her bed and stroked her hair. He gently said, “Good girl. But, you should be calling me Grand-uncle Linus!”

She pursed her lips. “No. Daddy said that when Grandpa isn’t around, I should call you Uncle Linus.”

He smiled and teased her, “Then, did you eat your medicine properly when I’m not around?”

Cheering up, she said, “I did! Mommy fed me a lot!”

Afterward, he revealed the toys he had brought for her. He had personally gone to his studio to retrieve them. Contrary to his expectations, he discovered that Sophia had moved out as soon as he arrived home. Handing the gifts over to her, he said, “Look! I prepared a new royal sweetheart cup! As well as a royal sweetheart bowl! Don’t forget; there’s also the stamp you designed yourself! And, your Royal Sweetheart Alpaca doll!”

Carmen happily accepted the toys from Linus. Michael treasured her very much—so much so that even the small bowls and spoons she used daily were unique items. They even had the logo she designed herself on them. Sophia had smashed her royal sweetheart bowl in a rage today, and she was still feeling sad over it. So, she was pleasantly surprised to see the new bowl. However, the sight of her sickly smiling face made Sophia feel very sad.

Upon learning that Carmen was sick, Lorelei & Co. quickly gathered at her house to accompany her. Similarly, Nathan also joined them. However, Stanley came and brought Sean and Maisie home with him when the afternoon rolled around. The words Annabel casually uttered had probably saddened Sean too—she claimed that it was inappropriate for outsiders like Sean and Celine to be staying in their house.

Meanwhile, Sophia was busy settling the issues over her sudden relocation and her work. Carmen’s illness and the fight with Cooper had also left her exhausted. She worked until late at night before she could rest. Fortunately, Linus was with her, and Sarah also came over to help her. Otherwise, she would have driven herself nuts.

Recently, the atmosphere at the Edwards Residence was rather strange. Annabel seemed quite critical of Linus’ presence. She believed that it was inappropriate for Cooper to let an outsider manage his assets. She believed that it should have been left to their son. Hence, Linus took advantage of the turmoil today to move back into Villa No. 2 and became neighbors with Sophia.

It was very late when Linus finally left Villa No. 8 after putting Carmen to bed. Sophia saw him off. Along the way, she took the chance to go out and walk her dogs. She wanted to get some air. Too many things had happened today, and she needed some time alone.

“Linus, thank you. It’s too bad that Carmen isn’t feeling well. The banquet might need to be postponed for several days.” She felt very apologetic.
