Laura said, "The outcome is not in our control. And we can't prevent anyone from being jealous."
Emma sighed.
"You don't have to blame this on yourself. I know you are super nice to Sophia."
Emma nodded.
Laura looked around and said, "This house looks pretty good!"
"It's my son's house. Sophia had intended to rent a house herself, but I think, as the host, we should get a place for you, so I asked Sophia to bring you here."
Laura smiled and looked at Sophia. "Sophia may not want to trouble you."
"Not at all. We are so close to each other. I'm very happy to do this!"
"Thank you. By the way, how are you getting along with your son and daughter?"
"My son has been in touch with me these years, so he and I get along well, but it will take time to get closer to my daughter."
"Them have them both come together tonight!"
"You bet!"
After a short chat, they both went where they were needed.
Laura and Abbott specially brought a luxurious, elegant, and noble dress for Sophia.
The guests invited to the banquet couldn't quite understand what it was about. They knew nothing but that Sophia would attend it.
They had read a lot about Sophia these days, so they were curious about what would happen tonight.
Besides the guests with the invitations, some reporters were also here.
When Abbott and Laura who lived in Pinkerton appeared, everyone froze, wondering why they came to Sealand.
Abbott and Laura appeared. As the hostess, Laura held Abbott's arm and greeted everyone with an elegant smile.
When Sophia appeared, she was wearing her own clothes rather than the clothes brought by her parents, which she would change into later.
As soon as Sophia appeared, she rubbed her face against Abbott's and Laura's, as if she was very familiar with them.
It made the others more curious about the relationship between Sophia and the Lawson family.
After talking to Abbott and Laura for a while, Sophia began to greet the others.
When she saw the Old Riley as well as Olivia and Aria, she said with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Riley. I'm very pleased you could make it here today."
The Old Riley snorted. "I just want to see what you are going to do today?"
Cecelia had arrived a long time ago. Seeing this, she quickly walked over and said with contempt, "You don't have to be so proud of knowing Mr. and Mrs. Lawson. Anyway, you can't marry into their family."
In Cecelia's opinion, due to the news on the Internet, the Old Riley would never allow Sophia to marry Drake, even if Sophia saved Drake.
Hence, Sophia was trying to marry into the Lawson family now.
Sophia said with a smile and in a playful tone, "Marrying into the Lawson family? I really don't have that in mind!"
Her voice was not small, so everyone heard it.
The others looked at Sophia and thought she must be crazy.
After all, in their mind, without the Lawson family's help, Sophia couldn't be who she was today.
