William and Bella looked at each other, both feeling uneasy.
Later, when Cathy came home from a day of work, she spotted the massage chair. Without a second thought, she sat on it directly and enjoyed herself.
Closing her eyes, Cathy was quite satisfied with this massage service and she said, "Mom, Dad, did you buy this massage chair? See? I was right. A massage chair would make our home cozier."
"We didn't buy it," Bella said.
"Then who bought it? Was it Grandma?" Cathy seemed to realize something so she continued, "Oh, I know. Grandma must have bought this for me because she knows her beloved granddaughter will be tired after work. This chair is so comfortable. Only sitting here for a few moments can relax my sore muscles."
"Stop daydreaming. That chair was ordered by Sophia," Bella retorted coldly.
Cathy sat up at once, staring at the chair, eyes wide open. "You said Sophia sent this?"
"That's right. What's more important is that your grandma has changed her attitude toward Sophia. You don't know how happy your grandma was when she received that massage chair. You should look at her big smile."
Cathy found the chair annoying immediately. "Mom, throw it out!"
Bella walked to her, "Are you sure? If you do so, you just wait and see how angry your grandma will become."
"Or what? Should I just put this damn thing here and let Sophia please Grandma?"
"You don't have other choices. I have seen through that little bitch Sophia. What a calculating woman she is! When your grandma first came here, she didn't like Sophia at all. But only after a couple of days, look how she adores Sophia now. Cathy, I'm afraid your cousin will become a threat."
Cathy scorned, "That's never going to happen. Ever since I was born, Grandma has loved me the most and this will never change."
"I don't think so. We have to be careful of that calculating Sophia," Bella reminded her daughter.
"Careful for what? Nonsense!" Unwilling to take her mother's advice, Cathy went to her room directly with her bag in her hands.
Lying in the bed, Cathy was about to call Sophia when she found out she was still on her sister's blacklist. Therefore, she sent Sophia a voice message on social media. "Sophia Lawson, don't think Grandma will be partial to you just because you sent her that stupid chair. I warn you everything you do is useless. Grandma will never ever like you!"
Sophia soon texted back, "Cathy, are you sure Grandma will not like me?"
"Oh, don't look so cocky. I'll make sure of it."
"That's interesting. Let's wait and see."
Cathy could feel Sophia's confidence from herwords, but she didn't give it a damn. She couldn't see why she should be afraid of Sophia.
The next day when Cathy was about to go to work, she noticed Grandma was talking to somebody and laughed from time to time.
Cathy hadn't heard her grandma laugh so heartily for a long time. Driven by curiosity, she approached her grandma's room.
"Grandma, just tell me what you want. I will order anything for you."
