“Stop saying that, Lydia. I don’t feel that way at all,” Sophia responded. As she noticed Lydia was forcing a smile, she instantly felt her heart aching, so she walked toward the latter to give her a tight hug. She whispered into Lydia’s ear, “No matter where you’re heading in the future, let me know. I’ll go over and visit you whenever I have the chance.”

“Remember what you said. You can’t lie to me!” With a smile, Lydia stretched out her pinky finger to Sophia. “Pinky swear!”

“Okay, pinky swear!”

Seeing Lydia behave like a child, Sophia could not help but beam. She hooked her pinky with the former’s and promised, “I’ll keep my promise for a hundred years, or I’ll be a j*rk if I break it!”

At that moment, the two women in their thirties looked like children who were playing a childish game.

“All right. Do not cry, Sophia. Many people are watching. You won’t look pretty with teary eyes.” Lydia gently patted Sophia’s shoulders after seeing the latter’s slightly reddened eyes.

Next, she turned to Jonathan, bit her lip lightly, and uttered, “Jonathan, thank you so much for this afternoon. Without your help, I don’t know what I would’ve done!”

“There’s no need to thank me. You should thank Aunt Sophia instead.” Jonathan looked indifferently at Sophia afterward.

In actuality, he would not have cared about the business of the Maxwells if it weren’t for Sophia, as he was always a person who did not like troublesome matters.

“No matter what, I still want to express my gratitude.” As soon as Lydia finished her words, she lowered her head respectfully.

Upon seeing Lydia’s action, Sophia opened her mouth but ultimately said nothing.

However, right then, she unexpectedly heard Jonathan saying, “You don’t have to do this. After all, I’m the one who’s chasing the Maxwells out of Yaleview!”

“Jonathan…”

Sophia blanched when she heard the man’s words. This situation was what she feared the most.

One was her best friend, while the other was her biological nephew—the only child of her deceased older brother.

Consequently, she was stuck in a dilemma.

“W-What did you just say?” Lydia stiffened instantaneously. With a forlorn expression, she glanced at Sophia, then turned to gaze at Jonathan. “Jonathan, you’re joking with me, right? Isn’t it the legendary Asura who expelled us from Yaleview?”

Regardless of how slow-witted she was, she was still aware that the only person who could command Asura’s Office’s Andy, one of the four Kings of War, was Asura.

But, why is Jonathan saying that it was him?

“I’m not joking with you.” As he saw Lydia’s rigid movements, he replied coolly, “I’m the person who sent Andy and ordered to kick out the four prominent families of Yaleview.”

“W-What kind of joke is this, Jonathan?” Lydia subconsciously chuckled. “How could that be possible that you’re the one who gave the order? Didn’t you say you’re Andy’s roommate who shares the same bunk? How did you suddenly become Asura?”

“I lied to you,” Jonathan casually admitted. “I didn’t want to expose my identity too early at that time. Now that it’s revealed, there’s no need for me to hide it anymore.”
