However, the discovery just now had given Sophie a little more confidence deep in her heart.
This was because the biggest obstacle did not seem to be as difficult to overcome as she had initially imagined.
This instantly gave Sophie the feeling as though she could see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Therefore, Sophie walked out of the house and went into the courtyard while her mother was busy chatting with Claire about the plan. After that, she took out her cell phone before she sent a text message to Charlie on WhatsApp: [Benefactor, I really would not have expected you and your wife to be in an arranged marriage!]
Meanwhile, Charlie had just left the old town, and he was driving toward the airport.
Charlie was still thinking about the circumstances of his meeting with Helen and Sophie when he was on the way there. He could not help but sigh as he thought to himself, 'It seems as though Aurous Hill is indeed very small. If everything were to continue developing this way, there will be higher and higher chances of me bumping into various acquaintances in Aurous Hill in the future. If this continues, sooner or
later, there will come a time when the truth will finally come to light.' 1
In addition to feeling that Aurous Hill was a little small, Charlie felt that the influx of people who were coming into Aurous Hill from all walks of life was also increasing.
Sophie was here, Nanako was here, and Quinn would also be here soon.
However, Charlie did not know where these people would go after Quinn's concert.
Just as Charlie was feeling extremely emotional, he suddenly received a WhatsApp text message from Sophie. He was shocked by the contents of the text message upon glancing at it.
He looked at the time. He had just left for five minutes. So, how had Sophie gotten Claire to reveal these things to her so quickly?!
He sighed emotionally as he thought about Sophie's astuteness, and he replied to her message with a voice message: "What’s wrong with an arranged marriage? Although my wife and I are in an arranged marriage, w e have a very good relationship with one another." 3
Charlie replied: "I have something on today, so I will not go there. However, I have already asked Albert to contact Autumn. He should also be there when you meet Autumn later. I've already promised to give him the cargo ship supplies business, and I've also entrusted the security work at the port to him. So, he will also be working together with you in the future. If you have any requirements or needs, you can bring it u p to him directly."
Sophie then said: "Okay, Benefactor. I'll discuss this in further detail with Miss Hart and Albert." 2
As she spoke, she suddenly thought of something, and she spoke up and asked: "By the way, Benefactor, could it be that you are going to the airport to pick Quinn Golding up?" 5
When Charlie heard these words, he could not help but frown as he asked her: "What makes you say that?"
Sophie replied truthfully: "I know that you have a marriage contract with Quinn Golding, and it is said that their family has not given up looking for you for s 0 many years. In addition, coupled with the fact that Quinn Golding suddenly chose to hold the first concert of her concert tour in Aurous Hill, I can basically guess that the reason why she is doing so is because of you. Since Miss Golding will be coming all the way here from afar, as the host, it would only be reasonable for you to go to the airport to personally pick her up."
When Charlie heard this, he could not help but think t o himself that Sophie was indeed very smart. In fact, she was so smart that he could not help but involuntarily feel a little wary of her! 5
