Teresa laughed as well. Sophia's good day was finally coming to an end! She then put her arms around her mother's arm and said in a pettishly charming manner, "thank you, mother. What are you waiting for? Let's hurry to godmother's home!" As she spoke, Teresa was about to take Connie out of the door.
"Wait!" "Behave well when we meet your godmother later. You know everything that Sophia had done when you meet her the YS Group, and I don't believe that your godmother will allow such a woman to marry into Xiao family," she said to Teresa. With these words, Connie hummed coldly.
After telling Teresa to change into decent clothes and prepare some gifts, they went to Xiao family together. When they arrived at Xiao family's door, Connie took out her phone to check the time. She knew that since it wasn't the off-duty time of the YS Group, Victor must not be at home.
They rang the doorbell and a servant opened the door. When the servant of Xiao family saw them, she bowed respectfully and greeted, "Mrs. Connie, Miss Teresa, Mrs. Grace is in the ward. Please follow me."
Then he led them to the living room and said to Grace, who was lying on the reclining chair in the living room and reading newspaper with a pair of glasses, "Mrs. Grace, Mrs. Connie and Miss Teresa are here."
"Okay." Grace folded the newspaper, put it aside and sat up straight. After tidying up her clothes, she stood up and greeted them with a smile. "Connie, Teresa, why didn't you tell me that you would come here today? In this way, I can ask the kitchen to prepare more food for you." Grace said with a smile.
"It won't bother you at all. I just have something to do and bring Teresa here to show us around." Connie smiled and waved her hands.
When Grace saw the gifts in the hands of Connie, she smiled and said, "you don't have to bring anything for me. I'm so embarrassed. Have a seat!"
After they sat down on the sofa, Grace looked at Teresa and asked with a smile, "do you see Victor recently, Teresa?"
After a pause, Teresa lowered her head and slightly shook her head. She looked rather upset and pitiful.
Seeing her behave like this, Grace understood that her son didn't treat Teresa nicely. Grace sighed slightly and persuaded Teresa, "you know, it's not easy for him to take all the responsibility of the YS Group alone. He has no background to see you. Please forgive him, Teresa. If you don't have any relationship with Victor, just come to the YS Group more often, because your relationship has already developed. Victor is not hardhearted. Am I right?"
"I..." Teresa raised her head and wanted to say something, but finally she lowered her head and bit her lips, without saying anything. Teresa pouted. Tears welled up in her eyes, as if she had suffered great grievances.
When Grace saw that Teresa looked like she was about to cry again, she was a little dissatisfied, but she didn't show anything on her face. Instead, she smiled faintly and said, "look at you. You can tell me anything you want to say. If Victor bullies you, I will support you."
"I agree. There is nothing you can't say to your godmother. Tell your godmother everything you see. Don't keep her in the dark."
Teresa raised her head, hesitated. Then she said with hesitation, "I... I brought lunch to the YS Group the other day. I think since Victor is so busy with his work, it may not be good for his health. So I went to have a meal with him. "
"You are so considerate and you are still worried about Victor." Upon hearing this, Grace gave her a satisfied smile.
"But... But the moment I entered Victor's office, I saw... Sophia. And Victor... " Speaking of this, Teresa lowered her head and blushed. It seemed that she had thought of something extremely shameful.
However, it didn't cross Grace's mind. She thought that as a girl who had grown up into a respectable family, Teresa's shyness gave Grace the chance to guess what sort of relationship between Victor and Sophia.
Victor was her son, so she believed that Victor couldn't seduce a female secretary actively in the office, then there was only one possibility: Sophia seduced his son! Grace had a bad impression of Sophia. Now, she looked even more depressed!
Looking at the expression on Grace's face, Connie knew that she had achieved her goal, but it was not enough! 'What's more, I need to try harder, 'she thought! "I should have let it go. I know Victor doesn't like Teresa, so I won't force him to accept Teresa. But I have watched Victor grow up. Even if he doesn't be with my daughter, he should find a decent girl. It's really hard to be with such a woman... " With these words, Connie shook her head and let out a heavy sigh.
