Chapter 537 Sophia&##x27;s Birthday

Teresa put her daughter who had just fallen asleep in the cradle beside the bed and walked towards
Zed who was leaning against the window.

She gently put her arms around Zed's waist and leaned her head on Zed's back, listening to Zed's quiet
breath.

"What's wrong?"

Teresa asked softly.

"Nothing. I just feel that I didn't do a good job. I am not good in many parts."

Hearing what Zed said, Teresa felt sad.

"Don't take mom's words too seriously. You know, mom has been in a bad mood these days. Besides,
mom didn't talk to me much when I talked to her before you came back.

I told her that I went to see Sophia in the afternoon. She might be a little angry, because my mother
doesn't like Sophia very much. But when she saw my father agree with me to reconcile with Sophia,
she might feel embarrassed. Besides, my father said so.

And you happened to come back when she was angry, so she said something unpleasant. Please don't
take it to heart, okay? Dad is on your side. "

"Teresa, how can I not take these words to heart? Besides, mom was right. It's true that I haven't done
many things well. I haven't met your parents' requirements in many aspects. Sometimes I feel a little
tired.

But of course I won't hate them for what your parents said. After all, they are elders. "



"Well, you are good enough. I know you have been very tired recently. So, thank you, Zed. "

Zed turned around and held Teresa in his arms. He rested his chin on Teresa's head and said, "You
must be tired too."

"Nothing. "

Teresa and Zed leaned against the window and intimated with each other for a while.

These days, in order not to make Teresa worry about him, Zed refused all the social engagements.
Since Zed was the son-in-law of An family, people in the company could not say anything more.

Zed got off work as soon as possible every day and spent more time with Teresa and his daughter. It
seemed that Zed really felt that this kind of life was indeed the best life, the calmest life.

It had to be said that it was also the life that Zed yearned for most.

After taking a shower, Teresa lay in Zed's arms and fell asleep. The two of them had their own
thoughts, but they also wanted to make the family better.

Zed knew why Connie did this to him, because Sally's matter had not passed in Connie's heart. In
Zed's opinion, he had done not good enough.

Of course he knew clearly that he was wrong in the matter between him and Sally. He had the woman
he loved, but he still couldn't resist the temptation of other women. This was not a simple mental
infidelity, but a physical infidelity.

No matter how charming Sally was, things wouldn't have developed to this extent if he hadn't been so
willful. At the thought of the money that Sally and Charles conspired to cheat him, Zed felt himself a
coward.



Zed swore to himself that he must revenge himself. Obviously, the two of them wanted to gain more
benefits from him. Now it seemed that it was not that simple, because Zed's reputation had already
been ruined by them. His life was disturbed by them and his life would certainly be troubled.

The more Zed thought about it, the more he felt sorry for Teresa. He loved her so much since
childhood.

Zed lowered his head and looked at Teresa, who seemed to be asleep, gently kissed her on the
forehead.

"Good night, Teresa."

In fact, Teresa, who was still awake, remained in Zed's arms. In fact, she was happy to receive such a
sweet and cautious kiss.

In fact, Teresa always believed that Zed loved her, and loved her deeply. It could be seen from his
small and subtle movements. Not only did Teresa want herself to forget the relationship between Zed
and Sally, she also wanted herself to be surer that he loved her.

Although the fact that Zed had sex with another woman was a knot in Teresa's heart and she could
never forget it. However, for this family, for her daughter, for Zed, and for herself, Teresa persuaded
herself again and again to let go of all the things related to Zed and Sally, and forget those things that
could not be considered carefully. She realized that she had to let it go and untie the knot in her heart.

In the morning, Sophia was awakened by Victor's gentle kiss.

"HMM..."

Sophia murmured in a low voice.

Feeling that his lips had left her, Sophia opened her eyes slightly.



What she saw was Victor's red face and serious look.

"Don't make the sound like that... I can't stand it anymore in this morning. "

Hearing what he said in the morning, Sophia blushed.

Sophia put her hand on his neck with a smile, which made Victor feel that the happiness of every day
was just like this.

Victor quietly took out a necklace from under the pillow, bent over and wore it around Sophia's neck
when Sophia didn't pay attention to him.

Feeling the coolness in her collarbone, Sophia reached out her hand to touch it. Seeing Victor smiling
at her, she lowered her head with surprise in her eyes.

"Wow..." Sophia couldn't help but exclaim, "Victor, this necklace is awesome! It is so beautiful! "

"Of course, when did your husband make a mistake? "

"But why did you suddenly give me this? "

Looking at the woman in front of him, Victor couldn't help but sigh that how could this woman forget her
own birthday? What was in her mind?

Victor smiled and said, "Isn't the daily surprise good?"

Sophia still didn't remember that today was her birthday. She smiled and said, "If I have such a surprise
every day, won't I giggle to be silly every day?"

Victor lowered his body again, he whispered in her ear, "Happy birthday, Sophia."



Hearing Victor's words, she realized that today was her birthday. She smiled at Victor and said, "Thank
you! "

With a smile, Victor tapped Sophia's head and said dotingly, "Silly girl, you even forgot your birthday.
What's in your mind? ...

Go back to sleep. I'll make breakfast for you downstairs. "

"All right. "

Looking at the back of Victor who stood up and Sophia touched the necklace, she felt very happy.

After having the breakfast made by Victor, Victor returned to Xiao family with Luis and Sophia.

In the car, Victor told Sophia that Christopher wanted to have a meal with his family because of her
birthday. Of course, his parents returned to Xiao family.

Sophia was deeply touched, because she did have a feeling of being valued in Xiao family, whether it
was Victor, Christopher, or Victor's parents.

Victor postponed all the company's schedule today.

As soon as they arrived at Xiao family's house, Victor parked his car in the yard and saw Christopher,
his parents and the servants standing at the door, looking at them with a smile.

Victor got out of the car and opened the door for Sophia. Sophia got off the car with Luis in her arms
when Victor asked her be careful in a low voice.

"Grandpa, dad and mom."

Hearing the response of Christopher and his parents, Sophia smiled with satisfaction.



"Happy Birthday! Sophia. "

Hearing the blessing from her family, Sophia held back the tears and said, "Thank you. You are
laborious."

Christopher smiled and touched Sophia's head.

"I want to see if Luis has grown up? Christopher held Luis in his arms from Sophia's arms.

"Your little face is getting fatter and rounder. You are so cute."

Christopher entered the house with Luis in his arms.

Consuela held Sophia's hand and patted it gently.

Victor, on the other hand, followed Sophia. Now he was like a child who had fallen out of favor, but he
felt happy just like Sophia.

There was already someone sitting at the table in the living room. It was a little unexpected for Sophia.

It was Jian family's members. Sophia greeted them with a smile helpless.

"Hey, Sophia, you're finally here. We've been waiting for you here for a long time."

"Come and sit down."

Casper and Stellar asked Sophia to sit down anxiously.

Although Sophia felt a little embarrassed. The members of Jian family seemed to treat themselves as
the master of here, which made Sophia feel a little angry and shabby.



Sophia didn't take a seat in a hurry. Instead, she avoided the chair pulled out by Stellar, turned around
and helped the nanny put Luis on the child's chair. Then she sat next to Grace and Victor.

Before the meal, Christopher briefly expressed his wishes to Sophia and spoke out Sophia's status of
Xiao family.

Sophia thanked grandpa with a smile.

The meal seemed to be a happy one, but Sophia was unhappy. It was supposed to be a happy
birthday, after all, in the morning because of Victor, she was really in a good mood.

But now, because of this meal, it couldn't be said that it was just because of this meal. It was just
because of the appearance of Jian family's members, Sophia felt a little awkward, and what they had
done, and what they had said made Sophia feel sick.

Wasn't it obvious that they wanted to have a relationship with Xiao family?

After the meal, Sophia held Luis in her arms and sat next to Victor. She looked back to see if there was
anyone else beside her and got close to Victor.

"Why didn't anyone say that Jian family would come?"

Victor was also confused and said, "I don't know. Grandpa and mom called to tell me that only our
family members came. Did they come by themselves?"

Sophia thought to herself, 'Caspar really thinks highly of me.' Perhaps it was her birthday, so Xiao
family didn't mind the visit of Jian family too much.

After all, the current situation of Sophia was not completely out of the Casper family. Of course, she
would meet Caspar again in the future. It was not good to tear up this layer of paper.



"Victor, how's the company going recently?"

Casper took Peter to the place where Victor and Sophia sat.

"Don't worry about it. Everything is fine in the company."

"That's good, that's good."

Casper's ugly face made Sophia unable to restrain herself, but seeing Victor talking to him in such a
calm way, Sophia naturally felt that Caspar couldn't get any benefit here.

"I heard that the YS Group is working on some projects recently. Can I know what kind of project it is?"

"Many kinds of projects."

"I wonder if Jian family's company can help you? As the saying goes, keep the goodies within the
family. Do you think so, Sophia? "

When Sophia was about to shift her attention to Luis, she heard Caspar call her name. Obviously, he
did it on purpose.

"Ah?"

Sophia pretended not to hear it clearly and was about to prevaricate.

"Well, I will consider to assign some projects to your company. Besides, it's true that keep the goodies
within the family."

Victor said with a smile, not making things difficult for Sophia.

Of course, Casper didn't care what kind of response Sophia would have. As long as Victor said that,
Caspar's goal was achieved.



Sitting next to Casper, Peter also smiled happily because of Victor's answer.

"What the ancient people said is true."

After saying that, Casper and Peter turned around and stood beside Christopher, ready to flatter
Christopher.

"Victor, why did you..."

"It's okay. I know what I'm doing. I'll increase the intensity of investigation on the company of Jian
family. Don't worry."

"Okay." Sophia nodded her head. It turned out that Victor had been controlling
everything.
