Chapter 1263 Sonia looked at Ariana, not sure where to start.
Adele was without a doubt a cute child, and Ariana had taken a shine to her.
But, in the grand schof things, Adele was Holden and Sadie's child. Ariana seemed to catch the drift but kept her gaze low in silence.
After a while, Sonia sighed and said, "Aria, have you mulled it over? If he's truly Theodore, it's been half a decade, and a lot has changed.

But after her tirade, a pang of sympathy for Ariana tempered her fury.
Tears welled up in Sonia's eyes as she said, "Aria, don't let this break you. Your well-being is paramount.
