Rebirth Reclaiming Her Self by Fleur Delacour

Chapter 308 BecEven More Unreasonable Michael sighed. “Despite the circumstances, we must now collaborate with the Martinez Family.” If it weren't for the current downturn and the need for assistance in the Sanders Family’s company, we wouldn't have arranged a blind date for Christopher and Sophia. Moreover, Teresa was the one who initially suggested that Sophia and Christopher meet.

Teresa continued, “I understand the importance of cooperating with the Martinez Family. That was why | proposed that their daughter and our son spend ttogether in the first. place.

But | didn’t expect that the initially well-behaved Sophia would act this way. Christopher has always been a kind- hearted child. If we always allow her to have her way, | fear she may beceven more unreasonable toward Christopher in the future...” No matter how she put it, her main concern was Christopher's future..

When Michael heard Teresa's words, his demeanor gradually softened. “I will discuss this matter with the Martinez Family. As for Christopher, let him stay at hfor now,” he spoke gently.

Meanwhile, in the Martinez Residence, Sophia had been waiting for Christopher and apologize.

She even changed her outfits several times.

t in c Giving Sophia a loving yet powerless look, Melissa asked, “Wanting to see Christopher so bad, huh?” Sophia pursed her lips. “No, | have no desire to see him at all.” Although she claimed she didn’t want to see him, she already glanced toward the door multiple times.

Upon seeing this, Melissa smiled. “Oh, quit hiding your true feelings from me. Your acting skills are not convincing at all.” The mother-and-daughter dub conversed for a while when they saw Carlos suddenly descend from the study.

“The Sanders Family has responded. They said that since Christopher isn’t at fault in this matter, they won't apologize. In addition, he wants you to apologize to Fanny!” 1/4 Sophia's expression instantly froze, whereas Melissa questioned in confusion, “How dare they treat Sophia like this? Christopher is still persistently getting in contact with his ex-girlfriend. Sophia simply wanted him to apologize and make amends, yet he dares to decline?!” Upon hearing Melissa's words, Sophia felt uneasy at the thought of Christopher once again siding with Fanny. Her pain intensified, and her eyes welled up with tears as she ascended the stairs.

“Darling, look at how distressed our daughter is. As | see it, it's best not to proceed with this arranged marriage with the Sanders Family!” Carlos approached her side and consoled her, “We have cthis far in the preparations. It would be unwise to cancel it now.” “But Sophia...” Melissa was genuinely concerned that Christopher would mistreat Sophia in the future.

“It’s simple to make the Sanders Family yield. We will gather evidence that Christopher is still keeping in touch and hooking up with that woman. Then, we will confront the Sanders Family with it.” Upon hearing that, Melissa finally felt somewhat reassured. No matter what, they needed to make Christopher acknowledge his mistakes and promise not to repeat them. “Let’s proceed as you suggest.” “Our daughter seems to genuinely like Christopher. | never would have guessed he would behave this way. | wouldn't have allowed Sophia to meet him if | had known this would happen. | can’t believe a decent-looking young man like him is still so intimate with his ex- girlfriend. It's simply outrageous!” As for Sophia, she was unaware of her parents’ intentions. She wept as soon as she returned. to her room.

After crying for a while, she immediately called Christopher.

Once the call was connected, Sophia questioned with a whiny tone, “Why didn’t you cto apologize?” Christopher was already feeling frustrated about being grounded by his father. At first, he wanted to argue upon hearing Sophia's voice. However, he was at a loss for words when he heard her cry.

“Since you refuse to cover and apologize, my parents are discussing canceling our engagement now. What will happen to your family then?” Sophia's voice still sounded tearful.

2/4 Christopher responded unemotionally, “My dad forbidsto go. We aren't at fault in this matter.” Since he had never witnessed Sophia cry before, he felt a bit uneasy.

“It's me. It was my fault, okay? But even if | must apologize, | will only apologize to you. Do not expectto apologize to Fanny.” Sophia cried. Although it wasn’t particularly despairing, it sounded very sorrowful.

“If you want to apologize to me, you must cto my house and apologize properly.” With these words, Christopher immediately hung up the phone.

Sophia cried for a while before heading downstairs.

When her mother saw her coming down, she asked with a smile, “Sophia, is there anything you would like to eat today? I will cook for you.” Her eyes were still slightly teary as she shook her head. “I don’t feel like eating.” “Oh, that won't do. Or is there somewhere you want to go today? | will accompany you.” Once again, Sophia shook her head. “I want to apologize to Christopher in person,” she said listlessly.

Just as Melissa showed a surprised expression, she continued, “It was indeed wrong ofto block Fanny without his consent.” “Apologize? Why should you apologize? You are our precious daughter. He was the one who got too intimate with his ex-girlfriend. It’s right for you to block his ex-girlfriend. Don’t let him manipulate you. You did nothing wrong.” “But...” Sophia hesitated again.

“No ‘but. Your dad has already sent someone to investigate his ambiguous relationship with that woman. Don’t worry about this matter. Either they apologize, or we just call off your engagement.” “Call off our engagement? We can’t do that. Mom, | have been with him for so long.” During their ttogether, Sophia always regarded Christopher as her husband. Hence, she didn’t quite agree when she heard Melissa mention calling off the engagement.

It’s a bummer to break off the engagement now, isn’t it? After all, | finally found a partner with whom my parents and | are satisfied.

3/4 “Calling off the engagement is just one of the options. There is still another one, isn’t there? We won't call it off if they are willing to apologize. Just wait for the news from your father, With these words, Sophia could sense Melissa's intention.

“Mom, are you also going to shutin?” Christopher's Dad has grounded him at the Sanders Residence. | can’t believe Mom won't letout. either.

In an instant, Sophia felt that there were too many obstacles between her and Christopher to the point that Fanny was nothing compared to them.

Perhaps | shouldn't have chcrying and told Mom and Dad about this matter in the first place.

At this moment, Sophia felt a slight sense of regret.

Both the Sanders Family and the Martinez Family locked their children in as they waited for the other to compromise. Just then, Sophia’s friend, Ava Collier, contacted her and asked about Fanny.

“Sophia, did you really helpfind my lifesaver?” “Yes, but arranging a meeting with her may take a few days. | have sthings going on over here.” Instantly sensing the moodiness in Sophia’s voice, Ava asked, “What's going on? What's her name?” “It's nothing, just sfamily matters. By the way, her nis Angela Kins. She is Jonathan's. wife. I'll contact you later when | have tto arrange a meeting for you to meet and thank her properly.” After Ava hung up the phone, an old man bowed beside her and asked, “We have identified Miss Angela Kins’ information.” Angela’s basic information appeared before Ava in just a minute or two.
