Sophia immediately raised her hand. “Anyway, I just want to say that besides not having a good family background,
I also have many bad habits…”
However, Kate’s grasp on Sophia’s hand tightened. “Little girl, I’m not trying to take advantage of you. I just like you
for being yourself, so don’t overthink about it.”
How could Sophia not overthink it when Old Mrs. Blackwell offered to play the role of her grandmother?
Without discussing with Sophia, Kate instructed the Third Blackwell Family, “She’ll be under the Third Blackwell
Family, then. Since Fabian is about Sophia’s age, they’ll probably have similar topics to talk about.”
Henry Blackwell of the Third Blackwell Family immediately agreed while his wife chimed in as well, “Gosh, I’ve
always wanted a daughter, but I could never get one. I didn’t expect God to finally give us a daughter today!”
Sophia couldn’t help but chuckle. Is this even real?
Did they just force a new set of parents upon me?
A couple from a family with a good background suddenly became her godparents. The thought of that was just
unrealistic.
Third Mrs. Blackwell looked young and friendly as she walked over to pat Sophia’s head. “You’ve probably suffered a
lot in the past.”
Sophia blinked and didn’t know how to react.
If she were to reject the Blackwells, they would feel humiliated, and it would make her look ignorant.

However, she didn’t feel comfortable being on their receiving end.
How did they suddenly become a family?
This wasn’t in Sophia’s plan at all.
Then, Kate gave the servant next to her a look, and the servant immediately went to retrieve a box.
Taking the box over, Kate turned around slightly toward Sophia. “Sophia, this is a gift that I’ve prepared for you for
our first meeting. We shall be a family in the future.”
Confused, Sophia’s arms flailed around when she realized that Kate was giving her yet another gift. “No, no, I can’t
accept that. The present that you’ve given me previously was already precious enough and I really—”
“Hey.” Kate held Sophia’s hand. “Why are you rejecting a gift from your grandma? We’ll be a family from now on,
so you don’t have to be so polite and distant anymore.”
When the servant helped Sophia open the box, she saw a purple bangle made of unknown material.
However, Sophia knew that a gift from Kate meant that it was definitely not cheap.
Then, Kate took the bangle and wore it on Sophia’s wrist, after which the latter looked like she was in a
predicament as she stared at the bangle on her wrist.
It was really ironic how the Constances had done all that they could to kick her out, but the Blackwells did all they
could to get her in.
Third Mrs. Blackwell spoke up as well, “Just keep it. It’s your grandma’s goodwill anyway. You don’t have to be so
distant with us since you’re one of the Blackwells now.”
Sophia didn’t know if she wanted to laugh or cry at that.
However, the Blackwells ignored her facial expression and dragged her to the dining room to have a meal.
The Blackwell Residence’s dining room was huge. It was just like when they gathered to eat together at the
Constance Residence. Actually, this was way larger than the one at the Constance Residence.
Sophia didn’t recognize many of the people present, so she could only take her seat next to Kate.
She was initially a little bit hungry, but she had completely lost her appetite now.
Still, everyone from the Blackwells was happy as they started asking Sophia about her past but unanimously
avoided mentioning the Constance Family.
Sophia knew that these people were all wise people as they all spoke cautiously.
On the other hand, the man sat next to Sophia and would occasionally snort when she was speaking.
However, he didn’t look at Sophia both the times she turned to look at him. Disdain was evident on his face as if he
couldn’t stand looking at her.
Hence, Sophia looked away, for she didn’t believe that the Blackwells didn’t hear him as his snorts weren’t soft at
all.
