"Mom, look, Evander always gets so happy when you praise him!"

Sophia playfully bumped her mother’s shoulder, while Juliana shot her a silent glance before turning back to watch TV.

When did she ever compliment him? It was clearly her daughter putting words into her mouth.

But it’s better to have this kind of nature than those who say one thing to your face and another behind your back.

Sighing inwardly, Juliana thought, aside from her ordinary family background, her daughter was excellent in every way, but Evander’s mother...

Thinking of her grandchild being born with the label of a private child, Juliana sighed again.

"Mom, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Should Evander check on you?" Sophia asked with concern, as Juliana turned to her, a bit annoyed, "I’m a doctor myself!"

Sophia...

Smacked her lips and popped a dried plum into her mouth.

After washing the fish clean, Evander had just sat down when Sophia shooed him away.

Pulling Evander up from the sofa, she pushed him towards the door, "Hurry up and leave, it’s getting late, Mom and I are going to bed."

Evander found her actions amusing and exasperating, he only wanted to sit down for a bit and wasn’t planning on staying...

"Alright, alright, I’m leaving, I’ll come pick you up in the morning," Evander relented as he was pushed to the door, putting on his shoes, he said to Juliana standing by the sofa, "Mom, I’m heading out, you and Sophia get some rest."

"Okay, drive safely," Juliana replied politely, but as soon as Sophia shut the door behind him, her face turned stern.

"Sophia, tell me honestly, what’s going on here?"

Sophia slowly walked back, feigning ignorance, "What’s going on?"

Seeing her daughter sit on the sofa, Juliana turned back to face her, looking down seriously, "I’m talking about you moving back here! Did Evander’s mother talk to you again?"

Having dealt with Violet so many times, Juliana already knew her routine, it was common for her to have monthly talks, and the last time Violet showed up, Juliana drove her away directly!

I haven’t even gone to find you about your son’s responsibility for my daughter’s pregnancy, she had retorted, leaving Violet too flustered to respond.

Sophia dug into the bag of dried plums again, popping one into her mouth, smiling evasively, "No, why would his mom look for me?"

Juliana drew in a deep breath, then sat back down on the sofa, holding her daughter’s arm as she earnestly said, "Sophia, it’s not that I’m old-fashioned, but in two months the child will be born, and Evander’s mother still refuses to accept you. Do you want my grandchild to be pointed at behind his back as a private child from birth?"

At the mention of this, Sophia felt a pang of guilt, but, "Evander said that we’d get the marriage certificate before the baby is born."

Again with this!

Juliana turned her head in anger, sighing in frustration, "Fine, you’re a grown woman, I won’t interfere anymore. Do what you want, just don’t regret it later!"

With that, Juliana got up and went to her bedroom, leaving Sophia with a dried plum halfway to her lips, pursing them and blinking a few times.

After watching TV for a while, Sophia also headed to her room, sending a text to Evander before sleeping.

... Mom’s upset again, still about that...
