| couldn’t hold back any longer, swiftly pushing Soren’s bowl toward him to cut him off. “That's enough! Hurry up
and eat your food.
“Please stop asking him any more questions, you two. | know what I'm doing, and | promise I'll be very careful
before making any decisions.”
| stopped both sides from speaking further so | could finish my lunch in peace.
My aunt also realized that they were no match for Soren, even if they worked together.
Thus, they quickly took the hint and said, “Right. You two hurry up and finish your food before it gets cold.”
Phew...
I glanced at Soren, secretly letting out a sigh of relief before lowering my head to continue eating.
Soren looked attoo, but his eyes held amusement, not nervousness. After all, a man like him must have
faced far worse situations than that one, which was why he always seemed so confident, composed, and in
complete control.
| doubted anything could truly throw him off balance at this point.

Once Soren finished eating, he was about to leave.
| wanted to stand up to see him off, but he quickly helddown. “Just sit down and rest. Remember the
doctor’s orders-don’t push yourself.”
| pressed my lips together and looked at him. “Thank you for helpingtoday. | really appreciate it.”
“Are you still going to treatlike a stranger?” Soren replied in a low voice, his eyes warm.
“Mr. Kenway'’s leaving now, Grandma, Aunt Sarah,” | turned to the sofa and reminded them.
My aunt immediately stood up to see him off. “Mr. Kenway, we really appreciate everything you've done for Tay-
Tay these past two days.
“She’s always had a tendency to hide her troubles, so we didn’t even know she had injured herself.”
“She didn’t want you two to worry, especially Grandma Edna, since she just got out of the hospital,” Soren
replied gently, his demeanor refined.
My grandmother tried to stand as well, but Soren stopped her.
After a final round of polite exchanges, Soren finally left.
As soon as he was gone, my aunt turned to me, and | knew the interrogation was about to begin.
To my surprise, the first thing she said was, “Just how tall is he? 6'6“?"
| was momentarily stunned before answering, “I... I've never asked him. But he’s definitely at least 6'2".”
Clearly, Soren’s charm was lethal to women of all ages, as my aunt had been “enchanted” too.
“6'2"? No wonder | had to tilt my head up to talk to him. He's so handsome, and his presence is just incredible.”
My aunt was full of praise, ready to gossip, but my grandmother interrupted with a slightly stern remark. “You're
going completely off-topic.”

My aunt's face froze in embarrassment.
My grandmother turned to me, her voice serious. “Tay-Tay what exactly do you think you're doing with Soren?
“Your annulment isn’t even finalized yet, and you're already so close to him. If word gets out, the public will be
ruthless.”
| stirred my food absentmindedly, my appetite gone.
With my head down, | answered, “I know there's a clear gap between us, and I've turned him down multiple
times, but... he’s just been so good to me.”

My grandmother sighed suddenly. “I can’t blyou. A man like him... looks, education, demeanor, upbringing...
He truly is impeccable in every way...”
My aunt nodded repeatedly. “Exactly! And the most important thing here is that he’s actively pursuing you. |
know how hard it is for you to stay indifferent to his advances.”
My grandmother shot my aunt another sharp look, silencing her.
Meanwhile, | remained silent, not knowing how to respond
| had been trying so hard to hold myself back. But it was incredibly difficult to resist a man like Soren, especially
for someone like me, desperate to be loved.
The living room fell silent before my grandmother’s concerned voice echoed again. “The issue isn’t just our
family backgrounds, but also how messy your own family is...
“Harry's in prison, your civil partnership is a complete scandal, then there’s Cameron and the rest of the
Kennedys... None of them will let you live your life freely.
“The real concern is that Soren might end up dragged into this mess if you two end up together.
“Can you really handle the pressure on your conscience, even if he doesn’t mind it?”
