Falling For My “Disabled” Wife by Veronica Winifred

Chapter 37 

Damian saw that Thomas was unable to speak and quickly smiled to defuse the situation, saying, “Thomas hasn’t met her yet. This is Roger’s wife, Sophie.” 

Without waiting for Thomas to respond, Sophie said, “We met during the day at the restaurant. Thomas was just having dinner with his friends and ran into us. He came over to greet us.” 

Damian, observing the situation, glanced at Thomas and asked, “You’ve met before?” He thought, “How come Thomas never mentioned it?‘ 

Thomas nodded and said, “Yes. We did meet during the day.” 

It was just that at that time, he didn’t expect Sophie to be so sharp–tongued. But he didn’t say that. He just smiled mischievously. “Since Roger lost his eyesight, he rarely goes out for meals. I happened to run into him and his wife at the restaurant, so I went over to say hello out of curiosity.” 

Norman, upon hearing that Sophie went out for dinner with Roger, brightened up. “Sophie, you went out for dinner with Roger?” 

Sophie immediately smiled. “Yes. It’s a newly opened restaurant, and I wanted Roger to try it.” 

“He went out to have dinner with you?” Norman’s eyes showed some disbelief. 

“Yes.” Sophie blinked suspiciously. “Is there a problem?” 

Although Roger had mentioned that he rarely went out for meals, Norman shouldn’t be so shocked. 

Norman laughed heartily. “Good. You did well. The last time Roger went out for dinner was three years ago. Back then, I had to force him to accompany me to have dinner outside. Now, he actually went out with you. Indeed, having a wife makes a difference. Roger, go out more in the future. I 

support you.” 

Since Roger lost his eyesight, his personality became peculiar. Apart from his daily walks, he rarely socialized, let alone went out for leisure. Norman thought Roger was not normal anymore. Now, Roger was married and actually took his wife out for dinner. It was like a rare event. 

“Three years ago… Sophie finally understood what surprised Norman. She thought, ‘Is it normal for a person not to go out for meals for three years?‘ 

Roger nodded slightly and said, “Understood, Grandpa. With Sophie by my side, I’ll go out more.” 

Norman nodded contentedly. 

Jasmine, on the side, was now stunned. Just a moment ago, she was about to reprimand them for taking too many chicken wings. How come Norman was now praising them instead?

“Norman, that’s not what we were talking about…” Jasmine wanted to correct the topic. 

But Norman frowned. “Alright. Let’s eat. It’s just a plate of chicken wings, ask the chef to make another one. If they like to eat chicken wings, make a bit more next time. Besides, there is still a lot on this plate, and you’re a grown–up. Don’t be so petty. Let’s eat.” 

No one dared to answer back. Norman’s words made both Jasmine and Thomas feel a bit awkward. 

Damian couldn’t help but sigh. Thomas was supposed to receive praise from Norman today for bringing good news. Instead, Thomas was continuously mocked by Rebecca and overshadowed by Sophie and Roger. Damian couldn’t help but cast a slightly dark look at Sophie. He thought, “What she did was just to have a meal with Roger. How does it seem like her achievement surpasses Thomas’s?‘ His eyes narrowed, and he suddenly realized Norman seemed to care a lot about Roger. 

Thomas should have had a happy dinner, but now it turned into an awkward situation. Even if Thomas wanted to speak again, he adhered to the family tradition and remained silent during dinner. Only Sophie and Roger were exceptions. This made him involuntarily glance at Sophie again. He had only been away for a few days. He thought, ‘How did Roger’s family dynamics change so much with Sophie’s arrival? What means did she use?‘ 

After dinner, Roger and Sophie went upstairs together. 

Sophie entered the room and couldn’t help but chuckle. She said, “Your family is really interesting. It looks like Damian’s branch is the most glorious, but in terms of scheming, Jasmine can’t beat Rebecca. Thomas is also interesting. He seems successful in his career, liked by Norman, but he even wants to protect a plate of chicken wings. How childish.” 

The fact that these people could gather together was truly amazing. 

Roger coldly smiled. “Indeed, interesting.” He didn’t originally plan to eat chicken wings, but today, he wanted to mess with Thomas’s food. Unexpectedly, Thomas fell into the trap. 

Moreover, Sophie’s performance didn’t disappoint Roger. With a few decent words, she managed to embarrass Thomas. 

“I originally planned to just taste two pieces. But when I saw his appearance, I couldn’t help but eat a few more. Jasmine even stared at me later, making me enjoy it even more.” Sophie didn’t care how Jasmine looked at her. The more Jasmine stared, the more delicious the wings became. 

Sophie raised her chin in a proud way, and Roger found her very cute. “If you like it, eat more.” 

Looking at Roger, Sophie, with a proud smile, said, “It’s not about liking to eat. I want to seek fairness. From now on, no one in this house will have exclusive dishes.” 

She had experienced enough in the Bourn family and didn’t want Roger to go through the same as she did in her family. She was adopted into the Bourn family, but he wasn’t. He was Norman’s biological grandson. Among the three grandchildren, there shouldn’t be favoritism.

Facing the indignant Sophie, Roger couldn’t help but appreciate her more. “You’re right.” 

Sophie, being approved, smiled triumphantly. “From now on, tell me what you want to eat, and I’ll have the chef make it.” 

Being pampered by her, Roger smiled. “Okay.” 

The night arrived. Sophie leaned against the bedside and opened her computer. Seeing that Night had sent her some investigation information about the Dawson family, she had mixed feelings. 

After contemplating for a while, she opened the chat box and left a message for Night. She sent, [Night, help me investigate Evelyn again. If she’s not from the Dawson family, I need to find out her background.] If Sophie were to reclaim her position, she needed to know who had taken her place. 

She thought that Night might be sleeping at this time. But unexpectedly, he replied immediately. [Already looking into it.] 

Sophie’s heart couldn’t help but warm slightly. Night was truly good to her. Before she could speak, he had already thought of it for her. 

If Sophie hadn’t clung to Night on the hacker forum, she might have died in the Bourn family a long time ago. 

Night knew about her situation and provided her with a lot of study materials, which not only improved her hacking skills but also taught her about investments, finance, and design. Almost everything she learned was taught by him. He even helped Sophie find a way to leave the Bourn family. If it weren’t for him, Sophie might have been confined to the Bourn family for the rest of her life. 

Sophie sent, [Night, thank you so much. If it weren’t for you, I probably wouldn’t have escaped the Bourn family in my lifetime. Let’s meet when I can move freely.]
