Chapter 69
Because Evelyn was not around, the meal was extremely harmonious this time.
After dinner, the family chatted and laughed in the living room for a while before going upstairs to rest.
Lucas and Timothy sent Sophie back to her room. She said goodnight to them before entering.
bio was in a very goo
mood when she returned to her room. Her family was very considerate, and new clothes had already been prepared in the wardrobe.
She took a shower and changed her clothes. When she came out, she felt refreshed.
‘No wonder Evelyn always wanted this room. Even the bathroom is full of smart devices, Sophie thought.
There was also a Jacuzzi in it, which could automatically play music and movies.
This was really a room designed by young people.
A servant brought over some milk before bed. Sophie carried the milk to the balcony to enjoy the breeze.
“I’m finally home,” Sophie said to herself. Looking at the lights at the edge of the sea in the distance, Sophie’s eyes were unbelievably gentle.
All of this was thanks to Night, Night.
If it weren’t for Night, Sophie wouldn’t have married the Nicholls family. Even if she later found out that the Dawson family people were her family, it might be very difficult to see
them.
It was all because Night had been secretly helping her investigate and plan.
However, Night had never shared the joy with Sophie and wanted her to repay him.
She was really lucky to have met such a good person in her life.

Chapter 69
After drinking the milk, Sophie returned to her room and turned on the computer.
This was her own room. She didn’t need to hide anymore.
She directly entered the hacker network and happened to see that Night was also online.
In the past, she had been in contact with Night quite frequently. However, after marrying into the Nicholls family, she did not know if Night was deliberately avoiding suspicion, but the number of times he contacted her online had decreased. It had been a long time since he had shown that he was online so openly like today.
Sophie was in a good mood. She immediately greeted Night, [Night, why are you online today?]
Not long after, the other party replied, [I should ask you the same question. Why do you have time to go online today? Aren’t you afraid that your husband will suspect you?]
Sophie could not help but pout and reply, [What am I afraid of? He can’t see. Besides, I’ve already returned to the Dawson family today!]
She still could not suppress her joy and shared it with Night.
[Really? Then congratulations, you’ve reunited with your family.] Night’s tone was still calm.
Sophie could not help but frown. [Night. You’re so powerful. Did you already know it?]
Otherwise, why was he so calm?

Night, who sat in front of the computer screen looked at the screen with a deep gaze.
‘This little girl is quite sensitive,’ he thought.
[I just guessed it. No one would disown their own daughter,] Night‘ replied..
Sophie replied, [Alright.]
Then, Sophie continued typing on the keyboard. [I thought that I would break off the engagement with Roger today, but I didn’t expect it to fail.]
Sophie didn’t have anyone who could listen to her innermost thoughts, so she could only complain to Night.

Night seemed to pause for a moment before replying. [Do you really want to break off the engagement with Roger?]
Sophie hesitated for a moment before replying. [After all, we don’t have any feelings for each other. I only married him for the sake of escaping from the Bourn family. Now that I’m back in my own home, it’s normal to break off the engagement. After all, we didn’t do anything like a couple.]
After sending this message, the other party fell silent for a long time.
Sophie thought that Night had gone offline. She looked at his profile picture and could not help but ask, [Night? Are you still there?]
Night replied, [I’m still there. You’re right. It’s indeed normal to break off the engagement.]
Sophie pursed her lips slightly and guessed that Night might not know how to reply to her.
She took a deep breath and replied, [But my grandfather thinks very highly of him. I also think that he’s a good person. After all, his condition in the Nicholls family isn’t good either. If I leave him, he and his mother will be quite pitiful. Even if I have to leave, I hope to help him live a better life. It can be considered repaying him for bringing me out of the Bourn family.]
Her words were filled with sincerity.
Her words made Night, who had been a little frustrated, gradually calm down.
“At least you have a conscience,” Roger, who was sitting in front of the computer, muttered.
Then, he sent a message, [The Nicholls family is the head of the top ten families. If Clifford wants to find a husband for you, the Nicholls family’s man is definitely the first choice. That’s why he supports it.]
Sophie sent an emoji of agreement. [That’s right. If I have to get married, the Nicholls. family’s man is indeed a good choice. Anyway, I can marry anyone. At least I don’t hate Roger.]
Her calm words made Roger frown.
Although it was a good thing that she didn’t hate him, what did she mean by marrying.

anyone?
After thinking for a moment, Roger replied, [You’re easy to deal with. Most women would want to marry the person they love, right?]
Speaking of love again, Sophie thought for a moment and replied, [Night, to be honest, I’ve never loved anyone before. I don’t know what it feels like.]
When she was in the welfare institute, she felt that the dean’s kindness to them was love. When she was in the Bourn family, she had always wanted to obtain the love of Russell. However, there was nothing. All she got was hypocrisy and exploitation.
In the past ten years, she had been locked up in the Bourn family. She was already numb to it and did not have any desire for other people’s feelings. She also did not have the
chance to love others.
Sophie sent, [My brother also said today that gratitude is not love, but my only feeling for Roger now is gratitude. I’m grateful that he helped me escape the Bourn family, but if this gratitude is compared to yours, I’m even more grateful to you. If it weren’t for you, I might only be able to stay in the Bourn family for the rest of my life.]
She was grateful to Night from the bottom of her heart. If it weren’t for him, she would definitely have fled overseas before she got married. Even if she escaped the control of the Bourn family people, it would be difficult for her to meet her family.
She would remember this kindness for the rest of her life.
However, for some reason, Night did not reply for a long time.
Sophie did not know if she had said too much that made Night feel upset. She could only send a cute emoji over. [Night, aren’t you also in Habourland? Let’s take the time to meet. I really want to thank you in person.]
Roger had never seen her begging so cutely.
Although his heart softened, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
He was the one who was always by her side, but she had never been so dependent on him, yet she was so close to Night.

Even her gratitude towards Night exceeded Roger’s.
Thinking of this, Roger felt upset.
After typing a few simple words, he replied, [Wait for the right time.]
When Sophie saw these words, she could not help but feel a little speechless and reply, [Night, can you not speak like this at the drop of a hat? You’re being so mysterious.]
Sophie did not notice that when she replied to Night, the corners of her mouth would unconsciously curl into a smile.
Night rolled his eyes and replied, [You’re getting more and more impudent recently.]
Sophie teased, [You’re not much older than me, right?]
