"Those old matters, Mr. Davis, I don't need your reminders."
Sophie Smith didn't know what she was angry about. Indeed, what Nolan Davis said was true. It wasn't that she didn't want to admit it, or that she didn't care. She just knew that Asher Land wouldn't betray her without reason.
She thought that between them, they could choose to trust each other unconditionally.
Nolan Davis sighed softly and stood up as well.
"I'm sorry."
This apology left her a bit at a loss. Nolan Davis hadn't done anything wrong. On the contrary, over these years, he had been helping and taking care of her and Alexander. Speaking to him in that tone seemed somewhat unforgivable.
Nolan Davis knew what kind of person she was. She was too kind, afraid of hurting others.
So now, she must be feeling remorseful and guilty.
"Little Sophie, you haven't done anything horrendous to me, so please don't let me see you look guilty, alright?" Nolan Davis seemed to be helping her lighten her mental burden.
