Talina tucked her hair behind her ears and maintained her previous expression, while feeling somewhat concerned about Maria's abnormal condition.
Sofia can't be that scary, right?
Although it was a bit harsh, it was just verbal preaching. At least Talina had never seen Zofia hitting anyone.
Of course, as to whether it happens privately...you'll have to ask Maria.
"Wouldn't it be better to stay in Casimir? What on earth is there in those wild places that's worth visiting?"
"Does your friend... have their contact information? If so, a phone call will suffice. There's no need to travel all the way there. Ursus is very hostile to the Casimirs."
"You've lived there so long, I don't believe you don't know about this."
Talina smiled and said, "Some very important friends would be hurt if I left without saying goodbye. Some things are not convenient to talk about over the phone, and I can't say them for a while..."
"what about me?"
"Ah?"
Before Talina could finish her words, Zofia interrupted her.
"What about me? Didn't you leave me without telling me when you left a few years ago? You left without a word and disappeared without a trace..."
Doesn't this...hurt my heart?
Pursing her lips, Sofia changed from her previous strong attitude and actually looked a little aggrieved.
"Hey! I'm not! I didn't!"
The topic was suddenly shifted to another aspect, and Talina began to feel guilty like Maria, lowering her head and not daring to look at Sofia.
Admittedly, her action a few years ago was indeed lacking in planning, and she left Casimir with Penguin Logistics almost on a whim.
Due to her hasty departure and the remote location, Talina almost disappeared from the sight of Zofia and others.
To be honest, Zophia, who had not heard from Talina for a long time, was already prepared to erect a monument for Talina, and even allocated funds.
It's just that I haven't seen Talina's body, so I just kept the money and didn't touch it.
Now, Talina suddenly appeared again, just like she disappeared inexplicably a few years ago, her appearance was also inexplicable, and...
"Have you known about this for a long time?"
Turning her gaze to Maria, Zofia's eyes began to become strange.
Judging from Maria’s reaction, these two people must have met before, otherwise Maria would never have reacted like this.
In an instant, an uncomfortable feeling of being deceived filled Sofia's heart.
The person I care about left without saying goodbye, and my relative who grew up with me and is five years older than me hid things from me.
Zofia suddenly felt like a failure.
"I know, of course I know... but Talina only came to see me yesterday. I was just so happy that I forgot about it..."
Scratching her face embarrassedly, Maria explained to Sofia why she did not inform her.
She was really excited when Talina came to see her yesterday. The two of them chatted and cooked, and they had almost no free time to do anything else.
Later, because of the appointment with Talina the next day, Maria went to bed early to get enough sleep in case she was in a bad condition today.
As for Zofia...
I'm sorry, I can only say that Maria is still a little afraid of her aunt. After all, she grew up under oppression and is naturally inferior to her elders.
"Forget it, I don't really care about these things."
Waving her hand, Sofia signaled Maria not to say anything more.
She knew her niece very well. Although Maria could be naughty sometimes, she was a good child and would never lie.
So what the child said was most likely true. She was probably so happy that she forgot about herself.
Of course, Zofia would not let go of these two guys who made her sad so easily.
And there is still something that she cares about very much that has not been resolved!
"What were you doing in the room just now?!"
Acting like an elder, Sofia prepared to interrogate these two guys.
She had just seen it clearly. If she hadn't accidentally seen it, she might have...
Feeling her head inexplicably heavy, Zofia shook her head, trying to get rid of the illusion.
"Just a simple hug?"
Maria, who was nervous for a while, was almost choked to death by Sofia's question.
She really didn't expect that her aunt would make such a fuss just for such a thing.
"really?"
Looking at Maria suspiciously, Zofia looked at Talina again.
"Of course, what else can we do?"
Maria, with a clear conscience, turned the tables and took the dominant position.
this...
It seems to be true?
After calming down, Sofia recalled the details of what happened in Maria's room.
When I went in just now, it seemed that the two little guys were hugging each other, but I wasn't sure whether they kissed Sofia or not.
At that time, she was so focused on her niece's coming out that she ignored other details.
Now that I think about it, it seems that we didn’t kiss.
Besides, how mature can two little kids be?
“As long as I don’t do anything else.”
Thinking of this, Sofia felt relieved. She was worried that Maria would go down a path of no return.
Unlike her own branch family, Maria, as a child of the Linguang family, has actually been closely watched by some gossip reporters.
As a legendary family of Casimir, even though it has declined now, it is still a hot topic.
Once those young reporters caught the opportunity, Sofia couldn't imagine what kind of news would appear in the market.
Apart from anything else, this wave of public pressure will definitely have an impact on Maria, a child who is not very worldly-wise.
Combined with some other factors, Sofia has always been very strict about this matter.
But she was different. She was just a branch of Lin Guang, not a prominent family. Plus, she was now an adult and could make her own decisions, so...
Volume 4: Chapter 60: The War between Aunt and Nephew
Having no rights is not a bad thing, at least that's what Sofia feels now.
Since she is not as dazzling and noticeable as Lin Guang, the corresponding topic will be less popular and naturally fewer people will pay attention to her.
After several years of settling down, the fame he gained from the Knights' Competition is no longer as dazzling as it once was. Although he is considered a small star, people no longer use Lin Guang's identity to make a fuss.
Without any worries, Zofia is now a free person. Everything she does represents herself and has nothing to do with the Linguang family.
Whether it is glory or sin, it all belongs to her.
In other words, even if she came out, the reporters would have no choice but to report the story truthfully.
"Shocking! The top 16 of the World Championships came out publicly!"
At best, this kind of topic cannot bring any public opinion to the Lin Guang family.
As for Sofia herself...
She didn't care about these things. Instead, she wanted to tell the world about this matter and the relationship between her and Talina.
Of course, these are just expected things. Now Sofia’s goal is to develop a good relationship with Talina.
The two have been separated for many years, and they didn't have time to express their love back then. Now they meet suddenly, and if they confess their love rashly, they will probably be given the nice guy card.
Rather than being rejected, Sofia prefers to take things slowly. After all, the money she has now is enough to ensure financial freedom for the rest of her life. She doesn't have to work at all and has plenty of free time every day.
Taking a little time out to spend with Tarina wasn't a problem at all.
"Is that so? Then tell me when you leave so I can..."
"No need, Aunt Zofia... Ahem! Sister! I already have plans, so I won't bother you anymore!"
After correcting her own address in time, Talina politely declined Sofia's kindness.
She hasn't confessed the details of her situation in Ursus yet. If Zofia really goes with her, how will she explain to Tallulah and Froststar?
And the two unborn children.
At that time, for her own sake, Zofia will definitely tell Russell about this matter, then Tallulah and others will be exposed to the sun, and the news that she, the adopted daughter of the chairman of the Supervisory Commission, is "colluding" with the infected people will spread like wildfire.
By then, Russell's political opponents will certainly not give up this good opportunity.
Talina didn't want to cause trouble for Russell, so she didn't plan to bring anyone except Ravshini, who knew the inside story.
"Is that so? Think about it carefully. It's not safe for you to go alone. Although I'm not that powerful, I can still protect you."
Despite advising Talina, Zofia still did not give up her plan to follow Talina.
After finally catching the little girl, Sophia was worried that she would be thrown away by her again if she didn't follow her closely.
Just like before, Zofia knew how difficult it was to endure those days alone.
"Let's talk about it later. I haven't decided on a specific time yet. Let's see what happens later."
Seeing that Sofia was so clingy, Talina didn't know how to refuse, so she just made up an excuse and changed the subject.
Anyway, the secret between Talina and Frost Star must never be exposed. At that time, the worst that can happen is that they can just leave a letter and leave.
"Okay, and also, have you done your homework for today? Hmm!"
Zofia knew very well that she shouldn't dwell on this matter, so she didn't continue to question Talinbana, but turned around and questioned Mayiliya.
Anyway, Talina is back now, so I can just keep a close eye on her. But it's my niece...
It’s not reassuring at all!
"This...that...it's almost done, just needs a little polish...so..."
Maria was so confused that she never expected the fire to burn herself.
Faced with Sofia's questioning, she could only cover it up by talking around the issue, trying to get out of it in this way.
But Zofia's eyesight was so sharp that she could see at a glance that Maria was deceiving her.
“How much did you do?!!!”
"Hey! I'm halfway done! I'm going to do the other half tonight! Don't worry, aunt! I will definitely finish it! I will also make up for the ones I owed earlier!"
Under Zofia's pressure, Maria was forced to confess everything and pour out all her progress.
"Now hurry up and do it. I'm going to rest here for one night. I have something to tell Talina."
Hearing that Maria's progress was not too far behind, Zofia's anger subsided a lot. She immediately asked Maria to go upstairs to do her homework.
"Hey! But..."
Maria stood up anxiously, looked at Talina, then at Sofia, and what she wanted to express was self-evident.
It's rare for Talina to come back, and she doesn't want to miss this opportunity. It would have been fine if they had just met casually yesterday, but she had an appointment with Talina today!
In addition to Sofia's feelings for Talina, Maria doesn't want to be left behind!
"No buts! This is your mission! If you don't complete it within the agreed time, you should..."
"Sister Zofia, let Maria rest for a day today. I've already made an appointment with her. Can you please be lenient?"
The atmosphere at the scene became increasingly tense. In order to avoid a conflict between the two, Talina quickly came out to act as a peacemaker.
With Talina coming forward, Zofia didn't want to make too much trouble, so she simply went downstairs along the steps Talina gave her.
But no matter how things turn, Sofia still has to give the necessary warnings.
"Well... forget it today. Hand in the homework I gave you on time before tomorrow afternoon, otherwise..."
Having said that, Sofia glanced at Talina and said, "Talina is not allowed to come over here!"
"Eh?"
