Chapter 201

Emmett dialed Sophia’s number, and after a few rings, Sophia’s voice came through, “Emmett, what’s

up?”

“Mom, do you remember the pastry shop Aiden and Alex are crazy about? I’m thinking of grabbing

some stuff from there”

“No need, I’m already here” Sophia chuckled, “I bumped into that lady we met here last time, we’re

having a chat. Are you coming over?”

Emmett glanced at Clara, “Nah, you go ahead and buy, we’ll head straight home to be with the kids.”

“Alright! Alex got a perfect score in the exam today, and he is very happy at home! You should give him

a good compliment after you go back” “Ok.”

After hanging up, Clara asked, “Alex got a perfect score?”

“That’s right! Aiden was also doing a great job, being able to tutor Alex so well.” Clara sighed, “To be

fair, Alex is pretty sharp too, he’s just not as focused and hardworking as Aiden. Alex gets distracted by

shiny new things.”

“Yeah, but Alex is a pro at handling people. Look how he’s got my mom wrapped around his little finger,

she hardly has any time for Aiden anymore.”

“Alex sure knows how to turn on the charm”

“He’s good at playing up his strengths, it’s a talent. In the business world, it’s not always the ones with

good grades or impressive academics who excel in business. On the contrary, kids like Alex, who are

better at handling relationships.”

At this assessment, Clara could only chuckle.

She hadn’t thought that far

All she knew was that, from a young age, Alex was a bigger handful than most kids, often giving her a

headache.

“Let’s drop it. With mom out, you can have some quality time with the kids when we get home.”

“Sounds good, let’s head back.”

Meanwhile, at the pastry shop, Sophia and Leah were having a chat.

“Hey, didn’t think I’d run into you here. You must be crazy about the pastries here too?”

“My son loves them, so I’m here pretty often.”

Sophia nodded, “Your son must be pretty lucky to have a mom like you. My son’s wife barely gives a

thought to the kids. I mean, she’s their stepmom, how much can she really care, right?”

On hearing this, Leah quickly agreed, “Yeah, a stepmom is no real mom. If she has her own kids, she’ll

care even less for the others.”

“Sigh, but my son is head over heels for her, what can I do? I really wanted to suggest he gets back

with the kids’ real mom, but… he’s stubborn as a mule, no convincing him.”

Sophia sighed inwardly, feeling helpless to protect her grandkids. She didn’t want to butt in Emmett and

Clara’s business too much.

But she had no choice now! She saw Emmett was all wrapped up in Clara, and if this continues, Clara

might get big-headed, and possibly change her attitude towards the kids!

This kind of thing will last forever, and the children will be by her side for the rest of their lives! Clara,

the stepmother, would definitely become more arrogant
