Chapter 213 You Can’t Blame Me
Charley Hart had been sulking for a long time, staring eagerly toward the kitchen. She wanted several times to go over and tell Sofia Schneider what she wanted to eat.
But her stubborn pride made it impossible.
Finally, dinner was ready.
Charley thought she had sneakily moved over to the dining table, but when she saw the dishes laid out, her eyes widened like saucers.
She could hardly believe what she was seeing.
The dishes on the table were all her favorites.
Whether it was a coincidence or not, Charley was overjoyed.
Unable to hide the smile tugging at dig in.

hg hands itched to grab a fork and
This made her feel that running home from school in 102–degree heat was totally worth it!
Sofia placed the last dish on the table and couldn’t help but smile wryly at Charley’s excited expression.
She was just a little girl after all; her feelings were written all over her face, with no attempt to hide them.
Sofia actually thought Charley’s personality wasn’t so bad–at least she was straightforward.
Such a nature might cause some trouble when they didn’t see eye to eye, but once they got to know each other, it could be quite pleasant.
Everyone sat down at the table. Charley was just waiting for Old Mr. Hart to give the word so she could start eating.
However, Old Mr. Hart seemed to be deliberately teasing her and didn’t say a word.
Charley grew anxious, wringing her hands and looking desperately at her grandpa.

At last, Old Mr. Hart kindly picked up his fork and said, “Let’s eat.”
Charley immediately dug in.

Old Mr. Hart placed a piece of pork chop on his plate and didn’t hold back his praise. “Sofia, your cooking just keeps getting better.”
Sofia smiled and said, “Grandpa, as long as you like it, that’s what matters. It gives me more confidence to cook for you more often.”
His fondness for Sofia was evident.
After watching Charley taste every dish, he cleared his throat and said, “Charley, what do you think? Isn’t your sister–in–law’s cooking especially good?”
Charley “…”
In her heart, she was nodding furiously–Yes, yes, it’s so good! How can it be so delicious?
But on her face, she remained aloof, putting on a proud facade.
Sofia and Nathaniel Hart exchanged a glance. This little girl was still trying to act all high and mighty.
Honestly… she needed a bit of discipline.
Old Mr. Hart said, “Today, Sofia cooked this whole table of dishes for you because of me and Nathaniel. Aren’t you going to thank her?”
Charley was stunned.
She looked like she’d just been struck by lightning, nearly fuming with anger.
What was wrong with her grandpa? How could he be so unreasonable at his age?
Was it necessary to make things difficult for his own granddaughter?
She glanced over at Sofia, opened her mouth, and knew very well that if she didn’t obediently thank Sofia today, she wouldn’t enjoy this meal.
So, in a voice as soft as a mosquito’s buzz, Charley mumbled, “Thank you, sister–in–law.”

Sofia was a bit surprised. This girl was easy to tame,
She called her sister–in–law so readily; Sofia had thought she’d have to cook a few more meals first.
But this was all thanks to Old Mr. Hart.
Sofia looked over at him, her eyes showing gratitude.
After all, Charley was Nathaniel’s sister. She didn’t want her relationship with Charley to affect the sibling bond between them,
Even though Sofia didn’t take Charley too seriously,
But family harmony was important to her.
She hoped to find in the Hart family the closeness she hadn’t experienced in the Schneider family.
And she hoped that the hardships she faced in the Schneider family wouldn’t happen again.
After dinner, Nathaniel took Sofia back to their room.
To prevent Old Mr. Hart from nagging him, he even threw out a line, “I’m taking Sofia back to get ready.”
This directly led to Sofia keeping a ten–foot distance from Nathaniel as soon as they returned to the room.
Luckily, the room was big enough; otherwise, Sofia would have had nowhere to hide.
Nathaniel didn’t really intend to push her. Seeing her so guarded against him, he felt a bit frustrated.
Sitting down on the sofa, he said, “Sofia, you’re making me really sad acting like this.”
“Then go ahead and be sad,” Sofia retorted without mercy.
She wasn’t going to fall for it.
Ever since this man had experienced sex, not a single word from his mouth could be trusted.

She was absolutely not going to be fooled by him.
Nathaniel sighed helplessly, stood up, and walked toward Sofia.
She quickly moved away, saying, “Don’t come any closer!”
However, Nathaniel suddenly sped up. With a long stride, he reached out and pulled Sofia into his arms.
Sofia blinked in astonishment, looking at him.
After a long moment, she finally said, “You have no integrity!”
They had been just joking around; how could he suddenly get serious?
If that was the case, how could she not really run away?
Holding her waist, Nathaniel said, “Integrity? If you won’t let me hold you, what’s the use of integrity?”
Sofia almost laughed out of anger.
What kind of twisted logic is that?
She pushed against his chest and said, “Don’t hold me like this. It’s hot.”
Nathaniel was genuinely amused by her.
This girl wasn’t being honest at all.
He said, “Sofia, your arms are cold, and you’re telling me you’re hot? Are you hinting at something to me?”
Sofia ”

She almost wanted to spit at him.
Did this man even know what he was saying?
Frowning, she said, “Is your mind filled with nothing but thoughts of making love?”
Nathaniel was momentarily at a loss for words. Without hesitation, he leaned down and
