Chapter 1440 Julia’s Broth

"Don't meet her?" Sonia was taken aback by Mary's suggestion.

Mary nodded. "Yes. When you visited them before, they treated you kindly, which is why you're having complicated emotions right now and are at a loss for what to do. In that case, I suggest you calm down instead of seeing them. Give yourself time to think about how you want this relationship to move forward."

Sonia bit her lips upon hearing that. After a while, she agreed to Mary's suggestion. She is right. My hatred for Titus and Julia seems to be fading after only one encounter with them; however, this is not the appropriate response to take. I would be betraying the Reeds if my animosity towards them vanished altogether. Therefore, I must put off a meeting with the Grays for now.

"Sorry to trouble you, Mary." Sonia looked at Mary apologetically.

"It's no big deal. Have a good rest, Young Mistress Sonia. I'll deal with her," Mary reassured her.

"Sure," Sonia hummed.

With that, Mary left.

Meanwhile, Julia paced back and forth in the hospital lobby with a thermal flask in her hand. She was extremely anxious because she had come to see her daughter, but her daughter resented them. Who knew if Sonia would agree to meet her?

As she paced back and forth, she couldn't help glancing at the elevator occasionally. Even so, she never saw the elevator door open. That made her feel disappointed and helpless. While wondering if her daughter would agree to meet her, Julia sighed. The next moment, she heard the sound of the elevator. So, she instantly raised her head and noticed Mary stepping out.

Since Julia couldn't recognize Mary, she withdrew her gaze, disappointment quickly filling her eyes. It's not Sonia. She figured her daughter must have decided not to meet her that day.

Soon, a bitter smile was present on her face. She then glanced at the figure in front of her, and it turned out to be the old lady she had bumped into earlier.

"Hello, Mrs. Gray," Mary greeted Julia as she approached her.

Looking at her with puzzlement, Julia inquired, "And you are?"

"I am Young Mistress Sonia's caretaker," Mary replied.

At first, Julia didn't quite catch whom she was referring to when she mentioned 'young mistress.' Then, when she recalled that Toby was the Fuller Family's young master, she reckoned that the maids in Fuller Residence must call him by that title. Now that Sonia was married to him, she did not doubt that the young mistress that the old lady mentioned earlier was referring to Sonia.

After realizing that Mary was Sonia's caretaker, Julia was instantly delighted. "Hello. Did Sonny send you to meet me?" Julia inquired urgently, her eyes filled with bliss and anticipation.

It was also Mary's first time meeting Julia. She heard from Toby and a few others that she greatly

adored her daughter. Still, Mary couldn't comprehend it because she had never met Julia. After seeing her with her own eyes, Mary realized that Toby and the rest were speaking the truth.

The lady in front of me clearly cherished her daughter. Her eyes are filled with adoration for Sonia. It really is quite unfortunate. She could have grown up happily being raised by Titus and Julia instead of living with the Reeds if it hadn't been for the feud between the Reed and Gray Families. Ultimately, Henry eventually remarried, and I heard that Sonia was mistreated by her stepmother and stepsister. With that thought, Mary sighed. NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.

"It's me." Mary sounded more polite to Julia this time.

Putting aside the grudges between the two families, Mary formed a favorable opinion of Julia after seeing how affectionate she was at the mention of her daughter. She could tell that Julia treated Sonia with a sincere heart.

"Nice to meet you," Julia quickly greeted her and asked in anticipation, "Erm… Did Sonny tell you to bring me up? Does she want to see me?"

Seeing the excited look on her face, Mary sighed and shook her head. "No. Young Mistress Sonia told me to see you off. She's not ready to see you yet."

"What?" The joy on Julia's face instantly froze, and her face even turned pale when she heard that her daughter refused to see her.

Though she was mentally prepared for her daughter's refusal to see her, she still carried some hope in her heart. Still, her hopes leaned toward being able to see Sonia. Eventually, she was confronted with being unable to see her daughter. Despite being mentally prepared, she couldn't help feeling a little

disappointed and sad.

"Why isn't she willing to meet me?" Julia hurriedly inquired. We had a wonderful meal together yesterday!

"It's normal for her to refuse to see you. After all, many things are going on between your families. Young Mistress Sonia needs time to accept your family. What kind of person would she be if she readily accepted you two?"

Julia was rendered speechless by her explanation. She's right. Henry was the one who raised her. She has always considered herself a Reed Family member. If she willingly accepts us, she may have difficulty overcoming her conscience. "Alright." She smiled with her head lowered. At the sudden thought of something, she handed the thermal flask to Mary. "Could you please hand this to her for me? I know she's having a hard time during her pregnancy. I went through the same thing back then when I had her, so here's the broth I specially prepared with the recipe obtained from a nutritionist. It's really beneficial for pregnant mothers, so I brought some for her to try."

Since Julia couldn't meet her daughter, she hoped that Sonia could at least drink the broth. It was a token of concern from a mother to her daughter.

After glancing at the thermal flask, Mary looked up at Julia's pleading eyes. Eventually, she gave in and took the flask. "Sure. I'll bring it to her, but I cannot guarantee whether she will drink it. I won't force her either."

"It's fine." Julia waved her hands. "I'm happy that you're willing to bring it to her. It's okay if she doesn't want to take it."

"Sure." Mary nodded. "I'm leaving now, then. You should leave too."

"Okay." Julia forced a smile.

Holding the thermal flask, Mary turned toward the elevator.

Julia watched her back and only left after seeing Mary enter the elevator.

Later, when Mary returned to the ward, Sonia was reading a book that Toby left for her as he was worried that she might be bored. She wasn't interested in those books initially, but she was also aware that using the phone for long hours would cause harm to her eyes, so she picked up a book and started to read. While reading, she realized that it was pretty interesting. Hence, she managed to read two books in a few days.

"Are you back, Mary?" Hearing the sound of the door opening, she closed the book and looked toward the door.

She was puzzled upon seeing the thermal flask in Mary's hand. "Is that—"

Seeing Sonia noticing the flask in her hand, Mary placed it on the table. "Mrs. Gray prepared this broth for you. Her sincerity moved me when she told me to give it to you, so I gave in and took it. While pregnant with you, she said she got the recipe from a nutritionist. It's good for pregnant mothers with a hard pregnancy, so she made it for you since you're going through a tough one right now. Want to try some, Young Mistress Sonia?"

Sonia's lips twitched. Initially, she intended to reject her, but her body reacted faster than her mouth as she nodded slightly. If she suddenly refused to drink it after realizing her actions, it would appear too

intentional; thus, she chose to remain silent.

Mary happily went to the kitchen to get a bowl when she agreed to drink the broth. Soon, a fragrant aroma instantly wafted into their noses when Mary opened the flask lid.

At that moment, Sonia's stomach couldn't help but grumble when she smelled it. She froze on the spot while Mary looked at her in surprise.
