Chapter 47 

Thomas looked gloomy, but he said calmly, “She won today, but she won’t be so lucky next time.” 

Jasmine continued to stare at Daisy and Roger. Her eyes were filled with hatred for Sophie.. 

She thought, ‘Everything happened because of that wretched girl. Daisy and Roger have become so smug after she arrived at the Nicholls family! Just wait, I’ll have plenty of opportunities to mess with you in the future!” 

Sophie’s gaze would drift to the entrance of the hall every once in a while even though she was constantly socializing with the guests. 

Daisy saw Sophie looking around and took the opportunity when the guests turned around to leave to ask, “Sophie, what are you looking at?” 

Sophie was stunned for a moment before realizing that she had been too obvious. 

However, she was curious as to why the members of the Dawson family weren’t here yet. 

She answered, “I heard that the Dawson family will also be here today. Why haven’t they come yet?” 

They had started receiving guests at five o’clock, and the banquet would begin sharply at six after the gifts and formalities were settled. 

The members of the Dawson family wouldn’t just arrive sharply at six, would they?” Sophic thought. 

“It’s the Dawson family you’re talking about. They’re top–notch celebrities who have more experience than even the top ten families. They would usually arrive last to Norman’s birthday banquet, but I’ve never seen them late. They should arrive soon,” Daisy said. 

“No wonder,” Sophie replied. It made sense. Considering the Dawson family’s status, they would definitely be the last to arrive. 

While Sophie was in thought, she suddenly heard a familiar voice congratulating Norman. 

“Mr. Norman! I wish you happiness, health, and a long life!” 

The familiar voice belonged to none other than Russell. 

Sophie’s gaze instantly darkened when she saw the members of the Bourn family. 

She had forgotten that the members of the Dawson family would not be the only people to come today. The members of the Bourn family would also be here. 

She could not help but feel a little disgusted. The smile on her face disappeared. 

Roger seemed to have sensed something and reached out to hold her hand. 

Chapter 47 

Sophie couldn’t help but glance sideways at Roger. 

Her heart felt warm. 

Russell and his wife had just finished congratulating Norman when they suddenly saw Sophie and Roger not far behind Norman. 

They had thought that Sophie would not be attending the banquet because of her legs. 

However, they did not expect that not only did she attend the banquet, but she was even standing beside Roger. 

“Sophie… Y–you can stand up now?” Russell stammered. 

At this moment, he was stunned. 

Sophie had been sitting in a wheelchair for the three or four years she was in the Bourn family. However, she was now miraculously standing up despite only being in the Nicholls family for half a month. 

Ursa was also shocked when she saw this. 

“H–how is this possible?” 

Sophie had not gone through any effective treatment for her legs. Ursa wanted Sophie to be permanently paralyzed so she had to stay in the Bourn family. However, she did not expect Sophie to stand in less than half a month. 

Ursa thought, “This is impossible! Could she have been putting on an act in the Bourn family?” 

Seeing how shocked Russell and Ursa were, Sophie could not help but walk over. She said, “Dad, Mom, why are you so shocked? Are you so surprised that I’ve recovered?* 

Her legs would recover as long as she received effective treatment. 

Unfortunately, Ursa was too reluctant to spend money on her. She was also afraid that Sophic would leave the Bourn family after her legs recovered, so she refused to treat her. 

However, Sophie could treat herself pretty well even after learning traditional medicine. 

Russell was at a loss for words when Sophie rebuked him. He could only reply dryly, “What nonsense are you spouting, Sophie? We’re happy for you. Right, Ursa?” 

Ursa also came back to her senses

She suddenly saw Roger behind Sophie. 

She recalled the threats that Roger had sent to the hospital last time and could only grit her teeth and endure the mockery. She replied, “Yeah… We’re happy for you.” 

Roger cared deeply about Sophie. Ursa was not stupid enough to have a direct conflict with her in 

Chapter 47 

public. 

Sophie smiled when she saw how good Russell and Ursa were at deflecting the topic. She said, “I’m happy for myself too. I can finally escape the dark days.” 

There was a double meaning behind her words, and her gaze was cold. 

Russell did not dare to say anything else, afraid that Sophie would expose the two of them in public. He immediately said. “Yes, congratulations. Um, I just saw Mr. Mitchell over there. I need to go over and say hello. Mr. Norman, let’s catch up again later.” 

Russell and Ursa left anxiously before Norman could acknowledge them. 

Damian watched the two of them leave in a hurry with a mocking gaze. He said, “They didn’t have to come if they didn’t want to. Why did they have to come and give such hypocritical blessings?” 

Norman said calmly, “They are our guests since they are here. They haven’t fallen out with us, so let’s just maintain the peace with them.” 

“Understood. The members of the Nicholls family did not say anything else

Norman glanced at Sophie. 

Norman was smart. He knew that Sophie must have suffered a lot in the Bourn family since the time he saw Sophie standing up. However, the Nicholls family’s reputation was the most important thing at the moment. 

Sophie understood the meaning behind Norman’s gaze. She took a deep breath and could only suppress her grievance. 

She thought, ‘It’s fine… There’s still a long way to go. I’ll have plenty of opportunities to take revenge on Russell and Ursa Bourn as long as I secure my status in the Nicholls family. 

As Sophie was deep in thought, Damian suddenly reminded Norman, “Dad, the members of the Dawson family are here.” 

“The Dawson family has arrived? Is Miss Dawson here too?” Ronald immediately stared at the door when he heard that the members of the Dawson family had arrived, trying to find his sweetheart. 

Sophie looked toward where the members of the Nicholls family were looking. 

Several handsome figures appeared at the entrance of the hall, instantly attracting everyone’s 

attention. 

She knew those tall and handsome men. They were the five sons of the Dawson family. They were outstanding in their various fields. 

They were also her biological brothers. 

As soon as they appeared, many daughters of prestigious families secretly exclaimed, “The sons of the Dawson family are all so handsome!” 

Chapter 47 

“That’s right. They are also very impressive. The eldest son, Kenneth, is the CEO of the Brodesia Group’s main company, while the second son, Benjamin, is the CEO of the branch company. The third son, Wesley, is the youngest cardiovascular medicine doctor in the country. Lucas, the fourth son, is particularly impressive. He’s a popular singer and actor in the entertainment industry now. Although the youngest son, Timothy, rarely shows his face, I heard he’s an international criminal police officer and great at martial 

Everyone discussed the sons of the Dawson family animatedly. However, Evelyn, who was surrounded by five outstanding men, was even more eye–catching. 

“I’m so envious of the Dawson family’s daughter. She has five outstanding brothers.” 

“That’s right. I heard she has been pampered since she was young. Her parents and brothers would buy her anything she wanted, even a star,” 

“Really? I’m so envious

Evelyn, who was in the middle of the crowd, raised her chin proudly as if she had heard them. 

She was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. She had the right to be proud. 

Everyone looked at Evelyn enviously. Everyone except Sophie. 

Sophie had a sad gaze. 

She was supposed to be in that position, loved by thousands of people. 

“Who is that woman?’ she thought.
