Eva was immediately stunned.
The amount of information in that sentence was quite overwhelming.
The woman in front of her, was she their... boss's wife?
Sophie Wilson is actually... the boss's illegitimate daughter?
Ha!
So what is Sophie acting all high and mighty about in the company?
"Sophie is an illegitimate daughter?" Eva's tone was noticeably higher due to excitement, but when Lily glared at her, she realized her voice was too loud and quickly toned it down, saying in a conspiratorial manner, "You're too generous to be raising an illegitimate daughter!"
"Sigh..." Lily let out a gentle sigh, "The one who made the mistake is her mom, not her. What does an ignorant child know?"
"Her mom abandoned her; could I just watch and do nothing?" Lily's kind demeanor was almost radiant enough to make her a living Buddha, able to bear miracles just by knocking her head with lumps.
"Mrs. Wilson, you are truly kind-hearted," Eva said in admiration.
