I wanted to reach out to tell Sophia it would be okay, but the truth was, I didn't know if it would.
Her trust in Edward had always been strong, almost unshakable, but now cracks were beginning to show.
I could see it in the way her hand clenched at her side, the way her steps faltered just slightly.
It wasn't just Edward carrying a secret anymore. We were all being dragged into it, and I feared Sophia would be the one hurt most.
Just last night, I consoled him about a hands-on boyfriend, and now he was here doing all the opposite to a trustworthy and honest better half.
I could see Sophia's face growing tighter with every second. Her silence screamed louder than words. She didn't understand, and neither did I, but for her, it was worse.
While I sank in worry, Emma's world looked completely different. Her big doe eyes sparkled as she glanced around at the grand hallway we stepped into.
