In the evening of the next day, Sophia changed into an ivory white sleeveless dress and headed to Howard's house with Capone.
Howard had emphasized that it was just a casual family gathering, with only close friends and relatives attending. It was meant to be a laid-back occasion, but Sophia still chose a modest white dress and made a beautiful cake as a gift for the host.
Capone comforted her, "Don't be too nervous. Howard is now the head of the Howard family. Everyone in the family looks up to him. His home party will definitely be trouble-free."
Sophia nodded. She knew that this kind of gathering wasn't for any business purposes, so there was no real reason to feel tense. But for some reason, her heart was racing faster and faster, and the closer they got to Howard's villa, the stronger the feeling became.
However, the moment she stepped into the Howard family's garden, she felt a sense of calmness wash over her.
