Third Person Perspective:
Sophia pitifully pointed to her wrist, silently indicating: "It hurts."
Magnus immediately forgot everything else, gently rubbing the little girl's wrist and tenderly saying: "Shhhh...daddy’s gonna make hurt go away, okay?"
Watching Sophia's instant tears, Mason couldn't help but praise her in his heart.
That acting... was impressive.
Because of this incident, Helena couldn't continue staying at the Evermere family estate and left in embarrassment.
After comforting the children, Magnus went to change clothes and prepare for the office.
Before leaving, he didn't forget to remind the two children to stay home properly.
Watching the car drive out of the Evermere family estate from the courtyard, the two children dropped their pretense, unable to hide their worry.
"Mason, Daddy is taking the bad woman to the banquet tonight. Will Mommy be bullied?"
Sophia's cute little face was full of concern.
Mason shook his head and said: "Don't underestimate Mommy. Mommy isn't so easily bullied."
He comforted Sophia: "If you're worried, I'll hack into the Grant family banquet's surveillance system. If they really bully Mommy, we'll get revenge for her later!"
Only then did Sophia nod.

Ophelia's Perspective:
At eight o'clock in the evening, luxury cars lined up endlessly outside the hotel owned by the Grant family. Annie drove Liliana's car to bring me here.
The car stopped outside the hotel, and I lifted my carefully selected evening gown and slowly got out.
Annie rolled down the window and said to me: "I'll come pick you up later."
"Mm." I nodded, then turned and walked toward the banquet hall.
Tonight's banquet attendees were all prominent figures. Although I was an unfamiliar face and no one recognized me, my appearance still drew considerable attention. I wore a azure blue strapless evening gown, the satin skirt flowing like ocean waves, creating layers of luminous ripples with each step I took.
My makeup was specially arranged by Liliana. The exquisite makeup didn't require heavy application—just light touches that made my features more refined and alluring. My long hair was styled in a loose chignon with a few slightly curled bangs hanging by my cheeks, flowing and soft. I looked languidly elegant and untouchably noble!
Although I didn't know anyone, my temperament clearly attracted attention. I acted as if I noticed nothing, only searching everywhere for Harrison's figure. At the moment, he was surrounded by a group of guests. Not wanting to join the crowd, I found a corner to wait, planning to approach him when he was less busy to discuss business.
While waiting, several more waves of guests entered. I glanced over and was about to look away when suddenly there was a commotion at the entrance, accompanied by the guests' chatter.
"Look, isn't that Helena with Master Magnus?"
"It really is Master Magnus! So handsome..."
Hearing this, my heart involuntarily tightened, and I looked up. Sure enough, the next second I saw that pair of man and woman walking in from outside.
Magnus wore a charcoal gray custom-tailored suit, impeccably dressed and incomparably noble. Helena followed closely behind with a gentle smile. She wore a cream-colored haute couture gown that made her appear infinitely graceful under the lights.
"I have to say, they look quite well-matched standing together."
The chatter around me sounded again, inevitably with some sour mockery.
"Yes, who doesn't know that over all these years, the only one who could stand beside Master Magnus was Helena."
Helena at the entrance was clearly enjoying this kind of attention. This was exactly the feeling she wanted—she wanted everyone to know that she was the future mistress of the Evermere family!
The Grant family hadn't expected Magnus to attend. Although the two families had fierce business competition and poor relations in private, they still had to maintain appearances on such occasions. So Harrison walked over.
"What an unexpected guest. I didn't expect Mr. Evermere to grace us with his presence."
Magnus said indifferently: "It's rare to have such excitement, so I came to take a look. Mr. Grant doesn't mind, I hope?"
Helena also acted as if she couldn't see the underlying conflict between the two families, smiling as she greeted: "Mr. Grant, sorry to disturb you. I heard Dr. Blackthorn would be attending tonight, so Magnus specially came to seek medical help for me. We came uninvited—please don't take offense."
"Of course not."
After hearing Helena's words, Harrison's expression carried a trace of an enigmatic smile as he looked at Magnus: "Master Magnus is quite the devoted man!"
Magnus frowned slightly, too lazy to explain. He scanned the crowd and asked directly: "Has Dr. Blackthorn arrived?"
Sophia pitifully pointed to her wrist, silently indicating: "It hurts."
Magnus immediately forgot everything else, gently rubbing the little girl's wrist and tenderly saying: "Shhhh...daddy’s gonna make hurt go away, okay?"
