Initially, when Mary grabbed Xandra’s hand, Xandra’s brows suddenly furrowed, and there was a hint of disdain in her eyes, wanting to shake off Mary. 

But upon hearing Mary’s later words, Xandra paused, and the expression on her face changed slightly. 

Yes. 

Tristan… 

The engagement between his family and her family! 

Originally, she thought she was the only girl in the Roscente Family, so only she could represent the Roscente Family in a marriage alliance with his family. 

But now, Sophia appeared out of nowhere! 

And between Sophia and Tristan… there was clearly an ambiguous relationship. 

She had always relied on the fact that Sophia came from a humble background and was not worthy of Tristan. Even if Tristan liked Sophia now, the only one who could enter his family and become the mistress was her, the Roscente Family’s only daughter. 

But now… Sophia obviously no longer had any such concern! 

Sophia was the true daughter of this family, and thus the one truly engaged to Tristan. 

Once Sophia discovered… her engagement with Tristan, Sophia would definitely cling to Tristan, seize the opportunity, and use this engagement to thoroughly bind Tristan. 

By then, she would really have no chance at all. 

Yes! 

Mary was right to remind her. 

Now, the most important thing was for her to rely on Tristan to regain this ground. 

As long as she could maintain the engagement with Tristan and truly become his fiancée, she would become absolutely valuable. 

the Roscente Family, seeing her value, would naturally understand that she was the one truly worth nurturing and the family’s recognized daughter. 

And to stabilize the cooperation with his family, her family would definitely not reveal the truth that she was not the Roscente Family’s daughter. They might even go along with it and let her become the real daughter of the Roscente Family. 

Even if things went awry, if she could marry Tristan and become the mistress of his family, she could still stand at the top of the world, basking in the aura of Mrs. Yeats, trampling over Sophia, even without the halo of her family. 

Thinking of this, a glimmer of hope sparked in Xandra eyes. 

No matter what, she had to secure Tristan completely before Sophia was publicly recognized by the Roscente Family and 

win Tristan’s heart! 

“Okay, I got it.” Xandra took a card out of her bag and handed it to Mary, “During my time abroad, I was grateful for your care of Grandpa. I know what to do, and I won’t let anyone with ulterior motives destroy my family’s bonds.”

Mary beamed at the sight of the card. 

She always knew that Xandra remembered her and never forgot to bring her ‘gifts‘ no matter the time. 

Maryi took the card and slipped it back into her pocket. Just as she was about to say something, she saw Xandra turn around, ready to leave in her high heels. 

“Miss, wait…” 

Mary hurried to catch up, “I haven’t finished yet. Miss, I mentioned Mr. Yeats because I just overheard the master on the phone, and the person on the other end… seemed to be Mr. Yeats!” 

Xandra stopped abruptly, turned her head, and looked at Mary with a face that turned pale, “Tris… why is Tris calling Grandpa?” 

Could it be that Tristan had already learned about Sophia’s identity and specifically called to inquire Grandpa? 

If he knew that the person with a marriage contract with him was Sophia… 

Would Tristan accept this engagement? 

She remembered the scene she saw at the auction, the two of them looking like a perfect pair, so closely bonded. 

She thought of Tristan’s protection of Sophia in Mr. Yeats’s hospital room, and his indifference towards herself. 

Xandra felt her heart in chaos, her heart twisted into a tight knot. 

Mary looked at Xandra’s pale face, feeling a pang of heartache, “Don’t overthink it. I heard that he is planning to visit master 

tomorrow.” 

Xandra’s heart skipped a beat. 

Visit? 

Then, wouldn’t he see Sophia at the Roscente Family estate? 

Or perhaps he is coming because of Sophia? 

“Miss, I think he is definitely coming for you,” Mary analyzed, “Think about it, for so many years, you have been recognized as the future Mrs. Yeats by the outside world. You and Mr. Yeats have been together many times, which shows that he has feelings for you.” 

“And that Sophia… before she returned to the family, wasn’t she just a wild child raised in the countryside? In terms of looks, knowledge, and ability, how can she compare to you, Miss?” 

“Anyone would choose you over her! Mr. Yeats is not blind. He naturally understands that only someone as outstanding as you, Miss, can shoulder the responsibility of being the mistress of his family.” 

“I guess it was at noon when you were tricked by her, causing masters to drive you out. Mr. Yeats must have heard about this and is eager to visit to stand up for you.” 

Xandra’s eyes flickered. 

At first, when Mary said Tristan was coming for her, she couldn’t believe it at all. 

After all, she had seen with her own eyes Tristan’s special treatment towards Sophia. 

But listening to Mary’s convincing analysis, as well as her compliments and belittlement of Sophia, she instantly felt that it 

was true.
