    Chapter 1092 Manipted by My Mother


    "Stay here tonight, and I''ll..." Keysha whispered into Sofia''s ear.


    Benjamin Robins, perceiving the intentions of his daughter-inw, let out a knowing sigh. "You two


    carry on with your conversation. These old bones of mine are weary; I shall take a rest," he remarked,


    his wordsden with significance, and departed for some respite.

    Such a reaction left no doubt that Benjamin had silently consented to the idea suggested by Keysha.


    However, Sofia pretended to be conflicted. "Well... Mrs. Robins, this wouldn''t be fair to Skye," she


    demurred, casting herself in the role of a genteel and virtuous woman.


    "You''re being naive. As a woman, any perceived disadvantages would be yours to bear. Therefore, as


    long as you consent, this matter will be firmly decided," she dered with conviction, dismissing any


    thoughts of equality.


    Keysha held Sofia''s hand firmly, skillfully coaxing her.


    Yet Sofia pretended to hesitate, refraining from giving an immediate answer, afraid of revealing her true


    intention.


    "Don''t worry, this idea is solely mine, and I''ll ensure Skye never doubts your intentions," Keysha


    administered another dose of encouragement.


    "Mrs. Robins... you''re so kind," Sofia replied. She reached out and embraced Keysha while her voice


    trembling with emotion.


    Throughout the afternoon, Sofia remained by Keysha''s side at the vi, busy with embroidery and


    tending to the garden, all the while engaging in conversations.


    As dinnermenced, all the guests gathered in the dining room, while the servants poured wine for


    each of them. Meanwhile, Keysha ingeniously found multiple excuses to coax Skyler into drinking


    more.


    Skyler didn''t refuse and went on to drink several sses, and Sofia, not to be outdone, matched him


    drink for drink, indulging in multiple sses herself.


    After the meal, Sofia ced a hand on her head. "Mr. and Mrs. Robins, how strong is this red wine? I''m


    starting to feel slight dizziness," she asked, her voice betraying a subtle wavering.


    "This red wine has aged over the years. You, my dear, should have informed us if you were not


    ustomed to drinking," Keysha reproached gently, before turning to Skyler. "Please assist Sofia to


    her room for some rest. I have a matter to discuss with your father."


    Skyler''s heart brimmed with dissatisfaction, yet driven by the desire to depart swiftly, he reluctantly set


    his meal aside. Assisting Sofia, he guided her away from the table and ascended the staircase.


    Drunk from the red wine, Sofia found sce in Skyler''s embrace, intoxicated by his aroma. A surge of


    heat coursed through her veins, igniting an intense desire to surrender herselfpletely to him.


    She pondered in her heart. Didn''t Keysha say she would give it to Skye? Why do I feel so


    ufortable all over?


    Guiding her up the staircase, Skyler warned Sofia, "Stay away from Shirley in the future. If I discover


    any deceit or schemes on your part, don''t me me for disregarding our past sentiments!"


    He was a sentimental person, but he couldn''t tolerate deceit.


    Sofia wasn''t drunk; she was merely pretending to be intoxicated to go along with Keysha''s n.


    However, as she listened to Skyler''s words, an icy wave of unease washed over her.


    "Skye, I''m sorry," she apologized.


    Staggering up the stairs, Skyler guided Sofia to the guest room. However, just as he stepped inside,


    the room door abruptly clicked shut, leaving him locked inside.


    Before Skyler could react, he rushed towards the room door and grasped the handle, it was tightly shut.


    Bang bang bang—


    He pounded on the door with all his might and shouted, "Open the door! Open it immediately!"


    Yet no response came, only a mounting sensation of heat enveloping his body.


    As a doctor, Skylerprehended the situation in an instant.


    Consumed by anger, he yanked on the doorknob and forcefully pounded on the door, yet the room door


    remained sturdy as if rooted in ce.


    Skyler, belonging to one of the Four Big Families of Bloomstead, resided in a grand estate that boasted


    top-tier security measures. Reinforced with a sturdy panel, the door was imprable, rendering any


    attempts to break through.


    "Skye, I''m burning... Skye, Skye... I feel so ufortable..." Sofia expressed. It seemed that the


    medicine had caused Sofia to lose control of her senses gradually.
