Chapter 49 – Sophia Philinover (4)
Baron Philinover misunderstood and thought Milton liked his daughter.
'But why?'
It didn’t make any sense. If Milton really liked his daughter, then he could just make an official marriage proposal. So why was he lying and saying he would like to hire her as an architect? After thinking things through, Baron Philinover, once again, came to his own conclusion.
‘The Count likes my daughter, but she doesn’t like him. Makes sense, she’s been refusing all marriage proposals until now.’
In fact, there had been many who had asked to marry Sophia. While her family only had the rank of a Baron, because her beauty was remarkable even amongst the other noble ladies. Sophia had received over ten marriage proposals in the Capital. But she had been fascinated by architecture and hated the idea of marrying and refused all proposals. Baron Philinover, who had been frustrated to death by his daughter, felt like he finally understood the situation.
