Find Me In Your Labyrinth novel Chapter 2274

Sophia shrugged off her puffy jacket, revealing a pale blue shirt underneath. She looked utterly exhausted as she complained, "I guess I'm just not used to the water here or something!"

Jasmine retorted, her voice laced with mock severity, "That's asking for a smack! Complaining about not being used to the water back home? I ought to send you off to the Midwest to chill in the cold wind!"

Sophia immediately leaned closer to Mrs. Gilder, seeking refuge, "Look at her, always so mean to me. How could I possibly feel good?"

Jasmine turned away, refusing to engage further.

Mrs. Gilder couldn't help but laugh, pulling Sophia into a hug, "Then you should just move in with us, away from her glares."

"Who's moving in with us?"

A voice floated down from the stairs. Sophia looked up to see Jason, wearing a crisp white shirt, his eyes widening slightly behind his glasses as he noticed Sophia cuddling up to his mom.

Jason was visibly surprised, the sight of Sophia seeking comfort from his mother stirring something in him.

Sophia quickly sat up, equally surprised, "When did you get back?"

Jason didn't answer right away. Instead, he greeted Jasmine first, "Hey, Zoe!"

"Jason!" Jasmine looked at him with affection.

Jason smiled lightly, "Did you make meatloaf? I could smell it the moment I walked in. Mom's been talking about it for days."

Jasmine responded, "Yeah, I've been sneezing all day, had no choice but to make it."

Everyone burst into laughter.

Still leaning on Mrs. Gilder's shoulder, Sophia chuckled softly, "Gina, have you noticed? You and I get along so well, and Jason gets along so well with my mom. It's like we got switched at birth."

Mrs. Gilder laughed heartily, "I've wondered the same. Maybe we should swap now."

Jason looked at Sophia calmly, "No need to swap. If you like my mom so much, you're always welcome to move in."

Jasmine chimed in, "Please, let her move in. It'll give me a break from her lazy antics."
