Bryce eventually got his food and he and Sofie started talking getting to know each other. "Ok pumpkin we are home" Bryce spoke making Sofie jump out the car, her eyes went wide looking at the beautiful mansion in front of her, her jaw dropped to the floor, it was beautiful, "C'mon sweetie" he spoke holding her hand, they walked together in the house, inside was much bigger than the outside, it was beautiful and grand fit for royalty. 

"Welcome home Sofie" Bryce spoke walking to the kitchen with Sofie wondering behind him, she was amazed at the beautiful architecture and flooring of the house, Bryce placed the food on the island, he then lifted Sofie up and made her sat on the island, he then distributed the food to Sofie, the father and daughter ate and talked for sometime, they ended off the night with watching an movie.
