The next day, John was already off to work when Sophia woke up, as she woke up late. She scratched

her head while sitting on the bed before washing up at a leisurely pace, but she was very aware that

she had an appointment with Ian.

Last night’s meal was a whole feast, so she wasn’t hungry yet. She put on some light makeup after

washing up, then went to the mall to shop for some new clothes. The outfit she picked was a skirt and a

pair of sandals decorated with diamond chips. Her hair was tucked into a bun, which finished up the

refreshing look before she left.

First of all, she went to check on the dessert shop, only to see that Robin had yet to open up for the

day. It did seem like her lazy *ss had no plans to work on the business.

While lingering around the shop, Sophia noticed that there were quite a lot of office workers around the

area during mornings, which meant that she would have sufficient customers if things worked out.

She gave Ian a call when it was about time, which he picked up fairly quickly before asking where she

was, then offered to fetch her. Upon telling him her location, Ian arrived swiftly in that very same car,

which Sophia entered without hesitation.

She noticed that Ian looked different upon entering the car, as he was in a suit, which was starkly

different from his casual wear. The formal attire was very becoming of his handsome features, which

helped him to blend in among the society’s elites.

“Does this mean you have found a job?” While buckling up, Sophia threw him a question with a

cheerful disposition.

“I’ll start working in my family’s company starting tomorrow.” Ian’s reply was short but serious.

It was followed by a pause on Sophia’s part as she recalled John telling her that the Morgan Family

was one of prestige, and also one with an expansive business. She gave him a nod after giving it some

thought. “It’s nice to work in a family business, as you can be less restrained while working in your own

domain.”

“That’s an oversimplification of things.” A smile tugged at Ian’s lips.

“Why would you say so?” Sophia sounded surprised.

“Let’s go visit my family’s company.” The smile on his lips never faded. He then drove her to his family’s

company.

The car was parked outside as they weren’t allowed to go in, while Sophia rested by the car window as

she stared at the office building outside the car. “Does the whole building belong to your family?”

While resting on his seat, Ian hummed in assent as he observed the building. Meanwhile, Sophia

chuckled before saying, “It doesn’t look bad at all, as business seems to be booming.”

The office building they owned was almost as huge as the one owned by the Constance Family, and

both were located in the city center. However, Ian asked after a few seconds, “What do you think the

internal affairs would be like with such a big company?”

A sudden recollection of Ian indicating that the woman they met yesterday was his stepmother hit

Sophia when she turned to look at Ian, which would make things a little awkward. The presence of a

stepmother would almost always guarantee an estrangement between the child and the father figure.

“Do you have siblings?” Sophia twirled her gaze as she threw him a curveball.

Ian let slip a chuckle. “Yes. I have an older brother, a younger brother, and a younger sister.”

A mental image of Old Mr. Morgan popped into mind as she was amazed by his reproductive abilities,

which prompted her to ask, “Do they all work in the company?”

Ian gave her a nod. “Yeah, all of them.”

“It must be a complicated situation.” Sophia smacked her lips, but she figured it wouldn’t necessarily

compare to the situation in the Constance Family. All four brothers and their families were all gathered

under a single company, which would guarantee a lot of ensuing schemes.

“Yeah, it’s super complicated.” The gaze in Ian’s eyes darkened, which made Sophia realize that the

situation was far more complicated than she’d imagined. He switched the topic abruptly by that point.

“Have you read the online news article?”

“What news article? I haven’t had time to read it.” Sophia was startled by his question.
