It was fine if John and Sophia wanted to act all lovey-dovey with each other in front of her alone, but if

they were to do it in front of her and her family… Would John really be that heartless? Where would

this put her?

When she saw Isabelle like this, Sophia immediately grew happy. So, she followed Logan’s lead and

said, “Alright. It’s as Logan said. I should go and greet them.”

She hooked John’s arm and followed him to the outside.

Meanwhile, Isabelle was still standing at the door, pursing her lips while looking at Sophia and John.

The corners of Sophia’s mouth were lifted, making her look like a cat who had caught a canary. She

really was suitable to be a villain, for she really liked this feeling of making a weak b*tch like Sophia so

angry that she would cry at any time. It really was a great feeling.

John took Sophia to a private room that had its door ajar located not far away and pushed the door

open directly.

The atmosphere in the private room was actually pretty good. Mrs. Constance and Mrs. Bailey were

smiling, looking like the best of friends, while William and the Old Mr. Bailey were clinking glasses

together and toasting one another, looking like best pals.

John went in and called out a greeting to his parents, then he said that when he had gone out earlier,

he had bumped into Sophia, so he brought her over to say hello to everyone.

Instantly, everyone inside the room fell silent.

William, however, recovered pretty quickly as he swiftly stood up. “Oh, Sophia. I had asked John if you

were free today and wanted to invite you to come over with us. He said that you wanted to open up

your store and would be a bit busy there. But look! You’re here now! Talk about coincidence!’

William’s words were courteous enough for Sophia, so she was willing to open her mouth and call him

‘Dad’ sweetly. Then, she said, “I have been a bit busy lately. I went to the store to sign the contract

today. When John returned to the Constance Residence at noon, he had asked me to come along, but

I really couldn’t get out of it.”

When Sophia said this, she looked at the expressions of the people in the private room. Mrs.

Constance was not a good actor, so her long face was pretty obvious; even Mrs. Bailey’s expression

was better concealed than hers. On the other hand, Old Mr. Bailey did not look at Sophia. He only

looked at Isabelle who was at the doorway.

Isabelle was standing behind Sophia and John, so Sophia couldn’t see her expression, but she could

guess that Isabelle’s expression right now must be extremely sad. Oh dear, what should I do? I feel

really happy right now though. I’m literally on cloud nine!

William seemed to have noticed that the atmosphere in the room was not very good, so he kept

smiling, trying to ease the tense atmosphere. “Come. You haven’t eaten yet, have you? Sit down and

eat with us. The Baileys will be working together with our family in the future. They are our partners, so

they won’t mind.”

It didn’t matter to Sophia if they minded it or not, but she herself felt bothered. Thus, she smiled and

replied, “It’s okay, Dad. I still have friends outside. I just came over to say hello. They are still waiting for

me over there.”

Mrs. Constance finally spoke up now. “You still have friends outside? Who?” Her tone of speech was

somewhat odd. Since Sophia wasn’t a person of great status, Mrs. Constance naturally thought that

she wouldn’t have any friends who were respectable. Mrs. Constance looked down on her, so she

would also look down on her so-called friends. “Would you like to call your friends over here and have

everyone get to know each other?” she said after a snort.

Of course, Sophia had heard the ridicule in Mrs. Constance’s tone, so she looked at Mrs. Constance

and told her, “I think we should forget about this. I heard that his reputation is not very good, so it won’t

be good if he comes over and upsets you all.”

Isabelle hurriedly said, “Miss Gwendolyn’s friend should have other things to do, so…”

“What’s there to be worried about?” Mrs. Constance said directly. “I haven’t seen any of Sophia’s

friends before. Since we’re here, you should bring your friend over as well.”
