Without replying to their messages, Sophia went downstairs with her cell phone in hand. After eating a simple
breakfast, she then lay down on the yoga mat and stared at the chandelier on the ceiling. Back when I was in the
village, I had endless tasks every day.
At that time, I wondered how nice it’d be if I could just lie down peacefully like this and do nothing one day. Now,
this dream has come true, but I find that it’s actually quite boring to just lie down leisurely.
However, just a few seconds after she’d lay down, a car stopped in front of her house. She warily sat up at once,
for she couldn’t help thinking that Mrs. Constance was back after having lost to her the previous time. When she
caught sight of the person who alighted from the car, her brows slowly creased.
It’s Old Mrs. Constance walking over with someone supporting her! After a moment’s deliberation, she pivoted and
sprinted upstairs. She moved quickly, so Old Mrs. Constance just happened to reach the door when she came down
again. Thus, she went over to open the door. “Madam.”
Old Mrs. Constance chuckled. “You’ve changed your address of me pretty quickly. You’re no longer calling me
Grandma, huh?”

Sophia smiled. “Please come in.”
Old Mrs. Constance was helped into the house by the servant. She hadn’t been here, so she looked around as she
stood in the living room. “This wasn’t done by John, was it? It doesn’t look like it.”

my liking, so I changed them.”
Old Mrs. Constance nodded. “It’s good that you changed them. It looks great now.”
Sophia then ushered her to the sofa to have a seat. After thinking for a while, she said, “I have no plain water here,
only soft drinks. Would you like to have any?”
At this, Old Mrs. Constance chortled. “Sure. I haven’t drunk any in a long time. I remember that I was rather fond of
drinking those colorful drinks back when I was young.” However, her family forbade her from drinking such drinks,
so she later gave them all up.
Sophia hurriedly went over to the refrigerator and took two cans of soft drinks for her. Holding a can in her hand,
Old Mrs. Constance scrutinized it. “What flavor is this? I haven’t seen this in a long time, so I had no idea that the
packaging has changed so much.”
“It’s orange. There’s a grape-flavored one here. Which one would you like?” Sophia held out the can in her hand.

“I’ll go for orange, then. I like oranges quite a bit.”
Glancing at Old Mrs. Constance, Sophia took out a box from the side and said gingerly, “Grandma, this was from
you back then. I’ve mulled over it for a while and decided that I can’t keep this. I was planning to return it to John,
but I haven’t found the right time to do so.
Now that you’re here, I think I should return this to you.” The item she was handing to Old Mrs. Constance was the
jade pendant she gifted her back then.
Old Mrs. Constance’s gaze fell on the velvet box. After a long while, she asked, “Have you misunderstood
something? I’m not here because of this.”
“I know,” Sophia replied. “You’re probably here to thank me for helping John out. Actually, it’s not a big deal. When
this matter blows over, I can then relax, so I’m not really helping him. Rather, I’m helping myself.”
Her frankness had relief suffusing Old Mrs. Constance. Taking her hand and placing it onto her own palm, she
sighed softly. “No matter what, the Constance Family owes you.”
Sophia hastily chuckled. “No, not at all. The Constance Family doesn’t owe me anything. Conversely, you’ve given
me a lot.” At least, it was John who gave me this house I’m living in. Without all this, I might be forced to return to
my hometown, and I’m not enthusiastic about going back to that place where I’ll have to rely on the weather to
make a living.
Since she’d said as much, Old Mrs. Constance was at a loss for words. After musing for a while, she murmured,
“John is actually a very simple-minded person. All these years, he has been focusing on work wholeheartedly and
neglected other things. Take Isabelle, for instance. Do you think he has feelings for Isabelle? I don’t think so.”
