Sophia looked into the mirror and sneered. Sure, go ahead and try. Do you think I care?
In the next few days, John really didn’t show up, while Sophia’s shop was still very busy.
The matriarch of the Blackwell Family, Kate Blackwell, came several times. At first, she complained that Sophia
hadn’t visited her, but when she saw that Sophia was really busy, she stopped badgering her.
Kate said that Fabian Blackwell’s family kept talking about her. Instead of asking Sophia to call them her parents,
she just told her, “Your godfather and godmother think about you all the time. Even Fabian brought you up twice,
saying that his sister never goes back after the last time you had a meal together.”
Sophia didn’t know if what Kate said was true, so she could only smile. “You’ve seen how busy I am yourself.
There’s no way I can leave the shop considering how busy it is.”
Thus, Kate could only nod. “Yes, I can see how busy you are now that I’m here to visit you.” Then, she slowly let out
a sigh and continued her topic. “Fabian also mentioned that your relationship with John is very different, and that
you two have a special connection. Girl, why haven’t I heard you mention this before?”
Sophia was taken aback for a moment, wondering if Fabian Blackwell was trying to give the old woman a hint about
something. Hence, she hesitated and replied, “Well, my relationship with John isn’t that special. I didn’t feel the
need to tell you.”
Sitting in her chair, Kate looked outside the window. “John, well, I watched him grow up too. But my health hasn’t
been well for the past two years, so I’ve not really kept in contact with the Constance Family. John is a good kid

Sophia had no comment about that, so she could only nod her head. “Yes, I guess he’s a very good man.”
Robin glanced at Kate and nodded as well. “Mr. Constance looked like a nice guy. He came here a few times before
and was very polite.”
Kate agreed. “That boy has always been really obedient since he was a kid. He followed the path his family laid out
for him without any protest, so it is in his nature to be reserved. Oh, by the way, John is married. Haven’t you seen
his wife before?”
At that, the old woman added, “During that banquet, John didn’t bring his wife along. I really wished to see the
eldest Young Mistress of the Constance Family.”
Sophia looked away; she wasn’t sure how to react to that. After all, John had no wife now. He only had an ex-wife,
who was standing in front of the old woman right now.
Robin too felt a little embarrassed. Turning her head to glance at Sophia, she felt like laughing.
However, Kate did not notice their expressions and continued saying, “John should be a really good man. Don’t be
tricked by his aloofness; I’m sure he’s someone who really pampers his wife.”
Sophia almost burst out laughing. This old lady really doesn’t hear anything through the grapevine; she only relies
on her own subjective judgment in everything. I’m sure I’m the most qualified person to judge whether John is a
good husband or not. That jerk was really inhuman back then!
The old woman sat there for a while before leaving.
She was no longer sprightly, so it was easy for her to feel tired after spending too much time outdoors. Besides, the
Blackwell Family would worry about her if she was out too long.
After the matriarch of the Blackwell Family left, Robin was a little emotional as she said, “This grandmother of yours
looks like a nice woman. She is pretty good to you.”
Sophia thought about the Constance Family and how Old Mr. Constance treated her so well that she made a
mistake in her judgment and thought that everyone in the family would accept her. But now, look at what happened
to me after his passing.
The Blackwell Family was similar to the Constance Family; the only one who was truly willing to accept her was
probably the matriarch of the Blackwell Family.
