John chuckled. “I’m not in a hurry, so there’s no rush for me.”

Lady Jennifer nodded. “If you’re interested in finding a life partner, I can help you out, too. I’m just afraid that your

mother won’t fancy my choice and mistake me as being a busybody.”

At this, John guffawed. “My mother has a sharp tongue and isn’t quite good at expressing herself. Please don’t take

offense to her rash words in the past.” Lady Jennifer then answered that she held no grudge since they were a

family, but John could tell that she was truly upset.

After chatting with her for a while, Dylan came back from meeting a client. When he saw that Lady Jennifer was

there upon his return, mild surprise showed on his face. He greeted his mother before glancing at John. Thus, John

explained, “Aunt Jennifer has been here for some time now. She came specifically to see you.”

Upon hearing this, Dylan realized the purpose of her visit. She merely mentioned it in passing last night, yet she

really moves fast. She’s here in less than a day’s time! Exasperation inundated him. “Don’t go to so much trouble,

Mom. I know what to do about my own affairs. There’s already someone whom I like.”

Taken aback, Lady Jennifer stared at him. Beside her, John pinned his gaze on Dylan as well. “There’s someone

whom you like? Who is it? Is it one of those girls whom I introduced to you in the past?” Lady Jennifer promptly

questioned.

Dylan shook his head. “No, no, it’s not anyone whom you introduced to me. However, you are acquainted with her.”

John’s heart jolted when he heard this remark, and his expression inadvertently darkened. Dylan, on the other

hand, seemed to have noticed nothing, grinning still. His eyes fixed on Lady Jennifer, he added, “Anyhow, I’m

keeping her identity secret for now. I’ll tell you who it is when I think the time is right.”

Lady Jennifer’s brows creased deeply. “Just who is it that you can’t tell me now? Are you so mysterious because her

background is substandard?”

Walking over, Dylan wrapped an arm around her shoulder. “Stop asking, for I’m not going to say a single word now.

Come, come, let’s go and talk in my office so that we don’t distract John from his work.”

John went over and walked Lady Jennifer to the door. Then, he turned his gaze on Dylan. “Introduce the girl you like

to me when you’re free. I’ll help to appraise her.”

Dylan chortled, looking not the slightest bit guilty. “Sure.”

John watched as the two of them entered Dylan’s office before he closed the door and returned to his desk. He was

initially feeling unsettled, but it was now worse, for he wasn’t in the mood to work at all.

Taking a cigarette, he lit it and stuck it at the corner of his mouth. Then, he leaned back against his chair. As the

cigarette smoke swirled around him, his mind wandered, bringing up tons of memories from the past—his thoughts

back when he agreed to marry Sophia and later, when he was determined to have a divorce. What was Sophia

thinking when she signed the divorce agreement? I don’t believe she hadn’t noticed my obvious attentiveness

toward her thereafter. What, then, was she thinking at that time? These questions churned in his mind, yet no

answer came to him.

A moment later, Zack came in with a report for him. However, he was momentarily stunned when he entered and

glimpsed the expression on John’s face. He walked over to him. “Boss, is something playing havoc on your mind?”

Taking the cigarette out of his mouth, John stubbed it out. “No.”

At this, Zack burst out laughing. “Look at your expression. You have a long face.” Handing the report to John, he

asked, “Does it have to do with Sophia? Actually, I’ve watched the talent show Second Young Master Morgan joined.

That was akin to a public confession of love. Truthfully speaking, a girl will definitely be moved since it’s quite

romantic.”

John’s expression was originally a tad apathetic, but after hearing this proclamation, he instantly turned forbidding.
