That excuse just came rushing out when Sophia opened her mouth, but John was reassured after mulling it over. He

then drove Sophia back to her house. However, shortly after, she dozed off while reclining against her seat. She

seems exceedingly tired, and her entire person appears to be sapped of energy.

Slowly bringing the car to a stop, he then alighted from the car and circled to Sophia’s side before carrying her

out. I wonder if I’m reading too much into things, but she seems to have lost a lot of weight. She’s so light that I

wonder if she’s been eating properly.

Entering the house, he headed upstairs and placed her on the bed. All at once, she flipped over and conked out

while hugging the covers. Standing beside the bed, John chuckled for some inexplicable reason before an image

flashed across his mind out of the blue.

If we have a worrisome daughter like her in the future, and the two of them lie together like this, I don’t think I’ll

have any more regrets in life. However, this picture was so perfect that he scarcely dared to imagine it.

Glancing at the time, he then gave Zack a call and asked him to bring the documents over. With Sophia in such a

condition, I truly can’t bring myself to leave. On the other end, Zack snickered. “You’re at Sophia’s place? Gosh,

you’ve finally seen the light, Boss!”

“Cut the crap! Hurry up and bring the documents over.” Mild impatience gripped John.

Zack was not quite afraid of him now, feeling that while he was indeed outstanding in his work, he appeared to be

an utter dunce in life, especially in matters of the heart. After all, once a person’s flaws were exposed, his authority

would be inexplicably weakened.

When he’d hung up the phone, John went downstairs. He sat on the sofa and logged in to his email with his cell

phone and perused a few documents. Thereafter, something seemed to have occurred to him, for his expression

turned solemn.

Meanwhile, Zack was rather prompt in arriving with several documents in hand. Since the door was opened, he

came right in. In the next moment, John lifted his gaze and looked at him. “Check in with Roselia and look into the

progress of things recently.”

Zack froze for a moment before he nodded. Initially, he appeared a touch flippant, but now, he became entirely

serious. “I had someone asking around about the shadow bank, and it’s said that they keep a very low profile. When

they lend someone money, they never lend a huge amount.

It seems that there’s a limit. Regardless of the borrower’s financial standing, he or she can’t take out a loan for

more than the limit. I think it’s really something else considering the magnitude of its operation.”

Pursing his lips, John nodded. “Put in more effort henceforth in investigating this matter.”

When Sophia woke up, it was already afternoon. She lazed in bed for a while, recalling how she came home. After

staring at the ceiling for some time, she then heard a voice drifting over from the courtyard. The window was open,

so sounds from the courtyard could be heard loud and clear.

She recognized John’s voice at once, but she didn’t go over for a look, merely lying there and listening. He must be

conversing with someone from the office since it’s all about work. She didn’t quite understand, nor was she

particularly interested in doing so.

Inhaling deeply a few times, she then snagged her cell phone and went to the hospital’s official webpage to check

the results of the blood test. However, the results weren’t out since it wasn’t time yet. She sighed, uncertain about

what she hoped the results would be.

As she waited while gripping her phone in her palm, it suddenly rang. Squinting, Sophia glanced at it. It’s an

unknown number, but it’s the same area code as that woman’s number. As expected, she probably realized that

she has been blacklisted, so she’s now calling with a different number. She sneered and threw her phone aside.

Getting up, she then went to the bathroom to wash her face before going downstairs.
