Shaking her head, Robin said, “He didn’t hurt me! In fact, nobody did! Even if I was hurt, it was because I forced

myself into a corner by overthinking.” Robin was smiling after having said that. “Alright, let’s switch the topic. What

do you think about the man just now?”

Sophia only saw the man for such a short time, so she couldn’t possibly know anything about him. Therefore, she

could only nod while replying to Robin, “He seems fine at first glance, but your impression of him might change

after you spend more time with him.”

Heaving a sigh, Robin said, “We’ll start slow, then. I really wish that I can have someone by my side, so I sure envy

you.”

Sophia was left feeling a little defeated while leaning over on the countertop. “Don’t you ever feel envious of me, as

I have enough on my plate as it is, and it’s giving me a headache.” Upon saying that, Sophia recalled something

else. “You sent me a message last time telling me that John’s mom came looking for me. Do you know what she is

up to?”

Shaking her head, Robin replied, “I don’t know, as she didn’t explicitly state her purpose. However, she was wearing

a morose expression when she came, which seemed to me a little frightening. She asked where you went, but I told

her I don’t know.”

Robin’s reply left Sophia feeling confused as to what Matilda was trying to do. She couldn’t possibly miss being

scolded by me after not having seen me for a few days, could she?

That afternoon, Sophia stayed in the shop. As she didn’t have much to eat during lunch, she had some snacks

during the afternoon. When there were no customers, Robin would sit down on a chair with her face cupped in her

hands while recounting the man’s habits. Judging from what she said, the man had been dropping by whenever he

could to spend time with Robin.

Sophia listened on with a smile while observing Robin fawn over the man like a schoolgirl in love. Although she

insisted she was seeing him out of fear of loneliness, the inconcealable smile on her face said otherwise. After all, it

was easy for a woman like her to step into a relationship.

As long as someone was willing to treat her nicely as well as make her happy, she would easily fall for him head-

over-heels. In fact, Sophia was a little envious of Robin. She wondered if things would be different if John and her

had spent time knowing each other before their marriage.

Sophia stayed until evening, while Matilda dropped by before it was time to get off work. As soon as she saw Sophia

from the window, Matilda seemed to realize something. Seeing that both John and Sophia returned on the same

day, she figured that both of them must’ve left for somewhere together.

Meanwhile, Sophia arched a brow upon laying eyes on Matilda. It wasn’t long before Matilda entered the shop to sit

down before Sophia. “You left for somewhere with John, didn’t you?”

Sophia took a sip out of her milk. “Nope.”

“No?” Matilda didn’t seem to believe her. “Both of you left and returned at the same time, so how could that not be

the case?”

With slight dismay, Sophia replied, “We didn’t leave together, as John was the one who came after me. I left first,

while he came after me later on. I can do nothing about what he makes of his own life, so don’t you dare accuse

me of seducing him.”

After staring at Sophia for some time, Matilda questioned, “Why are you not serving me any drinks even though I

have been sitting here for a while? Is this how you treat your customers?”

What she said startled both Sophia and Robin. They wore a similar look of confusion as neither knew what Matilda

was up to. Meanwhile, the latter was waiting stubbornly with her arms crossed. With a glance, Sophia signaled for

Robin to make Matilda a cup of coffee. It wasn’t until then that Matilda asked, “Where have you been?”

After mulling over her situation, Sophia told her the truth. “I went back to my hometown to pay my grandfather my
