Not only the matriarch of the Blackwell Family came, but also the Mistress of the Third Blackwell Family and several
other ladies of the same family. Moreover, Old Mrs. Constance was also here.
The living room was full of commotion. Standing at the top of the stairs on the second floor, Sophia’s mind buzzed
when she looked at the goings-on below.
Matilda, who was beside her, patted her on the shoulder. “Warrior, come. To the battlefield you go!”
Sophia went slowly down the stairs. “Old Mrs. Blackwell, you’re here.”
Old Mrs. Blackwell looked at Sophia, then she hurriedly said, “Do come down slowly. Take your time and don’t rush.”
Sophia’s belly was still flat and wasn’t showing anything. Thus, her movements were not affected at all. Seeing Old
Mrs. Blackwell acting like this, Sophia felt a little helpless. Then, she went over and greeted the Mistress of the Third
Blackwell Family politely.
Not bothering to be subtle, that lady glanced at Sophia’s belly and chided, “Look at you. Why didn’t you tell us about
such joyful news?”
Sophia smiled. “It’s still quite early, so I didn’t say anything. I wanted to tell everyone when everything’s more
certain.”
Old Mrs. Blackwell reached out a hand to Sophia, who quickly went over to her. The old woman said earnestly, “I’ve
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtactually gone to a fortune-teller before and he told me that you’re a luck-bringer. This child will be a lucky one as
well; I’m sure of it.”
Sophia chuckled, not knowing what to reply. This kind of ‘fortune’ might have been said to appease the old woman,
and Sophia felt that most people would not believe it.
Old Mrs. Constance chimed in, “Yes, the Great Master’s prophecies will never be wrong.”
Sophia continued to chuckle at that. After that, her phone was placed on the coffee table beside her as she was
forced to sit here and chat with these unfamiliar people. Only after a while did Sophia’s phone vibrate loudly on the
coffee table. Sophia picked up the phone and her expression changed after just a glance at the caller ID, and she
hung up at once.
Next to her, the two old women were still discussing pregnancy matters. When they saw what Sophia did, they were
taken aback. Old Mrs. Constance asked, “What’s going on? Sophia, why didn’t you answer the call?”
Sophia smiled as she put the phone in her pocket. “It was just a harassing call. That’s all.”
Old Mrs. Constance nodded without thinking much about it, but after a while, the phone vibrated again. Sophia
pursed her lips, looking a little upset. Then, she stood up and said, “Please carry on. I’ll go out for a bit to answer it.”
Holding the phone, Sophia went to the courtyard and answered the call. A woman’s laugh came from the other side
of the call at once. “Soph, are you very busy? Why didn’t you answer the phone?”
Sophia suppressed her volume, but her tone was exasperated when she replied, “Since you know that I’m busy and
I can’t answer the phone, why did you call me over and over again?”
The woman paused as if she was feeling awkward, but it was only a few seconds before she laughed again. “You
didn’t speak the last time I called you. Your sister didn’t hear your voice then, so she missed you. We’re hoping to
talk to you now.”
Sophia immediately told her, “I don’t have a sister. Besides, I’ve told you this many times before. We have nothing
to do with each other, so don’t bother me again.”
The woman’s voice became quiet. “Soph, don’t say this. My heart aches at that.”
Who cares if your heart aches? Sophia’s voice was frosty. “Let me tell you that I know what you’re thinking about.
Don’t think for a moment that nobody knows what you and Walter are planning. Dream on! I’ll never recognize you
as my family.”
The voice on the other side sounded heavier. “Soph, I’m your mother. How could you talk to me like that?”
