When Old Mr. Bailey hung up the call, Isabelle turned around and returned to her office. With her thoughts all

jumbled up, she plunged into her seat and scowled.

Dad didn’t speak much over the phone just now, so I can’t really pinpoint what their secret plan is. But from how

they kept the plan from me, I swear they’re up to no good.

After sitting for a while, she rose from the chair, picked up her bag, and left the company. She headed straight to

Constance Company instead of buying a gift or sending messages to tell everyone that she had booked another

restaurant.

Without going in, she parked her car across the road and gazed at the company’s entrance. Since it was working

time, only a few people passed through the door.

A long time later, the person she wanted to meet never appeared. After giving it a thought, she fished out her

phone and called John, but he never answered it no matter how long the ringtone sounded. She wasn’t sure

whether he was busy or he just didn’t want to pick up her call. Even she was aware that she had been overly

pestering him recently. He must be sick of me by now.

In the evening, Logan returned to the clubhouse as he went upstairs while cursing. Earlier, Sophia and Matilda had

invited two more servants over to continue playing poker. Although no money was involved, the four of them were

deep in the moment.

When Logan stepped into the room with a long face and saw the four joyful poker players, his fury suddenly

subsided. Catching a glimpse of him, Sophia inquired, “What’s wrong? Why the long face? It’s hard to believe that

someone could make you so angry.”

Logan hummed and took a seat beside her. “It’s no big deal. I just came across some annoying people.”

Without probing further, Sophia refocused on the game. After sitting for a while, Logan appeared to be in an

uneasy state as he repeatedly crossed his legs, and he obviously never paid attention to the game.

In the middle of the game, Sophia asked him if she should make a certain move. After being asked, he came to his

senses, but he didn’t even know what her question was. His expression amused Sophia. “What happened to you?

You’re so unlike your usual self.”

Embarrassed, Logan smirked and assured her that everything was alright before rising from the chair. “It’s a little

sulky in here. I’ll go out for a walk.”

Sophia looked around the room. The windows were open, no one was smoking, and the air felt pleasant, so there

was no need for him to go out to breathe some fresh air. However, she still said with a smile, “Alright, go ahead and

have some alone time to ponder on the issue.”

Letting out a sigh, Logan stepped out of the room. With her head lowered, Matilda remarked, “Something is

wrong.”

Sophia was caught off guard. “You mean my move?”

“No. I mean something is wrong with the man who just went out.” Matilda laughed.

Sophia grunted. “There’s indeed something going on with him, but don’t worry. He’ll tell us about it later.”

When Logan was done smoking, the poker game in the room was over. Two servants came out of the room and

greeted Logan. Normally, he would make a grunt in response, but he just ignored them now.

Walking over, Sophia leaned against the door frame and stared at him. “Come in. I’m sure you have something to

tell us.”

Logan snorted. “No, I believe there’s nothing I need to tell you.”

Despite what he had said, he shuffled into the room. Facing away from Logan, Matilda stood by the window.
