In a nutshell, Lynett explained what was discussed over the Internet. She mentioned that it was wise of Sophia to have stepped up and explained on behalf of John.
At the very least, things had turned for the better.
“Regarding this incident, it will be wise to settle as it is. You’ve done your part by explaining, so you don’t need to be bothered by the comments over the Internet. Besides,
there might be a backlash if you spoke too much.”
“Alright, I understand.” Sophia nodded.
Turning her gaze toward Ian, Lynett said, “I heard you’ve started working at the Morgan Group. How’s everything? Have you gotten used to it already?”
“To be honest, I haven’t adapted to it yet. There’s still so much stuff I do not know of,” Ian replied with a smile.
Hearing that, Logan was all hyped up and moved closer toward Lorraine. “Lorraine, didn’t you mention investing in a talent show? Why not consider Ian? I think he’ll be great.”
With that, Sophia immediately turned to look at Lorraine.
Surprised, Lorraine gazed at Ian. “Do you wish to participate in the talent show? You’re not planning to work?”
Before Ian could reply, Logan had replied on his behalf, “He’s quitting for sure! If he can be an artist, who needs the Morgan Group? Besides, Sean is the head of the company.
Instead of working under Sean, Ian might as well find another path that suits him better.”
Previously, Lorraine had heard Ian sing and thought he inherited his talents from his mother. His voice was unique, and he was really natural in expressing the song.

If he would participate in the talent show, he would indeed perform really well.
Upon thinking about it, Lorraine nodded her head in approval. “If you participate in the talent show, I’ll guarantee that you can be one of the top.”
For such an investment, most of the top-notch entertainment companies would recommend their own candidates to participate in the competition. Thus, it wouldn’t be difficult
for Lorraine to put Ian forward.
Then again, if there was a strong competitor in the talent show, it would be difficult for them to place Ian up to the top by force because it might stir up a negative effect.
Hence, she dared not promise the moon.
Seeing that Ian was hesitating, Sophia gave him a nudge on the leg. “Give it a try! I’m sure you can do it!” she encouraged.
Without replying, Ian smiled.
“There’s no need to rush because the program has yet to be confirmed. You still have a little more time to think about it. Once you have made up your mind, feel free to
contact me,” suggested Lorraine, a smile on her face.
Once again, before Ian could reply, Sophia acted like Logan and answered on his behalf, “Great! We’ll contact you once we have come to a decision.”
“It’s nice to see the three of you getting along so well together,” beamed Lorraine.
Really? Sophia thought they got along pretty well, too.
During mealtime, there was a variety of food served on the table, and Sophia couldn’t even name some of the dishes.
Flustered, Sophia thought of the time when she had a meal with John.
She was afraid that she would do anything wrong and humiliate herself.
Taking the seat next to Sophia, Logan said, “Don’t worry. Make yourself at home and help yourself with anything.”
“How I wish I had a little sister instead of this sloppy little brother,” grumbled Lysa.
Without being intimidated by Lysa, Logan started his complaints about her.
Lifting an eyebrow, Sophia gazed at the food on the table.
In comparison with the Constances, both were considered relatively big families, but the atmosphere here with the Jeffersons seemed very different. Though none of the
sisters’ husbands were present today, somehow, Sophia could tell that even with them around, the mood around the house would still be way better than the Constance
Family.
In contrast, regardless of how many family members in the Constance Family, the atmosphere around the house was overall tense.
The only pleasant time she could ever recall was during Mr. Owen’s birthday, wherein everyone had plastered a smile on their face only when she tried to liven up the
atmosphere.
Gazing at Old Mr. Jefferson and the four Young Ladies of the Jefferson Family, Sophia thought everyone here got along with each other really well.
