However, everyone acted as if nothing happened, so Sophia could only go along with them and acted as if she hadn’t heard anything.
Sophia felt conflicted during the entire meal. Although she felt uncomfortable, she couldn’t voice it out.
After the meal ended, Sophia accompanied Kate upstairs to talk to her.
This time, there was no one else other than Sophia and Kate as they went into Kate’s bedroom.
After Sophia entered the room, her phone rang, whereupon she sighed in relief before she quickly took her phone out and accepted the call in front of Kate.
Sophia didn’t even bother to check the caller ID.
When the call was connected, John’s voice rang out. “Sophia?”
Sophia was taken aback. “John.”
She purposely raised her volume, and Kate turned around to look at her.
John asked, “Are you done yet? I’ve been waiting outside of your house for a long while already, but you’re still not home yet.”
Sophia acted as if she was surprised. “You’re outside of my house now?! Hang on, I’ll get back right now.”
Shocked, Kate stared at Sophia. “Is that John?”
After hearing Old Mrs. Blackwell’s question, Sophia nodded immediately. “Yeah. It is. He’s waiting outside of my house right now and probably wants to talk to me about

To Sophia’s surprise, Kate reached out for her phone. “Come on. Let me speak with him.”
Sophia was dumbfounded, however, she still gave Kate her phone as the latter asked, “John, why are you looking for Sophia?”
Unable to hear what John replied, Sophia merely saw the lady before her eyes laughing. “You should come over. Come on, I haven’t seen you for a few days now.”
Sophia blinked as she pursed her lips and didn’t say anything.
A few seconds later, Kate hummed in agreement before she gave Sophia her phone back. “You can talk to John now. He’s going to come over soon.”
Sophia let out a quiet sigh before taking her phone back. “John, are you coming over?”
Faced with his ex-wife’s question, he chuckled before explaining, “I’ll go over. I know that the situation is awkward for you right now, so I’ll head there so that you can act
more naturally.”
Sophia initially wanted to take advantage of this phone call to leave this place.
John’s tone was light. “Don’t be anxious. I’m coming over now.”
Then, he hung up.
Sophia had no choice but to place her phone and smile at Kate.
After that, Kate took a photo album and started introducing the Blackwells to Sophia.
I see, so the person who sat next to me just now was the Young Master of the Third Blackwell Family, Fabian Blackwell.
Recalling the Young Master of the Third Blackwell Family’s reaction, he was probably dissatisfied that she was placed under the Third Blackwell Family.
To be honest, I’m dissatisfied as well. How did I end up with a whole new family after finally managing to be alone?
After browsing through the photo album with Kate for a while, John arrived.
John was led upstairs by a servant, and from the looks of it, he had visited the Blackwells a lot in the past.
The servant smiled and informed them when they walked over, “Old Mrs. Blackwell, Young Master John is here.”
Kate immediately exclaimed, “Let him in immediately! I’ve been waiting for a long time now!”
John looked cheerful when he entered the room. “Madam Blackwell, I hope I’m not bothering you.”
Cheerfully, Kate nodded. “We’ve been waiting for you. Come on, have a seat.”
John walked over and sat next to Sophia.
Then, Sophia turned toward him and lowered her voice. “Why did you call me just now? Why did you go to my house?”
John smirked at that as he whispered back, “I didn’t go to your house just now; it was a lie. I knew that you were in some sort of trouble, so I offered to come over to help you
out.”
Sophia was taken aback, for she didn’t know what sort of trick John was trying to pull.
Kate watched as John and Sophia spoke to each other. “You youngsters really have so much more to talk about. I mean, Sophia barely spoke when she was with me but
immediately started talking when you came.”
