Sophia directly took over the phone and said, “Give it to me. I’ll reply to her for you.”
Isabelle wasn’t stupid. If Matilda said she wasn’t angry at all, Isabelle definitely wouldn’t believe it. Therefore,
Sophia replied that ‘Matilda’ was a little disappointed in her.
Isabelle didn’t call but simply continued texting, saying that what she did wasn’t intentional, but she later realized
that her behavior was indeed inappropriate. So, she wanted to ask Matilda, Sophia, and John out for a meal in order
to personally explain the matter to them.
Sophia looked at Matilda, grinning. “She’s inviting us three for a meal. Why do I have a feeling that she’s trying to
take us all down in one clean sweep?”
Although it was very untimely, Matilda still smiled. “Then, do you think we should agree to it?”
Sophia thought for a while before replying to Isabelle that they were quite busy now and suggested they plan for
another time. Therefore, Isabelle didn’t continue to pester either. She only said that she would invite them again in
a couple of days. It was obvious that she was unwilling to give up.
Since Isabelle acted like that, Sophia felt that she had some ulterior motive. Isabelle is such a supercilious woman.
How can I believe that she simply wants to apologize?
Sophia handed the phone back to Matilda. “She’ll look for you again in a couple of days. By that time, you should
agree to the meal. I’d like to see what tricks that b*tch has up her sleeve this time.”
After being informed, Matilda tutted. “In the future, you should watch your language when you speak in front of the

Grinning, Sophia answered, “Yes, ma’am.”
John came back with William at noon. When they entered the door without seeing Sophia and Matilda around, they
asked at the same time, “Where is she?”
Old Mrs. Constance was sitting on the sofa, after which she looked up when she heard their question. “Who are you
asking about? Sophia or Matilda?”
John and William looked at each other. John laughed, while William looked a little awkward. John spoke first. “I was
asking about Sophia. As for my dad, maybe not.”
William lightly coughed twice. “I guess I was asking about the two of them collectively.”
Old Mrs. Constance withdrew her gaze and replied, “They’re upstairs. They said they were a little sleepy, so I let the
two of them rest.”
Learning about where they were, John nodded. “I’ll go up and take a look.”
Old Mrs. Constance did not speak. After standing there for a moment, William hesitated a little before going
upstairs as well.
Sophia and Matilda were indeed in their respective rooms. John saw Sophia as soon as he pushed the door. She was
hugging the quilt and was sound asleep, looking the same as before. Softening his movements, John went to stand
beside the bed.
Sophia was lying on her side. Despite her belly not looking obvious, John still felt that it was looking a lot bigger.
Sitting down slowly, he reached out and touched it, which woke Sophia up. Seeing him, she immediately frowned.
“Why are you so annoying? Must you wake me up the moment you come back?”
Laughing, John said, “It’s lunchtime soon. Get up and wash your face. We’ll go downstairs when you’re ready.”
Having been disturbed by him, Sophia couldn’t sleep anymore. She continued lying on the bed as she stared at the
window. “Isabelle said that she would like to invite us to have a meal and apologize for what happened before.”
Hearing Isabelle’s name, John was immediately irritated. “What does she want to apologize for? The best thing she
can do now is not to appear before any of us.”
“But I’m quite interested in what she has to say.” Sophia smiled.
John turned and leaned against the headboard. He stroked Sophia’s hair, saying, “Let’s not talk about that useless
stuff. Let me ask you this, now that you’ve moved in here, do you want to reconsider our remarriage?”
Sophia burst out laughing. “If that is so, then I’ll move out later. After all, I haven’t brought anything with me, so it’s
easy for me to go back.”
John hurriedly added, “It was just a casual question. Why are you so serious about it?”
