Indeed, Lola is no different from Sophia; both of them are mistresses of the family. Thus, Logan and John had no
room to resist at all. After a while, Logan brought up Ian, saying that Ian was swamped with work now. He related
how Ian didn’t seem to have any rest when they’d followed him around to a few cities, merely having taken half a
day to go out and play tourist with them in the beginning before the rest of his time was all filled with work.
John nodded. “His career has just taken off, so he indeed has to seize the opportunity while his fame and resources
are there.”
“Ian has an assistant. I’ve seen her a few times, and I think she’s quite good.” As Logan said this, he couldn’t help
stealing a glance at Sophia out of the corner of his eyes.
Sophia chortled. “You’re acting anxious on his behalf.”
I guess I’m indeed anxious on his behalf. I didn’t really think about it when I was single, but now that I’ve got a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtfamily, I just feel as though I’ve abandoned him. It feels like he’s been left out. Beside him, Lola couldn’t resist
adding, “He’s just like an old father now. Whenever a girl appears around Ian, he feels that she’s a possible
candidate for him.”
Logan didn’t deny that he indeed harbored such a thought. There hasn’t been any woman around Ian so far, so
that assistant is truly a possibility. If I were to list all the women around him in the many years I’ve known him, it’d
been Sophia alone in the past whom he then fell in love with. Thus, now that another woman has appeared, I think
he’ll probably fall for her, too.
At this time, the little guy in the crib at the side who didn’t have any attention showered upon him started wailing.
The postnatal caregiver hurried over and scooped the child up. “This kid wants to join in the fun at such a young
age.” Sure enough, when she’d carried him over to Sophia and the others, he stopped crying after being
surrounded by people, his eyes darting around. Matilda took the child from her. “Kids nowadays are prematurely
smart. I don’t think kids back then matured so quickly.” Sophia was still leaning against John. “It’s good that he’s
smart since he’ll encounter fewer tribulations.” John’s head snapped to the side, and he stared at her. “You talk as
though you’ve encountered many tribulations.” “That’s the truth,” Sophia countered. “Let me tell you all, I had a
dream last night. I dreamt of the time when I first married John. He didn’t even spare me a glance when he came
home from work, nor did he eat any of the food I cooked for him. Ah, it just plain ticked me off!” John’s eyes
widened. “I was just wondering why she threw a tantrum upon waking up in the morning. I asked her what
happened, but she refused to say a single word.” Ignoring him, Sophia continued, “I even dreamed of the time
when he asked me for a divorce.” Logan was a tad nosy, so he quickly asked, “How did the two of you negotiate
when you divorced back then?” I wonder how John and Sophia brokered their divorced the first time. Actually, I
simply blurted it out.

John didn’t prepare any script beforehand, or perhaps he didn’t find it necessary to make any advance
preparations. At that time, Old Mr. Constance had just passed away some time ago, so the atmosphere at home
was rather tense. Matilda was also quite the troublemaker back then, always picking fault with Sophia. On the other
hand, Sophia was timid and dared not say a single word in protest. That night, John went home rather early and sat
in the garden for a while after dinner before going upstairs. Sophia had already washed up and was sitting on the
bed while looking at the cell phone in her hand. When he pushed open the door and saw her, he didn’t really have
any specific thought in mind, but the moment he opened his mouth, he asked for a divorce. In fact, I still remember
what I said back then. He was leaning against the door frame with his arms crossed and stared at Sophia who was
on the bed. “I’ve got something to discuss with you.” Then, he distinctly saw her jolting. Hence, when he later
recalled that scene countless times, he felt that Sophia had known what he wanted to say back then. Sophia looked
up at him. “What is it?” John’s voice was placid. “Let’s get a divorce.” “What?” Sophia asked again.
