Chapter 161


    Isabelle came prepared with some documents about the details of the coboration and promation


    of rights concerning the Baileys when it came to the contract. John came over and sat down beside


    Sophia, turning into his usual self while working.


    Taking up the documents, he read all the uses. Such a coboration was rather simple, and the


    Baileys didn’t demand anything over the top, so he merely picked out a few uses and proposed his


    opinion.


    Sophia didn’t understand a single word since she knew nothing about business. Even the business


    terms John and Isabelle used went over her head. Thus, she sat at the side with John’s ss still in her


    hand. As she watched them getting engrossed in their discussion, she chuckled soundlessly.

    Well, this is the difference. No wonder Mrs. Constance groused every day that I’m not Isabelle’s match


    and I’m of no help to John. When we sit together and open our mouths, our true capabilities shine


    through. I’m merely glib, while she’s truly capable. This realization had her feeling chagrined.


    Taking a gulp of water, she then brought the ss to John’s lips. “Have some water.” John’s brows


    furrowed slightly, and he turned to look at her. She doesn’t look as though she’s trying to stir up trouble.


    Her expression’s cid. Perhaps it’s just a subconscious action, nothing more. He pursed his lips. After


    a while, he ced his lips on the rim of the ss and took a small, token sip.


    Sophia pulled the ss back, suddenly finding it ridiculous. Who am I trying to upset here? Why does it


    feel as though I’m the unhappiest person at the end of the day? She then ced the ss onto the


    table. Upon seeing that John and Isabelle were immersed in the discussion, she slowly got to her feet


    and went over to John’s desk.


    After searching on hisputer, she found the news reports about John. There had been a


    countermeasure from Infinity Group in the way of a leaked video. It was a snippet of when John


    attended Infinity Group’s bullsh*t party. There were quite a lot of people in the video, seemingly Infinity


    Group’s higher management personnel or the like. Meanwhile, Zack stood beside John. So, they’re


    implying that I actually didn’t attend the party that night.


    Hmm… The corners of her mouth lifted. This isn’t a wise move. This snippet proves the existence of


    CCTV surveince that night, and Infinity Group will be on the losing end once the public calls for the


    entire footage of the event. She didn’t bother to read thements underneath. They probably paid


    people off to write some favorablements, but it won’t help to resolve the problem when the issue


    gains traction and bes a practical joke instead.


    Sophia then scanned through other news reports, but nothing captured her interest. As she did that,


    she kept an eye on the situation between John and Isabelle. The two of them seemed very much


    engrossed, John’s expression solemn as he talked with Isabelle about the specifics of the contract and


    both parties’ boundaries with a document in his hand. She stared in their direction for a long while.


    During a lull, however, Isabelle lifted her eyes and looked over. While her expression wasn’t exactly


    goading, it did carry a hint of derision. She merely stared at Sophia for two seconds before retracting


    her gaze to look at John with a faint smile on her face. However, John didn’t notice anything, his entire


    focus on the document before him.


    This time, Sophia didn’t blow up. John is here, and there’s no concrete evidence, so I’ll be on the losing


    end if I fly into a rage as I did back at Constance Residence. Leaning back in the chair, she mulled it


    over for a while before taking out her cell phone and tapping the camera icon. She pretended to be


    looking at her cell phone, but she kept the camera on Isabelle. After some time, she snorted


    nonchntly.


    Isabelle looked over reflexively, and John naturally threw her a look as well, but perhaps he knew her


    well, so he retracted his gaze after a single nce. However, Isabelle remained staring at her. Shifting


    her cell phone, Sophia smirked and arched an eyebrow at Isabelle, her expression utterly provocative.


    Isabelle’s face turned frosty, and the contempt in her expression deepened. Shedding all pretense, she


    stared at Sophia disdainfully and even sneered, the corners of her mouth curling as she shrugged


    slightly.


    When Sophia spoke in the next moment, her voice waspletely mismatched with the expression on


    her face, mirthful and friendly. “You two are really serious while working, so I took a video.”
