Chapter 440
Furthermore, those people are always stealing nces at her. Just look if you want to; why the need to
act so sneakily? Sophia sneered silently.
Turning to Logan, Dn said, “I met your dad earlier and he seems to be looking for you, but I don’t
know why.”
Logan nodded in acknowledgement. Prior to this, his father made it clear that he would be introducing
some important figures to him on this day, and he even reminded him to go over to his table to offer a
toast during mealtime. However, Logan couldn’t be bothered to go over. So, it was only expected that
he would be looking for him now, either to introduce all kinds of people to him, or to give him a lecture.
The former seems like a bigger possibility, he thought.
ncing at Logan, Sophia suggested, “Why don’t you look for him to check it out? I hope it’s not
something important.”
In such matters, even if it was unimportant to Logan, it was most probably imperative to his father.
Thus, after contemtion, he stood up to leave. “I’ll check it out to see if it’s really anything important.
Both of you stay here and don’t go anywhere. I’ming back soon.”
After hearing Sophia’s ‘mm hmm’ as a reply, he then left briskly.
“You came together with Logan?” Dn asked Sophia.
Sophia nodded and then felt a little conflicted. “Actually, I’m regretting it now because it’s really boring
here.”
Understanding what she meant, he uttered, “I’m regretting it as well. I wanted to leave earlier, but felt
that it seemed a little impolite.”
Widening her eyes, she gushed, “So we’re having the same thought!”
Dn cracked up. “I think we have simr opinions on some issues, Miss Gwendolyn.”
“Yeah, I think so, too,” she said in agreement.

Meanwhile, on the dance floor, Isabelle started a conversation with John. “I wonder if I said the right
things in the media interview earlier.”
John hesitated before assuring her, “I think you did well. Your reaction was quick.”
Giggling, she unconsciously inched closer to him, but it was a barely noticeable distance. “I don’t really
know how to handle the media actually, but at that time, I thought that some misunderstandings from
before could be resolved if I just exined things a little.”
“Hmm,” John mumbled and didn’t say anything else.
After a short pause, Isabelle tried again. “Previously, I wanted to go to yourpany to discuss a detail
in the new supply contract. In the end, I scrapped the idea because of the incident on the Inte. I
was afraid that it might cause you trouble.”
“Oh, really?” he replied curtly and perfunctorily.
Pursing her lips, Isabelle decided not to say anything anymore.
When the song ended, John moved over to where the seats were and grabbed a juice, scanning
around for Sophia and Logan. Sweeping his eyes over at the dance floor, he couldn’t find them there as
well.

Looks like they went outside.
Catching up next to him, Isabelleplimented, “Mrs. Constance told me that you dance well. Looks
like she’s right.”
“She told me about you as well. You dance very well too,” he said with a smile.
Isabelle took a seat andmented, “I learned it when I was young because my family forced me to. Not
only that, I had to learn everything and I kinda hated it. Looking back now, it seems like I never stopped
learning when I was younger.”
This caught John by surprise. “I thought you liked it.”
On the surface, it seemed like she really enjoyed such a life, but she shook her head. “I don’t like it at
all because it’s too constraining.”
Suddenly, she recalled that day when John went to her house to cancel the engagement and she
chased after him to find out why. At that time, her family had stopped her and her mom even pped
her out of anger, saying that she was humiliating her family with her actions.
Having the engagement annulled was already an embarrassing thing, and yet, she added on to the
embarrassment by acting so reluctant to let go.
