Chapter 442
The edges of Dn’s lips curled up. “Yeah, I can’t catch a break at all.” Then, he added, “It’s really
annoying that there are so many people from the media present today.”
Surprised, Sophia had the idea that he wanted to mention something to her with thatst statement, so
she pursed her lips. “Yeah,” she mumbled, unsure of what else to say.
Meanwhile, Logan didn’t return and neither did he give her a call. So, she continued to stay in the
lounge with Dn because the both of them preferred not to be involved with the excitement outside
and they felt morefortable to be here.
They were actually not especially close with each other, and it was only after her divorce with John that
they chat more often. But Dn gave people a good vibe, and she didn’t feel awkward being around
him. Hence, they sat there until they heard noises from the banquet hall. After ncing at the time, he
said, “There’s probably a program going on. Let’s take a look.”
Thinking that it was time for the lucky draw, Sophia stood up and followed him. “Sure.”
Everything at the dining area had ended and everyone was now at the banquet hall, which had a small
stage and several priests were on it.
Supported by another person, Kate ckwell walked onto the stage looking very energetic and
cheerful. Also, arge wooden chest stood next to her. When Sophia went to the banquet hall, she
immediately saw that Old Mrs. Constance, Belinda, was beaming next to Kate. They seemed really
close as they held each other’s hand. Standing at the back of the crowd, she turned to Dn and
asked, “Are Mrs. ckwell and Mrs. Constance good friends?”
“Yes.” Dn nodded. “It’s said that they have been friends since young. Although they are a few years
apart in age, it didn’t bother their friendship at all.”
Sophia smiled. Then, someone suddenly came over. “Where were you before this?” John asked.
Startled, she twisted her head to his direction, and the smile on her face disappeared the next second.
Ignoring himpletely, she turned her attention back on the stage.
On the stage, Kate stated that they had invited the priests as well as a renowned oracle over, and
divination lots were in the chest. In just a couple of minutes, they would be carrying out the lucky draw,
and the first prize winner could get a divination lot here, where the oracle would decipher the meaning
behind it.

Even though Sophia didn’t recognize the name of the oracle, she could guess that he seemed to be
someone famous from the surprised gasps around her when Kate mentioned his name. The lucky draw
itself wasn’t soplicated as the invitation cards were numbered and anyone with the drawn number
on their card would be the winner. Since Sophia had the invitation given to her by Logan, she flipped it
to the back and saw that it was indeed numbered. Moving closer to Dn, she asked, “May I see your
number?”
Dn took out his invitation and showed it to her while John gave them the stink eye next to Sophia.
Isabelle hade over as well. “John, let me see what’s your number.” Without even giving a single
nce to his invitation, he handed it to her.
The ckwells already had the numbers written on small pieces of paper, and those papers were
ced in a giant, transparent ball as lots. With Belinda holding her, Kate went to the ball and picked out
three pieces from a small gap.
On the other side of the stage, they had disyed the prizes; the third prize was a painting with
calligraphy, while the second was a ss vase and the first prize was a set of jewelry. After taking a
look at the prizes, Sophia could neither understand nor appreciate any of it. Even the jewelry, which
was made of emerald and not diamonds, didn’t look exactly pretty in her eyes.
