Chapter 446


    That was why she wasn’t pleased with the fact that they both seemed rather close now.


    From the look in Kate’s eyes as she nced at the set of jewelry, it didn’t seem like she was reluctant


    to give it away at all. “What a waste that I’ve kept this in my collection for decades. If I had taken it out


    earlier, maybe it could still be worn by some youngsters, which is much better than just keeping it at the


    back of my closet.”


    Sophia was unsure how she should react to that. Although the jewelry was priceless, it was not the


    best-looking essory, either. There was no way she would wear it out on the streets, for sure.


    Once again, Kate held her hand. “A few days ago, the Oracle said that if the divination lot turned out to


    be auspicious today, then it means that I would have met my benefactor. Looks like you’re my


    benefactor now, Miss Gwendolyn.”


    Shocked, she quickly refuted, “No, no, no. I just picked it out randomly. It turned out to be auspicious


    because the ckwells are a blessed family. It’s got nothing to do with me.”


    Her humble words were pleasing to the ears, and John eyed her suspiciously. Ever since the divorce, it


    seemed like she had smartened up and became more eloquent now.

    Meanwhile, the more Kate looked at Sophia, the more she liked her. In contrast to that, Sophia was


    having goosebumps from her stare.


    At Kate’s age, she never kept up with the gossip as she had already lost interest in it. Adding on to the


    fact that she had been unwell recently and thepany had run into some trouble, she was not in the


    mood to bother herself with outside issues at all. Hence, she had no idea what happened between


    Sophia and John.


    After staring at her for a while, she asked directly, “Do you have a boyfriend, Miss Gwendolyn?”


    Stunned, Sophia didn’t understand what Kate meant for a moment. How did the conversation jump to


    this topic so suddenly?


    Even Belinda found the situation to be a little awkward. Previously during Sophia and John’s wedding,


    Kate had actually attended it. But now it seemed like she had forgotten Sophia’s looks. For a person


    who didn’t follow the news and gossip, it was only natural that she didn’t know about Sophia’s


    background.


    As Sophia opened her mouth, the corner of her eyes caught John staring at her, and she simply


    replied, “Yes.”


    Surprised and disappointed, Kate asked, “You do?”


    Next to them, John was surprised as well and seemed unhappy. Without second thoughts, he asked as


    well, “You do? Who?”


    Chuckling, she answered, “There’s someone whom I fancy.” It hadn’t been long since her divorce, so it


    was impossible for her to have a boyfriend now, or else she wouldn’t be able to exin the timeline of


    events. However, when she saw John’s jaw tightened, she felt a little delighted and continued, “I like


    this guy who treats me pretty well, but I don’t have the guts to tell him yet.”


    Kate’s head bobbed slowly. “Well, well, it’s normal for a girl your age to have someone you like.” In a


    disappointed voice, she added, “What a shame. I was still thinking if I would have the chance to be a


    family with such a nice girl.”


    Taken aback, Sophia waved her hand hastily. “It’s me who doesn’t have this good fortune.”


    With a sigh, Kate said, “That’s okay. It’s fine even if we can’t be a family. Here, let’s sit down and talk.”


    Since Kate wasn’t young anymore, it was considered quite a feat for her to be standing so long.


    Belinda went to take her hand. “Let’s take a seat over there, Kate,” she said, meaning the row of


    couches not far away from them, and the bunch of them went over to the couches.


    In just a couple of steps, John was next to Sophia, and he whispered, “Who’s the guy you like?”


    Casting him a ridiculous look, she spat, “It’s not you anyway, so don’t stick your nose into this.”


    Slipping past him, she went over to Dn and asked him, “What do you think of the jewelry set? With


    those designs, I think only selected outfits and makeup could match with them, but I don’t think I can


    bring out the effects. It will definitely look like fake jewelry if I wear it.”
