Chapter 628
Sophia didn’t know Walter well, as she had no memory of him at all. However, the fact that he kept on
quibbling despite being reprimanded by the crowd was indication that he might be a somewhat shady
character.
Besides, Sophia noticed that a savage look shed across Walter’s face when he was riled up after
being reprimanded. If it wasn’t for the fact that he was at a disadvantage, he might very well have
assaulted her on the spot.
Heaving a sigh, Sophia figured that after spending all those years apart from one another, they never
had much of a rtionship to begin with. If things went awry between them, Walter might very well
assault her, which was a cause for hesitation on Sophia’s part.
Meanwhile, John crouched down before her slowly. “Considering the circumstances, I will be worried if I
leave you here alone. Sophia, pleasee with me. Besides, we will also be able to find jobs for the
vigers when we get back. Whoever that wishes toe with us cane. I will take care of
everything when we get there, so you have nothing to worry about.”
Staring at him, Sophia pouted. He reached out to hold her hand. “Judging from what I saw earlier, I
suppose the future will beden with trouble, so you shouldn’t stay here. The vigers won’t be able to
defend you all the time. Mr. Gwendolyn was obviously nning to do this for the long term, which will
leave you in a vulnerable position.”
Sophia recognized what John told her to be true. No matter what he did, he was still legally her father,
so the vigers wouldn’t be able to do much to help if he were to bring it to court. Moreover, she was
pregnant, so she couldn’t possibly butt heads with him. Thus, it only took her a moment beforeing
to a decision. “Alright, we will go back.”
Relief washed over John when he got her reply, because when he came after her, he wasn’t sure if he
could persuade her to return with him. If she were to insist on staying, he could only leave the vige
alone. He couldn’t possibly extend his stay indefinitely, as his work in thepany was piling up while
he kept herpany. The fact that Walter came after her was in fact an encouraging factor for her to
leave.
After that, John had Sophia get some rest before leaving the house. Shey down without question as
she wasn’t intending on asking about his ns. Aside from that, her stomach was making her feel
somewhat ufortable, so she tried to soothe herself by taking a few deep breaths. She also
realized she was being inconsiderate to the child she was carrying by travelling such a long distance in
order to return to her vige.
nor did she know when he came back. When she woke up, John was already cleaning up the house.
As they might not return for a long time, he packed everything that they didn’t need, which made the
house seem more organized. Sophia stood by the door while watching him pack. “Is everything
settled?”
Turning around to look at her, he smiled. “It’s done. I’ve already settled everything regarding the road
paving, as well as finding out the people who would want to leave with us. Buddy is one of them, so he
will help get the other people. After I get the full name list, I will have Zack book their tickets.”
Since they were arge group of people with a lot of luggage in tow, they would be travelling by train.
Meanwhile, Sophia heaved a sigh of relief, as it would be better for her to take a train since she was
pregnant. John worked efficiently, and with everything soon settled, they began discussing the exact
date when everybody would leave.
There would be around eight peopleing with them, which shook up the vige. A lot of people
starteding to Sophia’s house to inquire on the job scope. Not only were the men doing so, but
even the women were considering leaving the vige to make themselves a living, as staying in such a
remote vige would amount to nothing. However, Sophia couldn’t possibly bring everybody with her;
she was but an ordinary human being.
