Chapter 862


    Logan was baffled by what Ian meant, so he asked in surprise, “What’s wrong? Did you not perform


    well? That shouldn’t be the case because I heard from my sister that she’d make sure you secure a


    good ranking.”


    Nheless, Ian only responded with a nonchnt chuckle as he guzzled down the ss of wine. The


    moment he raised his ss, his eyes seemed as if they were filled with destion and helplessness,


    but when he put it down, the look on his face went back to an indifferent expression.


    Meanwhile, Sophia pretended as if she didn’t understand what was going on, only looking down at the


    dish while eating it. Deep down, she thought this dinner would be a torment to someone else but soon


    realized that she could no longer stand the drama. While the men idled around in their casual chat,


    Sophia headed to the couch and sat there with Robin and Matilda.

    At the same time, Richard cast his eyes on Matilda and took them off shortly after that, only to be


    noticed by William, who happened to be staring at him. Refusing to give up in the mental game, he met


    William’s gaze with a cial re. While William’s gaze seemed rather apathetic, he appeared as if he


    was demonstrating his authority to Richard.


    Unhappy, Richard started to make his move by raising his ss before William. “I’ve heard a lot about


    you, Mr. Constance. Let’s have a toast!” Meanwhile, William didn’t flinch but instead raised his ss as


    well and toasted Richard. Then, both men guzzled down their wine and showed each other their empty


    sses.


    As the men continued to dilly-dally, Sophia eventually ran out of patience and returned to Logan’s


    clubhouse with Robin and Matilda. Feeling slightly worried, Matilda went to William before leaving the


    room. After she seemingly whispered in William’s ear, he looked up at her with a smile and told her not


    to worry. A few momentster, she approached Richard and courteously told him to enjoy himself


    because she didn’t want him to feel left out. It was only then that she finally walked out of the room with


    Sophia.


    As soon as the door was closed, Sophia heaved a sigh of relief with augh. “Oh gosh! You have no


    idea how terribly I was suffering back there. Look at what they’ve done to a dinner that was supposed


    to be rxing and enjoyable! I felt so awkward at a few points back there when those few gentlemen


    kept interrupting each other. Ugh! Why can’t they stop fighting each other?! Maybe I really shouldn’t


    have invited John along!”


    Matilda soon echoed Sophia’s words and said, “Well, I shouldn’t have invited Richard toe along


    either. If I had known we’d end up in this awkward situation, I would have just turned him down from the


    beginning.” Upon hearing Matilda’s reply, Sophia didn’t botherparing the two scenarios, even


    though she reckoned the atmosphere was more awkward with William and Richard. They are two fully


    grown middle-aged men, so how could they still behave so childishly?! That really blows my mind


    away!


    As soon as thedies made it to the room at Logan’s clubhouse, Sophia tiredly copsed onto the


    couch, whereas Matilda was absorbed in Robin’s invitation card. With her eyes finally glued to the


    wedding photo of Robin and Lincoln, she said, “You both genuinely make a perfect match! Look at how


    sweet you are!”


    Robin smiled and said, “Yeah, that’s what many people say.”


    Matilda then stared at Robin for a while andplimented her. “Actually, I know you’re a good person.”


    In that instant, Robin was overwhelmed by a strong surge of mixed feelings, which she couldn’t even


    exin herself. In the meantime, Sophia was lying on the couch, talking about Robin’s wedding until


    she unknowingly dozed off.
