Chapter 1063


    After seeing John’s agitated reaction, Owen stood up in a panic. “Hey, wait!” Nevertheless, John stomped off with Sophia, ignoring Owen


    who was calling out to him. Meanwhile, Old Mrs. Constance sat on the couch with a darkened look just as Owen awkwardly met her gaze.


    “That’s not what I meant, Mom! You guys are getting the wrong idea!”


    Wrong idea or not, you can’t take back your words anymore. Disappointed with Owen and his wife, Old Mrs. Constance lectured both of


    them. “I don’t understand what you both are doing. Must you both always give everyone a headache? Dn is a grown man, so stop treating


    him like a kid. He is mature enough to make his own life decisions. As for you, Jennifer, do you really think we’re too dumb to read between


    the lines when you threw those hints at Sophia? Do you know that you’re only making Dn feel even more awkward?”


    Upon hearing that, Lady Jennifer was instantly tongue-tied as she guiltily rubbed her hands. In the meantime, Samuel only watched aside in


    silence until it was the right time for him to speak. Then, he changed the subject and said, “Owen, I’m sure you want to restore peace in your


    family, so this is the time for you to let go. Dn is old enough to make his own decisions, and you guys need to treat him as an adult, not a


    child. You’re only going to get on his nerves for interfering with his every decision.”


    In response, Owen nodded. Then, in a much softer voice than earlier, he said, “Alright, I heard you.”


    On the other hand, Sophia and John returned to the main building and entered the dining area. Then, Sophia had the maid serve her another


    te of hot food before she started eating. Even though she didn’t take that matter to heart, John’s anger got the better of him. He was seen


    picking up the fork and spoon shortly before he put them down on the table again.


    Sophia looked askance at him.


    “Seriously?” Impressed with Sophia’s magnanimity, John said, “How can you remain so calm?” “Why should I get worked up over it? This


    has nothing to do with me at all. My conscience is clear, and I don’t give two hoots about what other people think of me,” Sophia replied with


    a smile. She knew that the matter would have escted further if she had poked her nose in it. For that, she decided to say nothing about it,


    deeming silence as the best way to deal with it. John stared at Sophia for a while andughed all of a sudden. “Maybe you’re right.” Then, he


    picked up the fork and knife once more. “What am I doing? Losing my appetite over something so trivial. It’s not worth it.” After the meal,


    Old Mrs. Constance still hadn’t returned, so Sophia and John decided to head upstairs first. Then, John changed his clothes and made his way


    to the study. Meanwhile, Sophia didn’t bother asking him what he would be doing, for she knew that he would probably be busy until the


    night. Therefore, she sat on the bed and scrolled her phone before she received a call from Logan. Sounding a little tipsy, Logan bbered


    loudly on the other side as he asked what Sophia was doing. Sophia was slightly surprised by Logan’s tone as she asked, “What’s the matter


    with you? Are you in a bad mood now? Did Miss Hunt give you an attitude again?” Logan replied with a haughty snort and said, “Nothing to


    do with her! In fact, I’ll never get upset because of her!” Yeah, yeah. Keep telling yourself that, Logan. Sophia brushed him off with an


    indifferent grunt before she showed her concern toward her friend. “You don’t sound too happy. Do you want to tell me your problem?”


    Rather than calling it showing concern for her friend, she just wanted to get some gossip material from him. .Original from N?velDrama.Org.
