Chapter 135


    John didn’t even bother to put on a fa?ade, his face devoid of expression. Panic swamped President


    McCaw at his indifference. Extending a leg, he stuck it between the elevator doors. The elevator doors


    were gradually closing, but they then slowly opened upon sensing the obstruction.


    He looked at John with a smile on his face. “President Constance, let’s talk nicely, okay? I think there’s


    a misunderstanding between us, so I came all the way here to exin the matter.”


    “A misunderstanding?” John sneered, “Didn’t you contact the media for an exclusive exposé?”


    President McCaw froze. Never would I have thought that John Constance could have found out about


    this so quickly. I’ve just contacted the media yesterday and hadn’t even said anything, merely the fact


    that I’ve got an exclusive exposé about him.


    I was just thinking about using the media to stir up a scandal if I truly couldn’t reach an agreement with


    him, but the news has actually gotten to him in the blink of an eye. But that makes sense. After all, the


    media will side with the more influential person.


    His expression turned embarrassed. “President Constance, this matter can’t be exined in just a


    sentence or two, so let’s find a ce and talk at length. What do you think?” Mortification flooded him


    as everyoneing and going stared at them.


    “I’m not interested.” After saying that, John took two steps toward the elevator doors and butted his leg


    out with a light kick. Then, he closed the elevator doors again. As the elevator ascended, his


    expression was terrifyingly grim, his entire aura going frosty.


    Upon exiting the elevator, he went to his office. The first thing he did after sitting down was to summon


    Zack in via the inte. Zack eagerly jogged over. “How was it? What happened?


    Did something happen when you went back to meet Sophia at noon…” Before he’d finished speaking,


    he swallowed the rest of his words at the sight of John’s forbidding expression. He then blinked. “Er…


    boss, what do you need me to do?”


    John crossed his hands and rested them on the desk. “President McCaw is downstairs. It doesn’t seem


    as though he’ll be leaving immediately, so call the security and have him kicked out.”


    “President McCaw from Infinity Group?” Zack’s eyes bugged. “He has the temerity toe here?


    Didn’t he already contact the media?” John said nothing. Zack rubbed his hands. “Sure, sure, I’ll go and


    call the security at once to kick this person out. What a piece of trash!” He then pivoted and left.


    Only then did John lean back against his chair and heaved a sigh of relief. I’ve never been a person


    who allows others to control me. In my entire life, yesterday was the only time I’ve ever been


    ckmailed, and that person was Sophia Gwendolyn.


    Nheless, I can’t do anything about that since I was at fault in the matter, nor can I me her.


    However, others certainly aren’t allowed to do that. No one else can do so.


    Zack was efficient, and he came back in no time to say that everything had been settled. John was


    then busy throughout the entire afternoon.


    Midway, William came and asked whether he was nning on going back home at night, upon which


    John remembered Mrs. Constance’s words during the phone call. “I might need to make a trip back. It


    happens that I’ve still got some things at home, so I’ll take them when I leave.”


    William nodded. “Don’t worry about your mother. She’s just throwing a tantrum and will be fine after a

    few days.”


    John looked up at him. “Dad, you’re really good to my mother.”


    William was startled for a moment before he smiled. He was usually a gentle person, so his smiles


    were also a fair urrence. At this moment, his expression was merely a tad more bashful. “Your


    mother is a great person. She’s just a little childish. Well, all humans have their shorings, so a


    couple should tolerate each other.”


    Lowering his gaze, John nodded and said nothing further. When William had left, he pursed his lips and


    narrowed his eyes. Tolerate each other? This is actually rather difficult to do. If someone has no


    feelings for the other person, it’ll only be forbearance instead of tolerance. My personality is different


    from his, so I can’t do it.


    Actually, Sophia is quite good. Now that I’m thinking about it, she’s indeed pleasant. She doesn’t have


    any major ws, and on second thought, she even has quite a number of merits. He spaced out as he


    recalled Sophia’s various actions these days.
