Chapter 203


    It was rare for Sophia to see him in such a casual outfit, as he was always in a hurry while in her


    presence. As she entered the living room, Sophia asked while taking off her shoes, “You have not


    eaten, have you?”


    John turned to stare at her momentarily before grunting in the affirmative, while the reflection on his


    sses obscured the expression in his eyes. Thus, into the kitchen she went to retrieve some veggies


    from the fridge. The soup he brought homest night was gone, so he had either consumed it or


    poured it down the drain. She turned around to begin cooking after retrieving all that she needed.


    Meanwhile, John put hisptop away before taking off his sses, then he pinched the space in


    between his brows as he walked toward the kitchen to stand by the entrance. “I’ll be leaving for the


    Constance Residence in a bit, so you won’t have to cook my portion of the meal.”


    “Alright, got it.” Her hands were in constant movement even as she gave him an answer. John then


    turned to pack up his stuff on the sofa, and it wasn’t long before Sophia heard the sounds of his car


    leaving when she was halfway through preparing her meal. All she did was let out a snicker as she


    went on with cooking.


    It was never her n to cook avish meal, as John’s presence made no difference. She ate her meal


    after preparing it, then cleaned everything up before lying down in bed. A quick scroll through the online


    news revealed the constant fluctuation of information, as the scandal regarding the Constances were


    no longer a hot topic.


    She let out another sneer before heaving a long sigh. Being rich sure has its benefits. It means you can


    always either hire a bunch of ghostwriters, or remove your search results from the option bar, so you


    can easily manipte information regarding you.


    After doing some reading for her driving test, she nned on taking a nap, but her phone rang before


    she fell asleep. A string of numbers appeared without its caller ID, which she recognized to belong to


    Mrs. Constance. It was an odd incident, as Mrs. Constance never called her. Sophia picked up


    nheless, but she chose to remain silent. Neither did Mrs. Constance speak, but she could hear


    voices from the other side of the line, which sounded like the chatter of a man and a woman.


    Sophia chuckled as she realized what was happening. After tailing the Baileys and eavesdropping on


    them, she knew Isabelle would be going to the Constance Residenceter on. John was also travelling


    back to the ce, which was indicative of what would happen, so Sophia wondered how she did not


    see thating. However, she didn’t hang up; instead, she simply listened on as she left the phone by


    her pillow.


    Mrs. Constance must have tucked the phone in some secluded ce, as aside from Isabelle’s


    asional chuckles, she couldn’t actually hear what was said through the call, but it was proof enough


    that conversation seemed to flow easily. John’s voice would join in once in a while, which also sounded


    light-hearted.


    Using the noises from the call as a luby, Sophia shut her eyes and soon dozed off. She didn’t know if


    Mrs. Constance said anything afterward, nor did she know when the call ended. She slept for a whole


    two hours, only to wake up to a darkening sky that indicated an uing downpour.


    Sophia went into the yard to move her nts around before settling down in the living room. There was


    a message from Mr. Reyes on her phone which asked to meet her when she would be free in order to

    sign the contract.


    Upon checking the weather, Sophia told him that she could do that immediately. Thendlord seemed


    to be in a hurry as he replied that he would drive over to the shop, so they could sign the contract over


    there.


    After replying in the affirmative, Sophia hailed a cab with an umbre in hand after locking the door.


    Sure enough, rain began pouring when she was on her way to the shop. The cab pulled over by the


    dessert shop, wherein thendlord was already there.


    Sophia walked into it under her umbre to meet up with thendlord, who had the contract ready.


    Upon thinking about it, Sophia snapped a photo of the contract, which she then sent to Zack, as she


    was afraid that Mr. Reyes might have dug another trap for her.
